 Open to anyone! I'd love to meet some new fraaands :)
It wasn't often that Grae Fairfield had a chance to get all dressed up. So naturally, upon hearing the news of the Ministry Centennial celebration, the young witch had started looking for the perfect outfit. She had settled on a rose gold sequin dress, which she accessorized with a white belt, silver-threaded tights, and black booties. Leaving her white fuzzy coat at the coat check, she surveyed the atrium. They certainly had transformed the place, hadn't they? Not spotting anyone from her department yet, she perused the auction table, her eyes pausing for an extra moment on the Moontrimmer Dlite. Now that was a fancy broom.
Noticing two young women (Alba & Delyth) that she hadn't met before, she decided to exercise some of her social skills. It couldn't hurt to meet some more coworkers tonight, right? She approached them with a smile. "Couldn't help but overhear you gals talking about dessert! That treacle tart looks divine," she said with a laugh. Food was always a good way to segue into a conversation. "I'm Grae Fairfield, Transportation! Nice to meet you both." She extended her hand warmly.

Ryder Medina was not a huge fan of social gatherings. Sure, he enjoyed hanging out with his close friends every once in awhile. But large, formal occasions? Definitely not his thing, especially when he didn't know anyone. He figured it would probably look pretty bad if he didn't show up though, taking into consideration that he was a brand new hire. Brushing his hand over his navy blue suit as he entered the atrium, he took in the scene. Not really knowing what else to do, he grabbed a glass of champagne. It seemed like everyone else was eating or drinking something anyway. Shoving his other hand in his pocket, he headed toward the outskirts of the room. He supposed he would have to introduce himself to some coworkers at some point this evening. |
