[Jay Aspen]

He's not nervous exactly. It's not like he hasn't done this before-- how many times has he had a check-in with someone from the glorious heights of the Sector office? Too many to count at this point. But he was, actually, and Jay could swear he's been staring at the same stupid plant in the hallway for twenty minutes now. He could see it growing.
Jay fidgeted in the seat, one hand spinning his phone around, fingers tapping the glass. Was it actually twenty minutes? Blue eyes glanced at the screen and he very visibly grimaced. Ugh, no, it'd been five minutes. Not even five! It was like three!
He stood and stretched and then sat down again. And then stood up. This was what he got for trying to make a good impression. Sitting here doing nothing was going to drive him stir-crazy.
Christ.
He had started pacing and was thinking about doing squats or push-ups in the hall or maybe even trying to climb his way up to the next floor- because that wouldn't get him into trouble- when the office door opened.

"Oh thank god," he said immediately as relief washed over him. "I know it's just a check-in but holy shit, I think I was going to go crazy just from waiting around. Never let me be early ever again- that was torture." Jay shook his hands out, stuck them in his hoodie pockets and grinned. "Ms. Garcia, right? Naomi Garcia? I'm Jay. Aspen. Jay Aspen. It's nice to meet you. I'm supposed to do a check-in with you today."

[attr="class","nikki109"] Naomi liked keeping a tab on her cases. The GPP wasn't a huge section of the Sector but it was something she was passionate about. Making sure that people were safe and were able to live happy lives without constantly looking over their shoulders for danger was important. She also did her best to make sure she was on time to all of her meetings. Which wasn't always easy but she liked to think raising five little siblings had made her pretty good with time management. She'd double checked the time on her phone to see if she was on time before she opened the door to the little waiting area. [break][break]

Though as she noticed her current client doing a...workout regimen. It certainly wasn't the strangest thing she'd ever seen and she supposed it was better than walking in to someone sobbing or totally catatonic. But as soon as she opened the door she was hit with a wall of pent up anxiety and energy that threatened to knock her off her feet. Naomi had to take a moment to blink away the feeling as she pushed out a field of calm and ease. If just so she was able to walk into the room. As she stepped closer to her client she pushed her bubble of calm further out. Wrapping it around them as well like a warm hug. "It's nice to meet you, Jay," she said sweetly with a soft smile on her lips. "You can just call me Naomi if you want, no need to be too formal." [break][break]

Normally she'd offer to shake a persons hand, especially because the physical contact helped with her gift, but seeing him put his hands into his pockets she decided against it. Though this was just a check in some people just generally didn't like to be touched, which she respected. "If you follow me we can head to my office," she offered as she lead them back through the door down the hall to her office. It wasn't a long walk before she opened another door to a small office with a large window on one wall. The room had a large bookshelf filled to the brim with books, some clearly just for personal reading as opposed to her job. There was a desk near the window with a computer, a few small plants, a box of tissues, and some little crocheted animals sitting on it. Across from the desk were to comfortable yellow chairs with pillows in them shaped like sunflowers with a small side table between them that held a little basket of extra pillows and two throw blankets. There were two filing cabinets by the door as well as a minifridge. [break][break]

The whole room gave off an air of ease and comfort. Made to help a person relax, with the bonus affect of Naomi being able to take the occasional nap when she got a migraine. "Make yourself comfortable," she offered as she closed the door behind them. "Do you want a water or soda or anything?"

      Maybe he was supposed to relax when he saw Naomi Garcia- and he did, marginally- but the hyperactive hamster wheel called his brain just kicked it up a notch. God, maybe the lady thought he was being weird or something, or, god, worse, she was just being polite and taking him to the office before telling him to take a dive off the deep end and transferring him to another city. Again.
      The office didn't look like the one his last handler had; this one was nice and cozy like a warm summer day. And she was nice. "Oh, do you have any energy drinks or something? The caffeine helps me be," he laughed nervously. "Normal and not everywhere? I promise I'm not normally like this- I just…" Have been having trouble getting his meds. Between payments and the pharmacy not ordering refills, he hadn't been keeping up with his med schedule. What was he going to do if he ran out?
      He offered a weak smile. "Am really nervous. The last guy I had taking care of all my stuff really didn't like me, and I think he was sorta searching for any excuse to dump me, and now I'm just." Jay groaned and dropped into a chair, one hand ruffling his hair anxiously as the other waved vaguely, "You know?" There had to be a whole laundry list of reasons why handlers were avoiding him like the plague these days.
