Just then, the door opened, bringing it with it the smell of fresh coffee. Glancing up, Allie was met with Martel D'Isigny, who had sure enough brought her a steaming cup of coffee. "Oh, why thank you. This is just what I needed," she said, giving him a small smile before taking a sip of the drink.
As soon as was done, she placed her cup on the desk, and then turned her attention to Martel. She watched expectantly as she waited to hear what he had to say.
Martel watched her drink the coffee with an intense sort of interest and then relaxed once she sipped it.
"I have had a request from a certain magazine wishing to feature you on their cover. I believe they are doing a feature on 'Inspirational Witches of Britain' and, after all, who else is more inspirational than the Minister of Magic?" Martel began the order of business. He glanced around and tapped a copy of a nearby copy of Witch Weekly.
"And I see you are already familiar with the magazine in question." He smiled quietly and sipped his own coffee.
"And I spoke with that individual we talked about earlier -as you requested- the man is quite graciously willing to offer his aid and assistance to you where ever you require it, though he is very busy, and very important, he has time for you, Minister Carlton." Martel's voice was brimming with respect, vibrating richly and the rhythm of his speech was almost hypnotising.
