She wanted to let him down kindly. "Oh no thank you.." she told him. "I am just here to get my wand checked out." she motioned her head towards the desk. Turning to the woman who he had impulsively waved over Logan said "Oh all right, fine." Slightly disappointing but it showed that the woman was sensible and cautious which in these times were valuable traits according to his mother. Nodding he added. "I’m supposed to get my wand checked out too today. I'm a new employee in Accidents and Catastrophes." Gesturing to the machine he asked "Have you got your wand weighed by that machine before? Is it safe?" SPOILER!!: Simon, Aron, Lynley Quote:

"Excuse me...may I see one of those?" he asked, hand already ready to take it off the man. Cue suspicious law man checking to make sure something wasn't off. Quote:

"Had you? Well good." She said with a glance back at the..medallion boy. And how was she what? The other department head was just as bamboozled by this guy, too, then it seemed? "...Medallions, apparently. I don't trust them. Or him." she said bluntly, but more to mess with the young man. He looked harmless. Lynley just smirked wickedly, though, and brushed a stray strand of her hair from her face. "Where's security? We should have these checked." Quote:

And she already knew this fellow? Had she been practicing her Memory Charms on him and turned his brain all shrivelfig-like?
Fuzz monkey? He didn't want to know. He really didn't.
Eyes back on the new recruit, he slowly reached for the medallion and took it just to humor the bloke. "And how, exactly, is this supposed to protect me?" he questioned as his voiced mixed with that of the one belonging to the new Transportation Head, blue eyes darting back towards him.
"Here, knock yourself out," he said, tossing the medallion he had just been offered to Simon was a lazy heave over his shoulder.
In Logan’s eyes the brunette in the colourful dress was after hearing and seeing her reaction to his medallions clearly the last person he should have approached with his precious medallions but he couldn’t exactly do anything about that now. She seemed to be the impersonation of the wicked witch of the west in the bed time stories his mother had read to him when he was younger and that never boded well. The woman was rude and cold but hopefully not evil. It was wise to tread cautiously regardless.
Deciding to answer the rude woman and the man by her side Logan spoke in his own defence eyes glancing from one to the other. "I created these medallions with the help of a skilled charms developer during my previous employment as junior obliviator for the French Ministry of Magic. All the medallions have been tested by charms experts at the French ministry and have been found to be completely safe, regulated and free of curses."
Eyes resting on the brunette he added fighting to keep his calm. "I would never ever bring anything evil to my new work place. And to suggest that I would try to infiltrate this ministry is absurd. I’m here to start my new job as Obliviator on level 3 which my big sister Hazel can attest as well as Margret." In his head he added. If I had wanted to infiltrate a place like this I certainly wouldn’t have done it by raising attention to myself.
"These medallions are just charmed to give better protection for example if you run into a shady character when you head home and struggle to find your wand. With just one word you could get the medallion to make it seem like you are surrounded by a pack of howling wolves, which in a tight spot can be pretty handy. But honestly the medallions are harmless and just for a bit of fun. There is nothing evil or sinister about them." SPOILER!!: Big sisters and Simon Quote:

Family insults were never really insults - or at least, they weren’t with them. Heh. Part of having such a big family, really. Especially a crazy one like hers.
With a grin, she shook her head at Lo. ”No, net yet.” Obviously. Duh, why did she say that? Oh well, it was said now. ”Of course. We’re taking over.” Well, obviously not really they were only three workers but still - it felt amazing to be working together with Lo and Mammy - especially since she was getting to join Jazz in Mysteries again. Hehehe. She was work!hooome.
”Actually, she’s got a good point. What are they?” She asked after he had finished talking to the other woman (LYNLEY), letting go of Mammy’s hand to go to her brother, waiting with a hand out until he gave her own. Hehe, thanks bro. She turned it over in her hand, grinning at him. ”Can I have this one?” She asked.
She looked at Mammy slightly, wondering if she should be making a better impression… Who was this man? Hmm… She guessed she would soon find out. ”This is my younger brother, Logan Entienne.” She told Aron, wondering silently if having a name he would realise there was nothing to be suspicious about. He was just excited to ber here.
Hazel looked up as she noticed one of the younger men approached them, probably about Logan’s age actually, asking him to see one of the medallions. She raised a single eyebrow, but said nothing as she stood with her brother and her partner. Wife? Heh. Whatever, Mammy. Smile. She had just heard a few people questioning him about the medallions, so perhaps it was about that. But still, didn’t they realise they were innocent.
Right? She eyed Logan. They were safe right, Lo? Hmmm.
Ha, before Logan could hand over another medallion, the man who knew Mammy gave him his one. Perfect. Thank you Mister - though, that meant that he didn’t get to keep his. Weird. Oh well.
Smiling, Hazel gave the name man a smile. ”Hi. I’m Hazel, and this is Logan - and you probably know Mammy already.” She said, motioning to the brunette once again. Okay, so it was her job - as always - to smooth over new situations. Yup, just as well she liked social situations. And she eyed the clearing queue’s wistfully, before she resolved herself to waiting for Logan. No way she was letting her baby brother get into trouble before he had even STARTED his job. She looked at Mammy, and gave her a small nod, and a slight motion to her brother. She would understand. Smile. [/color] Quote:

"Pfft, in your dreams," she said, lifting her head from Leza's shoulder as she inspected the medallion from the foot or so they were away from it. 'Course she wanted one, but not in front of her boss and especially not when it was attracting unwanted attention. As Leza let go of her hand, she took the short moment to nonchalantly move to Logan's side.
Ahem, "You have more of those, right?"
A shudder ran down her spine from hearing her full name. Oh god. "Please, Boss, just...just Mary is fine, please," she glanced towards the woman next to her with a glare in her eyes. Don't even.
"Perhaps," Mammy tilted her head to the side slightly, staring at the man. Have they met? Her brain was too fuzzy from sleep still to remember. She needed COFFEE. "Though you'll have to excuse this one here," she gestured to Logan over her shoulder with her thumb, "Never did have a good grasp on the proper way to make friends. Honestly can't hurt even a fly. I'm sure you'll have tons of fun inspecting that medallion...or, you know, not."
Since there was probably nothing wrong with it and all. Quote:

Hazel....Logan...and Mammy. Simon was figuring the comment about the last was directed at Aron since he himself didn't know the woman. Yep...returning employee the department head confirmed. At least the elder man seemed as skepical about the necklace's power. Defense in the Ministry wasn't needed...by jewelry and he was in no way a fan of items like it.
"I daresy there are better ways to defend yourself," he remarked, handing it back. Before Logan could say anything else his big sisters sort of came to his defence in their own unique ways. Hazel even took the liberty of introducing him to everyone. He wasn’t sure if that aided or made everything worse for him. Extracting two more medallions he handed one to Hazel and the other to Mammy.
As he gave Mammy hers, he leaned in to whisper quietly. "You got one with a skull motif that you like. Just don’t show it around." If she did it was highly possible with these people who took this way more serious than it was and turn it into something really bad.
Accepting the medallion back from the man who had joined in to inspect the necklace Logan commented to him. "That is true. I however only wanted to combine something pretty with something useful." Taking a step toward Hazel and Mammy he said to the group surrounding him in general. "I'm sorry if I caused any offence. I had just created something nice to look at that I had charmed to be useful and that I wanted to show off and giveaway. I really meant no harm and the medallions are truly harmless themselves. I just wanted to do something fun on my first day." Logan was wise enough to know when it was high time to apologize to people and instead of burying his head in the sand.
