Even if it did look rather mouthwatering...oh...what the heck. Maybe just ONE of these burgers.

Dropping it on to his plate, he then selected a few of the salad skewers and one of the chilled soups in a cup. He preferred his soup in a bowl and found this glass a bit to delicate for his liking, but at least the soup was good and went down nice and smooth.

Setting down the now empty glass, he leaned against one of the tables and began to crunch away at a skewer. Now...to see if he could spot some of his new employees...

Preferably before they spotted him...

Was he smiling like a loon? He felt like he couldn't stop smiling!



The first stop on today's Ministry adventure - FOOD. Now that Tucker lived in a flat on his own in London, he was trying super hard to eat healthy - but BURGERS. He hadn't had a burger since he was probably like...five years old. Gabi Schultz was real big on the whole healthy, organic food stuff. He just had to remind himself that just because he didn't live with his mum anymore, he didn't have to go crazy with the food and blow up like a balloon...

As he was loading his plate, he noticed the man next to him seemed...familiar. It took Tucker a moment, but then he recognized him as none other than Aron Ashburry-Hawthrone, his new department head! He was not going to admit it to him, but the eager new employee had TOTALLY done some research into the department and stumbled upon his name and picture in a few articles.

Taking a few deep breaths, Tucker put a smile on his face and approached the man. "Mr. Ashburry-Hawthrone?" he said, even though he knew who it was - wait, did he use both last names? Oh Merlin this was confusing! Don't get flustered Tucker, don't get flustered..."HI! I just wanted to introduce myself...I'm Tucker Schultz, I just got a job on your level in the Experimental Charms Committee," he explained with a smile. GRIN. Ok, ease up on the smiling, Schultz, don't want to freak him out or anything...


Where was the food?

Sophie quickly made her way from the entranceway that was quickly filling up with people to the food marquees hoping to find something to eat that would settle her nervous stomach. This was almost depending on how you saw it her first official day at the ministry. Nervously tugging a few brown strands of hair back behind her ears, she sincerely hoped for the 1000th time that day that she wouldn’t screw it up in some way.

Taking a deep breath, she made her way over on her new high heels that the shopkeeper had insisted was a must have along with her colourful red dress. It had been useless to point out numerous times that Sophie’s balance wasn't exactly perfect. Grabbing a tray Sophie neared an older man and a younger guy by the canapés. "Hello," she murmured flashing them both big warm smiles. "Are the skewers edible? Or should I go for the safer option of a soup?" Sophie figured that she could make some polite conversation with the men. It couldn't hurt. For all she knew they could be employees of the same department.
