It was looking up, so far.
Now, where to start?? She decided it would be best to go around and meet some new people first, before doing anything else. She didn't like looking as I'd she was alone, which didn't really help you. She had figured out what that did to her. One clue: it didn't help!!
Hmm, who should she start with?? Although this type of approach didn't work on her, nor had anyone ever made an attempt to do so, he did it for others. After all, it WAS the easiest and most polite way to go up to someone new!!
As far as she knew.
Approaching a woman who looked a little alone, she said cheerfully, extending her hand,
"Hello! I'm Giacinta, but you can call me Gia." There. It was that easy! Hopefully, this would turn out as well as planned. She wasn't planning on being a loner here! Not now, not ever.
. Hopefully this person was forgiving? !
Since she was speaking with Gavin too, Beijing decided to give the next person who entered the circle a hello. "Hi, Im Beijing". She had had enough handshakes for the moment. She knew that nobody wasn't any more germy then she was, but Beijing had shaken so many hand that she wanted to wash them.
"New to the ministry?"

"Yes, of course I am." He said dismissively. His hand was perfectly fine afterall, he was simply stating that she had a firm grip. He'd certainly had hand shakes that went worse than the one he just shared with this woman. It was only after he had spoken that he realized his tone wasn't the friendliest. "I really am fine though." He tried in a much nicer tone.
"But thanks for the concern." He was even being genuine now. He nodded when she proved him wrong. "Ah so then...it's simply a new position." And here he thought he wasn't so alone with this new thing. [b]"Well it's like I said, my hand is just fine so we won't need to be getting any ice.
There was a moments silence as he thought of something else to say. "So what job position did you occupy before transferring to the Minister's office?" You could never go wrong with polite conversation.
This meant that it was time for a different approach. Even though he really didn't want to be the one going around and approaching people it seemed this one needed more help with her social skills than him consequently he would make the exception.
"Hello." Clearly he was going to have to be the one to strike the conversation. "The name's Gavin, Gavin Isaacs, and you are?" Then he threw in a smile; all about the friendliness afterall.
"I used to work for accidents and catastrophies. As the spell reversal agent" she replied. The small talk was beginning to bore her, but she stook it out because she had to. Beijing would much rather be doing something more hands on, so to speak. Moving on. "so are you a new employee". She could not recall seeing his face previousley at the miniatry, but maybe that was just because she stayed up in level three all day. She did want to meet some people from other departments after all.
