She sat down on her chair and turned to the Dept Head. "Wes-" she started, "-Erm, Mr.Ferguson" He's the department head Julia, be polite for god's sake. "So have you found someone to replace your latest job?" she asked with a smile. "Wand weighting did suit you well" Uh-oh, not so well though. And she saw another man talking to him and she gave him a small smile. "Hello" she said, he did look a bit distraught.

"Pass. I'll watch you and everyone else eat instead." A task that neither required eating or his part, or mingling. And since there wasn't much happening at the moment, he chose to watch Wes load up his plate with food.

A smile hadn't graced his lips the entire time he'd been in this building, which was a long time considering the orientation had just begun, but one spread across his face at the news of twins. It was worthy of such a thing. "Congratulations. On the birth and the possible arrest, assuming you got the right person." Hopefully so. "What did you name the twins?"

His eyes flicked over to all the employees starting to make there way over to the buffet. It was going to get crowded soon. "My break was not as busy as yours. Spent some time in Australia." Definitely not playing tennis. His eyes settled on the closest new face, new to him at least, who was now speaking to them. "Hello."
Wes stifled a chuckle at Julia's self-correcting. "Wes is fine, Julia," he greeted her with a little smile. "I sure did. It turned out it wasn't really my cup of tea. What are the YATI for, anyway?" Low man on the totem pole got the low-level job, as it were.

He finished chewing his little croissant and gestured toward the other department head in their vicinity. "This is Rafael Belmonte. Head of the Department of Environmental Regulation and Protection." And he thought his department title was long! "Rafa, meet Julia. Works on my level, in the Improper Use of Magic Office." She was an investigator, he believed.

Wes nodded at the congratulations, picking up a fork and starting to stab at some vegetables around the plate he was... still standing and eating. "Yeah, thanks. It was a life-changing break, it was. We named them Scott and Logan. Both boys."

Two boys! He couldn't be prouder, and was grinning to himself as he moved food from plate to mouth, plate to mouth. "So Australia, huh?" He chewed and swallowed before speaking more. "What did ya do? I'm originally from Australia..." He LOVED it there.

She would have gone up to speak with him, but he was busy speaking with someone else and she didn't want to interrupt him. So she made her way along the rows of chairs until she found her name tag.'Guess this is where I sit.' Melissa thought to herself.

Noticing that others had already made their way to the buffet table and were filling up their plates with food, she picked up hers and walked over to the table. She was amazed at the spread of food that they were being offered. She felt her stomach growl and realized that she was hungry. Looking around to make sure that nobody had heard her tummy growl, Melissa, started filling up her plate, with sandwiches, potato salad, roast chicken, steamed veggies and then scooped up some gravy and liberally covered her potato and roast chicken with it.

Looking down at her plate, Melissa began to laugh. If people didn't know better, they would think that she hadn't eaten in a week. Her plate was now piled high with food.
Wes' eyes roamed around the room a bit while he was chewing a bit of roast beef on a roll. Mmm. Delicious. He noticed another woman picking up food and recognized her as Melissa, also from level 2. CMEC, if he wasn't mistaken.

Why was she laughing at her plate though? "You all right there, Potter?" he called out to her. She wasn't under someone's spell, was she?

He was so confused...ugh...he shouldn't be here...he'd been feeling really weird lately. Something was wrong with him.

Deciding he'd just try and stay for a little while, he walked along the tables, and suddenly ran into the wall, causing him to fall backwards onto the floor. He blinked. "I need to watch where I'm going..." he muttered to himself as he stood up. He was never this clumsy! Ever!

He sighed, and continued to walk along one of the long tables at the far end of the room. As he walked along it, he noticed a name tag with his name on it at one of the seats. Oh. So this must be where he should be sitting.

He plopped down into the seat with a sigh, staring at the food in front of him. Drool slowly dripped from his mouth and trickled down his chin, and he quickly wiped it away. He glanced around quickly, hoping no one had seen. Merlin's beard, what was happening to him?! He swallowed hard, putting a hand up to his pale cheeks. They felt a little warm...he then felt his forehead which felt the same. He sighed, running a hand through his jet black hair. Maybe he should just go home now...
...but all this food looked really good...
Maybe he'd stay for a little bit more.
And there was another weird-looking one... Wes didn't know this guy though. He just noticed him... drooling. And staring. Come to think of it, he was kind of behaving like his little MLES employee...girl person... the one who had asked for time off when she felt 'sick'.....

"Oi," he leaned in to talk to Julia in a low tone, "we should keep an eye on that one, there," Wes nodded to the guy slumped in his seat. "He looks like he might barf all over the tables at any point..."
