She wasn't really aiming to interact with him, because that seemed kind of strange while standing in the line for food.

If they knew each other any better, or at all for that matter, she might would make a joking comment about him leaving some food for the people behind him. As it was, she couldn't even see his face, so she had no idea who he was or what he looked like, so she just left well enough alone. It was too bad she didn't know anybody from her department. She shifted her weight from one foot to the other as she thought about the best way to make it through the event without looking awkward and in need of friends.

The line stalled then, because obviously somebody was taking a really long time, so Daphne shifted her weight from foot to foot once again. Someone across the table passed her a smile just then, and giving him a random introduction, she said, "Daphne Addison, the new Senior Dragon Researcher."


William was honestly starting to run out of plate room, something that had never happened to him before. Even if it didn't necessarily FEEL like a garden party here, the food options had him convinced he was at one (despite never being to such a party before). And he was going to try everything.

Or so he'd thought, until he started imagining FEELING judgy LOOKS from the other Ministry workers. "Almost doneeeeee, gosh," he muttered darkly under his breath, pausing at the end of the line now as he tried to make a choice of pātisserie. Ooh la la, le fancy!

He glanced to the person next to him, some woman who was now... shoot, shouldn't have looked at her. She was introducing herself. To him? He didn't know, he sure hadn't been paying attention. But she'd definitely said something about DRAGONS, which caught his attention, and so now he would have to say something back.

"You new?" he half-grunted, remembering his manners a moment too late. Uhhh. He cleared his throat and tried again, "...to level four? Are you new to level four?" There, he'd said a complete sentence. Good job William.

Anddddddd piling on the desserts, piling on the desserts....all the desserts...
