Charles shrugged, “I didn’t think it was acceptable for a mother to marry their daughters husband,” he teased before changing the topic to focus on Ministry matters for a spree, “I’m failing to see a downside here. I’d see you every day, we’d be working together. What’s not to like? And at least you’d finally believe that I’m in your life for good, Ems” He said half-joking, half-serious (though it was more out of concern that she was still underestimating the strength of their blossoming relationship more than anything).
Of course, they wouldn’t actually see each other all that often. He barely saw most people across all the departments including his own - beyond the aurors of course (oh how he despised those arrogant pricks). He really had a strong disdain for all things auror and the longer he worked for the Ministry, the more he had come to realise it was a good thing he wasn’t an auror. He’d have likely killed them all during training. Not having the right temperament… He supposed that did make sense.
