SPOILER!!: Aron

Taking a plate Sophie grabbed a handful of skewers and put them on her plate. "Funny!" she giggled heartily at Aron's comment noting the sarcasm. "I'll take my chances then." Picking out a skewer she plucked it into her mouth and chewed on it experimentally. "It tastes good. Should I be careful with what I eat at the ministry?" She queried. Aron’s comment had raised a warning flag. If Sophie needed to bring her own food to work then she'd do it. The last thing she wanted to be was food poisoned. "Is it all right if I call you Aron or do you prefer boss, sir or even Mr Ashburry-Hawthorne?" It couldn’t hurt to know. All people in management positions Sophie had learned wanted you to address them differently.

Turning to Tucker who by appearance probably was at least 5 years her younger Sophie stuck out a hand for a shake smiling. "Pleasure to meet you Tucker; in what division on level 3 will you be working?" It’d be fun if she had already run into a close colleague in the lab.

Watching as Aron almost bumped into a newcomer (Cassie) with a camera Sophie’s interest was sparked. "Can you take both magical and muggle pictures with your camera?" She asked curiously. Her family had never been big photographers. They only took pictures at family gatherings and special occasions never to work functions.

She always thought bosses were intimidating. She cleared her throat and looked at her dress to make sure it look presentable. Yup it did. She smiled and said, "Hello Mr. Hawthorne, I am Jasmine, Jasmine Lenkim.." she held out her hand for him to shake. Her shawl drooped off her shoulder and fixed it instantly. She wanted to make a first good impression and all. She said her last name in case he forgot. "I would like to introduce myself to you in person since we have only talking via Owls..." she grinned. She tried to make her tone light but she was totally nervous.

Sophie was about to attack the rest of the skewers on her plate as another woman approached. Overhearing how the blond introduced herself to Aron, Sophie resolved that they'd be new colleagues. Munching down another skewer Sophie cleaned her hand and mouth on a napkin before she adressed the other woman. "Hello, did I hear right? Are you a new employee in Accidents and Catastrophes?" It was best to get it confirmed. With so many people milling about she could have heard wrong.

SPOILER!!: Aron Quote: Originally Posted by sweetpinkpixie They were soon met by yet another one of the new hires for the department. Aron recognized her as well from her application and thankfully had heard a thing or two from Seren, who had taught the girl briefly. He looked at the food table briefly before speaking. "Well, I don't suppose that the wood they are made from it made from a poisonous variety of tree," he mused, taking her words literally with a sarcastic tone. "But I would still only recommend that you eat what is on the skewer. There are Healers about if you dare to be a bit adventurous." And what a way to start off the new year at the Ministry. One of his own employees eating a skewer for the fun of it. "Tucker, this is Sophie. Sophie, this is Tucker. Both of you will be new to the department this year." So play nice and don't be awkward mandrakes about it. Picking up one of the specialty drinks - not really caring which one - his shoulder nearly bumped into one of the newer arrivals to the table. "Op, sorry there. Nearly created my own catastrophe just now," he chuckled. Sophie and Tucker would appreciate the joke, right? He then spotted the camera around her neck. "You here with the Daily Prophet?" Did she want a picture? He could be sure to give her his good side. Taking a plate Sophie grabbed a handful of skewers and put them on her plate.
