SPOILER!!: Charles & Gretchen

Just getting used to a new Department and getting everything in order." he said half way avoiding the true answer to that question.

He turned towards the two Hogwarts students with a dashing smile.

He was instantly impressed by the manners of the young man....glad to see there were students at Hogwarts that had been raised with manners. He reached out and met the young man's hand and shook it firmly. "Well it is nice to meet you as well. I'm Charles D'Isigny. I must admit that I am very impressed by your manners." he said with a nod and a smile.

Now the girl on the other hand should take some lessons from the young man and learn a proper greeting, but he knew it was always awkward for girls..."It's nice to meet you as well. You have a beautiful name...very eclectic." he said with his right eyebrow cocked up.

At the girl's last question, he glanced over his shoulder back at Gretchen and then turned towards the two students, "Well I work with the Accidents & Catastrophes Department at the Ministry." he said with a little nod up and down.

It was a politely vague response, but the woman didn't mind in the least. "That's good." Re-arranging a couple of backward-facing bags, Gretchen's brown eyes moved back on to the pair of students as young Arya asked a question of her own.

Blinking as Charles looked to her first, Gretchen brushed off her wandering thoughts and forced a smile to reappear, the smile becoming more sincere as she turned her own gaze back onto Arya and Sabel. "I'm just here to help friends." Gretchen answered happily. "So have either of you looked into careers as of yet?"

Blinking her brown eyes, a slight look of puzzlement crossed her face. Why would they be lucky to meet her? Lord Borr was the host - kind of - of this party, people were here to see and meet him. Not her. Instead of replying, Gretchen just smiled and hummed a soft, short hum.

"That sounds exciting, though. New Department, new changes for the better." Gretchen was pretty sure that wasn't everything that had been going on, but she left further details on the subject alone.
Before she could say anything else to Charles, another student had come up to the table. Gretchen smiled sweetly at the apparently nervous young girl, "Hello there, would you like a gift bag?" Or a question answered? Gretchen wasn't sure.

Sabel wasn't expecting an introduction from the man that was there, nor the rather strange compliment he received. Not too sure what to say, he gave the man a respectful nod of his head. "Thank you...I'll be sure to pass the compliment onto my parents---father." Biting his bottom lip, he drew his hand back. It was thanks to them he had the manners he did, but he could only thank one of them.

Shifting his weight, he cast the man a bit of a strange look when he complimented Arya's name in the way he did. Or maybe it was the expression Charles had when he made the statement. Either way it was impossible not to move a little closer to her and wrap his arm around her waist, albeit in a casual gesture so as not to arouse suspicion as to his defensiveness.

To cover it up, he gave Gretchen a small nod. "Security work...ITF or Auror." A glance was spared between the two adults, confusion furrowing his brow. "The Ministry has been revamped?" This was certainly news to him.
