SPOILER!!: Hades

Miss. When was the last time she got called that? For real. Might have been Hogwarts. All those 'Miss Cambridge' remarks that got thrown around but it was safe to say she hadn't been a 'Miss Anything' since then--until now obviously. For now she'd ignore it until she could correct him...that wasn't going to become a thing...."You have no idea yet." Because he was new and still didn't fully know how grand this place was. "Though I reckon that depends on your Department. Where you working anyway?"

Naturally she saw the way he tried to hide his displeasure as she took his wand from his hand but by now she was all too use to that. Lots of people were attached to their wand, her included, especially today of all days. "Fancy name you got there." She said, feeding the wand into the machine. 'Fancy' because she didn't really know what ELSE to make of it. Unique? Yeah, that too. "You can just call me Lex."

The young woman spun to face him again while she waited on the machine and ran right into the wink. Huh. Funny that. "Something wrong with your eye?"...Unless it was a wink like Aron's wink just now. You never really knew with strangers. Some had nervous twitches.

SPOILER!!: Adam

It didn't take much for Lex to realize that this one wasn't much of a smiler...or if he was that he simply didn't want to smile for her. "That looks painful." She commented, being quite the observer as she sometimes was. Then he began speaking and things were falling into place more and more. Not English. Probably made everything harder, eh? "Tired." Alexa corrected simply as she took his wand and placed it in the machine. "I'm quite 'tired' of smiling. It's not in my job description and I hardly need it to fight crime." Surely he could understand where she was coming from. Smiling all day accomplished nothing but an aching face and a lot of people judging her.

How many of them would walk away today thinking she was peppy and full of cheer? It was a lie. A big lie that she hoped most of them weren't buying otherwise it could cause problems later on.

Turning to face him again, she noticed at once how on edge he seemed. Kinda....twitchy, y'know? Fascinated, Lex leaned against the desk and stared over at him with avid curiosity. "You're an odd one, aren't you? Expecting something to bust in any minute now?" Would explain the apprehension. For the most part. "Plenty of Law Enforcement on duty, it's perfectly safe." If only on duty didn't mean wand weighing...which, he seemed curious enough about. "It's just a security check. Making sure the wands belong to the owner, making sure there's nothing funny going on in the wood work. All preventative stuff really." Explaining to put his mind at ease a little. Simon could correct her if she wasn't meant to tell.

SPOILER!!: Lysander

As he came closer, Alexa found that there was little she could do but STARE...and stare and you know what? Stare some more. Absentmindedly she took his wand, twirling it between her fingers a little as her hazel eyes locked on his face. Yeah she heard his name and yes she saw what might have been something like a smile but neither could draw her attention away. Eventually she was leaning over the desk, possibly too close while she took in his spectacles.

"Wow.....you've got some big orbs, did'ja know that?" Blink. Blink. What big eyes he had!! Obviously meant he could see her better. How insulting would it be to start holding up fingers and asking him to count?

"I know a spell that'd do the same trick as those glasses...only it'd give you a migraine after a couple hours so I reckon you'd have to give it a break every now and then." Wand weighing? What was that? Lex was much too busy being captivating by the oddity that was the new guy. Curious thing he was. Shame he didn't say much, or smile much for that matter.

SPOILER!!: Kai ^^

And then the woman went and said THAT and Lex was just that much more certain that the possibility of them being friends at all really did exist. "I'll have to keep that in mind." And she would. You could never truly have too many adventure buddies and at some point or the other Lex found herself wandering places alone. Though company wasn't always desired, it was nice sometimes.

The fact even she had tried speaking to her parents about the name didn't surprise her. It was a mouthful in truth. Granted, her entire name was no better and in fact longer but Lex didn't go around introducing herself as Alexa Christina Cambridge. Who even had time for that? Sometimes even 'Alexa' seemed to long for her usage and hardly anyone used it anyway. "Kai. I like it. Short, simple and easy to remember." A relief because Lex wasn't always that great with names to begin with.

Ah but it was time they parted for she could process someone else in the line. Well...she liked to think she sewed enough enough seeds with this one and would accept this with little protest. "Definitely! I'll see you around." GRIN. Especially on Level 3.

He was probably expecting the ministry to be run by old, graying men. Pretty ladies were a very welcome alternative. Smiling tightly so as not to grimace, he handed over his wand. The wand he hadn't parted with since he got it. "Hades Grahn, miss." That was his name. Feel free to comment on his mother's fixation with Greek mythology. "Do I get a name in return?" Wink. Miss.

SPOILER!!: Adam Quote: Originally Posted by Krel Ansell Did she just ask for his wand and demand he smile in the same breath? “Ah…” he noised (for Ah isn’t really a word) before he pulled his wand out from the inner pocket of his leather jacket and passed it over. “Ah-dahm GE-ruwlf ,” he offered as he tried to smile, but it probably looked forced and unnatural and perhaps a bit creepy. “I sure you are sleepy of smiling,” he said in heavily accented (and poor) English. Knowing he probably had mixed up his English again, Adam blushed a pale pink that hit high on the cheek bones. The girl seemed bored and tired of interacting with people. For her sake, he hoped their interaction wouldn’t take long as there was still quite a sizable line behind him. He glanced around, a bit twitchy. Now that he did not have his wand on his person, he felt naked and vulnerable. It was a feeling that he didn’t like, but he tried his best to remain calm and undeterred looking. “You weigh wands because? “ he asked purely out of curiosity and as a way to pass the time while the machine was busy.

SPOILER!!: Lysander Quote: Originally Posted by pinecone Lysander looked up from his crossed arms as he heard a female voice directed towards him with a peppy welcome, his green eyes scanning her face with mild interest. His large dark glasses were there for a reason -- he had terrible eyesight and without them would have had a hard time even seeing the huge desk two feet from his person. As he looked at her through the thick glass, his green eyes appeared even larger than they already were and made him resemble some kind of tall insect. He approached the desk as she welcomed him and swiftly handed over the wand she requested - a twelve and a half inch wand of Ash with a core of unicorn hair. When he glanced up she still had a smile on her face -- he wondered vaguely how long she had kept that smile on for this orientation purpose. How annoying that must've been to smile all the time, all day. "Lysander Norman Ryle," he announced his name in a dull tone, not particularly in the mood to match her energy. Feeling the silence and in turn the awkwardness he often brought to interactions, he flashed a glimpse of his pearly whites in a smile which disappeared as quickly as it arrived and left behind a feeling of mild sarcasm.

SPOILER!!: Kai ^^ Quote: Originally Posted by VRSCIKA This girl seemed rather enthusiastic about her job , the auror part, and that was a good thing indeed. "I should think so, I certainly prefer Aurors around and if adventures are what you are about then we will get along famously." Kai was being perfectly serious about that too. She was one of those children that had spent some time on a leash in her younger days. Sometimes she simply followed her feet and couldn't help herself....... Now her wand.........it was back in Lex's hands so she was a bit more relieved. At least the contraption didn't eat it......When Lex commented on her name she laughed a little. "I've told my parents the same thing. Its as much to write as it is to say." Honestly Kai didn't mind her name , but it was a bit much to consistently use in its entirety. "That is why I don't tend to go by it much. You may just call me Kai if you like." The same amount of letters as Lex, so that worked right? It was like an equal trade. She accepted her wand back and twirled it in her fingers to make sure that it felt the same. "That sounds like a plan. Appreciated, Lex. I am certain I'll see you soon." And then the woman went and said THAT and Lex was just that much more certain that the possibility of them being friends at all really did exist. "I'll have to keep that in mind." And she would.
