" Of course I do.. i just didnt mean to say it out loud and make things weird... Like I did." he folded his arms on the table. he looked back up at Joss.. " but yeah, I meant it." he gave her a weak smile.

Jocelyn glanced up to James at his response, "No you didn't make anything weird." She placed her hand on James's arm that was resting closes to her on the table, "What would make it weird is if you was to hide the feelings." She gave him a warm smile, "Yet- I think we should talk about this-" She glanced around the room then back to James, "In another place."

James Nodded ." yes that is probably a good idea." he said he glanced down at her hand on his arm and smiled. " Where would you suggest we continue this conversation?"

Jocelyn seat for a moment thinking to herself, "Well I believe we should leave personal business out of this department at least, but if you want to go down to the Atrium and talk." She shrugged her shoulders as she made the suggestion, "What do you think."

james thought froma moment he had to agree this wasnt the best place for such a conversation. "I'm sure the atrium will be more fitting." he admitted. he slid his chair back a bit to get up.

At the sight of seeing James move his chair back Jocelyn followed suit and did so herself. She stood up following James over to the door. She stood await for him to open it. "I told you," she said flashing a smile at him. She laughed as he opened the door and she walked out heading for the lift.

James laughed slightly as they walked towards the lifts " and I told you.." He smiled. " i meant what i said earlier and well recently. he answerd as he pushed the button and they waited on the lift.

The whole time Andrea was speaking Zephyrus was smiling. It made him feel so much better to know that he'd be working with someone he knew and had cared about not that long ago. "Way too long. I guess I really lost touch with everyone after school," he mused. The only people he really talked with now were his brothers and sisters, along with a few of his neighbors who were muggles. Not a lot of people from the wizarding world crossed his path in California. At least, none that he knew of.

"My sister Willow has been reading a lot," he chuckled when she mentioned the book store. "I should tell her to stop by one of these days." He then shrugged, running his thumb and pointer finger over his chin where he had a bit of stubble from lack of shaving. "Well, after school I got a job at one of the beaches as a lifeguard. I'm still gonna do that over the summer, so that's a plus. And you know about all the animals my parents keep, that also took up a lot of my time. Then I just came here," he informed her. "Oh and I've been spending a lot of time at my cousin's music shop. It's getting along really well," he added as an afterthought.

The black fox lifted her head up, she looked around and saw ALOT of people she really didn't know. So with that in mind she got up and walked toward the door.

Corvus changed back into her human form and walked over to a chair in the corner. she picked up her backpack and pulled out the documents inside of it along with a quill and some ink.

She placed the paper, ink and quill down on a desk and began to fill out the documents.

After recieving my note from Onikami about family relations and the other note from the MoM office I land on a chair beside Corvus and look at her, smiling a birdish smile. Forming back to human I say,
"Hi fourth cousin. Looks as if we're related, and in the same deparment. Odd same as our cousins are both in Ravenclaw." Smiling I pull out my letter and take the new family tree Onikami had made and present it to Corvus.

Corvus turned her head toward him as she finished writing the last word "Yeah, it's really cool" she said glancing over her work.

"Oh, you can't be an animagus here, they hired you not a bird" she said with a bit of a grim look on her face "You could get fired if you fool around to much" she said.

"I'm not fooling around, I just got here, and I'm not a bird at the moment. I would be working but so far work in the werewolf capture unit has been slow, and I'm kinda bored...yeah." I say, sighing in boredom pulling out a small sketch pad and continuing work on a griffyn drawing.

"You like to draw too?" she asked, "I've been sketching for as long as I can remeber" she said with a smile.

"Meh, yeah. Though I only draw creatures I've seen. It dould take me up to a year to get the details right, the magnafacation spell helps, though I easily remember every detail due to having photographic memory." I smile remembering that I had at least two unusual conditions. "I'm drawing a picture of a griffyn that I saw when in Greece."

"Really?!, that's awsome" she said as she continued to work.

Corvus gave a small sigh then sat back in the chair, she then started to stretch and then smiled at her cousin.

"Yeah, but remember, you remember the exact details of everything you see. That means there may be things you'd rather not see." I sigh, running my fingers through my hair as I add another bit to the picture.

"mmmm" Corvus nodded her head.

"Yeah...so, where do you live since we're on this topic of biography like info?" I ask as I add a minor scar to the griffyn's left flank.

"London" she answerd "But my family used to live in Japan, i'm fluent by the way in both Japanese and Russian" she smiled "You should really hear some music by Lafee, she's a Russian singer" she looked at him for a moment before putting away her quill, ink, and papers. "Where do you live?"
