"Yes I'm afraid that you did just miss the meeting, but I can fill you in on what happened." Great! Violet thought, she finally felt like she was being useful. "The meeting was to get to know our new Department head, as well as to let all the employees know that we are looking for ambassadors to go to Atlantis and talk to the mermaids about water pollution. The mermaids are really upset and we are hoping to call the situation before things get out of hand." Violet explained to her. "If you are interested in applying all you have to do is talk to Gina. She'll explain the rest of the details." Violet took a deep breath in, she talked much faster than she needed to.

As Elaine listed to Violet, she began to think about what it'd be like working as an ambassador to the mermaids. Her father had died when she was 16 and before then she hadn't really cared to ask what he did at work. Her mother was of no use since she always got magical terminology mixed up and probably didn't really understand what it was. She'd probably try to tell Elaine that her father was a dementor before offering any useful suggestions, just because it sounded familiar. However, Elaine did remember her father talking in different languages at dinner and story time to entertain his kids. And boy did it work! He always told her that their family had a special gift with languages but that you still have to work on it. Elaine wondered if she'd be able to pick up Mermish quickly and if she possessed this gift. Her interest was certainly piqued. The pragmatist in her head said that it was her first day on the job, and that she really enjoyed the job and that it was steady and dependable and that she wouldn't have to spend much time away from her family. She did have a couple questions for Violet though. "Before I go talk to Gina, would you mind answering a few questions? This is my first day here and I love it here so I was wondering if it was even possible to go-especially since I'm not very familiar with how everything is run yet. Also, Would that mean I wouldn't work here in the British Seats department anymore, or is that part of our work here, or in addition to it? I'd hate to leave this job so soon."

Stella relaxed as she spoke, the tension that she'd felt on her first day of the job started to melt away.

"Well, you said you were a part of the British Seats, right? You happen to represent Britain in international affairs of sorts. I'm in a body that regulates Trading Standards. But, as far as I can tell, it's mostly just paperwork." Stella smiled at her little joke. She'd just made her first office-joke!

Elaine laughed appreciatively at Stella's joke. "So do you actually speak any of those languages? Where were your favorite places to go? Do you have any intention of looking into the ambassadorship? That sounds really interesting but I feel like I'm just barely getting settled in here, unless it's part of the job. Then I think it'd be fascinating! Who said your travel had to stop by getting a full-time job?" That was another bonus to the job-Elaine had only heard good things about Atlantis-it's mesmerizing beauty, the hospitality of the merpeople, etc. She'd love to visit there.
