January truly knows how to whip people in to shape when it comes to these sorts of matters." And how to scale back because, well, Charles was always one to go a bit overboard when it came to parties. Something that had paid off for the World Cup but they had to maintain a budget, after all. "All possible because of the outstanding team of department heads we have running the country, wouldn't you say?" he chuckled while giving the man's shoulder another firm squeeze before his attention shifted to Miss Swan and he offered her a handshake.

"Games and Sports, if I am not mistaken?" Her application had stood out just a little because his granddaughter belonged to the house of Hufflepuff and was always writing him lengthy letters (of which he always memorized in their entirety) regarding her housemates. "You're in positively outstanding hands there. I personally guarantee it."

There was a bit of a mischievous wink tagged on to the end of that sentence as well.


His smile subtly widened upon Victoria's arrival. "Ah, Victoria. I had just been praising to to one of your new employees. A Miss Swan," he mused while glancing around for that same young lady. "Can I tempt you with a drink?" he inquired as he offered his arm. "I think I saw something with raspberries floating in a bit of bubbly and it looked particularly tantalizing."


Daisy smiled and shook the Minister's hand. "A pleasure to meet you, sir. I am indeed going to be working in Games and Sports in the Quidditch division in public relations. It sounds really interesting. I am looking forward to being a part of the Ministry."

When she saw her new boss Victoria, Daisy smiled and extended her hand. "It is good to meet you." Daisy then paused and couldn't help but look sadly at Victoria because she could see a resemblance to a certain Ravenclaw boy that tragically died during her final year at Hogwarts. "I apologise if I am speaking out of turn but I thought that Thaddius was an amazing student. I'm sorry for your loss."

I also believe there was another petition submitted for allowing magic carpet racing.” At least one had passed across his desk recently, sent along from one of the ambassadors. He’d of course forwarded it to G&S, but with the way things hadn’t been working around the ministry lately, Conley wouldn’t be surprised it if never arrived.

”The bowling tournament was a lot of fun. I particularly enjoyed it.” he said to Daisy. Trying to steer the conversation away from work. ”Do you bowl?”


"Being busy sounds good to me. After all, I was very studious when I attended Hogwarts despite all the incidents that occurred during my time there."

When asked if she bowled, Daisy shook her head. "No I don't. I used to play Quidditch at Hogwarts but an Inferi attack when I was in my Fourth Year stopped me from continuing that. I also don't have time to do much recreational activity. I've just moved to a place of my own so I'm still getting used to the whole living on my own thing."
