Hehehehe. Fun times!

Paxton tilted his head in amusement as he watched her reaction. He was kind of...expecting it, really. "The pleasure is all mine, Miss Tanner." Yes, he could feel the awkwardness of the moment, but he instantly brushed it off because it would just be an unnecessary barrier to get to know his colleague. Then there goes her pointless shoes, again. Paxton's brain took a full 360 with what she said. Kyleigh must have spent hours picking her outfit for the day, and now that her footwear proved to be inconvenient, she was more than ready to toss it in the water! "...or maybe we could charm it into a more...comfortable pair of shoes?" Was she...good in transfiguring stuff? Hopefully.

The new DH also got confused with the excessive smiling. Merlin, he's got a handful of employees right there. One had the mood of a stormy day, and this one reminded him of spring time. Oh and of course, there's Patrick and Vincent who reminded him of summer. Late night summer concerts, that is. "We should go inside now, I believe? Food awaits." And more people to meet? Speaking of which...

Making his way over he nodded at The Minister as he went. He hadn't actually spoken to him, but he seemed pretty cool. Mhm.

Reaching the dude who had waved (Paxton) he extended his hand. "'Ello. Patrick McAllister. I'm with Transpo." That was how people greeted strangers, no? Cool. And the lady person (Krell) got a wink. Like... a thank you wink. Not to be confused with other winks he gave. Not that he gave too many...Heh.


The awkwardness wasn’t really intentional – maybe it was more because she had seen her ex give her the I’d help you if you weren’t in a conversation look. Yeah, that had been odd. “I was the awkward timide somewhat sporty girl at school” she admitted her slight French accent weaving its way through her words.

“Why thank you, really and yeah considering I was a Ravenclaw for a bit” she grinned and nodded, “yes food does sound wonderful” she agreed and was just about to head in when Patrick walked up.

What was with this place? All of the people were hnnng attractive even her boss and this guy. “H-hi,” she smiled to Patrick. “I’m Kyleigh Tanner, Transpo was well” she grinned at Patrick. “Its nice to meet you both, I however, am starved and am going to head inside for some food” she grinned and started to walk as carefully as possible.

She smiled happy that Mercedes didn't mind working under her. "I promise I'm not a horrible manager." She chuckled, "You could probably ask Benji though, he's the regulations specialist in the department." She didn't think he'd say anything bad about her. She thought she was a pretty laid back manager most of the time.

"She'll be around, Mariel wouldn't miss meeting her new employees. She's a great department head." She couldn't say enough about her boss and well it probably helped that she was her best friend.
Mercedes hadn't talked much about things back home to many many other people except for Chris he got it. He understood and missed where they came from more than anyone. "That's where mine and Cinna's moms grew up. In Florida." Hers and Cinna's moms they were sisters. Maybe she knew that already. Anyway now she was starting to miss home talkling about it.

Mercedes smiled back, "I'm sure you're a great manager." Benji? Benji was the regulations specialist. Okay she would have to remember that one too. Lucky for her Vic could take care of all of these introductions for her. Hopefully.

So it sounded like she had ended up in a good department."Sounds like the department is a fun one to work in." Vic sure seemed to like her job. She was really getting even more excited about getting a job.

And a newbie too! "How do you find London so far?"
Tabitha shook Robert's hand. "Nice to meet you, Robert. Can I call you 'Rob'? Magical Transportation? Congratulations on being the Department Head. Is your motorbike bewitched?"

Tabitha smiled at Paxton's question. "London is amazing. My grandfather, Maurice frequents London so I have a better chance of visiting him."

"You ran off so quickly. Before I got a chance to ask you... can I take you to dinner sometime? Or... be an escort at this Ministry event." GRIN!
Abby felt her chin drop a little. Asking me out ? Really? She gasped like a fish out of water looking at him for a couple of seconds. WOAH, just WOAH.

"You can escort me right now" she said bluntly, turning a light shade of pink "and you can take me to dinner anytime" then she winked at his grin. Interesting.. She squeezed his hand with another grin of her own and took notice in the people that were surrounding him, were not anymore.

There was a girl walking away from where he stood, but there was also a man nearby that not only minutes ago were in conversation with Patrick. She hoped they didn't leave because of her. " I'm sorry, did I interrupt your mingling? You caught my eye earlier and I had to come and say hello.." she finished her drink and put her glass on a nearby table.

Mom says I have no sense of direction, so I packed my bags and right.

Winter Break was EXCELLENT!! He had possesion of his Niece through out, and was just overly excited to be back in the Wizarding World once more. A Beaming smile was lite on the Muscle-Man's face and he almost had a skip in his step. Kirby's head was tilted back as he took in the Archway, so when he finally stopped at it he noticed that there were no Greeters? A TRAVESTY he thought...It seemed custimary for these sort of Parties to have invites!
He wasn't looking for those Fancy Call Out's as he entered. Not much Title in 'PLEASE WELCOME MR. ORSINO KIRBY! RESEARCHER OF STUFF FOR MAGICAL GAMES AND SPORTS!' Maybe he could pull off the Former Groundskeeper Thing, but within the Last Decade WHO HASN'T BEEN the Groundskeeper at Hogwarts? A title that may ring hollow if he attempted to use it anywhere now.

Right well the Towering-Not-Giant stood there in constant thought....Not certain of what to do with himself.

SPOILER!!: Edward Penguin;11675551
Edward saw her smile and wave and that assured him that she was doing ok. He still walked up and whispered in her ear that he was going to see if he could find his department head. He knew how important it was to at least give the impression that he had made an appearance. He didn't want to take away from her meeting new folks. He did however stop and introduce himself to the other gentleman. Oy. I'm Edward Lennox. Pleased to meet you. He reached down and squeezed Krel's hand, just to let her know he was very happy to see her.

Krel returned Edward’s squeeze as she excused herself from the converstation with Enzo who now seemed deeply engrossed with another person from his department. She herlsef had not yet met anyone from IMC and wondered if she was the only new hire. It very well could be that she was as IMC was a very difficult field to generate intrest in. Most Wizards just didn’t care enough about what other countries were doing.

She turned and found herself face-to-face with another male. “Pardon me,” she said putting her professional smile back on her face. :”I didn’t see you passing.” She had her hand on her stomach try settle her startled nerves. “It’s getting quite crowded around the arch isn’t it?” She offered her hand to the male. “I’m Krel, with International Magical Cooperation. And you are?”

Where was the Enthusiam in this woman's voice!? Kirby looked down at her and raised an eyebrow. He saw that she was holding her stomach, probably has butterflies in ther or something. ALSO! She hadn't seen him passing? That was a first!! Orsino Kirby had always felt very VERY Noticable. "It's no issue." The Hawaiin Muscle Builder grasped her hand in his and shook it as lightly as he could, so as to not tear it out of her shoulder. "Kirby." Orsino said politely in response to her introduction. "Or, Orsino. I'm just starting in the Games and Sports Department. Nice to meet you Krel."

He had not realized until Krel had pointed it out, but the Archway really was beginning to get crowded. "Perhaps we should move on then?" he guided his hand in front of himself almost knocking away some other unsuspecting Ministry Worker to make a path out of the Archway.

Krel’s smile widened as the gentleman shook her hand and introduced himself. “Nice to meet you Mr. Kirby, I should have guessed you would be with Games and Sports.” She hoped her comment wouldn’t be taken the wrong way as she walked with him along the path in an attempt to make more room around the arch. “I’m just beginning my employment here as well,” Krel offered hoping the slight German twang she had accumulated while studying and working in Germany wasn’t too noticeable. She did, however noticed that many people were giving the two of them a wide berth. It was unusual for Krel, often she found herself surrounded by people who didn’t notice her and she was perfectly fine with that.

“What exactly will you be doing in Games and Sports Mr. Kriby if I may ask?” She asked when they had reached a less crowded space. Somewhere between Enzo and Kriby, Krel had lost Edward. I t would have been nice to have him nearby, but she was a big girl and could mingle on her own. She’d find him eventually and be able to have a nice chat. Truth be told, she was probably spending too much time with him lately. She turned her thoughts away from Edward and focused on the man in front of her. To do so though, Krel had to look up at him. Kirby was, now that there weren’t so many people around them to deter her attention, a very imposing man and had over a foot of height on her. She couldn’t help but wonder if he was part giant or if he just had really big parents.

Even though physically at the moment she still was on the outside looking into the event itself. There were enough others still wandering around the entrance and congregating there that she wasn’t alone, and besides, she had the two women she was talking to. “At least we wouldn’t be stumbling around alone, right?,” she replied with a smile. “It’s nice to meet you Lara.” If they were going to discover how the Ministry worked together, she decided they hardly needed to be formal. Not to mention she didn’t look significantly older than herself.


“Well that’s a nice surprise,” she added, once it came out that Lara would be working on the same level. That would certainly make it easier for them to hopefully find their way. Plus, it was a happy coincidence that the first person who had approached her was going to be working with her in some capacity. “May I ask what you were hired for?,” she continued, curious. Maybe they really would be working together. “And I haven’t been here long. I’ve just been trying to get comfortable enough to head inside.” It wouldn’t work very well if she made a fool of herself on her first day, after all.
Good. Amythest was the type of person who appreciated company and didn't mind the presence of others or strangers. Always a pleasant trait in someone who was going to be a colleague. Lara's had colleagues who were the opposite and it was not cool at all. Thing were looking very good right now. "Exactly. I don't mind being lost as long as I wasn't alone," she smiled. Because it hardly counted as lost if she had company. Lost was absolutely the worst if alone. But with company it could actually turn into something fun. To go discover mysterious and unknown things with a buddy was fun. Although, here it was not all that mysterious. It was a ministry so it wasn't so hard to guess things.

"I'm the new Senior Undersecretary's personal assistant," she answered. She was going to have to get used to saying that to people. Definitely a long title. And her eyes kept glancing around in search for their boss. Nope, didn't see him yet. Though, was that the Minister over there just a bit ago. There were other people in the way so she could not have been sure. But it made sense that the Minister would be present. "What about you? What are you going to be doing?" Lara knew that being a PA would probably mean seeing less of her level buddies and more of the Senior undersecretary but she still would be seeing the others which was nice.

She was being quiet... was that a good or bad thing? INTERNAL FLAILING WAS HAPPENING. WHAAAAAAA...

And then she spoke again and he beamed triumphantly. "Good! Grand! Brilliant! Well... would you like to go in and look about?" He extended his arm for her to link her own through. He had a DATE now. Whoa. He hadn't had one of those in a long while.

Mingling? Oh...he had been talking to people... who had long since dispersed it seemed. "Not important. Come let's go look around." She was his center of attention now.

Lara knew that being a PA would probably mean seeing less of her level buddies and more of the Senior undersecretary but she still would be seeing the others which was nice.
The conversation hadn’t been going long, yet Amethyst already felt like Lara could very well end up her first friend amongst her coworkers. Even if it was merely out of necessity, both of them feeling a little lost in the new environment. Exploration was always nicer with another person to bounce ideas off of, and she hadn’t had that for a while now. Certainly not professionally, but now she was stepping back into that and company was definitely welcome. Especially when it was from someone who would be just as new to the Ministry as herself. “When you’re not alone, you don’t feel quite as lost anyhow,” she pointed out with a smile. At the very least, it meant you were lost with someone to talk to. If the British Ministry was anything like the American one, it could be very easy to get a bit turned around if one wasn’t careful. Having someone else to find her way with would be nice.

“Oh,” she’d said again, as the question of where Lara was working was answered. “Congratulations.” Victoria had spoken of how she’d be working under Gavin, but Lara would be even closer to the action. So to speak, anyhow. “I’m to be the new administration supervisor. Overseeing the secretaries and messages and such. I guess the office in general, to be specific,” she continued, as the question had been turned to her. It still seemed like her new possible friend had the more exciting job, yet it still meant possibilities of them seeing each other.

All Ezra had to do was tell him was he was getting too personal.

"Hey, Simon,'' Jory responded as the Auror joined them. He was still in awe of the man but not as star struck as he had been when he was a newbie a couple of years ago now that the two were friends. "Good holidays?''

It seemed Jory's companion was a pleasant man who returned the handshake in kind. "Nice to meet you as well," Simon returned politely once introductions were made. "Yes," he confirmed, "Auror first and formost but I also spend time in security as well as serve as a department liaison." Geez, was it just him or did his title and job description get longer each year? As for how they were doing, the former Gryffindor chose to answer diplomatically. "It has its moments."

Simon nodded in affirmation as he turned his attention towards Jory and his question. "Uh huh, it was one of my better breaks," he admitted, having had his fair share in his 28 years. "And yours?" he questioned, returning the favor as he allowed his gaze to flitter around slightly. [/COLOR]


Where did he go? Ezra patted his gelled hair and smiled complacently at his two companions. "Oh, just about everywhere. All across Europe, of course." Duh. He straightened his tie once more. It screamed European, didn't it? As it should. Admire it, yes, yes. He smoothed it before continuing. "I travelled through parts of Asia as well. China, Japan, India, Turkey..." Cough. There was an incident with a camel he didn't need to go into there. Moving on. "A few French speaking countries in Africa. I AM fluent in French, you know. Lots of charity work to be done there." A humanitarian. He was one. Yup. "And then a short detour to the Americas before returning home." Yes. Be impressed. He put on his grandest smile and looked pompously between the two men. They could SEE how lucky they were to be in his presence, yes? Good. "Did you come to work straight from school?" Not everyone had the opportunities he had, you see.

Ah, a man of many trades! He must be important. Ezra dropped his self-righteous grin and stood up as straight as humanly possible. He nodded respectfully at Simon and replied, "Wow, you are a real pillar to the Ministry!" Cue the eye twinkle. Want to get a good impression in with the more important folks, right? Not that he wasn't important himself. Obviously.

"It does have a feminine touch." Did that answer her question? He finally looked at her and away from the flowers that surrounded him.

"Do you like it here?"
"Feminine is a good word...so colourful." No offense but Piper could have easily been the host. Queen feminine.

Charlotte looked around and eyed all the people and flowers surrounding them. " I am not sure yet. The places we have been to before...were very different." Durmstrang and Moscow hadn't been quite as cheery and the brunette wasn't sure they fit into this party? It was their first official kinda day anyway. Maybe it just needed time to get used to it as an outsider. The girl was so excited about the fact that they had made it both that she was thinking positive for once.

"What about you?"

It hadn’t really been much more than a rhetorical question, yet Amethyst still was rather surprised by the answer. It would be interesting to work in that kind of environment again, honestly. That was one thing she couldn’t deny was similar to her previous job. “It seems like I am,” she agreed with a soft laugh. She wasn’t about to deny Victoria that truth, nor the fact she rather looked forward to it. Not to mention what else she might get to experience if she managed to stay for longer than unfortunately had happened in America. “There still is a bit of dressing up here, however,” she commented, as the discussion of what she’d missed over the last few years continued. “At least, some of us seem to have dressed up, yet I can’t disagree that none of us are particularly in formalwear.” The latter half of the statement was rather more intriguing. “Is he? That must lead to amusing stories, I’d think. Being a professor and around the students for months at a time,” she added. Not that she particularly was familiar with what went on at Hogwarts. She read the paper, anyhow.

At least she hadn’t been mistaken as to her superior. She felt relief at that, considering she’d been more concerned with the part in the letter regarding her position than the sender. “Has he made an appearance here today?,” she queried, curious again. Yet she’d smiled at the comment as well. “I’m sure he appreciates your friendship either way.” There needed to be all types in situations like the Ministry, she imagined. She’d certainly met people like she imagined Victoria was talking about before. Luckily, she could work with them as well. “I have to admit I’m relieved to hear that,” she concluded, “It’s difficult enough finding my way back into the workforce without having to work for unpleasant people.” That might lead to questions, but she figured it would end up known eventually anyhow. She couldn’t leave Jemma with Gran all the time, and she knew Parker had work as well.




She smiled hearing the small laugh come from Amethyst. She was part of the ministry now and Victoria was happy to meet her this evening. Her brown eyes looked around as she suggested people were still dressed up. Yes she could agree, she had dressed up as well, but she wanted to look good. As a manager she felt she needed to present herself professionally. "You are right, it seems everyone decided to wear what they chose was appropriate for the evening." Which was fully fine, but she always enjoyed a reason to dress up. "It was black tie last year, so yes no formal wear tonight." Not that she'd be surprised if a few would come dressed that way.

Oh she chuckled with Amethyst comment about the stories. "Well my oldest son is a fourth year there, so yes I hear many stories about the things that go on there even when I'd rather not know." Some of the things she had hears about that school was just not what she needed nor wanted to hear.

Her brown eyes hit the faces yet again, "He'll be here, though I haven't seen him yet, but all the department heads make an appearance at orientation to introduce themselves to their new employees." It was expected she was under the impression at least. "Oh were you at home for awhile?" Was she a mother and possibly a stay at home mom? Victoria could certainly relate to that. She had been one while married the first time.


SPOILER!!: Mercedes

Mercedes smiled back, "I'm sure you're a great manager." Benji? Benji was the regulations specialist. Okay she would have to remember that one too. Lucky for her Vic could take care of all of these introductions for her. Hopefully.

So it sounded like she had ended up in a good department."Sounds like the department is a fun one to work in." Vic sure seemed to like her job. She was really getting even more excited about getting a job.


Victoria knew that Cinna and Mercedes were cousins, but she didn't know which side. So it was Cinna's mother side. She didn't know much about Cinna's family really other then her mother had past away. "Florida was very nice. I think Cinna was there that summer that we went. It was around when Bart first met her." Or at least that's what she thought, it was his first year at Hogwarts at least.

"Well thank you Mercedes but maybe you should form an opinion after you have to deal with me." She chuckled, knowing that she was pretty laid back so she didn't see an issue. Plus Mercedes was taking over her old position and one that she loved dearly so she knew she'd do a good job.

She grinned, "It is, Mariel is a fantastic Department Head and we get along very nicely. There is a game room on our level and a wonderful coffee cart." Those were the important things to know about, well okay maybe not important but the fun things to know about.

Sigh. Next agenda: Arrange the bloody mess called Personnel Records.


He looked over to the girl, “I… Um…” He weakly shook his head, “To be honest since the start of last year work here’s kinda been slipping for me.” Partially for his other job as a musician, part from restoring his home after it had burned down, and the rest because of his backstabbing ex fiancé.

“I’m honestly really hoping to jump back in this year and start working harder, I just got side tracked with a lot of personal issues… And admittedly, I’m pretty shocked I wasn’t fired for all of it.” Vincent shook his head and sighed silently, knowing he had to seem like a fool.

“I know, I have to seem like a complete fool… I just… I just want to make a better start this year.”

So I guess I may have been here for about as long as you have." She was just happy to start new. "Ah I think you should venture around a lot. You can meet new people like me for instance." she pointed to herself and chuckled.


“I’m in the Transportation area...” Ah, so she’d been there a while too, hm? “Where are you at now that you’ve changed areas then?” He was wanting to do that actually, and maybe being around a nice girl would actually make him want to come here more often… make it less like the burdening second choice job and more of a nice place. He paused and chuckled slightly, “Venturing out? That be something rare for me.” Vincent smiled slightly, “I prefer to keep to myself here…” He shrugged slightly, “I’m too quiet for my own good… at least here.” Now with his band? Then he could jump around and be weird and social and all that jazz.

And then... crap. Shaking his head slightly he shook the man's hand heartily. "Nice to meet you... oh thanks. I ate on the Knight Bus. Arguably chips and mango salsa was not a good idea..." Pulling a handkerchief from his pocket he licked it and wiped his face. Crikey what a nightmare. "Did I get it?"


"Likewise, Mr. McAllister." He did sound like he was actually pleased to meet him, right? Paxton was really surprised with how this man carried himself, but maybe he could take advantage of his attitude to make his stay in his Department more interesting. A little chaos should be okay. Though he was bound to have a boring desk job, he will try his best to make it an interesting and fun one. So really, no harm done.

Paxton simply chuckled at the younger man and nodded. "I was actually surprised you didn't use your tie to wipe your mouth." That would have been epic, really! Robert patted the man's back to make him feel that he wasn't offended or anything of that sort. He's a cool boss, see?


SPOILER!!: Penelope!

Plus it looked like lots of people were wanting to talk to him too, so probably time for her to let him be.

"Nice to meet you," she replied with another smile before turning her attention back to Ember.



And hugs were happening now, alright. Penelope hugged her back and grinned. "Cookies sound awesome," she said. Cookies on her first day were DEFINITELY okay with her. This job was just getting better and better all the time.

Ohh, creatures! That had been Atticus' department like....forever ago, hadn't it? Penelope didn't exactly remember. But it was probably a cool department as far as she knew. "Cool! Are pests fun to take care of?" Or get rid of or whatever they did with them. "I'm on level two. YATI." And she tried not to show it TOO much, but she was EXTREMELY excited about it. She'd been working and hoping for this for awhile and it was finally, ACTUALLY happening. For real. It was great.

But then Ember stopped and was looking towards something...? Or someone apparently, once Penelope had followed her line of sight. That was the Minister, wasn't it? Which was...pretty cool, actually. And Ember seemed strangely quiet and stuff all of a sudden, which was amusing. "Maybe you should go say hi to him," Penelope suggested, smirking a little.


Paxton did not want to repeat himself, nor did he want to step in between her and Ember. Meeting and gaining friends were the objectives of the day, and he, as a Department Head won't stop the two from doing just that. With a grin and an encouraging nod, he gave the two a wave and disengaged from the conversation. He's got the whole year to see and talk to them anyway.

SPOILER!!: Kyle!

The awkwardness wasn’t really intentional – maybe it was more because she had seen her ex give her the I’d help you if you weren’t in a conversation look. Yeah, that had been odd. “I was the awkward timide somewhat sporty girl at school” she admitted her slight French accent weaving its way through her words.

“Why thank you, really and yeah considering I was a Ravenclaw for a bit” she grinned and nodded, “yes food does sound wonderful” she agreed and was just about to head in when Patrick walked up.

What was with this place? All of the people were hnnng attractive even her boss and this guy. “H-hi,” she smiled to Patrick. “I’m Kyleigh Tanner, Transpo was well” she grinned at Patrick. “Its nice to meet you both, I however, am starved and am going to head inside for some food” she grinned and started to walk as carefully as possible.


Oh was she? Paxton stuffed his hands inside his pockets and rocked back and forth with the balls of his feet. Interesting stuff. Also, the accent didn't go unnoticed. He did review her bio data when he was given the chance to make changes in his new office, and he knows a thing or two about her being in Ravenclaw, and playing quidditch. Perfect. Robert can definitely assign her to work alongside a French broom manufacturer. Or maybe he can make her a spy?

Plans. He's got them. If only Abernathy was game too, but it seems that he's not up for giving his new position a chance. Shame, really. "Getting rid of things that is of nuisance is always the easy way out, Ms. Tanner. But do consider the other possibilities." Paxton grinned at the young woman. Maybe being a Department Head isn't so bad? He's got life lessons to share too you know?

"Shame on me for holding you up." Paxton stepped back as he allowed his colleague to waddle towards the buffet table. "Please..." he grinned as he gestured his hand towards the entrance. Just...no face-planting, okay? "I will catch up with you lot shortly." Nod nod.


SPOILER!!: Tabitha!

Tabitha smiled at Paxton's question. "London is amazing. My grandfather, Maurice frequents London so I have a better chance of visiting him."


"Robert, Rob, Pax...or Paxton." The new Department Head grinned as he released the woman's hand. "The pleasure is all mine, Ms. Tabitha, and thank you." Maaaaaybe he still has reservations about this DH business, but he was willing to give it a try. Maybe he'd gain more networks in the Broom Industry, and get perks that only a DH can get. Fun stuff, and all that jazz.

"It is, isn't it?" England is his home now. "I was born in Dortmund, Germany but I call Leeds home." he added just in case she wanted to know. Make her comfortable too, yes? That's his job too as a DH. "That's good that you're here then. Grandfathers are always fun to hang around with. That reminds me...I still have to take my grandfather's youngest brother for a motorcycle ride..." Jerome would love it, really.

Oh and...hold everything up. Is that...KIRBY?!


SPOILER!!: Kirby!

Kirby's head was tilted back as he took in the Archway, so when he finally stopped at it he noticed that there were no Greeters? A TRAVESTY he thought...It seemed custimary for these sort of Parties to have invites!
He wasn't looking for those Fancy Call Out's as he entered. Not much Title in 'PLEASE WELCOME MR. ORSINO KIRBY! RESEARCHER OF STUFF FOR MAGICAL GAMES AND SPORTS!' Maybe he could pull off the Former Groundskeeper Thing, but within the Last Decade WHO HASN'T BEEN the Groundskeeper at Hogwarts? A title that may ring hollow if he attempted to use it anywhere now.

Right well the Towering-Not-Giant stood there in constant thought....Not certain of what to do with himself.


The big yellow hulk of Hogwarts was too far from him, but he made a mental note to approach the guy once he's done talking to his new colleagues. He was literally surrounded now, but he will take the time to...maybe play a little prank on Kirby. You know, for old times' sake? Hehehehehe.

If only Williamson was also in the Ministry! Flamsteed was now in Hogwarts, and so is Walton...but KIRBY! Woohoo! This ought to be a fun ride!


SPOILER!!: Vincent!

And now back to more pressing issues. Kirby can wait, but his employee simply can't go unheard. Oh? Slipping? "I see...but would you like to discuss your issues with me? Tomorrow at my office?" He wanted to interact with this young man, really. He looked promising, and he, as his boss would like to help out in any way he can. That was his job. Yep.

Paxton grinned and gave the young man a gentle pat on the arm. "I've asked the higher ups if we can keep you employed," so...basically he owes it to him? "Because I will be needing each and everyone of you who has experience." Paxton nodded and kept his hands in his pockets again. "The issue may not be a big one in the broom industry, but I'd like to tackle it while it's still small. I will be needing you lot, for that." And maybe a trip to one of the Quidditch Games? Totes official business, ahem. Broom experts, you see?

And then she spoke again and he beamed triumphantly. "Good! Grand! Brilliant! Well... would you like to go in and look about?" He extended his arm for her to link her own through. He had a DATE now. Whoa. He hadn't had one of those in a long while.

Mingling? Oh...he had been talking to people... who had long since dispersed it seemed. "Not important. Come let's go look around." She was his center of attention now.
Abby's smile spread even wider as she linked her arm through Patrick's arm. As they started to walk she glanced at his face then back at their linked arms. Hers were exposed and filled with small markings and tattoos, he was very properly dressed, very handsome. Yep, lucky me.

"Uhmm.." she started looking at the people that kept passing by " I hardly recognize any of these faces " she pouted a little "It's been waaaaaay too long since I was here, I'm really glad to whoever had the idea for this party, I'm hoping this will help me not feel like a total outsider when I return to my department" she let out a short laugh and without letting to of Patrick's arm picked up another glass of that pink juicy drink " And you, tell me about you?" she elbowed him gently with their linked arms.

Tyler laughed. Charlotte and her humour. It was funny, she was perhaps the only girl, aside from Piper that he'd been through as much as he did with and she was still around. It said a lot about her..it said a lot about their friendship.

"I'm not going to write it off yet. It is our first day after all but I feel like I'm going to be grumpy a lot." More than usual and that was saying a lot.

"I don't know how to be around people who like giggling and hugging.." He lowered his voice and nudged her.

"Right! Abernathy.. i'm pretty sure Interviewed you once or twice, when you were at Puddlemore. Played Beater myself but only in University." Which was Benji's biggest regret now, not going pro before he was too old. Because he was sure that 28 was too old to go pro. But he also thought if he hadn't maybe he wouldn't have met Carrie, so maybe it wasn't a regret.
Enzo couldn't help but nod because it was just so true. He agreed with this guy one hundred percent of the way. Maybe even more like one thousand percent. It's like him and this random person knew what it was like to think like one another because a lot of simple minded people didn't think so at all and always would try to change his own way of thinking when it wasn't going to work at all.

"I'm pretty sure I remember seeing you around a bit." He bit his lip slightly. He had to of been interviewed by this man at least once or twice in his ten year professional career. "You did now? Why didn't you ever go Pro?" Boy did he feel like an idiot for ever leaving because now he wasn't sure about a serious desk job such as this one. "I was on Puddlemere and I was also on an American team for the start of my career." He wasn't an American but it was an honor to have played on their team because it was a great team to start out on and the friendships that he had made really helped out.

"'Rob' it is then. You can call me 'Tab' if you'd like. I work as the Ministry Events Coordinator which means I get to help organise events such as holiday parties,"
Tabitha replied with a smile.

"I love travelling with my mother's side of the family. I can be myself around them but my dad's sort of the family are mortal so I have to hide my witchcraft which can be tough,"
she sighed.

Aahh so he was in the Transportation area. She smiled and thought it was a cool place to work in. Ah onto his question, "I am at Accidents and Catastrophes now. I changed from the Environmental Protection." She hoped she didn't sound bad changing fields. But she wanted to spread her wings and go elsewhere. He was quiet...she doubted that. "I highly doubt you are quiet. I am sure there is an outgoing person somewhere in there. Would you believe I hate fancy parties like this. I'd rather be home and doing my own thing.." she shrugged. "Come on venturing out can be fun. Have you check the croquet game over there?" she said pointing. "It sounds like fun.." she said looking at it. "You can still be your quiet self.." she added.

He wasn't an American but it was an honor to have played on their team because it was a great team to start out on and the friendships that he had made really helped out.
This was nice, what department did this guy work in? Benji was sure that he had to have been put in Games and Sports, but maybe not? Did he say what Department he was? Maybe he was..

"My father convinced me it was a bad idea, he said something along the lines of 'Once you're old you won't be good at much else' He also mentioned cutting me off so i ended up taking a job at a Quidditch Magazine in California for a few years.." Sure it was something he wished he'd have done now, but he loved his life. "Ahh so you started in America? What did you think of it, like i said i was there for a few years." How did living there compare to good old England, Benji loved them both but in different ways.

Where did he go? Ezra patted his gelled hair and smiled complacently at his two companions. "Oh, just about everywhere. All across Europe, of course." Duh. He straightened his tie once more. It screamed European, didn't it? As it should. Admire it, yes, yes. He smoothed it before continuing. "I travelled through parts of Asia as well. China, Japan, India, Turkey..." Cough. There was an incident with a camel he didn't need to go into there. Moving on. "A few French speaking countries in Africa. I AM fluent in French, you know. Lots of charity work to be done there." A humanitarian. He was one. Yup. "And then a short detour to the Americas before returning home." Yes. Be impressed. He put on his grandest smile and looked pompously between the two men. They could SEE how lucky they were to be in his presence, yes? Good. "Did you come to work straight from school?" Not everyone had the opportunities he had, you see.

Ah, a man of many trades! He must be important. Ezra dropped his self-righteous grin and stood up as straight as humanly possible. He nodded respectfully at Simon and replied, "Wow, you are a real pillar to the Ministry!" Cue the eye twinkle. Want to get a good impression in with the more important folks, right? Not that he wasn't important himself. Obviously.


The man's demeanor told Simon he was a bit into himself, enjoying Jory's interest in the tales he told. He might have simply moved on himself but he'd rather not abandon his co-worker to whatever was said. Ezra certainly was a world-traveler and quite proud of his knowledge of French. Which made Simon wonder why was he working in the Minister's office? International Cooperation seemed a better fit...unless he truly was all about the attention.

He noticed the change in the man after he explained himself and his position and inwardly felt a tad self-conscious. The auror turned security and department liaison wasn't doing it for the notice. "Well I try to help out where I can," he answered casually leaving it be. That had been the reason he had stepped forward for both tasks. Well the latter one. The other had namely been Emily's offer and he had ran with it.

"Perhaps we should move inside," he finally suggested ready to continue on. Plenty of other stuff and people to grab their attention further.

~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ It be like that sometimes.

It was safe to say Jory was SUPER IMPRESSED with all of Ezra's travels. Not that he was going to tell Ezra that. Just look at him looking all pompous and what not. Even was not going to be getting that much attention from him. The public and it's cameras gave the man enough of that already. Still, Jory liked the guy. Must be the hair thing. They had that much in common. "Straight from Hogwarts,'' the YATI confirmed. "Didn't want to waste time, you know.'' Nope. Becoming an Auror had been his number one priority after graduating from school.

Jory was curious about Simon's holiday. His co-worker seemed happier than usual. He smirked a bit. There must be a girl involved. Oh yeah. Inside. Jory had totally forgotten about there. Besides, he was hungry. He nodded at Simon's suggestion. Where was Ronnie anyway? He didn't fancy hanging around here alone.

Or at least that's what she thought, it was his first year at Hogwarts at least.

"Well thank you Mercedes but maybe you should form an opinion after you have to deal with me." She chuckled, knowing that she was pretty laid back so she didn't see an issue. Plus Mercedes was taking over her old position and one that she loved dearly so she knew she'd do a good job.

She grinned, "It is, Mariel is a fantastic Department Head and we get along very nicely. There is a game room on our level and a wonderful coffee cart." Those were the important things to know about, well okay maybe not important but the fun things to know about.
She didn't really talk much about her parents anymore. It was getting to be close to a year since the accident. She didn't talk about that much either. Of course, when her and Chris started getting more serious she had told him. That was the last time she had spoken about them or the accident. Cinna and uncle Camwas the only family. She had left. "I've never been, actually." She nodded if Bart was there Cinna was probably there too. They were kind of like that.

Mercedes laughed a bit. "We'll see if my opinion changes." Though she doubted it would. She seemed laid back and all. Just do your work and everything would be fine. "This is my first job. I'm completely nervous." Should she admit her nerves to her manager like that? Probably not.

Coffee cart? Good. "Something to wake me up in the morning." Exactly how early did she have to come in again? She was taking a few classes at the uni. So she maybe up half the night working on class work. So coffee Yes that was a good thing. The game room too that sounded cool. Now she wanted to ask Chris if they could get a pool table. Glow in the dark pool, anyone?
