SPOILER!!: Victoria

Simon took notice of her moving closer but it didn't alarm him to anything being off. Just a matter of absent movement. He listened as she give the information he requested, nodding as it all checked out. "It is indeed," the YATI spoke, removing the dark wood wand from the wand weigher and handing it polished back to its rightful owner.

"There you are. Have a good day."

SPOILER!!: Konrad

He kept his attention on the man out of politeness since it was rude not to see the person you were speaking to. Only glancing down as the results of the test were completed and satisfactory. "You're all set," Simon said retrieving the wand before holding it out for the man.

SPOILER!!: Aaron

Speciality Area...that was a new one.

Or so Simon mused as he chanced a glance at the sign-in sheet after his next customer signed in. The groan brought him back and cause a slightly raised eyebrow. Someone was bothered. Nevertheless the man's wand was handed over to him and he accepted it. "Thank you." With the practice of having being doing it all day, the auror trainee put the wand in the weigher before returning his attention to his companion in front of him.

"Please state for me the characteristics of your wand."

SPOILER!!: Penny

Simon nodded at her introduction even though it wasn't much needed as she had already signed in. Another one not quite sure with handing her wand over which clearly spoke new to the ministry as the task was an everyday occurance when one arrived usually. "Thank you," he stated simply as it was given however, the YATi sending it through the wand weigher which confirmed all was well.

"Its simply a security protocol to make sure everything is right as its said to be," he explained moving to hand back her wand. "And you're all set. Have a good day."

SPOILER!!: Yvonne

He was back in rotation and facing another MLEr once more as the next woman stepped up to the desk when it was her turn. Practiced, she went through procedure and finally took her wand out and Simon accepted it in stride. "Please describe your wand," he instructed however as he slipped it inside the wand weigher, seeing as she hadn't readily given up the information at first.

SPOILER!!: Persephone

"Next..." Simon said calling up the next person on the queue. The woman in question answered with movement, signing in and putting on one of the name-tags provided for the event. He couldn't help wonder just a second on what number that would make her having already dealt with so many.

"Good day," he greeted politely before holding out his hand for her wand. "Your wand please. And then describe its characteristics."

SPOILER!!: Dexter

He watched the man backtrack in steps, moving to sign in after handing over his wand. It didn't much matter here or there as long as they did all that they needed to do. "More like simply make sure all is as it should be. No charmed or cursed wands either." That was a good reason as any and didn't make it seem like employees werent trusted. Simon listened as the description was needed, about to answer the older man's question when he himself just plowed on. Everything matched up and the YATI retrieved the wand to hand it back.

"There you are. Good day sir."

Though sometimes they do have log lines too at the front desk. Describe her wand. Victoria took a step closer in order to be heard clearer and spoke. "It's ebony wood. Phoenix feather core. And 12¼inches long." Memorized by heart. Is she done or anything else? Simon took notice of her moving closer but it didn't alarm him to anything being off. Just a matter of absent movement.

Heh, he knew absolutely nothing about this whole security thing. He kept his attention on the man out of politeness since it was rude not to see the person you were speaking to.

SPOILER!!: Aaron Quote: Originally Posted by MissMUDBL00D Aaron made his way over to the MoM Orientation, slowed down by his annoying crutches and ~~itchy~~ broken leg. The 19 year old eyed the weird looking machine and frowned. It'd better not be anything he'd have to stick his head in or something scary like that. The Ministry of Magic had lots of scary stuff, Aaron knew that. Mmmkay. Aaron shook the thought of the head-looking machine out of his head and looked to see what others were doing. AH. Name lists. Of course. He scribbled his name down, trying to make it look nice. He had a legit job now, so he had to have nice handwriting and all that. Once he'd written down his name he let out a quiet groan. The scary machine. Aaron copied what everyone else was doing again and took his wand out of his pocket, it seeeemed like this new machine wasn't scary. Just a wand checker.

"Good day," Penny replied confidently with a small smile. "I'm Penny Alexandra Clearwater." There. Penny was precise and to the point, giving more information than necessary but enough to be accurate. Not quite understanding why her wand was required, Penny eyed the man before handing it over. Not a cautious glance, but a curious one. "Here's my wand," she said, handing it to him. "Hazel with phoenix feather core. Ten and three quarters inches." And then for good measure she added, "Apparently it's reasonably supple," remembering what she had been told when she first got her wand. "May I ask why my wand is required?" Simon nodded at her introduction even though it wasn't much needed as she had already signed in.

She had just gotten married --cue beautiful ring on her left ring finger-- and the last place she wanted to be was away from her husband, but duty called and she wasn't about miss anything. After signing the clipboard, Yvonne put the non-matching name tag on her and took her wand out. Her fingers were already feeling itchy at the thought of handing her precious wand over to someone else, but by the looks of it it was Simon, a YATI, in charge of weighing wands. That was good. She trusted people in her department, not that she had a problem with others. It was just...this was her wand. Her baby.

She'd had her own special assignment with her fellow Americans, and hadn't been back to England since. She stepped up to the clipboard and scribbled her name.She'd been undercover so long, it felt strange openly stating her occupation. It was equally odd seeing it written out on a name tag. She chuckled and placed it on her lapel. Wand-weighing was standard operating procedure at most magical institutions in the United States, so she didn't have any qualms parting ways with her wand. At 8 1/2 inches, it was fairly short, but the ash wand with a dragon heartstring core served her well over the years. She wished she could use it now to shorten the line and actually enter the party.

He spotted the clipboard, made a grab for it before anyone else could, it was his turn after all. Then he quickly jotted down, in his very own almost unreadable chicken scratch, the need to knows. He didn't see anything about adding his position, so he decided that he could add it later if he really needed it. He hated crossing things out with pen. Especially on things at work. It looked so... so.. messy and awful. "What's this for? You're checkin' if i'm lyin' to ya? Huh." It was.. strange, if you asked him. But.. he had a hard time dealing with the fact that not everyone thought the way he did and that some people might steal other people's wands. Awful, really. "That there in yer hands is a birch wand with a thestral tail core. Ya need to know that length?" He didn't wait for a response. "It's 13.2 inches." Merlin, these machines were odd and oh so unfamiliar. It was temporarily distracting him from his choice in clothing for the evening.
