Fallon would've smirked once at seeing JP's nose in a file as it was the complete opposite of her working image of him, but now she was just frustrated by it. Had he noticed her and was pretending otherwise? Fallon thought many choice words of him now, but a coward wasn't on the list. As two ministry employees the odds were they'd have to converse at some point. Hell, his brother was one of her close co-workers. If he wished to visit Gabe he'd have to walk straight past her desk to do so. Was she just going to not exist anymore?

Fallon couldn't help the scoff roll of her eyes when he finally did choose to break the tense silence. Way to state the obvious. "Thought they fixed this issue back in April," she replied but kept her focus from him. Having gotten trapped in the lift a handful of times in the span of a month Fallon normally waited for a different one. However, having been out of the office for two weeks and becoming consumed with her case, she hadn't thought twice of stepping into the first available lift. Who knew how long they'd be stuck for? Once she was trapped for the better part of two hours.
