In fact, this was her first day, but they probably couldn't tell because she was so professional. She clasped her hands together and brought them up just below her chin, then batted her eyelashes at the group of men and returned to her seat.

She listened as the others introduced themselves with a few giggles here and there in between. She checked her watched hoping this would end soon. One hour hadn't even passed and she was already tired, plus she had to buy groceries on her way home, which she detested doing. She let out a deep sigh and then some other people said something and then something else. Blah, blah, blah. She motioned with her hand for the man to move along and get to the point, which he soon did.

Poppy jumped up from her seat when the man asked for suggestions. She had them, those didn't take much effort, so she could do that. "Oh, I have just the most darling ideas!" She did. This place was so boring a unicorn would kill itself if it was subject to it. She took out a notepad from her bag and a quill, licked the tip and began jotting down a few notes before sharing them. "I will charm this place up!" She did a little dance by simply shaking her hips, then put the notepad down. "I know the most darling spell that charms light to take the shape-- Oh, let me show you!" With that she took out her wand, which was pink and had a heart on the handle, and flicked it. All of the sudden a wisp of light began to emerge from her wand and taking the shape of a small unicorn. She flicked it again and the unicorns multiplied. As the light unicorns pranced around the room they left behind a trail of sparkles and hearts that floated in the air for a brief while and then disappeared. "Aren't they just darling!?" The unicorns were all spread across the room now which was filled with sparkles and tiny hearts everywhere. Poppy giggled and finally, with a motion of her wand, they disappeared. How could they turn that down.

She then heard a voice at the door and turned around.
Hunter blinked in surprise as the woman stood up just to introduce herself. And what was with the giggling? "It's very nice to meet you Poppy." Of course he was just being polite because he had a feeling that he was going to need a lot of patience when it came to Mrs Pricklepot.

Which was immediately put to the test when she jumped up from her chair again and began waving her wand around. Hunter looked on in a mild horrified fascination as a bunch of unicorns floated around the room followed by sparkles and hearts. He cleared his throat and gave Poppy what he hoped was a pleasant smile. "Well...er...that's lovely Poppy." Actually it was quite gag worthy. "But unfortunately it's not very practical and it may distract everyone from their work." It would probably send half of them home with nausea. "But keep thinking."

'Mr. Greingoth asked me to give you this,' she said, entering the room and handing him the letter, all the while GLARING at Prinklepickle. 'And, er, Mrs... Pricklepot? I think you're needed upstairs,' she added, still glaring. Stupid woman. Lizzie had had to run all the way here, when instead she could have been doing nice, orderly paperwork - which wouldn't have messed up her hair, either.

She wondered why it was so urgent that Mrs Whatsherface was upstairs, anyway, if she worked for Magical Maintenance. As far as she was aware, there was nothing going wrong in the office. In fact, everything was pretty clean and tidy - especially Lizzie's desk. She had made sure of that before she had sat down. She was kind of OCD about these things.

Hearing his name being called from the doorway, Hunter tore his gaze away from Poppy and looked over to a young woman. "Yes?" He raised his eyebrows as the woman walked into the room and handed him a piece of parchment. He took it from her and scanned it quickly before looking over at Poppy.

"Seems you are required elsewhere Poppy. Off you go then." Take as long as you like, he wanted to add but managed to keep that to himself. If ever Borr needed a personal assistant, Poppy Pricklepot was it.
