Heather Mitterbill Minister's Office | Hope is the only thing stronger than fear. SPOILER!!: The Two of You Quote:

She was aware that someone had entered the room, so the voice didn't startle her in the least. Pivoting slightly where she stood, Emily turned to see a smart straight-up gentleman. How charming. Did he come like this? Or did Albert and Gavin mold him into this form? Smiling, Emily took his hand, wondering if introductions were necessary at all. He knew who she was, right? ... Eeeehhh, she could play nice. "Emily Browne, just here doing a security sweep," she said with a firm shake before retracting her hand. "Might I pick your brain briefly?" she asked, because employee opinions counted for something, even his. More footsteps announced the arrival of another busy body, and this time Emily turned to see who it might be. Wondering if she was in luck in spotting the Senior Undersec. Sadly, not yet.
Her polite smile was still in place, though she wondered why the woman had left her Department. And to think she had considered promoting her, so sad. The first name basis thing was mildly irksome, but she wasn't about to get huffy and exercise her authority now. "Heather, it most certainly is... I hope the Minister's Office is treating you well." Cue brow raise. Quote:

And what was with the security? Did that mean he ought to leave her alone or..? Would it be weird if he asked? Explain he was a foreigner so he didn't really understand? But that was way too humiliating! No. Instead, he smiled and drew some air to speak, but he had to relieve it as Heather appeared. He was saved! He took half a step backwards to let her join the conversation or whatever this was, and simply listened to the exchange between these two women.
Heather used to work under her? Huh. Heather gave a great big smile. "They are treating me well, thank you for asking." She only had one complaint, but it was probably the same complaint that everyone in the department had. However, she kept silent and pushed through, literally sometimes, hoping that this was exactly what everyone said it was, temporary. "Almost as well as MLE did." And that was a compliment. They had never done her wrong, she had just been ready for a change of scenery.
A few questions popped to the tip of her tongue but she caught them all. Maybe another time. She really didn't want to bother the woman with them at that moment. Plus, it seemed she had some questions for Mr. Neves anyway. She turned and looked at him. "I didn't mean to interrupt, Mr. Neves. She seems to have a few questions for you." She had noticed his silence and wasn't exactly sure if she was at fault for it. Turning back to Emily she gave the woman another smile. "It was nice to see you again. Maybe we can meet up and have lunch some day?" Then she could ask her questions. She heard the creak of a door and her head snapped in the direction. She wasn't sure what to expect, but was soon calmed by the fact that it was just a person and that nothing was falling from the ceiling. She gave him a small smile, recognizing him from the conference room. She had taken to remembering every face and name she would be working with. "Hello, Ezra."
As he stood there and she gave another smile. "Can I help you with something?" He looked like he wanted something, just standing there.
