Like a proper little employee, he was, eep. And it looked great, too, just as he would expect a newspaper place to look, so he finally was able to smile.

UHH...

He liked coffee and cream... well... GOOD FOR YOU, DUDE. Theodore was no coffee boy... unless they asked him to, which he REALLY hoped they wouldn't. Before he could think of how to reply THAT, he was being quizzed about intern stuff. Good.

"Umm..." Future journalist? Jeez, let's not jump to conclusions. "I just wanted to try it out, see if I'd be any good, I've never really done anything like it before. I mean I just don't really know what to do after school..." SIGH, this conversation was lovely and all but Theo really just wanted to get stuck in and do something. "Yeah! I'm about to go into my seventh year." Soooooo thinking about careers now was pretty smart.


Jorge watched the kid for a bit. Did he have to think about the answer? Though Jorge could understand that and he nodded, "Well it's good to try new things. Figure out what you really want to do. I remember being like that." He had been fully into wanting to be an auror, but that changed and writing shined as his passion. Leaning back in his chair he though maybe this kid would be worth his time. As egotistical as he was he was pretty good with kids and younger adults.

"Seventh year, now that's exciting." This was exciting, this boy.. What was his name again? Could get him some of the info he needed. "Alright, so you want to be a journalist. I know Tori probably has something up her sleeve for you, but I have something else if you'd like to help." Moving his papers around he pulled out his notes. "Now I don't know if you have ever seen any of my stories or read the prophet, but my style of writing isn't liked by all." His signature smirk playing on his face. He enjoyed that it annoyed some. "I like to do more need to know articles on things that are covered up. The piece I've been working on getting information for lately is your school. The staff more specifically." Eyeing the boy he tried to see if he was reacting the way Jorge wanted him to.

"The piece is about why people aren't being help more responsible for things, how the headmistress hires her staff, and are the staff fair and the most effective teachers." Now for what he needed from the boy. "What I'd like you to do since you probably have many friends is help e get information about this. Ask your friends what their thoughts are about the staff, things that have happened, if they felt justice had come. Get me quotes and maybe I'll even help you write it, give you co writing credit." That would motivate the boy, right? He should feel privileged that Jorge would even think to do that.
