He would go into the situation now however he was unsure how many of his colleagues knew about his nature or how those who did not know would react Ella gave the man a smile. "I can only imagine." Of all the times she had been to St. Mungo's, she never had to stay long, thankfully. Ah, just what she was looking for. "That would be wonderful, actually." Ella was quite intrigued by his story and lengthy absence. "After the party," she repeated with a nod. Excellent. "So, how long have you been a part of the British Ministry of Magic?" She just wanted to get a good feel for all her co-workers. Quote:

I don't believe we met either. Once again I'm Thomas Jones." He said offering another hand to him now. "Also I have something that our department could work on, so could I go to your office after this party as well to tell you? Obviously after him though, since he did ask first." he said to his department head. Thomas Jones, junior Dragon researcher. Ella grinned. Dragons were her favorite. "A pleasure to meet you, Thomas." After the two men greeted each other and Thomas turned his attention back to her, Ella gave him a nod. "I'm certainly interested in what you have to say." She checked her watch briefly. "How about tomorrow morning? Seven o'clock?" That way they weren't at the Ministry too late that night. Quote:

She preferred to cook meals for her family herself, including lunches for work, to be sure that everyone was getting the proper nutrition that they needed. That was what mothers did, after all.
On this particular day, she had not been drawn to the food court on a whim or by hunger pains, she was there for one sole reason, the new Department Head. Being the Director of Beasts, she thought it was her place to work closely with the one who was in charge, which meant that they needed to be introduced properly.
She found the woman easily, for she was the only one surrounded by other employees. With respect for the other's conversations, she waited for her turn before she introduced herself. "You must be the new Department Head." Serafina smiled politely and even quite friendly, "I am Serafina De Luca." She held her hand out for a proper greeting, "Pleasure to meet you."
Or at least, she hoped so. So far the woman did not seem to be an ogre, but looks can be deceiving. And finally, a woman. Ella was pleased to see that she would be working with at least another woman in the department. And she certainly hoped there were more coming... Ella smiled at Serafina, remembering her from looking through the personal record files. "Ah, yes. Director of Beasts." Ella took the woman's hand and shook it. "A pleasure to meet you as well. Have you been in this department long?" Just out of curiosity.

Well, Ella certainly hoped that there were more than three people coming to her party, but she was hungry and hopefully the other employees were, too. In a break between conversations, Ella spoke up to those around her. "Thank you all for coming! I hope we can all chat some more so I can get a feel for what's going on around her and get to know you all better. If you have any questions about me, work, or anything, feel free to ask! Oh, and eat! I bought lots of food!" Ella pointed to all the food and the plates that were in the center of the grouped tables, which consisted of potatoes, bowls of dragon's breath stew, fettuccine alfredo, chocolate chip cookies, fudgy chunk brownies, and copious amounts of hot chocolate and coffee bevearages. Ella herself took a seat at one of the tables and grabbed a plate of fettuccine because it looked absolutely divine and she hadn't eaten in hours. |
