To Anyone ♥My Very 1st Tag | ~Filofax:Forever~ | ~Evil Slythie~ | Chris' Caretaker♥ Break time.
Which for Ash, meant that it was time to stretch her legs and take a little stroll around the Ministry. And, since she was still new to the place, it doubled as time to familiarize herself to the layout of the massive building.
Today seemed like a good one to explore the upper levels.
Astara made her way off of the lift, and proceeded down the hallway. Having been somewhat familiar with the Magical Law Enforcement department, she kept going down the hall for once, passing by the Magical Accidents & Catastrophes office and then came across something interesting. "Muggle Technology Centre..." She spoke to no one in particular as Ash read the template on the door. This could be interesting. And so Astara entered the room.
Ash was no foreigner to muggle gadgets, but it was always of interest to see some items which were considered 'relics' nowadays. The jukebox in the corner caught her attention immediately. "Haven't seen one of these since great-grandmother was alive." Ash said aloud as she walked straight towards the jukebox. "Wonder if you work..." She reached inside the small clutch inside her work robes and took out a few muggle coins.
Ash scanned the song selection, and turned the knob located on top to flip the ancient pages.
Finally after a few moments of skimming through the music choices, she picked one entitled "California Dreamin' " By The Mamas & the Papas.
As the song started, Ash found herself swaying slightly to the tune, and glanced around the room again. Yes. This would be a rather nice spot to wind down if her day ever became too stressful. And with a contented smile, Astara popped a couple coins into the vending machine as well for a treat and made herself a cappuccino to boot, before plopping herself down in one of the cushy corner seats and enjoyed what was left of her break.
