Aha!

Miss Knoll stayed sooooo long at Gringotts, and then arrived quickly to pick up something from the mailbox, and then left as soon as she got her mail, and then returned to the Daily Prophet, and then simply forgot to place the green pin in the board.

But now, she had the time (sort of) and was determined to place the green pin in Italy, and (according to some of her mail) a blue one in Australia and New Zealand. Rumors, of course.

She stood in front of the board trying to make any sort of connections between the green pin in Italy and the others.

Charles had already decorated his desk with so many picture frames that there was almost no elbow room for him to work on his new assignments. A small sacrifice considering the angelic little girl contained within its for cornered wooden frames.

In his hand was a copy of his resume that he was planning on handing out as a means of introducing himself to his new co-workers and supervisors.

Truth be told, it wasn't so much his resume as it was a small paragraph at the top with a general greeting and one sentence summary about his life. The rest was a large picture of his daughter, Kurumi, and the words "Happy Birthday!" written in very large curly letters at the bottom along with 'my little girl is growing up and is already a teenager!' underneath.

Perhaps he could convince them to run this on the front page of the Daily Prophet?

He had been looking for the copy room, but he instead found himself in a room with a large map and some random gentleman's picture pined to it. How peculiar!

He then noticed that he wasn't alone. Perfect! Introductions were in order!

"Good day madam," Charles smiled as popped up behind her.

Well, she used to be a reporter before moving up to the Editor side of things, so she wasn't startled AT ALL when she was greeted by some man. Actually, she'd thought that the walking figure had been Plymouth, since he used to walk A LOT around the Prophet.

But, Sienna had no idea where Plymouth was, and it was a very unsettling feeling. Were they in need of a new Secretary? She had no idea. However, Ian DID let her know about the new hires this time around.

That's a WIN for Ian. We like him now.

She hoped that this man was one of those new hires and not some random person asking to put flyers or anything near their window. She learned her lesson with the Ministry flyers.

"Oh, good day to you as well," she said, with a smile on her face, "You must be one of the new employees, am I correct?" there was one thing Ian forgot...

...pictures.

"That I am," he smiled tucking the large stack of resumes under his arm and held out his hand for a sturdy handshake. "Name's Charles, Charles Hollingberry. New News Reporter."

A few of his papers came lose from under his arm and scattered across the ground.

"Oh oh!" his voice boomed. What was he going to do?! All his lovely pictures of his Princess Kurumi were going to get dirtied!!

Dropping his hand from the handshake gesture and dropped to his knees to begin picking up the papers - but not like some crazy man. The papers could get all crumbly and wrinkly that way.

Oh! How perfect! Thank Morgana he wasn't a random person, then again, perhaps he was pretending to be a new hire? We need pictures, Ian.

No. No. She'd read that name in one of the papers. Charles Hollingberry. Then he'd been right all along, he WAS a new employee. There was a wide smile on Sienna's face, her first job in the Prophet had been in the News Section. "Charles, I'm Sienna Knoll...," Knoll-Walker, "...Managing Editor for the Prophet." One nod. "It's great to finally meet you," Xiao may like to have someone his own age working in the same Section.

She was about to shake his hand, but then there were papers everywhere!

"Do you need help?" she said, tilting her head to one side, then her eyes fell on one picture, of a little girl, so, it was completely normal that she felt the liberty to pick that one picture from the floor and then..., "Your daughter?" she smiled.

Charles fumbled around with his papers a bit, more than was really necessary since he was taking extra special care not to crumple the pictures any, but he stopped for a moment when he heard the charming woman speak to him.

Wait...did she say Managing Editor? Well, this was some first impression he was making on her now wasn't it?

"Well, then I suppose that makes you my supervisor doesn't it?" he chuckled as he used one of the nearby tables to make all the pages even.

"Yes, this is my darling little princess, Kurumi," he beamed. "You may keep that. It has my resume and credentials on the top." In itty bitty font. "The picture was taken after she came home from her second year at Hogwarts. She just turned 13 and instead of us baking a cake for her, she ended up baking several dozen cookies for us. Isn't she just so generous?!"

He grinned from ear to ear as he discussed his daughter. This probably was not the best way to make a better second impression, but perhaps she had children of her own and understood the joys of parenting.

"Ahem, anyway," he said clearing his throat a bit. "It is lovely to meet you Miss Knoll, or, may I be so bold as to call you Sienna?"

Actually, "Oh, you answer to the Section Editor first, but yes, you're right about that." They were all under Ian's control, though. Pretty scary. And look at that, he'd gotten all the papers sorted out. Charles didn't seem to be one of those that'll have problem interviewing people since he was fast on his feet.

Sienna couldn't help but smile as he spoke of his daughter, there was something she found so familiar in him, and she'd figured it out before he could finish. However, she said nothing until he was done talking. Because, well, the man could talk, alright? And a thirteen year-old that bakes? Looks like someone will get ahead in the food industry.

"She, Kurumi, is your only daughter, am I right?" she asked, for she couldn't remember if such information was on the memo she'd received from Ian, and if it was...she didn't mind the family part as long as they were ALL suited for the job.

That's what mattered.

"She sounds lovely." The woman didn't have a child of her own...yet. But she had a very cute dog to take care of in the meantime. She knew that her husband, Aaron, wanted a child, though.

Oh, what to call her? Well, that was easy, "Sienna would be fine, I don't mind." Sienna worked best, because even though it had been almost a year of her wedding, she still didn't know how she wanted people to call her. Only Plymouth had managed a Mrs. Sienna that seemed alright to her.

"That she is," he said puffing out his chest a bit with pride. "She is my little princess. Would you care to see more pictures?" Of course she would! Who didn't want to see pictures of the most darling girl in the world?

He quickly pulled out his photo wallet and thrust a picture of Kurumi and her three brothers having a picnic under a cherry tree. "She made all that food herself! At age seven!" Well, Yukie had helped out a little, but mostly Kurumi had done all of it herself. "There really is no joy like having children," he smiled looking at Sienna. He threw one arm around her shoulders and was seriously invading her personal space, but it was very necessary considering how important it was that she get a very close look at the next picture of his little princess holding a puppy.

Oh, she knew it! Her face lit up, and not because she wanted to see more pictures, but because Kurumi was a very lucky girl, just like she'd been. See, Sienna was the only daughter to her parents, and, actually, had three brothers, but was on speaking terms with the younger one, who also happened to be the youngest of all the Knolls up to date, and the one who introduced her to her husband. No wonder she loved her little brother the most.

But, back to Kurumi, and Charles. She didn't mention how she managed to assume that he only had one daughter, though, it was rather obvious from all the excitement that showing the girl's pictures was causing.

Sienna was actually glad her father never showed pictures around, though, but she remembered he always used to talk way more about her than the others. Her eyes, of course, widened at the sight of that other picture, though, it was a very beautiful cherry tree, but that's not what surprised her. The fact that the girl had been seven years-old and managed to cook at that age was...beyond her, honestly. Sienna still had some issues when it came to cooking, good thing Aaron was amazing in that area. "She did all that? At seven? That's remarkable." But, yeah, no, the Prophet is not publishing that story.

"Oh, I've heard that," especially from Egypt and her...seven kids? Or did she have eight? "I haven't had that joy yet, though, but my husband and I do want one." And one was enough, for now.

Had Sienna been British, then she'd probably have very awkwardly pushed Charles' arm away. She still cringed a little at the surprise, especially considering they'd JUST MET, and the only one that had done such a thing had been Plymouth...after a very long time of working in the Prophet, but...oh, that picture! The puppy! She had one in her office, the first pet in, like, ever. The woman never truly had one of her own while growing up. "Awww, that's a very cute puppy! And, of course, Kurumi is also. Is it hers?" The puppy.

Charles puffed out his chest a bit more as he continued to flip through pictures. There was one of her testing icing for the first time. It had resulted in her pouring the contents of the bowl over her head and turning the kitchen into one giant sticky mess.

That is the family dog, Hikari,” he nodded. “She is rather old now considering that she grew up with Kurumi. She became a very attached to the dog which probably explains her interest in magical creatures.

Charles looked at Sienna and his eyes got wide and sparkly when she mentioned she wanted children. He grabbed onto her hands and held them close to his chest with the smile that only an adoring father could make. “THAT’S FANTASTIC! Do you want a little prince or an adorable princess?

Both were little bundles of joy, of course.

Sienna couldn't help but laugh softly at the sight of a girl in the middle of a very chaotic kitchen, it kind of looked like her own kitchen if she cooked for too many people. Which was...rarely.

It never occurred to her until NOW, that the puppy in her office could have the same fate as Hikari, being the family dog and all. Charles' pictures, though, sort of depicted Hikari as part of the family, or that's what she could see from Kurumi's expression. "You have a very lovely family." Certainly.

If she'd been surprised before, then she was even more at the moment. Yes, Charles was very in touch with his emotions, no? And he was supposed to work in the News Section? That would be something she wants to see now.

Her smile widened, though, and she hadn't given it much thought...no, who are we kidding, she'd forever want a boy instead of a girl, "Hopefully a little prince, but a girl will be most welcomed also." As long as it was a healthy baby, all good. But...see how she didn't say 'princess' but 'girl' instead, yeah, she totally wanted a boy.

Awww, well, this man was a very loving father for sure, how could one ever think badly of this man...eh, no, wait, perhaps it was all a facade? It all appeared too good to be true, though, maybe she was wrong. Yes, she was probably wrong, after all, she'd been wrong about other people before, no? No.

It was rather obvious to her that Ian never interviewed their future employees in person, or he may have had doubts about hiring Charles. Actually, that seemed like a very good idea..., "Have you met the Editor-In-Chief, Mr. Hoshino, by any chance?" her eyes flickered to the board for one second, because Charles and Enrico would've gotten along so well!

Sienna was actually glad to have someone like a Mr. Hollingberry working in here.

They are all lovely children,” he nodded pulling out yet another picture that unraveled from the album to a life sized picture of his little princess when she had turned three. “Of course, her brothers are all lovely. The oldest works for a Japanese wizarding newspaper. He laughed when I told him I was taking up this post as well. We both figured that I would keep my work within Japan and working for the Japanese Ministry, but certain developments here in Great Britian changed that.

He voice had gone from that of a sing-song child on Christmas morning to a brewing potions master fuming over a student not slicing their ingredients with a CLEAN silver knife.

Where was I?” he asked snapping himself back to the present and, more importantly, pictures of his little girl. “I have three boys, but I do believe I already mentioned that. They can certainly be a handful, but then they become a father’s best friend and joy. Well, until they hit a certain age and then everything that father does is weird or embarrassing. That’s what so charming about a little princess, they will always be daddy’s little girl no matter how old they get.” At least, that is how his little Kurumi was going to be.

I have not,” Charles exclaimed a bit shocked and baffled by this obvious development. After all, it was this man who had hired him, correct. Must have been his application that had done it. NO interview needed. Of course, Charles had slipped a small wallet sized photo of Kurumi as a bribe. He would rather like to have that back come to think of it. “I suppose I should before I begin getting my hands dirty.

He looked around the room they were in and his eyes flicked back to the map. “What is this room? Rather depressing atmosphere isn’t it?” he asked unrolling an even larger picture of Kurumi that was much more recent. Taken on her thirteenth birthday to be exact. He pinned I to the way riiiiiiiiight next to the map. “Much better, wouldn’t you agree?

Oh, no, she DID NOT see that coming. Clearly, Kurumi was the ultimate Princess. Yes, Sienna still thought that she'd been lucky enough not to have her father showing around pictures. Though, there had been plenty of moving pictures around their home back in America. A home she was kind of missing. Perhaps a trip was much expected as soon as Ian gave orders that it was okay for her to leave for a couple days.

Yet, the woman couldn't help to return the smile to the life-size Kurumi. How could you not?

As she was about to comment on the fact that his older son also worked for a newspaper, she decided against it, for Charles' tone had changed. The tone practically stated that there was some interesting background story to it. And she was dying to ask! Surely, the reporter side of her wasn't in the least dead. Curiosity grew by the second.

"I have three brothers." She finally decided on saying, the Japanese Ministry thing not forgotten, "But, yes, I think you're right about that." The one who truly knew was her own father, and she felt like writing right now...maybe later, in her office.

Smile. "Whilst is not necessary, it would be a good thing." A very good thing to annoy Ian, since she no longer had Plymouth to annoy.

The room? "Actually...," she started to explain, deciding to let go of the depressing atmosphere part, "...before Ian was made Editor...," how did that happen, by the way? "...our Editor was that man, Enrico, who disappeared all of the sudden." She was NOT doing justice to Enrico at all, the man had been such an amazing Editor, he'd gotten them nice chairs. "We haven't heard from him ever since." And now they had Ian, who...had done even more than Enrico by raising the ads price.

Sienna had been pointing at the map...until...

O.o

...what did he doooo?!

Her eyes widened for a moment, that was Enrico's map! The fellow American friend! Not cool, Charles. Not cool. Sienna's wand was out and she moved Kurumi's picture one inch to the right of the map. Fine, Charles, you could have the picture in there...just...don't mess with the map. "It is." Now.

"What developments were you talking about?" when he mentioned the Japanese Ministry and all.

Charles looked at Sienna as she began to explain the map. "Were you and this Enrico close?" he asked raising an eyebrow. After all, she was the ONLY person in this room looking at the map.

Charles frowned as he looked at the map - not to much that it was the case of a missing person, but more that she had move the picture of Kurumi ever so slightly. He had thought that the spot he had chosen was the best, but, she was more the boss than he was.

Nodding in approval of poster number one of his darling little princess, he pondered putting another poster up - he had several in his briefcase you see - but decided to save them for other areas of the Daily Prophet. For example, the entry way looked like it could use a bit of sunshine in the form of a violet eyed princess.

He scratched his scruffy beard as he thought about how best to describe what had drawn him to come to work for the Daily Prophet. "I work as the department head for the Department of International Magical Cooperation and, as the head and official ambassador to Great Britain seeing as it is my home country, was asked to participate in the party being put on by a one Lord Pig," he chuckled. "Excuse me, Lord Borr." He scratched his beard again and looked at the picture of his daughter. "What I saw there, unsettled me and seeing and hearing of the new, and not necessarily improved, developments in the Ministry and at Hogwarts..." He trailed off for a moment as his eyes locked on to the ones belonging to his daughter before they flicked to Sienna's. "Have you ever heard the expression that the fieriest creature is a lioness protecting her cub? Well, people who say that haven't met me."

Were Enrico and her close? Sienna smiled, "Actually, we kind of were," she wasn't completely sure, after all, she still hadn't received an owl from him or anything. Something would've been nice, Enrico, really. "We were the only Americans working for the Prophet," which had been rather amusing at the time. Especially since they used to run the British newspaper.

Hilarious, really.

Oh, she noticed the frowning, alright. And she may have been overreacting a bit, but, yes, no one should mess with the map. Though, it was perfectly clear that they should just burn the thing down or maybe updated with news all around the world.

Sienna couldn't help but laugh softly as he said 'Lord Pig', and simply shook her head, "Oh, no, by all means, I don't mind that name...it kind of suits the man," and those awful t-shirts he'd given away. UGH. SO UGLY.

She has been having trouble with the Ministry ever since Cooper left. She was such a Cooper girl.

There was a smile on her face now. It was all because of his daughter. How precious. "That's wonderful," she said, with one nod, "You'd do anything to be close to her," and if she had a child, she'd probably do the same. "Plus, the Prophet will give you a couple days off when summer arrives again if you want to spend some time with Kurumi."

She'll make it happen. Probably Ian could use less of this man in the Prophet too.
