Sooooo?! it challenged. Shut up. She waved awkwardly again, at a loss for something to say/do/be silent. Yeah well hun, you're gonna be upset to know that I'm you. Nessa's voice thought back. ...I. Don't. Care. Shut. Up!! and then the voice stopped........ Hi there!!....Oh my gosh!!! Leeeeeeeave!! and it did.

She laughed lightheartedly at the way he described the whole muggle child situation. Her eyes narrowed in confusion when he asked not to tell the... "Not to tell the---what?" she asked. She never figured out the second half of his sentence, for he'd abruptly stopped and moved on to some other topic of conversation.

She left the matter to be and returned his handshake. "Oh...dear Merlin! Junior Assistant, hmm? How odd that you and I randomly meet on a floor other than our own," she said, with a laugh. "I haven't had the opportunity to make the rounds with introductions yet---as you can clearly tell, I assume." At least she could be sure of one thing---the only other level one employee besides she and Minister Taylor seemed to a kind, welcoming man. It relieved her to realize she'd more than likely always get along with this man.
Claudian chuckled out loud and did a brushing gesture with his hand as if to indicate non-consequence. "Don't worry, Under Secretary Carlton. This job keeps us in the Minister's office moving around quite a bit. The faces will be all the more familiar as time goes by." He spotted the girl waving and he acknowledged with a small wave back. "Perhaps, that's why this is only our first encounter, Ms., ...Is it 'Miss' or 'Mrs.' Carlton? Let us hope that does not become the standard, though as my writing is hardly what I'd call legible." He said being more self-critical than honest.

"You've been here a while though, aye? Have you meet Mr. Trumbull and Miss McArdle? She's head of Education."

He turned his attention for the moment towards the young lady who just entered the corridor. "Hello, there. New to the Ministry?" H'mm. Maybe they could help her get acquainted.
