"I wouldn't mind at all. Straight to work is just fine by me." She commented, hearing that last part. Thea would have continued talking but... well.

She noticed a certain former colleague sitting right there. For some reason. Of course her demeanour changed immediately. Icy. Frosty. Whatever you wanted to call it, she directed it at Edvard.

"Can I help you?" She asked coolly, narrowing her eyes.

"Good, then I'm happy to tell you that you're no longer lost." He was in the right place and Ashley could help him find his desk now, too. "Looks like we'll be working together then, yeah? Happy to have you. What with your love of potions magazines and all..." She added, smirking slightly. Heh. She wouldn't let him forget that bookstore episode. The image of him scurrying away from her still made her smile when she thought about it.

And then he was asking to get right to work. Impressed, Ashley shook her head. Why in the name of Merlin would the Department Head not want a new employee to get straight to work? And then-

O_O

How long had she been standing there, anyway?


Ashley was kind of caught off guard, this being her first experience with the new Department Head and all. She hadn't heard her behind them and she wondered if this woman was some kind of ninja or something. Would she be doing that in the offices too? Ashley would have to make sure she was always on her A game just in case. She gave the woman a smile and then glanced from Derek back to her, wondering what he was going to say. But then-

O_o

Ashley had noticed the change in tone and the eye narrowing. Merlin's pants. Whatever that guy had done to her, Ashley was just glad she wasn't in his shoes at this moment.

She turned to Derek and motioned for him to come with her. "I think it's best we go check out the office, don't you?" Quick man, lets get out of the line of fire.


He'd have to get used to it then, working with that Ashley-mind-reader. And Occlumency was a must-learn-it-now thing, yep. Derek would get the hang of it soon enough.

At least she would show him where to go and it was probably going to be the right place. Good, good! Derek even sighed, relieved.

Oh! Their Department Head! Derek was pleased to finally see her. He hadn't freaked out or anything during their interview. She seemed normal. Which was always good. And she wanted him to go straight to wrok! THANK MERLIN!

Derek finally smiled, glad he would be away from the awkwardness and would dive head first on his new job.

He did notice the change in her look/mood when she faced the other guy that was sitting there. He raised his eyebrows and looked at Ashley. "Sure, yeah. Let's go." Derek said quickly and turned to follow his colleague.
