What he didn't know was that his cheeks turned slightly pink. "That's very nice of you to say," he smiled in response, "but I was actually thinking that I may be the boring one here, and not you."
A wide grin spread across his face as she mentioned something about him being noticeable. "Not really. I am more of a loner." Not LONELY lonely but, just as he'd already said, not Mr Popular either. And... what about having limited choices? "Well, now you've met me. One more person to help you reach that 'ton of new peeps'." At that, he wiggled his fingers in the air to quote her, since he never really used the word 'peep'. He found it amusing, though.
Just as he noticed her swinging her legs, Konrad made a step closer to the fountain and leaned against it, crossing his arms over his chest. He felt... awkward, just standing there, so a bit of support would help. Listening to what she was telling him, he couldn't help but look surprised. "You worked for Weasley's Wizarding Wheezes?" He couldn't say he bought things from that shop, but it never failed to amaze him. The only thing that stopped him from buying was his age, unfortunately. Maybe it was time to act more mature and all, but he still had silly moments. Ooooh, she worked in the Accident and Catastrophes department as well? "That's... quite impressive. But I'm glad you've joined the level one team," he grinned. It's not like there was some war going on between the Ministry's levels, but it was still good to know that she was a fellow employee.
He laughed when she said something about the new minister. "Good thing you weren't around the previous minister." The one who shall not be named, because those walls had EARS. What if someone passing by heard the name and decided to stop and eavesdrop? Eh?
Iridesca got a little bit nervous as his cheeks got a little shade of red on them.....had she said something wrong...was that just a nice laugh or a nervous one...but she quickly understood what had caused those..."
O, well, I just met you and don't seem boring at all...but if you really think you are boring then you just need to get more spontaneous and fun friends..." she said with a little wink...she still couldn't imagine a man built like this was boring.
She giggled at his loner comment and then at his quoting fingers..."
I still doubt that you are loner...loners don't walk up to strangers that are crazy and throwing pennies...not even Wizarding money, but pennies into a fountain in a formal setting..." she said with a little touch to his elbow with her left hand.
"
Yes, it was my first job after graduating from Hogwarts. I worked there for almost two years and then decided that I needed to settle into one place...traveling around the world isn't the greatest way to meet new peeps..." she said as she watched the other employees coming to work...everyone seemed so hurried and frantic...she wished they would slow down and look around at all the beautimous things in the lobby..."
I have to admit that I'm glad to be a part of Level One and even more so since I can put an official name with the face of the Secretary in charge...that means I can bug you officially now..." she said with a little giggle...and then she remembered he had mentioned traveling..."
So how bout you...you mentioned that you traveled...was it job related or just for fun...?'
She glanced around her as she realized that she had mentioned the old Minister in public...wasn't that a faux pa....or something like that...she shook her head left and right slightly, "
Yes, I got to work with him as Department Head, but I'm excited to get to work with the new Minister." yes that was diplomatic...right...
