Jenkins raised an eyebrow when she apologized...maybe she was lightening up a little? "Don't be," he replied. "A new table though..thats what the MoM is spending its money on instead of putting its lesser employees in offices and out of their cubicles."

He was VERY suprised when she said yes to dancing. He wasn't used to this kind of dancing. raised in society he knew all the traditional ones but this...this was like make up as you go...and he was rubbish at it. He laughed at himself.

"You are a very skilled dancer, Ms. Hayman," Ugh why must he use her last name? "Can I call you L?" he asked, "It sounds more...more like we're friends."

And a boyfriend not officially but yes. What was that supposed to mean??? "Ah...who is he?" Jenkins didn't really want to know. But this guy must be pretty awesome to have her.

Iridesca was pretty proud since it looked like a lot of people were interacting with each other pretty well.

She grabbed a hula hoop and put it over her head. She put her right foot forward and starting rotating her hips so that the hula hoop starting spinning around her body on her hips. She began giggling realizing how awkward she must look.

"Anyone want to hula hoop with me?" she asked through her giggles.

"I'll join you. I think it'll be fun." she smiled and got up. She grabbed the instructions and read them over. she then remembered how she used to do this with Jule all the time. She stuck both her legs in the hoop and brought it up to her hips. She made the hoop spin around her waist and swayed her hips. She missed the days she was younger. Abilee began to to smile and laugh a bit. She hadn't had this much fun in a while now.

"If you'll excuse me," Jenkins said to Liliana. He was desperate to get away. He hadn't really expected her to say yes and he did not want to talk about her unofficial boyfriend. "I think I'm gonna see how well i can...hulahoop? hulahoop is it a muggle sport?" he wondered aloud.

He went to join Abilee and Iredesca. He picked up a hulahoop but he couldn't get it to stay up in the air.

"Iredesca..." he said, "Would you mind terribly if I put a charm on here to make it float? Cause I can't seem to make this work the muggle way."

Laura walked into the conference room. but only that it was not a conferebce room. it was completely different.
"wow," she breathed. she saw people were all busy with either eating or...
"oh my god they are playing games in the conference room!"
"this is gonna be fun but this is compeletle weird" she thought shaking her head and walked further in.
she had no idea who was who and knew no one except the division head Jacob whom she met just sometime back. she looked around and started taking in the decorations around her.

"Helloooooo," Jenkins called to the new girl who had just walked in.

Iridesca waved at the new girl who walked in, "Please grab a burger and a drink...we have butterbeer and Muggle sodas...and join in on the fun."

She laughed at Jenkins' attempts at hula hooping..."O Jenkins you've just gotta move you hips more...You'll get it."

She really hoped everyone was having fun. Iridesca wanted to start being Division Head with a bang showing that she was interested in making sure they were enjoying themselves while working.

"O, and don't forget to leave any suggestions for the division or get together ideas in the box (PM them to me.)." she finished with a smile and gasp of air....hula hooping really did take the breath out of you.

"Ya'll think I could do two?" she asked and without waiting for an answer she picked up and extra one and gave it a try...it was a successful attempt but she tried anyways.

"Woohoo," called Jenkins, "Go Iridesca!"

Jacob gulped as the party took off. There was Lili and a new kid dancing...Hulahooping in a corner (he wasn't quite insane enough to try that one)...he took a sip of his Earl Grey.

Spotting Laura, he waved to her from across the room. It would be good for her to mingle with the other Division employees.

It would be good for him to mingle too, but right now he wanted his burger. He had eaten about half of the delicious creation when the new guy stopped dancing with Lili. Jacob sidled over. "Long time no see," he said amiably. "Have you had one of these burgers yet? They're amazing." Jacob looked around quickly. "Has Ian showed up yet?"

A luau party. The idea was completely foreign to Krel. She’d never heard of a luau, nor of having an umbrella in your drink. One would think it would be quite awkward to drink from your cup with an umbrella in it. She was entirely certain it would poke her in the eye or the nose and case damage. Therefore, before having even seen a fruity drink with an umbrella in it, Krel had already sworn off drinking them for she fully intended to leave the party with her eyes and nose intact and her clothes spotless and clean (which was an entirely different feat all together).
“Butterbeer?” she asked aloud to herself as she entered the room. Well that was entirely different from what she had been expecting. She placed one hand on her hip, slipping some fingers up under her maroon vest as she glanced around. The room looked like a zoo. It was crazy. People were twitching and wiggling as if possessed by the round tubey-hoop around their waists.

Yeah, that’s on the do not touch list too there Krel, she told herself as she walked in looking around for someone she might possibly know to pass some time with. It almost seemed silly to be up here wasting time when she had to much research to do in the library of records.

Jenkins decided to give on hula-hooping when he saw another girl walk into the room. He hadn't realized how many people were in there department.

"Hello," said Jenkins to the girl who just came in. She looked a little freaked out by all this...stuff."I'm Jenkins...Jenkins the third. And you are...?"

Krel’s hand slipped down the side of her coal gray skirt as a gentleman walked up to her and introduced himself. “Krel,” she paused feeling rather James Bond like. “Krel Ansell, the um – first.” She smiled. He probably heard jokes like that all the time, but she couldn’t help herself. She gave his hand a firm, but short hand shake.

“Lively bunch of people no?” she asked trying to move the conversation on, but not exactly sure what to talk about.

"Hello Krel Ansel the first," Jenkins said with a smile.

"Yeah they are...lively. And how about you? You want to dance? Or we could try out that limbo game over there. I know your dying to let yourself have a good time," he teased.

Krel smiled, her big toothy smile that meant she was actually amused. He had gotten her joke and wasn’t upset about it. Excellent. “I’m afraid I was born with two left feet. So I’m not much of a dancer.” She admitted aloud. If it wasn’t ballroom dancing and if she didn’t have a strong partner, Krel was a menace on the floor.

“And I have no idea what Limbo is,” she assumed it was the name of the stick, but what it did or what you had to do was beyond Krel. She came from a long stock of wizarding folk, and while she wasn’t not a pure blood, muggle affects and games and other oddities were lost on her.

"Well lets go figure out the limbo then!" said Jenkins, grabbing her hand to drag her over there.

Krel let out a very soft yip in surprise as Jenkins the Third yanked her across the room. She stumbled, catching her expensive Ukrainian Ironbelly scale heels on the edge of a chair. Thankfully, they didn’t scratch them. In fact it was very hard to scratch dragon scale heels, which was one of the reasons she had invested a good amount of her paychecks into buying a nice selection of dragon-hide heels.

“So you don’t know what Limbo is either?” Oh dear merlin’s fake teeth. They were in some trouble. “Shouldn’t we ask someone about it first before we go whacking each other with some stick named Limbo? I mean, Limbo might not like it.”

With a large smile on his face, Iain walked into the conference room and realised that he was the last Head to get there. Typical... He grabbed what the Scot's would call a wreath, and slung it around his neck as he picked up a fancy looking cocktail and looked around the room with a smile. It was a good turn out considering they hadn't known about it for long.

As he looked around, he smiled at his new employee's, Abilee and Brock, and tried to stop the jealous that rose up as he noticed that his Liliana was dancing with Jenkins. However, the fact that she had said no to lunch helped him get rid of that uncertain feeling.

As he watched Jenkins move away to join a few females who were hula-hooping, he slid up behind Liliana, and placed his hands gently on her waist. "Can I interest you in a dance?" He asked softly into her ear as he smiled past Lili to Jacob and Iridesca.

Jenkins laughed, "The rules are right there smart one, and i don't think this sticks name is limbo...or is it? Who knows?But if you want to play that way I will challenge you to a duel of swords. You might want to remove your shoes first though."

Jenkins also noticed that his head of department had moved up behind Liliana and was whispering in her ear. With his hands on her waist! Jenkins heart lurched. How could she do this to him? I mean couldn't she at least do this when he wasn't present? "Ummm..." he said to Krel, "So you want to duel or play by the rules? Frankly I've never never been one for rules."

Laura saw Jacob and a lady named Iridesca and she just smiled. she picked up a burger and took a bite and walked around deciding what to play. all this was new to her.

Abilee took a break from the hula hooping. She felt like she was getting a work out on her abdominal area. She sat in a chair and tried to relax. Her body was shaking a bit but that was usual for her. She looked around and saw more people coming in. She wanted to introduce herself but after she rested herself.

Jacob heard someone enter and turned to look at the newcomer. Ian. There he was. Ian made a beeline for Lili, and Jacob stepped back. He had yet to ask either of them about it, and wasn't sure if he ever would, but there was something...going on with them.

"There you are, Ian," he said. "I'll...leave you two." Rather than play awkward third wheel, Jacob slipped away. There was another reason for his hasty retreat - it made him think about Miley. Miley...had basically disappeared, and was painful to think about. He took a huge gulp of tea.

Jacob spotted a woman sitting by herself and changed his course. "Hello," he said kindly. "You're not in my Division, but might as well meet everyone, right? I'm Jacob Webster."

He swished his mug around in one hand, while holding his other out for her to shake. Darn it. His tea was becoming scarce. Butterbeer might become needed after all.

Laura was fascinated by the Limbo thing. she read the instructions and stood there in front of the stick that was already placed.
"wow...that's gonna be tough," she said but tried nonetheless. she slightly bent back and tried to pass through it. she didnt even look around and think what others will be thinking. she just did it. and wow she passed through the gap but anyone could have doen it. it was a good height.
the challenge will be when the stick comes down an inch to the next level...

Iridesca decided to take a break from the games and slowly make her way around the room introducing herself....

She walked up to the department head and two men she was talking to. "Hey Lili...how do you think things are going?" she really hoped they were all having fun...everyone needed a break from work.

She looked at the other two men and held her hand out, "Hi, I'm Iridesca, the new Division Head for the Magical Office of Law," she said as she flipped her blueish purple-ish hair over her shoulder.

She saw a girl sitting down and hurried over to her, "Hi, I'm Iridesca...would you like a soda or something you look exhausted."

She headed over to the group of people at the limbo corner. "Hey Jenkins! Are you enjoying yourself?" she asked truly hoping that this turned out better than he had hoped.

She turned her head to the girl with him, "Hi, I'm Iridesca." she started with her hand out to shake the new face's hand.

"Hey!" said Jenkins, "Haven't talked to you much since I've been here. But yes I am enjoying myself. The Muggle games though...no exploding snap or somthing? Me and Krel the First here are trying to figure out what to do with Limbo here... a little help maybe?"

Abigail jumped a bit from all the greetings. First she saw a man walking towards with his hand sticking out.
"Oh. Hello, I'm Abigail Sinclair. I work in the Trading Body Standards." she smiled.
"This is some party, eh?"


She then turned to the lady with the purple hair. Niiiiiice.
"Ahh. A metamorphagus. Well I'm Abigail Sinclair." she smiled and shook her hand.
"Sure. I'd like one, thanks."
