"Hi. I don't know if you HEARD me before. So.....HIIII!" she squeaked. "Ember Brighten. PEST CONTROL!" she put her hands on her hips in super-hero fashion...because PEST CONTROLLER was almost like a superhero. For the little pests....and for the people PLAGUED by pests. Ember was happy to help!

What.
Alana jolted once again as the girl screamed loudly at her with a blaring HIIII and she rubbed her ear for a couple seconds afterwards. She HAD said hi. Was this girl crazy? Obviously. She had to be.
W-wait. Did she just say pest control? Alana couldn't help but try to stifle a laugh because how could she control pests if she was one herself? Oooh, burn. "Alana Ritter. An unspeakable at dee department ov Mysteries." She said, holding out a hand for the girl to shake. "And vat do you do at dee pest control?" Did she really want the girl to know? Eh.

Instinctively, Lex's eyes fell to the floor at the mention of it being ruined if she were to hypothetically get killed there. Funny how she'd actually forgotten about that and about the fact that someone would be in charge of cleaning it after. "Is it some kind of contract? Or an unbreakable vow they make you lot sign when they employ you?" That might have been why she wasn't allowed to say.
"How do you even apply for a job like that if they don't openly say what they have and are all super secretive?" Spirit was definitely something to have in all lines of work, at least that's what Alana thought. Hopefully this girl didn't have too much spirit or else Alana felt bad for Lex's co-workers. "'M also very excited to get started. I hav yet to meet someone who I vill be vorking vith. It seems like only MLE people are here." She said, looking around them.
Contract? Alana never had signed a contract or had made an unbreakable vow...yet, but she wouldn't let Lex know that. The more mysterious the better, right? Or maybe she just liked messing with the younger girl. Heh. "Somezing like zat." She smiled. Her next question though got her stumped and she simply shrugged. "Zat is top secret too."

"A magical product tester tests any foreign made wizarding object for any faults that may deem it unsafe. I've got to make sure the item functions properly by checking such things as the parts, the charm work on the item, etc," Carol replied. Her face then grimaced.
"I sound like an instruction leaflet," Carol said, laughing slightly. So she was right.
Alana laughed a little as Carol said she was an instruction leaflet. "Vell zat is the only zing you're going on. You haven't vorked yet so zat is vats in your mind." She nodded. Alana didn't really have an entire idea of what is was going to be like working as a charmist, but she hoped it would be fun. "'M not allowed to say vat my job is, I'm an unspeakable." She nodded. "It is cool though...I hope." She smiled.
"So do you liv here, in London? I just moved from Germany to here." SPOILER!!: Annabelle Quote:

The sound of high heels heading towards the buffet table. Fixing her, now curly purple and magenta hair behind her ears. Annabelle Blanc readjusted the DMLE badge on her shawl over her dress. It was orientation time her at the Ministry, and the new Personal Assistant and Liaison needed to meet and greet her fellow co-workers. Seeing the hustle and bustle of people, the woman looked down at her left hand. She saw the painful reminder of her first year at Hogwarts. A bite mark from an Imp...very painful. Gently rubbing the mark she continued on.
Click clack! Click clack!
Annabelle didn't want to start any conversations right this second, but wouldn't mind if someone tried to start a conversation with her. Looking at the marvelous selections of food, she gently and delicately took some of the vegetable quiche and smoked salmon volovants. Mmmmm. They smelled amazing. Taking a tiny bite of the volovant she smiled a bit shyly with delight. It tasted as good as it smelled! This was definitely going to be a good night.
"Wonderful." She whispered to herself, a light French accent caught in the air. She gazed upon the selection of drinks as well. After a long and hard decision, she reached out for one of the flutes with elderflower wine in it. With a delicate and steady hand she lifted it up and gave it a swirl. Taking a small whiff of it, she knew it would be as good as the food. Alana continued sipping at her deep orange punch out of her crystal goblet when she heard someone say something to her right. She turned to see another woman with extravagant hair looking at the food.
"How is dee vine? I zink dee punch is a leetle too citrus-y for me." She said, in her German accent. SPOILER!!: Penelope Quote:

This was only her second time at a Ministry event, but she could tell the food was always gonna be awesome. Thank Merlin, because that would definitely put a damper on this whole event if the food was terrible.
But what to choose first? Always such a hard decision. Hm... Alana turned to grab some more of the chicken sliders and watched a younger girl seem to debate on what to have. "Dee chicken sliders are very delicious. I recommend those...and maybe ze deep orange punch. I have yet to try ze vine, but I zink I might have to." She said, giving her a small smile.
