Aron made me LOL legit when I read this on my lunch break :D SPOILER!!: quoted people <3 Kensi wasn't reacting. She really, really wasn't reacting. This was worrying, and Wes was no Healer. Hell, he hadn't even been able to fix the bump on Izzy's head when the Cult had been attacking the Ministry. The department head wore a somewhat helpless expression as he glanced from Kensi to Melissa and back. Then the 'zombie' spoke! And appeared to be fine, all of a sudden. What the...? "Miss Whitworth," he said quietly with relief, putting a hand on her shoulder as if to see if she was real. "Are you... okay? You were just SEIZING on the floor a second ago... Melissa here was only behaving the way she'd been trained too in a crisis. No one knew what was going on with you." Of course, all his MLE people were well trained, and that explained why they were suddenly forming a squad around the scene. Containing it, as it were. He nodded to Aron, almost cracking a grin at the way the man was so Wes looked to Julia, and then Roxanne, who had appeared out of the blue. Merlin, these younger ones were good at sneaking around. "So she's not the only... drooler in the Ministry. I don't know what to think, other than to wonder if this is some kind of contagious virus." His eyes flicked to Aron. "Think you could figure that out, mate?" As for Melissa... Wes offered her a rare smile and slid back into his seat, resting his hand by his fork again. "You did what you thought, Ms. Potter, and were very brave about it, too. Thanks. I'm sure Whitworth will be thanking you once she collects herself." Yes that was a hint toward the angry redhead. |
Maine and Manolo! Quote:
He looked at his cousin. "Manolo, this is my fiance, Maine LeBlanc. Maine, this is my cousin, Manolo. He just got a job at the Ministry." Charmayne, legally. But Leo knew she preffered Maine. She looked cold. Was she cold? He shrugged out of his suit jacket and offered it to her. He was a little warm in it anyway. |

Sorry it took me so long :3 Quote:

As for the other guy, Katherine decided she didn't like him much. The brunette found it frustrating when people ignored her or doubted her knowledge about seizures. "It doesn't seem like he's having the time of his life, either." She just gave him a cold look, the pain from the heels wearing her patience thin. Katherine wanted to flee, leave these two men to their misery, but something about the skinny guy's appearance made her hang around longer. That and the odd questions. Drooling? Vomiting? She exchanged a glance between the two, eyebrows knotted in confusion. "For your information, you seem ill, Skinny. I suggest you go easy on the food." Katherine laid a hand on his shoulder sympathetically, noticing his reddened eyes. |
nuh uh! *points to HP wiki* Quote:
BOUNCING BLUEBERRIES! This woman wasn't dead already, was she?! "Unless there is a new version of The Dark Forces: A Guide to Self-Protection out that I haven't read." Cause that book had told him that zombies were only in the Southern part of America. And was he really standing here arguing over the locations of zombies when there was drool to be collected? So uncool of him. Quote:
In the meantime he would hold on to his long cotton swabs and get to collecting the drool. Quote:
Long instrument in hand, Aron approached the not-dead-so-therefore-not-an-inferi woman and eyed some of the drool still trickling down her chin. "Miss Whitworth, I'm going to need to collect a sample of that..." he said, nodding towards Wes for a moment before poking the woman GENTLY with the cotton end and scooping up some of the drool. Into a vial that went Eyes back on Wes again, and the others who had shown up, Aron eyed his samples before putting them in his bag. "How many other people have been infected? Who? I should probably take samples of saliva from them as well...maybe even some blood if it is a virus." He was suddenly reminded of all those Muggle video games he had played - the ones with the zombie apocalypse and had way too many sequels made than was really necessary. Muggles liked to do that - drag things out. But he was getting distracted. "Will certainly try," he confirmed as he readied more cotton swabs. Maybe he should collect drool from those not effected as well. You know, to compare. Did Mr. Head Cabbage want to offer up some drool? |
Anyone? Ellis walked towards the buffet area as she was starting to get quite hungry and peckish so she decided to nosey around and see what kind of food and drink was on offer. She looked over and saw the fancy seating so grabbed a bunch of foods put on a plate and a drink and sat down at the ministers office table, at her assigned seat with her name stated on the tag. |
Playing catch up. Internet connection was really bad yesterday SPOILER!!: Julia Melissa turned to the woman talking to her. It was Julia, if she remembered correctly. She first shook her head to clear it before realizing that the action could be a sign that she wasn't okay, so she quickly nodded. "Oh...hi...Julia. Yes I'm fine. No she didn't scare me. I was just worried that had made a mistake disarming her. That maybe she in fact, was trying to stop somone else." Melissa didn't want to think about the last time when she second guessed herself when it came to disarming someone, and in that situation, things didn't turn out as well as it did here. "Thanks for asking though. I do hope that she's okay." Melissa said looking at the red-haired woman. SPOILER!!: Boss Man Ferguson Melissa blinked in surprise when her Department Head thanked her. She hadn't messed up...this time. "Thank you for saying that Mr. Ferguson. I just hope that Ms. Whitworth feels better soon." She looked around for Alex. "I don't think that she's the only isolated case, Sir. I recall seeing another man, who looked to have the same symptoms as her." Melissa informed him. |
anyone, she won't bite. Dacs headed over to the buffet and seating area. Not that she needed to eat. She just had to get away from annoying half sister. Looking around, everyone seemed to be having an ok time. She was even seeing a few Level 2 and of course more new faces. Dacs would talk to whoever but her real intro came in the office. It's not really her style to just walk around and talk. She merely observed. She walked by the buffet table and headed to most obvious department table in the room, MLE. Shaking her head, she took her seat where she saw her name tag neatly placed. |
Melissa, Bossman, Drool collector, and randomwoman! SPOILER!!: omg so MANY PEOPLE! There was a new man...approaching..Kensi glared at him a bit..."You want my drool?! Someone already has that!" she snapped, her eyes reflecting the irritation she felt...she wanted to go home. And not to her apartment, HOME home, to Montana. She wanted her mammaaaa! And these people were NOT helping...NOT NOT NOT. "I like my drool." She grumbled, not really...willing...to give him any..just because she was in an AWFUL mood. HMPH. She turned to Melissa and her expression softened a bit..."Right. No, it's fine..it's just..imagine waking up and seeing someone hold your wand...it's scary and weird," she explained, pocketing said wand for now. Hmph. Melissa was nice....and not being ANNOYING. *eyes drool man* She then shot a glare at Bossman...then retracted that look...because..he was a bit scary...even she couldn't deny that..."Well of course I'm NOT okay...I made an appointment with you? Remember?" honestly, he had to. It wasn't until AFTER the holidays though..she couldn't remember if it was for tomorrow...or next week...hopefully tomorrow...but...was that necessary since she was speaking with him now? Eghhh! "It was..concerning..this." THis, as in, her stupid ILLNESS. DIES?!? Kensi's mouth dropped..."No! I'm too pretty to die! You don't-I won't-WILL I?!?" she cried, hysterical...she couldn't die! She never even got the chance to talk to her parents! PLUS, she had an awesome job! How?!? She looked between the two men...Merlin...she was freaking out now! And some RANDOM woman....why was she here?! Why were people crowding around her?!? WHY?!?! She wanted to flee, her flight instincts kicking in...could she leave?! She didn't much fancy being the eye of the attention right now...for this...maybe some other time, a PRETTIER time?! RIFUB13IUFBB OOOYY! Kensi slapped his hand away..but he had already gotten his sample...she GLLAAAARED at him ..."I never said you could do that! UGH!" she cried, stomping her foot...frustrated with everyone..EVERYONE. "You can't do that without MY permission!" Maybe she needed a calming potion. Because she was going insane. INSANE. |
oh, oops! Text Cut: only 3 this time *whewx2* Contagious virus? So she wasn't the only who had thought of that then. But if that's what it was, then she had been around it twice now. Maybe she'd better be making herself an appointment with a Healer just to be sure she wasn't infected....? Inferi? She had actually forgotten that those had even existed until just now. She wasn't about to say that out loud though. Nope, instead she offered a thoughtful look, accompanied by "Maybe so. Hmm." And then they were back on the other Zombie girl seemed to be getting even angrier by the minute. Which Roxanne took as a sign to back off. Who knew if the girl would start to attack next, and she didn't want to be infected for reals. Especially not now that everything was going well for her. "Hope you feel better soon," she told the girl before walking off to find her own seat at the table. Merlin, how could she ever have thought the Ministry could be boring?! |

They needed to get a grip on the situation, stat. Forget investigating de Talone; this internal investigation took precedence. Quote:
SPOILER!!: omg Kensi xD "Whitworth," Wes barked, dropping his fork with a clatter and turning a ferocious glare her way. "Straighten up and calm down, now, or you'll be out of here and in your own private ward in St. Mungo's faster than you can say zombie." He held his glare-stare until she stopped the stomping and crying, his eyes only briefly flicking to Aron and back to Kensi. "Aron here's just doing his job, and trying to help you in the process. So if I were you, I'd shut up and comply, or we can have you booked and processed for obstruction of justice before we ship you off to the mental health experts. Got it?" Now, for their 'appointment.' "Yes yes, I remember," Wes waved a hand. "What about it? I'm trying to solve it now, aren't I?" In the meantime, yes, he had to be a jerk and insist that she continue showing up to work. "Didn't you have your ah, problem here, looked at over the break?" That's what a SMART PERSON and a RESPONSIBLE ADULT would have done... Her not remembering things though, and allegedly 'waking up' to see Melissa's wand in her hand... that was troubling. "Julia, can you jot these symptoms down?" He nodded to the young woman. "Excessive drool, random states of fugue, ah, staring.... what else, Whitworth?" Quote:
His hit wizard side was coming out strong, now that he had real WORK to do, other than 'mingling.' |
Quote:
"I've had my own encounter in the food court. There are more than you know here. That day, was weird, they seem cognisant of what they were doing;almost drugged like behaviour. There were two of them. One from Mysteries and another from I think the Minister's Office. The behaviour is a bit inconsistent but they are there." she spoke up. She was going to talk to her boss about it but they got sidelined."I did a bit of investigating, to find out the names of the individuals. Simon was there too. He was having trouble with one and that's when I stepped in. Then another showed up. I think we're at the tip of the ice berg of something very scary." Dacs remembered the incident clearly and now it looked like things were about to turn out like a bad horror movie. |

Quote:
She was being introduced? Smiling, she turned to face the man and was a little shocked by his resemblance to Leo. Maybe it was a family thing. Family resemblances and such. "The pleasure's all mine," she smiled, taking the man's hand. "Congratulations. I work in Magical Accidents and Catastropes." Ironic, really. Since Maine was a Magical Catastrophe herself. Turning to Leo, she smiled and shook her head. She didn't need the coat, no. Inclining her head subtly towards the minister, she tried to wordlessly send him the message that this was a formal event. And he had to keep his coat on. |
Quote:
Manolo smiled, "Sounds like fun. How's working at the Ministry? Is it bearable?" He asked them both. He was hesitant about working at the Ministry at first. Especially since Cara and the one she left him for were here. Manolo was even afraid to look around due to the fear of locking eyes with her. Those eyes. He'd recognize them anywhere. But, he needed the money. His mother and Awar needed him. |
Text Cut: angry!Wes & Dacs Or maybe she wasn't going to find her seat after all. Hearing Wes' commanding |
SPOILER!!: people! FOR MERLIN'S BALD HEAD SAKE! HE WAS NOT SICK! DIMITRI WAS PERFECTLY HEALTHY! Well, a few months ago he suffered a weird symptomps like a food poisoning. Including the hypersalivation (or excessive drooling in simple term), vomiting and unfocused-glazed look. Even his boss, Gavin also noticed the weird things that happened to him. But he felt a bit better when he had a winter break from Ministry. But wait.. Does it mean that the infection get worse than before? OH NO! >_< His He turned to the woman. Actually she was kind, helping him from his choking incident (but HOW she helped just make him getting worse now <_<) And what did she just called him? SKINNY? Dimitri never approved that! Yeah, he knew that he was skinny.. Too skinny maybe, but he didn't it. GLARE "Thanks." said him as the unknown woman put her hand on his shoulder and suggested him to take easy with food. Did he look so ill? Suddenly he started to drool again.. More than usual. Uh oh, the infection is back again. Now he felt so worse than before. Ugh.. Accidentally he threw up on the woman's shoes.ASDFGHJKJHGFTRDESWDFGHJ!!! |
Kensi, the Bossman and pointing finger at Alex xD SPOILER!!: Kensie SPOILER!!: Macho Boss Man SPOILER!!: Alex Melissa nodded. She suspected that Ms. Whitworth was still trying to comprehend what was happening. "It's okay. I can understand how scary it must have been to see your wand in my hand and not remembering how it got there. I would have freaked out....I mean I would have been surprised too" Melissa quickly corrected herself. Freaking out was definitely not the right word to be using now, seeing that was what Ms. Whitworth was actually starting to do. She definitely didn't envy Aron who was trying to take drool samples from her but hoped that she would be feeling better soon. Melissa then turned her attention back to Mr. Ferguson when he asked her where she had seen the other person who looked to be in the same "I saw him walk in earlier. He was stumbling around before heading for the Games and Sports table. There he is. The gentleman with the jet black hair." Melissa pointed the man out to her Department Head. He was still sitting at the table. "I do hope that he doesn't have what Ms. Whitworth has." Melissa said worriedly. |
all you people :3 & no worries on the zombies XD I didn't know either Sheesh. Women sometimes. He HAD told her that he needed to take a sample. Was this an effect of the zombie state too? Being easily agitated and all that? Maybe Honking Daffodil woman had it too? She was always easily agitated by things. Good thing she liked her own drool, because it was about to be scrutinized under a microscope in the lab for a while. Chances were she would be the only one who would like her drool by the end of the investigation. Thankfully Mr. Head Cabbage came in and set the woman straight. Yep, just doing his job here. Not like this was one of his hobbies or anything. Nope. He just collected sap samples from various trees. WAY more masculine and cool. Pocketing all of his vials and tools back in his bag and then looked back at Roxanne. "In the food court?" he asked, arching an eyebrow. She wasn't the first person to mention that place in conjunction with drooling now that he thought about it. He hadn't been there himself - he preferred to eat outside the Ministry when given the chance. And then Dacs mentioned the food court as well. "How long ago was all this?" Too long and he wouldn't be able to collect samples from there. "Was it after the cafeteria opened?" And now Aron was even more glad that he didn't eat at the Ministry. The fact that Wes hadn't been told about this was sort of...alarming. Especially with so many people in their department now coming forward and mentioning it. If it had all started with the opening of the cafeteria...that had been, what, half a year ago? Plenty of time for people to report things... "I'm going to need the names of the other droolers..." Maybe he needed to get out of the lab more often when he was at work. Aron's gaze followed Melissa's finger over towards the Games and Sports seating area and then glanced back at Wes. "Should I..." he trailed off as he waved an unused cotton swab in the man's direction. |
Maine was right. His coat had to stay on. However much he hated it. Well, they only had a couple more hours, and they could get out of here and do something fun. He wondered if Maine had ever been bowling. Not with him at least, but he had always found it fun when he was a kid. Fun and stress relieving was just what the two of them needed right now, what with all of the stress of planning thier wedding which was drawing closer every day. He pulled the coat back on. Bearable? "It's fabulous." Leo replied. "Most of the time." It really was. They gave him so much creative liscence to invent new broom features, and he had a lot of fun with it. It could be frustrating, sure, but it was fun. |
SPOILER!!: AngryWes XD So blowing up at Bossman would probably be a one way ticket to...fire-ment. Or Askaban, depending on how she handled her anger at him for the moment. HIUHFIRHGIHGTI4JGJ2P3RH2B She furrowed her eyebrows and shook silently with everything she wanted to SHOUT at him...UGH. The redhead was NOT used to holding this in...she needed to go home...and PUNCH something...faaaaast. She just growled and balled her fists..."If I was in a private ward at LEAST I wouldn't be near all YOU people..." she grumbled...fuming. Seething. He was being a completely horrible boss! UGH. *Flaaaaiiil* Was he threatening her?!? She just shut her mouth for a second and GLAAARED at the man...Aaron..whatever...his stupid name was ....UGHUGHUGH. And then..Oh MErlin.."OF COURSE I HAD IT CHECKED OUT DURING THE HOLIDAYS!" she snapped, looking quite ferocious. "My sister is a Healer! She came over here...I had a check-up..THEY HAVE NO CLUE WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME!" and it didn't help that there was no sign of her symptoms when she had gone...because...well, it only happened every so often. And when she had GONE to the Healer's office....of COURSE none of her symptoms showed themselves...she realized she was yelling..and took a deep breath...and eyed Wes..."I'm sorry...I yelled...don't fire me.." she growled...if he did fire her...well..she would be able to go crawl in a hole and die miserably, drooling her life away... Any more symptoms?! She nodded, still trying to keep her rage in check. "I...can't do magic...well.." she muttered, her velvety voice gruff...that was the most annoying part of it all... SPOILER!!: Melissa She just nodded at Melissa...looking mutinous still.."Oh..I'm Kensington, by the way..please...call me Kensi..." held out her hand..out of habit, but then retracted it...uh...she probably didn't want to shake a Zombie's hand, anyways. *grumbles* SPOILER!!: Droolman! She just glaaaared at him..."ANother man is trying to work on all of this, too. Maybe you should...talk to him..Derek Merriweather, Magical Accidents and--wait..I don't know WHAT department he's in..." Accidents and Catastrophe's ? MEh. Glare some more...glareglareglare. "Have fun with my drool..." she growled..ANGRY!Kensi was calming down now..just a bit...and being angry was the only time she was ever not being a zombie...hmm. Maybe she should just be angry all the time. Right. |
Text Cut: Dimitri and unkown woman The girl was not helping Derek's mood nor making the situation better. He really felt like telling her to just shut up and leave. But he was polite enough. For now. "It still doesn't mean he's having a seizure." He added impatiently. That other girl back at the Leaky Cauldron had some sort of seizure, but not Dimitri. At least not right now. So shut it, random girl. The look on Dimitri's face when Derek asked the question and his answer itself made Derek be sure he Before Derek could finish his sentence, Dimitri was drooling all over. SAMPLES!!! Pulling out his wand, Derek conjured a pair of rubber gloves and a vial. He quickly put on the gloves, but before he could collect the drool - without asking -, the other guy was already puking on the random girl's shoes!! PERFECT!!! Derek leaned down and collected some of the vomit before the woman could freak out and clean it up. When he had enough in the vial, he stood back up and eyed the substance. "Thank you, Dimitri." He said casually, pocketing the vial and cleaning his gloves and the woman's shoes with a flick of his wand. "Do you need anything?" The young man asked, looking at Dimitri. At least he should be nice to his 'friend' after he did him a big favor! |
mentions of Alex (Rupert-Grint-Fan) and Derek (jujune29th) too! Quote:
"We're going to need to have a department-wide meeting on this as soon as this event is over," Wes decided, raising his voice a bit so all the MLErs gathered around could hear. "I think you're right, Dacs, I think you're right." As much as he wanted her to be wrong... Quote:
Quote:
He nominated Melissa and Aron to do that task. Yep. Quote:
He had no idea how long ago this mess had started either, but did not when Aron gestured toward the Games & Sports man. "Go right ahead," he answered softly. "Oh, and while you're at it...." Wes gestured toward the sound of retching he'd just heard in front of him. "Looks like you've got a fellow drool-collector there." Probably someone from Thea's office, trying to upstage Wes' MLE team. "See what that guy is doing." He probably wasn't as well trained as the Level Two people. *huff* Quote:
Obviously the healers who had checked her out hadn't done a very good job, especially if they'd let her go without some observation and/or pills for her craziness. Wes just shook his head at the outburst and calmly picked up his fork and knife again, content to eat his cold dinner while Kensi went on and on. He did not at the bit about magic, though, and once again glanced to Julia to see if she was writing this down. It was important to their investigation, after all. "Derek Merriweather," Wes interjected, snapping his free hand at Aron. "That's the guy over there collecting vomit samples. Grab him before this thing is over, will ya?" So he was right, the guy WAS from A&C. Looked like Wes would be teaming up with Althea sooner than he'd have liked.... |
kensi, bossman and Aron SPOILER!!: Kensi and Bossman "Hello Kensi. I'm Melissa. It's nice to meet you. I wish that it had been under better circumstances."Melissa smiled apologetically at her and when she saw Kensi offer her hand to shake, Melissa without any hesitation, stuck out her hand to shake her's but before she could, Kensi had pulled her hand back. But before she could say anything else to Kensi, Mr. Ferguson had asked her to point out the person she had seen acting in a similar way as Kensi, and then blushed when he reminded that she shouldn't be obvious, when he lowered her pointing finger. 'Good one Melissa. You might as well have jumped up and down and pointed there he is...there he is. Have you forgotten all your training' Melissa berated herself. "Oh yes. We shouldn't be obvious." Melissa thanked. Then she blinked when she heard what Mr. Ferguson wanted her to do next. "Me? Check him out and collect samples with Aron?" Melissa said hesitantly. But then she thought, 'Why not. It'd be good to do field work again." "Aron? Would you like to lead the way. You're the expert here." Melissa turned to ask her co-worker who seemed to love to collect the drool samples. |
And some of Dacs too.... :) Text Cut: Aron & Wes *pouts* "Yep, food court." Roxanne replied, nodding. "In the seating area. Two weeks ago, right before vacation." Which meant, now that she thought about it, that someone could have gotten in there since the food court opened and tampered with the food. Or maybe the suppliers were at fault. Or the food wasn't being cooked properly. Or any number of other things. This was getting scary...... Well, she was glad Wes seemed so amused by that. The whole thing had been one of the most terrifying things she'd ever seen (and she had seen some scary stuff). So yeah, it was so great that he seemed to be getting such a big kick out of it. Hardy har har. Honestly, if he wasn't her boss, she would be giving him the stink eye right about now. As it was.... "Seemed real. You can ask her," nodding towards Dacs "since she was there too, appearantly." Nope, not just her believing someone who was acting. And great. Just what she wanted to spend her time doing, figuring out people's names. Ugh. Well, at least she had a lead on where to start. But wait? Hadn't Dacs said that she had looked up the names already? She wasn't about to mention this to the bossman though. No, she just wanted to get away from the table, the angry sick woman and warn any other MLEers that she could find. She looked over to Dacs. "Split up? Might work faster that away...." |

Rafael turned his attention to another fellow department head when she approached, though it was fair to say he was more curious about the zombie incident than before. Quote:
