"This line isn't optimized for efficiency," she tried conversation. It was... not a very good attempt at conversation, was it? Carrigan cleared her throat and tried returning the woman's smile, although her teeth felt like they were sticking to her lips. Smiling was hard.

Looking away from the high ceilings and the gold (guilded or real, she wondered) decorations at the sound of a voice, her light blue eyes lit up softly at the statement. "I guess no." She agreed, a strong Scottish accent shining through. "Bu' it means a chance to mee' some o' tha other members o' staff." Nodding her head, her brunette hair stuck to her face a little. It was hot.

Running a hand through her hair to pull it away from her face she offered the woman another smile. "My name's River." There. An introduction. She didn't want to shake hands... and she didn't know the younger girl well enough to give her a hug... so she just left it. Hoping that she would supply her name in return. Afterall, she had started the conversation.

That was odd. Which woman didn't inspect the content of a bag before picking one up? Not one in his family that was for sure. This woman was though not from England though which was made clear by her thick Asian accent. "I'm Logan. I work in Accidents & Catastrophes as an Obliviator." he introduced himself before his arms were suddenly full of the woman's bag. Had he signalled that she could?

Raising a curious brow he asked "What would you be most happy to find in the goody bag? Make up? Jewellery? Food?"
Introductions had flown right over her head that when the man introduced himself she looked up and blinked at him until it hit her. Introductions! But the first thing that made it out of her mouth, eyes wide as saucers, was, "Obliviate." Awe. Pure awe in her round little face. That was pretty amazing. She's never met an Obliviator before. "I am daycare assistant--" Wait, "I mean, Sakura. I am Sakura and I am a daycare assistant," she grinned proudly. There. Much better.

It did not cross her mind if he would mind holding the bag. She assumed since they were both curious then might as well help one another.

She paused her searched and looked up at Logan, her lips pursed in a thoughtful expression. "Vouchers for free food." That way if she didn't have any money she wouldn't have to worry about not eating. "Or one of those coffee traveler mug things. That would make me most happy," she smiled. "You? Would you like make-up, jewelry, food?"

Alex Greingoth was officially not the "new" employee anymore! He was practically a veteran now - unless, for some reason, they didn't add any new employees to DERP. In which case he was going to be in for a rude awakening when they all returned to work, but he was going to try and not think about that now.

Taking his goodie bag, he peeked inside and took a look at all the SWAG he was going to be getting. That shirt was kind of nice...for a workout shirt. This was really all just more stuff to clutter up his desk, but he was never one to turn down free stuff, even if he didn't really want it...

That, of it is simply the best of a bad selection of options?" That was always a possibility in politics and in general, management.

"Carrigan." She repeated, as her hand moved from her side to complete the hand shake. "It'sa pleasure ta meet ya." With a single, strong shake, she released the woman's hand as her hand rested on her waist. "Magical Creatures." She supplied in return, as that seemed like it was only polite. She wasn't entirely sure if she should instantly mention her position or if... she should just be here as a new employee. Hmmm. Decisions.

"Have ya worked here for lang?" She asked instead.

Altair joined the line, tapping his fingers on his ID as he did so. He looked around in an attempt to spot anyone familiar. Rita had to be somewhere here, maybe she could save him from boredom while he waited in this line?

Oh hellllllo, familiar face. Sort of. He knew he went to school with her......and that was about it. He eavesdropped listened as she introduced herself to goody bag-person and nodded to himself. Rani was a fan of free pencils too, what a great way to start off. Really. "Whazzup, Rani........remember ME?! Altair greeted the not-total-stranger and beamed at her, fully aware that she most likely hadn't a clue who he was.
As Rani was digging into her goody bag with her ever so amused expression, she was caught off-guard by someone who had actually recognised her. She looked up and saw a guy... that wasn't quite familiar with. But he knew her name? What? Rani didn't want to seem rude towards the other person, so she just gave him a smile and dropped the Muggle pencils she was holding earlier inside the bag again. "Hi, there," she said to him.

Still... not sure who he was but, nevertheless, right now was the ideal time to make friends. Sort of a fresh start too.

"You must be... a friend of Amrita?" Otherwise, how else would he have known her? Or maybe Aanand's former schoolmate? He looked quite young to be in that age level. Come on, the twenty three year old thought she might've seen him somewhere, but she just wasn't sure where and how. She must have forgotten his name...

BUT THAT WAS NONSENSE! Rani Malhotra never forgot names!

Eh......line? What line?

Okay, there was indeed a line forming and it seemed like there was only one person handling the IDs. Not the most efficient way of doing things, but that's why she was here. To make Ministry events more efficient. Though, she didn't want to get off on the wrong foot, so she kept her opinions to herself for now as she made her way through the line.

"Dr. Daniela Ventura, Minister's Office," she said once reaching the poor guy that was the only one working at the station. Honestly, part of her wished that she could've left off her title. But it was probably what was on her ID so........ There wasn't any need to make things any harder than they already were.

That was one way to look at it, and perhaps a less cynical way. The line was slow by design, they were making the best of a bad situation, and they were nearly to the front now, anyway. Carrigan nodded along thoughtfully. Probably not good to go straight for cynicism, even if it was her nature.

"Pleasure to meet you as well. Magical Creatures..." Her eyes brightened a bit. "Are you familiar with the Greater London Crup Rescue? They do such good work, and I volunteer with them regularly. My mum used to work there, and we're still involved with them." Not that working for Magical Creatures meant that the woman knew every kind of creature or rescue or sanctuary, but conversation, right?

Oh. Wasn't that last bit obvious? Since they were in line? "I'm new. Have you... worked here long?"

Uh oh.

Had the woman just tried to cast the forgetfulness charm on him?

She couldn't have? Could she?

The dark haired woman wasn't pointing her wand at him so Logan had to be safe right? But then why did he start getting sweaty all of a sudden? Blinking he said eyes narrowing ever so slightly at her, as he mumbled uncomfortable. "You shouldn't throw that word so carelessly around. It's the incantation for the memory charms." It was one thing when Logan used it in his work every day, but a whole different ball game when someone used it at an orientation event. It gave him warning chills.

The expression of awe and amazement that came and went over the woman's face was totally confusing. He didn't even try to make sense of it. Grasping on to something that did make sense Logan swallowed before forcing himself to smile. "It's a pleasure to meet you Sakura. So you like working with kids?" Yes it was probably a dumb question but the best he could come up with given the circumstance. He'd have to ask Mammy or Rusty if the spell could work if someone just threw it out without care or thought?

Still clutching Sakura's goody bag in his arms Logan said thoughtfully. "I'd like free food too. I don't currently have a girlfriend, so if its makeup and jewellery in the bag I'd have to give it to my sisters. Something practical would be nice though like a new watch."

He'd gotten a shock that was all but everything was okay. Logan was okay.

That was certainly true. Amrita and him went way back. Like way back to this afternoon, sharing a cuppa tea. Honestly, Amrita, don't you tell your friends and family about your BFF? "Amrita? The name does sound familiar, but can't say that I know her as a friend." Altair smiled politely, this hadn't exactly been the plan when he said hi to Rani, but he had started it now and would have to keep it up. "I'm surprised you don't remember me, Rani. It's me, Altair! Don't you remember hanging out at school? Potions was a right hoot, am I right?!" He clapped his hands together and nodded, seriously hoping she wasn't going to ask him about their potions professor. No idea who the guy was. "Ministry too, huh? Always thought you'd end up here." Why, Altair, why?

No idea who the guy was. "Ministry too, huh? Always thought you'd end up here." Why, Altair, why?
Err... right. Rani just smiled at the boy in front of her, out of friendliness. She wasn't exactly sure why this guy was talking to her - who wouldn'y anyway? Please - but she maintained her patience and outgoingness. It wasn't like she felt any awkward; nothing seemed to be strange to her anyway, even Amrita and Mason being together seemed like a normality. "And likewise to you, too," she replied. Still, she caught no mention of his name.

Rani was, apparently, wrong about him being a friend of Amrita. The twenty three year old blinked, and racked her brain a bit for any sign of familiarity from him. However, nothing really seemed to spark the light bulb. She tried to remain calm. Boy seemed like a wacko already, but c'mon. She was gonna give him a chance, nevertheless. She didn't remember hanging out with him though! She was twenty three, and she believed her memory was still quite sharp! How could she ever forget?! "I never really... paid much attention to Potions before," she said. At the age of sixteen and eighteen when she sat for her exams in Durmstrang, she had only managed to scrape a literally passing grade for the class. "Anyway, it's good to see you, Altair!" At least she didn't have to awkwardly pretend like she didn't mention his name.

... Still, a wacko indeed.

"Really?" Was she really a perfect fit here in the Ministry? Rani thought about it for a moment. "And what makes you say so?" She never really thought of landing in here anyway, but whatever open opportunities there are to travel, why would she decline? Earning money plus getting to explore. It was a win-win situation!

Archer Grimm Stark
Transportation
Default Archer is such a Drama-Queen, I'm so sorry XD
Sassenach l theJoff l RoughDough l Aslan l Snidget l My Lord Kate l Dark-Side l BEETSSS l smol George

SPOILER!!: Hothead
In the process of dragging Archer off to fix his attire, Chloe did happen to overhear a name she didn't think she would ever hear. Macadrian Shackleton. Her mother's arithmancy teacher and head of house ?? Could that be? Wanting to find out but also needing to worry about Archer too, Chloe took a moment to take in the woman's appearance before finishing leading Archer away...she could return to finding Ms Shackleton for inquiries later. Fixing her friend was more a priority.

Yes Chloe knew that Archer was not going to be pleased with her for dragging him off but he would most likely thank her later for saving him from the embarrassment (no doubt included an extra snog) ... But she did roll her eyes when he whistled at her attire. Did boys ever grow up? Judging from her brothers she doubted so but on the other hand, Logan seemed well put together.

"Tell me something I don't know, but seriously, Archer. This isn't Hogwarts..." Chloe sighed removing her wand from its handy holster within her tiny bag. Yes she chose to ignore the boyfriend of the week comment because he very well knew her relationship status. With precise flick and a nonverbal incantation, Chloe transfigured his casual attire into something more presentable.

He had a lot to learn it seemed... Chloe shook her head; "You're right. Lynley Purcell is most definitely NOT Flamsteed which is more reason to show her respect. It's not sucking up, but need I remind you that unlike Hogwarts, we are getting PAID to be here. Our time is no longer free, which means we need to act like we deserve the the paycheck we getting. Which starts with that attitude." Okay so maybe she'd gotten a little Ravenclaw over the last year, but her best friend was a ravenclaw so it's hardly surprising she had some in her.



Oh brother.

"Exactly, Chloe." He said with a sigh, before running his hand through his hair. "This isn't Hogwarts anymore. You don't get to play the mother anymore. I'm a man now, I can make my own choices." He wasn't 12 years old anymore, for Merlin's sake.

Archer did, however, recoil slightly when he saw Chloe take her wand out. He'd only been joking when he thought that she was going to kill him. But as she pointed the wand towards him, it seemed that it could actually become a reality. "What are yo-"

-__-

Did she seriously just do that. . .

"Chloe. . . I paid like 70 galleons for that jacket. . . " He was trying to stay calm, but that jacket had been actual leather. . . and it was basically the only thing he ever wore. "I cannot believe that you did that." She didn't even give him a better outfit! He was wearing the exact thing that he was avoiding. Archer looked down at the ridiculous dress shoes, scowling to see that even his boots were gone.

Was she seriously lecturing him? After she basically stole his clothes and shoved him into this super itchy suit? "Attitude? She was legit disgusted by what I was attire, my choice of clothes, which is like my identity. Just like you and your stupid prep-dress. If she doesn't like the way I dress, then maybe she should find herself some else to give that 'well-earned' paycheck to. I'm not letting someone else dictate my life." Maybe he was blowing this way out of proportion, but he didn't really care right now. "I'm here to do a job, not to dress up as a lawyer and play at being my dad. I'm not here to have my damn life judged my you either, only to have you whip out your wand to try and magically solve the solution, you can't fix everything with magic. Magic doesn't bring anything back and it sure as hell doesn't solve every problem you have." Some things were better left like they were, even if Chloe couldn't stand something going wrong.

Archer unbuttoned the stupid jacket and started working at untying the horrid tie. This night was already sucking and it had just began, just like he had dreaded. He knew that he just should have stayed home. . . Yanking the now loose tie from his neck, Archer shoved it into Chloe's hands and started making his way past her towards the door. "I'm going home. If you see our boss, tell her that it was lovely meeting her."

She couldn't have? Could she?

The dark haired woman wasn't pointing her wand at him so Logan had to be safe right? But then why did he start getting sweaty all of a sudden? Blinking he said eyes narrowing ever so slightly at her, as he mumbled uncomfortable. "You shouldn't throw that word so carelessly around. It's the incantation for the memory charms." It was one thing when Logan used it in his work every day, but a whole different ball game when someone used it at an orientation event. It gave him warning chills.

The expression of awe and amazement that came and went over the woman's face was totally confusing. He didn't even try to make sense of it. Grasping on to something that did make sense Logan swallowed before forcing himself to smile. "It's a pleasure to meet you Sakura. So you like working with kids?" Yes it was probably a dumb question but the best he could come up with given the circumstance. He'd have to ask Mammy or Rusty if the spell could work if someone just threw it out without care or thought?

Still clutching Sakura's goody bag in his arms Logan said thoughtfully. "I'd like free food too. I don't currently have a girlfriend, so if its makeup and jewellery in the bag I'd have to give it to my sisters. Something practical would be nice though like a new watch."

He'd gotten a shock that was all but everything was okay. Logan was okay.



Sakura blinked right back at him, taking half a step away from him when he narrowed his eyes at her. What--oh. "That is the incantation," she agreed with a nod. "I did not lace it with intent. I just said it. Like saying 'hello'. Obliviate." See? Simple word. She smiled. There was no reason for her to want to cast a memory charm on him.

The small witch studied him for a moment. Had she said something wrong? Everything seemed to be okay now so she nodded at his question about kids. "I do. I want to become a teacher one day." And teach generations upon generations!

Sakura eyed him once more before moving and reaching a hand inside the bag, fingers curling around the first thing they touched. "Free food is the best when you are on a budget." A small laugh escaped her at the make-up comment. "You would not like try it on yourself, the make-up?"

With another timid smile she raised up the first content of the bag. "Aha! Quills and muggle penciiiils." Handy dandy!

She smiled again at the compliment and glanced down at her dress. "Thanks. My mum helped too." She felt good in this dress, too.

"Pleasure," Evie replied, shaking the woman's hand when she offered it. "And welcome. I'm Evangeline Shacklebolt. I'm in the youth auror training initiative, second year." And excited to continue. Very excited.
"I'll be sure to let her know. I can already see the smug look on her face," The brunette laughed lightly and shrugged. It was a good thing, her mum being right. At least about some things.

"Looks like both of them have good taste then, hm?" Made for an easier time picking out an outfit when you had someone giving you sound advice.

"I've heard good things about the YATI program here. I'm sure we'll be seeing each other around, then." And it was good to meet another female who was interested in law enforcement. "So the food at these things-worth waiting in line for or what?" Ivy gestured towards the buffet with her head as she packed up her the contents of her swag back.

Well if you do not have your ID, you will be not posted here as guard, that is Toni do at her last assignment, keeping save the VIPs at Manila, the Philippines.

Toni was shock when she have read, 'Head of Security'. and 'I am a Patrol Officer, so he is big time'

"How do you do, Sir", Toni voice out.
Hunters?

Whoops. Must have heard that wrong. “My apologies Miss Hunters,” Simon offered, not wanting to be rude and admitting to a mistake he had made. “You’re welcome. And yes…My name is Simon.” He hadn’t quite gotten to the introduction, but she had apparently been able to read his own badge. Even if the adding of the honorific was all her. Although he knew at least a few friend who would tease him for it knowing what type of person he was personally.

“I’m doing good,” he answered, not sure what to do about the ‘sir’ on the other end this time. Yes, he was technically a superior but not directly and orientations weren’t usually too formal. “And how about yourself?”Polite conversation and interest in fellow coworkers.

As she navigated the crowd to the table, Francesca stared at the floor, avoiding eye contact with anyone else, pleading that she simply went past unnoticed. She was no longer the friendly person she normally was, Francesca was overwhelmed by everyone too much to start a conversation. Everyone else looked smart, responsible, and not to mention significantly older, so Francesca felt inferior to them all, wishing she had waited just a few more years. She knew she was here for a reason, and she had been hired for the job, but inside she felt like she really didn't deserve it. Oh stop with the rubbish, she told herself. They hired you for a reason, and they want you here.

A temporary burst of confidence in her, Francesca spoke up for the first time that day.
"Francesca Whitewood, Magical Law Enforcement." She said, her voice quite clearly shaky, but she did her best to hide with a half-smile.
Simon didn’t think he needed the skill he acquired over the years in the MLE to realize the young woman coming up in front of him felt out of place. The signs were all there; trouble with eye contact…awkward movements…shaky voice…uncertain smile. He might not deal that much with such in his current line of work, but he was known to be the supportive, friendly type. And her being in MLE brought her into his family of sorts, much like a newly sorted Gryffindor came under him as captain and student leader.

“Welcome Miss Whitewood,” he remarked with a polite smile. “I’m Simon Bennett, head of Security in the MLE as well,” he supplied, offering her her ID once he found it from the supply still on the table. "If you have any questions, I can see if I can help."

Toni look at Simon's reaction, and thought He's a bit nervous, isn't he or I am the only one thinking it, well look like he didn't intentionally say my last name wrong, what to do"

"Oh, I'm fine." Toni said eventually, most of the reflect, not thinking at all, standard answer to a standard question.

"Anyway, Simon, please, I prefer Toni" Toni ignore the "Miss" thingy. A lady love to here that sound, but for a "party" like this, it is like anything else.

"and Thanks for this" Toni add.

Logan let out an audible sigh of relief when Sakura explained that she had said Obliviate like hello. It was not at all laced with intent. Which him made him feel super foolish and a little ashamed for reacting the way he had. Looking into Sakura's eyes he said hanging with his slightly. "I'm sorry for overreacting on you. I'm just not used to that particular word being used in casual conversation. I guess it's a hazard off my job."

Hoping that he had redeemed himself with that apology Logan focused on Sakura's teacher dream asking curiously. "Do you want to become a professor at Hogwarts or somewhere else?" Maybe she wanted to work with younger kids than 11 year olds and up. Teaching new generations of witches and wizards had to be fun but also challenging.

Watching as Sakura started to pull things from the bag Logan didn't know what she would draw out. Shuddering but smiling he said "No, no definitely not. Make up is not for me. My sisters used me enough as a test subject when were kids for me to like it now." He would though buy make up things for them if asked. Logan could stretch himself to do that. As quills and pencils were pulled out he said with a smile pursing his lips. "Nice. You will be fully stocked on writing materials on your first day of work tomorrow. Are you excited to get started?"

Darwin let out a laugh once Johnson's dancing enthusiasm rubbed off on him. "Hey neither can I, my running man game is strong!" He laughed and gave him and the rest of the world around here and preview of his running man dance move. "You look about ready to slip on those dancing shoes and get going." Darwin teased, perhaps a dancing competition? Hmm, he was competitive at times. Hehe.
Fixing his tie thoughtfully Johnson surveyed the people around him. These were his new colleagues. "Specialty area; I'm a food court associate." Johnson replied with a beaming smile. "I've been a chef more than half my life." Johnson added on. "So long in fact, most of my friends call me CJ, short for Chef Johnson." He missed having the title, but he was ready to try something different. At least now he wasn't working for the crabby Ms. Elsie Lansing.

Johnson laughed at Darwin's dance move. "Can't say I'm too familiar with that one, but I can do a pretty mean sprinkler." Johnson said before breaking into his go to dance move. "Oh, I've been waiting all day." Johnson nodded his head. He was never not ready to put his dancing shoes on.

Ivy's laugh was followed by one of Evie's. She was glad to find a friendly face so soon in the evening. "I think our mothers would get along quite well." Her mother was excellent at making friends anyway.

"I'm sure we will," she replied with a smile. It was always nice knowing someone when you got somewhere knew. Last year she had Benzi... even though that was a little complicated at first. But at least she wasn't alone. Maybe she could keep Ivy company, if she wanted, of course. "It is, actually," Evie replied about the food, stepping away from the table with the goody bags on them. "They always get the best food. There wouldn't be such a line if they didn't." But then again, Evie was an easy target. She loved food. Any food, all food. "I could head over there with you, if you'd like." The offer wasn't completely selfless. Evie didn't particularly fancy being alone all evening.

There was no harm done, and when he explained it like that it made sense. She would probably be the same if she was in his line of job. "It is no worry, I understand. Have you ever been obliviated?" she asked, her eyes growing wide. That would be terrible! Even the thought gave her goosebumps.

A Hogwarts teacher? Sakura shook her head. "I would not want to die," was her immediate response. "Do not get me wrong, but I have heard terrible stories about that school and it gives me the jeebies." She shivered for effect. "I would like to teach primary education, that is my focus right now." Who knows? Maybe she would teach at Hogwarts one day. Or build her own school.

Sakura laughed timidly at his story of his youth. "Funny. Growing up my brothers used me as a dummy." They didn't hurt her thanks to her father's magic; it was more of a fun tumble. "Yes, yes! I like these." Quills and pens for days. She dug into the bag again and brought out a mug. Oh! Look at that. "I am really excited. It means I can rent a flat soon and not live in the Leaky." She bounced happily. Living at the Leaky wasn't too bad...but it had its restrictions.

Darwin nodded as he listened, waved to those walking by, if any. "Oh nice, man! Maybe I'll stop by sometime. I'm really curious as to how good the food will be around here." Not to mention how HUNGRY he was at the moment as well. "I don't have any cool nicknames like you," He chuckled, "but I was formerly a sports healer for the U17 Quidditch League. Magical Transportation will be quite an interesting department, but I hope things go well." He was excited beyond nervous, though it was quite reasonable to feel nervous in a brand new environment. Especially one like the Ministry of Magic.

Laughing he clapped and might have cheered him on. "Not bad. I'm assuming they'll have some good tunes to jam to." He was a big of music as well. "So where are you from?" The basic questions when meeting someone new, right?

"Well, if I get any say in the matter the food will be the best you've ever eaten." Johnson told Darwin seriously. No one came between Johnson and his food. Food was life to the man.

Johnson laughed, "Give it time, we'll find a suitable nickname for you." He nodded his head. Patiently Johnson listened to Darwin, nodding his head as he spoke. "Dude, that's awesome! I don't really follow quidditch nearly as much as I used to when I was in my 20's but I still love playing pick up games." Dude, that was like a loooooooooong time ago... Johnson thought to himself.

"Me? I'm just from Essex. I've kind of moved around England though. I did spend the last five years working for a family as a private chef in the States. They're originally from Australia." Johnson explained. He had to fight to restrain himself from rolling his eyes just thinking of Elsie Lansing. The rest of the family was wonderful, but the old woman was just a little bat crazy.

Chuckling he raised his hands and nodded, "No doubt, I'll take your word for it."

Darwin laughed, because he just couldn't quite come up what nickname can come for Darwin? Maybe Dar? Win? Arwin? "I didn't become heavily involved into Quidditch until I went to school, that's where y'know that burning passion began." He strongly believed that a job should be something you are passionate about, or what's the point of devoting time into something you don't like. Darwin was avid fan of Quidditch, Falmouth Falcons being the team he rep the most! Xavier Baltazar what's good?!

"Wow that's neat. I was born in the States but I am Canadian." He grinned. A VERY proud Canadian, if he may add. Darwin never actually lived in the States after his birth. "How was the job environment?" He asked.

Archer did, however, recoil slightly when he saw Chloe take her wand out. He'd only been joking when he thought that she was going to kill him. But as she pointed the wand towards him, it seemed that it could actually become a reality. "What are yo-"

-__-

Did she seriously just do that. . .

"Chloe. . . I paid like 70 galleons for that jacket. . . " He was trying to stay calm, but that jacket had been actual leather. . . and it was basically the only thing he ever wore. "I cannot believe that you did that." She didn't even give him a better outfit! He was wearing the exact thing that he was avoiding. Archer looked down at the ridiculous dress shoes, scowling to see that even his boots were gone.

Was she seriously lecturing him? After she basically stole his clothes and shoved him into this super itchy suit? "Attitude? She was legit disgusted by what I was attire, my choice of clothes, which is like my identity. Just like you and your stupid prep-dress. If she doesn't like the way I dress, then maybe she should find herself some else to give that 'well-earned' paycheck to. I'm not letting someone else dictate my life." Maybe he was blowing this way out of proportion, but he didn't really care right now. "I'm here to do a job, not to dress up as a lawyer and play at being my dad. I'm not here to have my damn life judged my you either, only to have you whip out your wand to try and magically solve the solution, you can't fix everything with magic. Magic doesn't bring anything back and it sure as hell doesn't solve every problem you have." Some things were better left like they were, even if Chloe couldn't stand something going wrong.

Archer unbuttoned the stupid jacket and started working at untying the horrid tie. This night was already sucking and it had just began, just like he had dreaded. He knew that he just should have stayed home. . . Yanking the now loose tie from his neck, Archer shoved it into Chloe's hands and started making his way past her towards the door. "I'm going home. If you see our boss, tell her that it was lovely meeting her."

He was a man now? So why wasn't he ACTING like that? Yes Chloe was full aware that he had a lot of authority issues for mostly the last five years. Though she didn't know of his disgust for suits, judging from the expression on his face when his clothes were transfigured.

Also, did he totally just INSULT her dress?!

"It's not permanent..." Chloe started to say, but then bit her lower lip as he chewed her down about the paycheck and dressing appropriately. For once in her life, she honestly had no idea what to say. Hayley would know what to say, but sadly the girl wasn't here. She was all on her own with this and then she felt the tie she'd drew up being shoved into her hand.

"Why did you even apply here then if you don't care to dress up on special occasions? If you don't care about working here, then don't. You can just sit home and drown in your own failures. Just because someone can clean up nice does not make them a lawyer or their father, but it means that you actually care about the impression you make on others. The impression you give to Ro. And if you don't care about that impression, then maybe Ro should stay with me for awhile." Yes, she might have been threatening a bit to take his sister away from him, but she was doing it for HIS own good and hers. Ro was a sweet girl, but being subjected to the negativity was not good.

"Perhaps that's for the best that you head off. Get some sleep and think about why you are here." If it was just to make her life hell, well it was going to be a LONG employment history for her time here. Perhaps hanging out with Ro more was a good idea.

But at least she wasn't alone. Maybe she could keep Ivy company, if she wanted, of course. "It is, actually," Evie replied about the food, stepping away from the table with the goody bags on them. "They always get the best food. There wouldn't be such a line if they didn't." But then again, Evie was an easy target. She loved food. Any food, all food. "I could head over there with you, if you'd like." The offer wasn't completely selfless. Evie didn't particularly fancy being alone all evening.
They probably would and had Ivy's mom lived closer, she might've even suggested they all do lunch or something, get more acquainted. She was never one to pass up the opportunity to meet new people in a new city but unfortunately, her mother was still in Paris.

"That is a very good point." And it made her want to brave the line of people so she could do a little taste testing herself. She'd had something small before coming just in case the food turned out to be a wash, but Evangeline seemed trustworthy enough and there were an awful lot of people frequenting that area of the orientation. "Yeah, I'd like that. Shall we?" The brunette adjusted her swag back, tucking the other items she'd gotten at the table in safely with the rest. Then with a smile, she lead the way to the food.
