Ms. Grey. And the woman was so polite.
"Oh do call me Inez, we are at a party after all." she grinned a litte, with a scrunch of her nose. Besides, with the information spoken right after the girl calling her such a proper name, Inez wasn't her boss.
"Oh an Ambassador? Any specific country of work, or many different venues?" she asked curiously. It would be nice to hear Germany as her answer, it was so nice there.

He was very much a seafood-veggie guy, but he is also well aware that he can no longer pass as some punk teen that can unashamedly stuff their faces in.
He turned his head to look at her again when she mentioned about desserts "'Bit of a sweet tooth are you?" he grinned, reading her smile she looks to be big on desserts "Which one from those are your favorite?" he asked angling his head towards the dessert spread.
He held out his hand and shook hers solidly but gently "Pleased to meet you Inez, I'm Corin Vanderbilt, formerly with the Transportation Department, now with Mysteries."
She blushed a little bit as he picked up on her love of desserts from her giving him a bit too much information as she munched on the chocolate covered strawberries.
"I am." It was nice that he wasn't poking fun at her about it though. Her ex never liked her to eat sweets.
"Well," she said taking her time to look over each of the dishes--it wouldn't do well to overlook one.
"If I were to do my dessert over I would pick the devil's food cake over there or the crembrule!" she hadn't even seen that last dish before. *pout*
Turning back to face the man as he decided to introduce himself.
'Enough with the desserts Inez, be normal.' she hissed at herself.
"Oh you are a Department Head too and from Transportation?" She asked excitedly and then pointed at herself.
"I am the new Transportation Department Head." It was so good to finally meet one of her new collegues.
"How weird is this?" she asked with a chuckle.
