The day was like any other. Awaken, shave, shower, dress, oatmeal. It was comforting to run through the dull monotony of the mundane routines, giving Za'saad an excellent start to his day. His shift wasn't until later, but still he found himself with an overabundance of energy so he decided to leave home and head towards work.
By the door to the back entrance, a familiar yet unfamiliar face stood in silence, waiting for someone to guide the poor, lost soul. "Well aren't you a diligent soul, the restaurant doesn't open for another three hours or so, yet here you are. I must admit, fate surely plays a strange prank for letting us meet in such unconventional methods." approaching, Za'saad fished up his keys to unlock the door as well to disarm the alarm so no incident would occur unnecessarily. "I knew a new hire had joined the warfront, but to think it was you... I never would've guessed. I suppose the Lady of Luck saw it fit for use to get acquainted elsewhere before we met at work. I wonder why... Shall we?" Gesturing to the open door, Za'saad nodded his head in greeting to let the young man pass him and go inside now that the alarm was off.

"Well, we were bound to run into each other eventually then - be it at shift change or otherwise." Za'saad noted while the door was opened for them to freely enter. "I've been here comfortably for a few months." After closing it behind them, he followed behind Oleandor till they found themselves in the employee locker-room, giving them amble space and time to change - however Za'saad just deposited his valuables in his locker before closing it back up. "Why are you here so early?... Well, I suppose it doesn't matter, I can put you to work if you have nothing much to do. I was going to polish all our silverware - it takes some time, but I thought our guests deserves the best. It also means we can set up tables sooner now that we're already here. Maybe even do a thorough cleaning of the whole front of house. What do you say? Two against the world seems like fair odds." Giving the other a smile, Za'saad left the employee area and headed for the front of house where he turned on the lights to really see what was going on. Giving it a look, he nodded to himself and headed for the back where he started preparing a mop for the floors. "If you take the mop, I'll lift the tables."
Za'saad wasn't particularly physically strong - at least not with these untrained noodle arms of his - but with the wheels on the bucket of soap-water, he could a lot more easily get the thing to the front of house. While he waited for Oleandor to get ready, he made sure to clear as many tables as he could at once, so nothing that could spill were on top of them.

A chuckled escaped Za'saad as Oleandor spoke his concern and showed it on his face as well. With such an honest person, Z could practially see his thoughts in his expression - alas there was no need to worry. "I think I can manage." Za'saad couldn't help the cocky attitude as he reached his hand out in front of him, his iris lighting up with a purple glow, as he transferred power to the tip of his finger. His hand moved with a gentle and methodical flow, as if he was painting a delicate picture, leaving behind a trail of purple light that shaped into a strange scripture.
"Manipulation-... Gravity-...; lift." The words were clear and any hint of an accent was lost to the accuracy of pronunciation. There was intent behind his tone and it was spoken like a military command, using the whole body to convey their meaning. His fingers fanned out as the purple writing vanished and instead he felt his magic take hold around the table he had so intensely focused on - and as he lifted his hand, the distortion around it got more intense before eventually pulling it off the floor. The fancy display wasn't just to show off, however, as Za'saad's power had greatly diminished since coming here. He was forced to go back to basics and spell out his intentions clearly when pushing even the smallest of limits. Had he just tried to grab the table like it was second nature, he would never success at his current power level. As it was, his was just strong enough to get the thing off the floor with the extended concentration, but he didn't know how long he could actually hold it.
"Perhaps this should suffice? It'll certainly be faster than moving the tables back and forth." there was a teasing tone to his voice, hiding the bit of strain that it was causing him, but he waited patiently for Oleandor to get the area immediately underneath the table before slowly putting it back in it's place. They might have to go back and align everything properly later, but that was the least of their worries.
