Have a meal on the Ministry! All you can eat buffet.

TeafortheSoul · 03-22-2011, 01:43 AM

There were two reasons Evander was wandering. One was for fuel. And one was simply to keep his eyes on the crowd.

And the third was because he wasn't in the best mood and needed a moment.

He approached the buffet.

Colley · 03-22-2011, 01:56 AM

She wasn't actually interested in the food, but actually, Lilyan Moretti was attempting to find a spot away from the crowd around Borr's seat, ~~and children~~.

There were an AWFUL lot of people there, all that recycled air wasn't very good for your lungs.

Whatever was going on had Tate set in a urgency he wouldn't even consider questioning. With a nod of his head, he gave Arya's hand a slight tug and started towards the student table. Despite all the questions bubbling beneath the surface, he knew he was going to have to do the one thing he hated doing, and wait.

Helllloooo Lovely Lilyan Moretti! Rawrrr. Heh.

Alexander looked around a time or two and then remembered that HE didn't really have a set job here, so he wasn't leaving his station to mingle. Sweet.

Stepping up to the right of the woman he cleared his throat slightly and said, "Quite a stupendous thing you did at the dais, Healer Moretti. You should be commended for kissing His Lordship." Yes. We know he smells and it sweaty. You deserve our undying devotion for such bravery in the face of such... stink.

Cassirin · 03-22-2011, 02:03 AM

Tate spotted someone he thought could give him a hand with his troubles, or at least point him in the right direction. He gave Lovegoods a pat on the head and Dakest a clasp to the shoulder as they moved past him.

Almost casually, Tate hooked Lily by the arm as he walked. "Introduce me to Bole." No arguments accepted.

AmbiguouslyMe · 03-22-2011, 02:11 AM

Merlin's silk jammies! Emmalee certainly had a knack for wandering into things...

Not having paid much attention as she rummaged through the gift bag to find another shirt (hideous,) some coupons (life savers on a budget) and a sneakoscope (perfect for living alone), Emmalee slipped up next to the buffet table, head still stuck in her bag. Perhaps this party wasn't a waste after all.

Absently reaching for a carrot stick, she dragged it through the dip and crunched on it as she shook the gift pack of Bott's beans. Bott... she sighed at the memory of her meltdown in the street, courtesy of the Bott girl.

It was then that Emmalee realized others were having conversation near her and she looked up. ... Alex? Had he followed her? Apparently 'see you soon' was sooner than she thought. And that other one... was the headmaster, right? She tried to recall; she'd seen a picture, somewhere.

She wondered if she should make herself scarce, seeing as folks were acting oddly all around this place, but she was hungry. And so she stayed, nomming on carrots, casting glances at the other folk rather casually, as if looking around for a friend.

She did not know this man.

Though, the man apparently knew her.

Obviously because of the Borr thing. "Italians have a special way of greeting, it was second nature I suppose." She smiled and suddenly there was someone beside her.

Who knew she was so popular?

Oh. It was Casey. And he was literally stealing her away. Lily glanced at the man over her shoulder and gave a departing wave. "He's supposed to be working." She hadn't even seen him over there until Tate directed them towards him.

**Alexander Wrekin** · 03-22-2011, 02:34 AM

Hmmm. Well THAT was rude. Not that it was not widely known by now that Gaellen Tate was bloody rude anyway. If they weren't so out in the open he would set the man's pant leg on fire. Grrr.

Turning from Lilyan after giving her a finger waggle he smiled sweetly ~~as he could~~ at Emmalee. "Are you following me?" he asked with a slight smirk as he grabbed up a few pieces of pineapple and popped them in his mouth. Nom.

"I don't care if he's knee deep in it, Lilybud. We need him. Right now." He knew he was being a bit too handsy, considering the fact that he was literally escorting the woman the few remaining feet to where Bole stood, but Max would have contacted him as a last resort.

And last resorts meant it was time to move. Now.

"I could ask the same," she said, a bit sassy, as she swiped again at the dip.

"I came for the carrots. Stayed for the show," she gestured toward the departing folk, dressing dripping from the end of her carrot baton.

"There anyone you don't waggle your fingers at?" She raised an eyebrow as bit down on her carrot. CRUNCH.

???? "Why? What's wrong?" This obviously wasn't a social visit.

They NEED him? Lilyan wasn't sure why Tate suddenly NEEDED to see her boyfriend, but suddenly they were THERE. "Van?" She touched his arm to get his attention.

Alex quirked an eyebrow and smirked at her. She really was a little minx, wasn't she? "I am more of a leader than a follower," he said with a chuckle. He cracked himself up sometimes.

"There are loads of people I dun waggle my fingers at, really. Seemed unkind to not give her a parting waggle though," he pointed out with an even wider grin.

Lezleighd · 03-22-2011, 02:50 AM

Iridesca snuck off from her post helping serve people hoping to run into her favoritist niece, Satine. She walked over to the Buffet that seemed to be swarming with Hogwarts students. She thought it was odd that so many of them were there...and she really wasn't sure why they were here at all. She had to admit that she was a little bit embarrassed for them after the singing fiasco, but she had been proud to see her little purple niece up there smiling and singing along.

She glanced up and down the buffet and the crowd of sudents looking for her niece and wandered closer to the table as she glanced. She looked for both that signature purple hair and for the Headmaster. She had never met him, but she wanted to tell him that she thought that the students had done a great job on such a spur of the moment performance. She was a proud Hogwarts graduate afterall and was happy and impressed with anything they did.

Just as she had spotted the Headmaster she saw a patronus approach him...she tried not to eavesdrop but couldn't help but hear. She headed quickly over towards the Headmaster.

"Sir, if you need help, I don't mind coming back and helping..." she held out her hand, "Iridesca MacMillan, Obliviator." she said with a serious face and a little nod...she didn't like the sound of this at all but would offer her help.

"Is that so," she said a bit brazenly as she reached for another carrot stick. She let it hang between her teeth before snapping it and chewing thoughtfully.

"How long before we throw this sort of shindig for you, then?" she ventured, popping a cherry tomato in after the carrot.

She smirked, then. "The finger waggle could net you some female support, I'd imagine. And the ire of many a boyfriend."

"I didn't say I was this... out in the open. Just that I am not the type to follow. This is too gross a display for my own taste," he said smoothly. WAY TOO GROSS A DISPLAY. This was a sodding circus and had he been given the choice he would be wreaking havoc elsewhere in Diagon Alley all this time. But Noooooooo. Pft.

Chuckling softly he nodded his head thoughtfully and said, "I will be sure to credit you with my widespread waggle then. It was ALL Miss Quinn's idea that I employ it so freely, I will tell them." You know... the obligatory THEM.

She had his attention almost straight away actually, and Evander turned his attention to Lily and then... to the headmaster.

... he could stop 'escorting' Lilyan now.

He could.

Van glanced towards Iridesca, the Obliviator and then back at the Hogwarts folk, managing a quick rueful smile for Lily before turning all business.

"Whats the problem?" As in, whats the problem now?

"Gaellen Tate. I have a sort of..."

And then they were joined by just the sort of person he'd been hoping to solicit Bole for assistance in finding. An obliviator with good hearing. And a penchant for eavesdropping, which he didn't mind in the least at the moment.

"I have an issue back at the school that requires the immediate departure of the students and myself," Tate addressed the entire group now, although he was hoping Bole would understand why he was being included shortly. "I'm told we need an obliviator, which isn't surprising in the least. We had Muggles in Hogsmeade last visit, and I'm afraid the wards might be failing."

And since they weren't bowing on formality... "Is there a convenient Floo? I think the limos are stretching the bounds of my better nature." What little there was.

An apt choice of words... a very apt choice of words. "True though that may be, I do enjoy free food," she said, grabbing another carrot stick.

Twirling it a bit in her hand, though, she appraised him. "You'd best give me credit and waggle often. How else will I know who you are in ten years, Alex with-no-last-name?" CRUNCH "Can't go around supporting every Alexander in the hopes that I'll recognize your aged face," she teased, laughing lightly.

She cast a glance over at what looked to be turning into a quite serious conversation, though she couldn't hear what they were saying. Didn't these people know it was a party? First at the gift table and now here. Serious serious.

"Evander Bole." Van answered in kind but didn't dwell on introductions. Obviously the man knew who he was.

He listened and then nodded once. "Theres a floo from the curse breakers headquarters at Gringotts." He gestured in that direction. Not far away at all.

As for the wards...

"Would you like an auror to accompany you as well? Take a look around Hogsmeade." And Evander particularly would LOVE to get eyes in there, place someone to get past the cultists.

Regardless of if Tate wished to take an auror now, Evander intended to send a patrol up that way. "I may be able to accompany you myself." And escape Borr.

Hmmm. Now that they were at their destination and Casey had stopped "escorting" which was actually more like pulling her, she slid her arm from his and patted his arm as if to thank him for... pulling her.

Sigh. Manners. She couldn't help it.

"Casey has-" She glanced at the man, making a face at him.........

Lily sighed, "Well, am I supposed to walk up to him and start introducing people without getting his attention first?" She sort of mumbled it. It wasn't really important any more, there was apparently DRAMA.

Muggle drama. "A problem with Muggles, apparently..." Thank you Captain Obvious.

Now that she was clued in on it all, she glanced at Van, not having much to offer. This was news to her too.

"Who doesn't enjoy free food?" he asked. Giving her a little wink he appraised a piece of chocolate for a moment. Ew. That was SLOPPILY put together and looked like it was OLD and DISGUSTING. How dare someone put this trash out for Lord Borr? He made a mental note to track the person down and set the rest of the chocolate on fire.

"Will do, Miss Quinn. Will do. And might makes you think I won't age rather gracefully. Perhaps in ten years I will look identical to how I appear now," he teased slightly.

He followed her gaze to Tate and company. Oh lookit that. Evander Bole himself. Front and center. Interesting. Alex stared at the man for a few moments in hope to catch HIS eye and give him a waggle too. Chortling slightly he watched the group with renewed interest.

Lezleighd · 03-22-2011, 03:43 AM

Iridesca shook her head at the Headmaster listening to everything he was saying her usual smile faded away to a very serious face...she was instantly worried about her niece but pushed that thought to the back of her head.

"Yes, I'll help you out with anything that you need..." she said nodding her head up and down slightly, "A convenient Floo? I don't really know actually...I'm afraid that leaving from here might cause a huge stir...maybe we should sneak out the back door that we've been bringing the food through and find a floo elsewhere..." she glanced from side to side and then said under her breath loud enough for the small ground to hear..."We wouldn't want Borr to decide he wants to sent backup to help."

"Oh, I suppose someone, somewhere, thinks that free food is not worth eating," she said, rolling her eyes and waving her hand dismissively. "I, on the other hand, find it a fine method for staying fed."

Slipping her hand in her purse, Emmalee fingered a charmed bag. Insulated.

"I wish you luck in your quest for eternal youth, then," she teased. Looking down the buffet, she spotted some far more scrumptious looking options on the other side of the the serious gathering.

"This is where I leave, again, Alex," she said lightly. "Try not to follow this time?" She winked, her green eyes sparkling as she walked away, pulling the insulated bag from her purse.

Slipping past the confab of seriousness, catching only the fewest of words, Emmalee made her way to the far end of the table.

With a quick, furtive glance, she slipped the bag near the edge of the table, and quickly pushed the spring rolls in. Tying it quickly, she stuffed it back in her purse.

What? It was dinner.

"If not to look at the wards, perhaps to help our Obliviator escort any troublemakers off the grounds," Tate agreed with a short nod. Now this here was a man who knew how to get right down to the root of an issue. Clearly not a mere Auror who couldn't find his own socks if they were stuck with a charm to his feet.

"I could go the rest of my life and not hear 'problem with Muggles' and be perfectly happy," Tate grumbled generally, although it was obvious it wasn't really aimed at Lily.

"Can you help to gather up the students to get them to the Floo? I'm not sure how far they've wandered." And it didnt help that everyone in the place was dressed alike.
