"I love–," he starts to say back before the knocking draws his attention sharply towards the door. So much for having an intimate moment, not that he's very upset once he realizes that's probably the robot chef on the othe rside.

His body separates from Alec's to allow the frazzled mannequin-droid-thing through, eyeballing it as it rushes towards the cabinets. Before it can start lambasting them about the mess, Magnus grabs its attention fast by gripping the chef by its shoulders.

"If we could have just a brief moment of your time. It appears we've been charged with making tea and could use a little guidance before my fiancé ends up using his tea bag in hot water method."

The robot looks just as appalled by that statement as Magnus had been, and the judgmental expression thrown from the chef at Alec is well-deserved in Magnus' opinion. But that statement does prompt the robot to start rattling off a list of ingredients for them to fetch.

"Alright, I believe I saw the greenhouse on the way here, so I can take care of the tea leaves if you want to fetch the rest," he offers to Alec. As much as he doesn't want them to separate right now, it'll be quicker this way, and it's only for a few minutes... Surely, Alec will be waiting for him when he gets back.

Please be waiting for him.
