 Bathes in Maple Syrup | Dancing Lobster | Mrs. Charlie Weasley | Seneca's Beard | That's So Fetch
Frankie was on his way out of the Ministry. The day had been moderately uneventful. A few things to check up on in the morning, a bag of crisps had been sneakily devoured before Bain walked in, and there was paperwork galore. He was quite glad to be done with the latter and was ready to head home to his wife and kids.
As he walked through the atrium, a noise registered in his mind, one that he hadn't heard in the space in what seemed like forever. Then he saw the flash of lights from the fireplaces, which were hard to miss. "About bloody time. Took long enough!" the Auror said aloud to the dude who stopped in the middle of the traffic flow. He was quite pleased with this development. Waiting on that phone booth every day really tested what little patience the former Gryffindor had.
Then he noticed the Transportation head standing there. He, uhh, hoped she hadn't heard his comment. She was likely the one that fixed all of this, right?
"Congrats on getting the floo to work again," he said to the woman after making his way over to the floos. The Auror's attention didn't remain on her very long when he took in the sight of Professor Department Head Flamsteed. Frankie couldn't help but notice that the man looked a lot thinner than the last time he had seen him. Was he ill? "You doing alright, sir?"
