Kaede scoffed. "Worked with is a strong notion. I just happen to use his skills sometimes since I already knew his name." As much as he hated to admit it, Pietro was a skilled man. Kaede would never work with anyone he didn't respect a little bit, but that didn't mean that Pietro didn't also drive him up a wall.

Pausing, he dragged a hand through his hair, noting that it probably needed a good wash at this point. However, he took the broom that E.v.a offered him, holding it awkwardly away from his body. In hindsight, it was looking like he might have fallen into a wee bit of melodrama. Seriously, he was holding a broom right now. Kaede cleared his throat and tried to answer E.v.a's questions with at least a little bit of rationale. "I suppose he will stop by when he finishes the project I sent him. Since it's Mendoza, a week would be most accurate. I doubt any sooner. The problem is, he never announces his arrival so when he's here, he'll already be at the door!"
