| Northern Line of the London Underground The abandoned stations along the Northern Line have been reclaimed for use by the Department of Magical Law Enforcement. It's dark down there! |
02-09-2014, 04:40 AM
| | Office of Department Head Emily Browne
The sealed off exit from the main platform of Alexandra Palace station doesn't boast the prestigious décor of the Department Head's Ministry office. The hideous cream and maroon tiles the line the walls are grimy and chipped in places – and that's if they haven't been plastered over in parts. There are a few spindly wooden folding chairs and a dull second hand desk at one end of the room, a small filing cabinet sits in the corner and trunk for general storage sits by the door. Unless you know the password of the hour and/or are apt in the art of defensive charms and counter-curses then access to this area of the platform is limited, that is unless you're willing to part with one of your limbs.
Department Head Emily Browne is more inclined to spend her time on the communal work floor, so unless you have an appointment, you'll be hard pressed to find her here. Though this space may be used for private meetings and small conferences in general. |

| Vanessa the Snot Girl l Rachels Rule | rock,tumble,&roll ❆ adorable coffee bean Hmmm. Ashby figured that she would want to know why. The department head rolled her eyes. This was not going to go away was it? He sighed. "They both appeared on my ship." And well he hadn't liked that. "Expecting us to give them a tour. Obviously I don't want people who don't work in my department looking around. We're called unspeakables for a reason." And so nobody else could know what they were doing down there.
"I made it very clear that they would not be having a tour, but they feel they are still okay to come back at a better time." Which was not good. "Something fishy is going on here." He shook his head. "They stated that Gavin had told them to come, but he denied this." Which he was glad off. He didn't want an ex-employee of his turning on his department.
"The pair are just....very suspicious to me."

| ½ EagleBrain ♥ Creeperdoodle ♥ Raven Dor ♥ Berry ♥ ½ Team House Elf And would you lookit that, eyerolling. That was never a good sign. Emily braced herself for whatever was about to be said. Patience, she was learning to exercise it, if only to be professional. The whole appearing on his ship for a tour bit, that, she could understand. She wasn't particularly thrilled with the idea of people snooping around her department that didn't belong there. "Of course, I understand," she nodded, empathising with the man.
It was only now that she took a seat, and gestured for him to do the same, though honestly, standing was likely the more comfortable option. Her self control and practice at indifference had finally paid off, because she would have otherwise she wouldn't have been able to keep a straight face. "Gavin denied it.. good..." she mused in the same level tone she'd used before. She was peicing it together though. Neves was obedient, had snooped, but was caught... Gavin denied his part, now had plans.. and...
She did not want to be caught in the middle of this. But there was really only one side she would choose in the end. "If it makes you feel any better, Williamson already has my attention, but I'll see to it that they both get checked out."
Suspicious indeed.

| Vanessa the Snot Girl l Rachels Rule | rock,tumble,&roll ❆ adorable coffee bean "Yes. It is good." Very good in his opinion. "Gavin is a ex-employee of the department, so obviously he must understand that access all areas cannot be given to everyone." And only his unspeakables were allowed to go everywhere, and the other department head's of course. Ashby was wondering who had told this Neves guy to come down, but that was the least of his worries. As long as the two men in question did not come back, he would be a happy man.
"Ahh. Perfect." He smiled at Emily. "Thank you." Because he was grateful to the woman for helping him out. "In other news...." Because he wanted to make this known. "The security patrols are very prompt. Mr Bennett did a good job."

| ½ EagleBrain ♥ Creeperdoodle ♥ Raven Dor ♥ Berry ♥ ½ Team House Elf "Of course, and I know for a fact he's conscious of the matter you speak of," she reassured. Of course, naturally, because she'd had that lovely chat with him during break. He was a responsible ex-Unspeakable, he just had a daft employee that couldn't exercise stealth and a Creatures tag-along with the maturity of a nine year old - she would know.
Good. A resolution was reached, between them at least, which meant she could soon slip out of her office too. "Not a problem, it's part of the job description," she noted waving off his thanks. It was nothing. But ahhh! Now there was a compliment she could appreciate. "Excellent, I'm so pleased... Bennett's a promising employee, he's got some ground to cover yet, but he's dependable and thorough," she affirmed, content with finally receiving some good feedback for Security.

| Vanessa the Snot Girl l Rachels Rule | rock,tumble,&roll ❆ adorable coffee bean Ahhh. Okay. A solution had been reached now. Ashby was glad. Hopefully he would have no other issues with these two men now. But now he would need to return to his department. Because hopefully he would be able to get some work now. "Perfect." He nodded with a smile. "I shall leave now. I'm sure you have lots of work to do." As did he. Busy lives they live.
"Goodbye Emily." He nodded, before leaving the office. Time to go back to his ship.

See, Gavin didn't know what he was on about. Being accommodating and reaching resolutions meant people could leave sooner, and likely not return. The Senior Undersecretary would be informed of this. "As always," she agreed, chuckling under her breath. Honestly, when was MLE not busy? "Have a good day, Ashby," she fare-welled, watching him leave the room before finally scrawling a note in her planner, securing it and departing her office herself. Things to do, people to see, crims to catch.

| Toothless - Napoleon of Crime - Gryffinclaw - Owl Emissary - Pirate Auror - DoctorDonna Simon moved to follow obediantly after the department head but it appeared she wanted him to lead so he did so without uttering a word. There wasn't much to say at the moment , not that he felt much the need to talking out of turn at the moment. He finally noticed the redhead from the café talking to Vic in passing as he walked and dreaded what words and lies would be coming from her mouth.
He finally stepped inside the makeshift office since he had been granted permission by the invitation and avoided looking at the unsavory surroundings that matched most of the department around. It seemed Emily didn't fare much better then the rest of them even with Josh's cleaning. Further in, the auror simply stood and awaited whatever was to come his way. The former Gryffindor doing his best not to show any discomfort before his boss. Hopefully the truth and progress of the happenings would be enough to defend him.

| ½ EagleBrain ♥ Creeperdoodle ♥ Raven Dor ♥ Berry ♥ ½ Team House Elf Her patience was thin, with people, with everything. But she was keen to process her thoughts and so following in Bennett's footsteps was a sound way of doing so. Walking was conducive to thinking, and she tended to walk too quick at times. No point rushing. The sealed of platform exit was somewhat spacious, and had a charm about it.. never mind the smell, but the echoing could be a problem. Either way, she waited for Bennett to close the door, since it was charmed to contain noise and voices, before saying anything. "How are you feeling?" she asked first, eyes on his head. Mmhhmm. She was doing that nice thing first, it was generally a good way to start conversations, apparently.

| Toothless - Napoleon of Crime - Gryffinclaw - Owl Emissary - Pirate Auror - DoctorDonna When Emily had followed him inside she seemed to want him to close the door which he gladly agreed to. Enough had been overheard already by people he'd rather never see again, a sentiment likely shared by the woman before him. Doing so, Simon turned back towards his collegue and boss as she asked him about his condition having walked into the containment area shortly after the run-in with his arrestee. "I've felt better," was the answer his mind came up with it. It was the truth and cut and dry. And he personally didn't want to dwell on it...on the lucky shot the journalist had gotten with hits that hadn't even felt full force given the fact Jorge's hands had been restrained.

| ½ EagleBrain ♥ Creeperdoodle ♥ Raven Dor ♥ Berry ♥ ½ Team House Elf "Mmmmm...." she mumbled in response to his reply, casually perching herself on the edge of her desk. Needless to say, this was one meeting she hadn't scheduled for today, and she really didn't like having to accommodate the change, it was the product of drama, and she loathed drama.
She didn't ask him to sit, this wasn't his first rodeo, he was welcome to make himself comfortable in whichever way he pleased.
There was a short pause between his reply and her next question, but this was only natural for her. "Are you going to press charges?" she asked, wondering if he actually wanted to go through with this. She didn't give him time enough to respond just yet, it was partly her thinking out loud, but in doing so, she wasn't done yet. "See, I'm all for supporting my staff, and I will support whatever decision it is that you make... however," and there was a however, "this whole saga, is over the top and frankly does not do the department any justice when it comes to public relations."
There would be an article about this, they'd be stupid not to run it - not to say she was condoning it, she wasn't and wouldn't... and that feeling of wanting to burn the Prophet Headquarters down was returning. It was a terrible shame she had to play the role of responsible and law-abiding Department Head.

| Toothless - Napoleon of Crime - Gryffinclaw - Owl Emissary - Pirate Auror - DoctorDonna Emily didn't say much for his answer and it wasn't as if he expected her to. Simon wasn't asking for her sympathy over what had happened and wasn't going to hold his breath about getting anything of the sort from her. He could handle the injury without too much comment...he was an auror and had gotten worse.
And then the shoe dropped and the topic he WAS expecting was brought up. The auror moved to prepare to speak, stopping and awaiting Emily continuing her speech as she went on. Once he was certain that the department head was indeed done, Simon took a deep breath and finished gathering this own thoughts to provide his best answer to her question. "To be honest, I was considering not and letting him simply cool his heals," he started out with which had been the truth. He had said it to Jorge himself. "The arrest was not only because of Mr. De La Garza's actions against myself but also because of his seemingly unwillingness to back down, my desire not to fight back and the feeling that the next move might have involved a wand and bigger trouble." He didn't feel the need to even go into talk of statutes and the thought of giving Aron's department more work besides MLE. He had in his defense, done his best to act like a muggle cop to keep it further on the down low. "However..." Simon said, breaking off as he debated his further thoughts. He did have his own however, looking to her for further advice on the matter. "despite the fact I do not wish harm to the department, in light of the reporter's unprovoked further attack on me once we arrived in the holding area, I am admittedly torn on the matter."

| ½ EagleBrain ♥ Creeperdoodle ♥ Raven Dor ♥ Berry ♥ ½ Team House Elf Crossing one leg over the other, her hands resting on the table either side of her, Emily nod her head as she listened to his thoughts. Lips pursed, she considered the fact that he had thought about dropping it, and indeed she approved -- even if seeing the man locked up and charged would make her day. He was hardly a crim, just a public nuisance - one that needed taking down a peg or two.
She could of course, see where Bennett was coming from with regard to the initial incident. Things had escalated a little too quickly for her liking, and in such a public and muggle setting.. it wasn't ideal. How it all happened was still beyond her. Bennett didn't seem the type to pull moves on older, higher-up and taken women. He wasn't stupid, was he? Pffftttt.. no. And even if it had been the case, she was 100% certain he hadn't been strong in his gestures, the man had manners, De La Garza did not. Her nodding was enough to indicate she was listening, agreeing - even if only partially, and thinking.
The further attack bit, now that did work against the journalist. Arrogant fool. "And what exactly happened?" she asked, owing to the fact that she hadn't witnessed it herself, arriving shortly after them.

| Toothless - Napoleon of Crime - Gryffinclaw - Owl Emissary - Pirate Auror - DoctorDonna Simon's attention remained solely on Emily as he spoke, inwardly awaiting a reaction to his answer. However she revealed nothing and as much as he was trained to catch meanings from movements, she too had the same training and thus kept her own simple. The woman only nodding which he took as a sign of her listening if not agreeing in some way to what he was saying. As she finally broke her silence to ask for his statement the incident, he in turn finally lowered his gaze to close it for a moment, the blurry vision temporarily returning as he spoke once more. "As directed with the new procedures, I had placed a bodybind on Mr. De La Garza before portkeying to the designated portion of the tunnel. However upon arrival to the holding area, I discovered that due to the enchantments used to cordon off the portion of the tunnel, I was unable to remove it while on the other side of the wards from the man unlike the normal department set-up." That had been trouble number one in the situation he spoke of. No one's fault but something they all needed to be advised about. he just happened to be the first one to use the area and notice the issue. "So I brought him inside and secured his wrists, in front to forgo further accusations of mistreatment." In retrospect, not the greatest idea he mused to himself, looking up once more. "Then I removed the body-bind and cautiously backed away to leave him be. Though between needing to remove the ward once more to pass back through and being alert to the new presence in the tunnels, aka Josh, I turned away from the journalist. Who in turn used the moment to fight me, first hitting here," Simon said, briefly touching the area and winching ever so slightly, "and then a passing blow to the back of the head as I struck out towards his stomach to dissuade him from further attack before asking my fellow auror for assistance."
That had been when she had arrived so she had been properly filled in on what had happened since they had separated outside the cafe.

| ½ EagleBrain ♥ Creeperdoodle ♥ Raven Dor ♥ Berry ♥ ½ Team House Elf Her expression was one of indifference as she patiently heard out Bennett's side of the story. Merlin, as much as she liked her work, this brand of drama was not what she'd signed up for. She nod her head once again, and observed where Simon indicated he had been struck. Idiot journalist. She hoped he would find himself out of a job, but with Skeeter at the helm of that wretched publication, anything was possible, the man might have even considered handing him a promotion. Little faith in Propheteers she had.
Carter. He was an element all of his own and frankly she hoped he hadn't done anything rash in their absence. The reporter was still in one piece, no? "Mmm... right," she announced after a moment of contemplation. "De La Garza is a public nuisance for sure... antagonistic, belligerent, I'm convinced we could still have him for defamation... but, at the end of the day, I think exercising a policy of appeasement might be in our best interest. The ball is however, in your court." She wasn't going to put words in his mouth. As far as she was concerned she'd like to think the journalist would have learned his lesson, calmed down and could sit for another hour or two before being released. "How would you like us to proceed?"

| Toothless - Napoleon of Crime - Gryffinclaw - Owl Emissary - Pirate Auror - DoctorDonna Defamation...that was for certain. Jorge had definitely made negative assumptions and accusations about him that couldn't have been further from the truth and in front of not one, but TWO department head superiors including his boss. Simon only hoped Emily, and the other members of the MLE that were the recipient of his lies and the lies of others, knew him better than that. He was certain Mariel was a lost cause and made a mental note of staying faaaar away from the woman who was not worth the polite acquaintance.
As the ball was left to him to make the decision, Simon couldn't help sighing unsure. He really didn't want more trouble but he also felt the urge to defend if not himself alone the department as a whole which had taken a hit that day as well as the previous article. "It seems a catch-22." There were a few directions this could go and there didn't seem to be one way that was overly better than the rest. "What are the chances of having him leave here not thinking he gets his way no matter what?"
The auror had no desire for that annoying smirk to grace the man's face once more as he left with his head held high.

| ½ EagleBrain ♥ Creeperdoodle ♥ Raven Dor ♥ Berry ♥ ½ Team House Elf That wasn't an answer Simon. She wanted an answer. She didn't want to continue wasting her time or the departments time with the loud mouthed idiot man. He wasn't worth it. The day when he could be sent to Azkaban, or extradited back to whatever hole he came from, now that would be worth it, but this... no. "That's not going to happen," she replied honestly. "Unless he loses his job and girlfriend in the process, he'll think he's won no matter what. I wouldn't be surprised if he wanted this to happen, simply to have another opportunity to get at us." In which case Bennett played straight into his hand. She wasn't comfortable with having three reporters roaming around her tunnels. Get. Them. Out. Now. "Make good choices Bennett, I'm not in a mood for salvaging the department... again..." Merlin knew Wes has made it hard enough with his prompt departure post-de Talone.

| Toothless - Napoleon of Crime - Gryffinclaw - Owl Emissary - Pirate Auror - DoctorDonna In all truth, Simon knew the answer before Emily had opened her mouth to confirm it verbally. Had just been in denial that it could go well on that end. "Thought as much," he said quietly, lowering his head slightly as he thought on her words to make his decision, his gaze eventually falling again to the folder of paperwork in his hands only half complete. Taking it up in both hands, he opened it and shifted some papers around as he sorted through the contents . "Then this is all you need," the auror said, placing the folder with the written version of his statement. The first thing he had thought to complete and likely needed for a simple incident report. "And this is gone," he said, vanishing the partly filled charge slips into the trash before looking back up to meet his boss' gaze however fuzzy. He really should get Josh to cast something to try and help it once he was through here. "I won't sacrifice the department for my sake."

| ½ EagleBrain ♥ Creeperdoodle ♥ Raven Dor ♥ Berry ♥ ½ Team House Elf See, even Bennett knew the man didn't have a reasonable bone in his body. She watched the auror with a curious expression, eager to see what the outcome would be. Either way she wanted to act on it swiftly, get it over and done with, get them off their premises so that they could get back to doing some real work - or as much real work as was possible. Top on her list of things to-do was to get back into the Ministry building. Too much time had passed and it would make getting proper work done more efficient. They needed their case files and evidences for starters. Could hardly pursue and prosecute without them.
Her brows arched as he finally retrieved an item from the folder. His statement. "Excellent," she nodded, extracting it from his grip with spiders-legs-like fingers. Yoink. "You're a bigger man than he is, Bennett.." Emily stated the obvious, "If this is all then you may be dismissed... have that there looked at," she added, gesturing to his head. He looked all sorts of rattled. "I'll see too De La Garza's dismissal."

| Toothless - Napoleon of Crime - Gryffinclaw - Owl Emissary - Pirate Auror - DoctorDonna Had she expected something different?
Both the curious look sent his way as he acted and the raised eyebrow as he handed over the parchment seemed to show Emily taken aback even just a tad. However the department head was also agreeable with his decision whatever other feelings she had on the matter. Simon even noted the compliment she gave him, an action so rare from the woman, but admittedly it was hard to be happy about it under the circumstances. He was, after all, essentially throwing himself on his sword and allowing the rude man to not pay for his words and actions. "Very well," he said, taking the dismissal for what it was worth for he had no further business here, in her office. Giving a slight dip of the head in polite gesture, Simon turned and head out the way he came. The auror inwardly wondering if he should vanish while the intru--- visitors still lingered. Avoid any further confrontation with the reporter and his posse.

| ½ EagleBrain ♥ Creeperdoodle ♥ Raven Dor ♥ Berry ♥ ½ Team House Elf Yes... very well. Indeed.
....
Today was a blemish on her week already, she would need cuddlesa drink after work, for sure, so she only hoped Gavin didn't have anything too important planned for his evening, as she was set to invade it. "Thank you... Bennett," she added, seeing the back of him head out her office.
Emily cast an eye over the statement before filing it away. If anything, at least the man had a warning to his name. And with that, she figured it was time to cut him loose, she had plans to put in place for the Ministry re-entry, plans which were of greater importance than him. Securing her office, Emily departed just down the way to the holding area.

| ★ BabyQuad ★ PERRY THE PLATYPUS ★ Ern's Fave ★ dangerous with brooms ★ Here was was, thinking that going back to Ministry....actually meant going back to the Ministry. Although it wasn't his first time being wrong, Legend Chosen never thought he'd be this wrong. It hadn't taken him that long to figure out how to get around the new headquarters for the MLE. Just you know, few lefts, few rights, few missed tunnels and voila! He was here. Or somewhere. This had to be the new Department Head's office right?
Emily probably loved it. Without a second thought, Legend knocked on the door a few times.

Emily probably loved it. Without a second thought, Legend knocked on the door a few times. She didn't care much for unexpected visits, but in MLE that was usually the case. On particularly busy days she may as well have installed a revolving door to boot, but this day had been relatively quiet ... until now. Scratching her insignia on one last document, Emily filed it away in the cabinet before answer the door.
The hinges on the ill-fitting door - that didn't belong in a tunnel to begin with - creaked slightly as they swung backward, allowing her a good look at her space invader. "Well look what the cat dragged in," she mused, smirked. With a head tilt toward her poor excuse of an office desk, Emily accepted his entrance. "It's good to see you in once piece, Chosen," she added, a hand extended for a shake to convey her delight in his presence.

Grinning, Legend's eyes quickly flickered to Emily's outstretched hand before ignoring it completely. Yup. "EMILY!" Instead he wrapped is arms around her in a quick hug. It didn't last long, because obviously Legend did not want to die on his first day back."Not likely a cat. Took like a mountain lion to drag me back." Heh. She had missed him! Of course! When Legend had heard that Emily was the department head he was actually happy for her. Her attitude was a bit uptight but it kind of fit with the position, Legend couldn't deny that. Plus he knew she worked hard and could get any job done. "Been managing horribly without me?" He asked, side stepping into the make shift office.

Her arm fell to her side as she was enveloped by his arms... did her shirt today read 'hug me'? Because she was certain it didn't, and thus could not fathom why anyone would. Had Carter spread word about her hugging him? Was this pay back? Was this everyone's efforts at teasing her for it? Because if Carter's loose lips were responsible for this outburst, then those lips would be in a great deal of danger.
As it was, she didn't really mind the hug, but she wouldn't condone it, and she was thankful when he pulled away.
Closing the door behind them, Emily offered him a shrug, "we've managed," was her reply. But really, his coming back would do wonders for their team, what with his experiences and all. Claiming her seat, Emily gestured for Chosen to take the other. "How did you find your time in the field?"

Claiming her seat, Emily gestured for Chosen to take the other. "How did you find your time in the field?" They managed! See! She had missed him. Aww. Aww. Don't worry! He was back.
Legend plopped down into the seat, ignoring the little squeaks it gave off, and how unsteady the thing was. And uncomfortable. Super uncomfortable. "It was..." Legend waved his hand around trying to find the right word. "Informative" That was it. Though he had to explain more. "And painful." Legend leaned back in the chair carefully, since it seemed like it could really break at any moment. "I mean, I learned a lot. Thinking on my feet, playing it cool. Really lots to do with tracking and wandless magic." His two weakest areas were now one of his strongest. He would even say his use of defensive charms and curses had gotten better but he had already been so great at that, that there was no point in bragging. " I also learned that I was most likely not as great as an Auror as I thought I was before......actually i'm positive that I was an obnoxious newbie ." He had just been trying to prove his worth! Okay? That was all. "But now i'm an obnoxious professional." The blond grinned. See how honest he was too? He was even ready to play nice. You know not get into fights anymore with certain people.....at least not as many fights.
