Penelope smiled as her treats were accepted. She turned to place her half-eaten bun atop a bit of scratch paper on her desk, then picked up a sheaf of papers that were piled up in her in-box, a few of them rising up in the air to get her attention. Turning back to her co-workers she began to talk with them, alternately looking at her papers and up at whoever she was talking to. Every once in a while, she levitated a document over in her "To Do" pile; others went in the "To Be Filed" box. Now and then she muttered a spell under her breath and the offending document exploded with a brief and tiny flame, then disappeared from existence, leaving only a thin trail of smoke behind.

Well, Septimus, how is the internship going, eh? Ah, they've got you doing paperwork, have they? Well, that's part of the job, too. And you never know what you'll find in there--a lot of interesting things have come to light because someone was paying attention. Let me know if you need anything, then." Poof! went another document.

"Wotcher, Levi--how's that daughter of yours, then? Bet you're glad to be in the home office for a bit, so you can spend some time at home. But I know you--you can't stay here long. What do you have in the works next?" Penelope briefly looked down from Levi's face and started to sail a document over to be filed, but then stopped and looked at it for a moment longer, a small frown forming between her brows.
