Red nodded to Elsa, well aware it was nothing close and the other woman was probably being polite. She shrugged at Ralph. It had only been a suggestion, he didn't have to if he didn't want to. Red stepped into the elevator and waved to Ralph from inside it. It was a nice elevator for a police department, and she was certainly impressed. "So Elsa, what about yourself? Always had the snow powers or...?"

Oh how stupid. The girth of Ralph would have cost the department money in repairs. She shrugged along with Red at Ralph saying he could take the stairs. She and the bounty hunter stepped inside, where the lawyer pressed the floor. As the doors closed, Red asked if she always had the snow powers.
"Yes," she answered. "still curious as to how I got them in the first place myself."

Ralph waited by the elevator doors, watching as the numbers slowly lit up. Nikki and Elsa would soon join him and yet he still as having trouble sorting through what he should do. Perhaps it would be better to make his excuses and leave the BPD. Then again, perhaps it would be better to just talk things over with Elsa.
After all, they were still friends even if that friendship felt.....strained at times. However, would talking really make anything better or would it only make it worse for both of them?

"Well there's always askin the spirits, if it was inherited your grandparents or ancestors would know" Red said, never too shy to not jump at the opportunity for a potential job, even if it was pro bono. Having people owe her was half her job. They made good contacts and sources and what not. The door pinged open and Red walked out of the elevator, fixing a loose strand of hair back into her hairdo as she did so. "Heya Ralph. Nice a ya to wait for us. Yer a real peach sug"

Elsa mulled the idea over. Normally, the thought of communicating with spirits was something she had been weary of. The last time she had tried to communicate with the afterlife had ended up with a ouija board had broken slash frozen right under her grip. "I suppose that wouldn't hurt to try.."
The elevator made a pleasant ding and th door opened. Nikki walked out first, thanking Ralph for waiting. Elsa didn't openly thank him out loud, after all Nikki did it for her, but she gave Ralph a thankful nod with a smile,
"Yes, that is one of his best traits. His heart is probably ten times bigger than his hands."
Her comment was genuine. The only time she hadn't seen a pleasant side was...no, she would talk to him about it another time. Lassoing Nikki into their past would be unfair.

With a gentle ping, the elevator doors finally opened and Elsa along with Nikki stepped out onto the main floor. Ralph only gave a small nod of the head at Nikki's thanks but couldn't help staring at Elsa when she spoke. It took him several moments to finally return his focus to the present and speak.
"Only five times bigger."
He hoped his joking tone would cover the silence that had briefly descended over them before coughing into his hand and gesturing down the hall of the lower floor.
"Licensing office is down the hall and to the right. At least, it used to be when I worked here."
Ralph said all of this with a small grin on his face, but it seemed rather forced in that moment.

"I can help ya. I'm very careful when it comes to calling spirits. Specially old ones. Just round up a list of possible names and we'll get started if ya like"
Red looked between Elsa and Ralph with an odd look. There was a lot of pent up emotion between the two of them, so think and evident she could practically taste it. However she had the sense not to say anything as they would either deny it or get angry and she didn't like either option. So she chose to pretend to be blind to it. "Five times bigger is still pretty gosh darn big sug" she told him lightheartedly. Red looked down the way that Ralph indicated and nodded. "You two can stay here while I go get it if y'all want. Or you can come with. I don't rightly care."

"The desk is still there. The only difference is that hook nosed bat who used to run it retired," Elsa answered. The elder lady who ran the desk before was gruff, unfriendly, and always had some mustard stain on her clothes. Now that she was gone, Elsa could finally say what she had been holding back all those years. "We'll just stand to the side so you can handle the situation, but you have backup if you have questions," she answered Nikki

"Sure."
Ralph was somewhat grateful to Nikki for offering to go and get her license on her own, yet he also didn't want her to leave simply because there would be no one else present to distract him from Elsa. Still, that wasn't something he was going to announce so he merely gave a small shrug at Nikki's offer.
"Holler if you need any help."

Red smiled gratefully at the both of them and walked over to the desk, where there was a middle aged man sitting. "May I help y-oh, hello" the bored drawl turned into a surprised and eager greeting. Red bit back an amused snort and leaned over the desk to be closer to the man. It was just a habit, she was near-sighted and finally got contacts, but the habit of leaning to see faces still persisted.
"Heya sug. I'ma here for a lil ole bounty huntin license and I'd be ever so pleased if you could get the paperwork out for me" she said with a bright smile, and the man's eyes bugged out of his head. He adjusted his tie and reached into his desk drawers for the paperwork, Red smiling happily all the while. Quite aware of what she was doing to him.

"Is this your first time with the Bellerouge Police?" the receptionist asked with a straightening of his tie. The questions for Red to answer were slef explanatory and set out on the format. Questions sch as if she was wanting to work with the generic units or the Others Unit.
As Nikki was talking to the new secretary, Elsa stood at the back wall. A bench was free, and she almost took it, but then she thought about Ralph. The only bench large enough to sit him was being occupied by several people, one was a younger individual who seemed more fixated on some game on their phone than the actual human slash Other contact going on around. She frowned. Some people could be super inconsiderate nowadays.

Ralph waited in silence as Nikki walked off to get her paperwork. He was hoping that Elsa would be the first to speak, that she would set the tone of how they should be acting towards each other when no one else was there to distract them.
However, she remained just as quiet as he was and seemed to be more focused on a teenager sitting on a nearby bench and flipping through their phone nonstop. He rubbed his knuckles as the relative silence between them lengthened, a habit he often did when he was feeling somewhat anxious. Finally, he decided to try and start a conversation.
"So.....any new cases you're working on?"

"Sure, sug. Neva worked with em before in my life" she took the paperwork and looked it over, glancing for a moment at the guy. "Either you find something else to do of I get a misdemeanor for shooting you for looking at inappropriate places. Yo choice sug" she said sweetly, causing the man to redden and grab some paperwork to do. She then signed where it was necessary and pushed the paper back to the guy after several minutes. "Anything else I needa do, like get my picture taken for the license?"
