"I'll have you know, it's been busy until precisely the moment you walked in. Did you send people away?" Vai smirks, only to playfully try to swat Nate's hands away from the ailing leaf on one of the plants. "Tough love has its place, but it's no substitute for kindness on the whole," she tells him, waggling a finger at him for good measure. And that goes for people as well as plants, according to the witch, and she reaches out to brush a gentle finger across the leaf. "Chin up, he didn't mean it," she coos, before grinning back at the Doctor.
Vai's smile softens at his explanation, and she nods her gentle understanding and lets him occupy himself elsewhere. "All the more reason to enjoy it as much as you can," she says, drawing up beside him to raise a curious brow. "What's the occasion?" she wonders, evidently oblivious to the fact that he might have come by for something other than work.
