Now they had to introduce themselves?

Wasn't that the boss' job?

Why did the blond guy - Bradley - mention he had a sister? At least the other dude had an excuse. Did they just casually talk about family members in this department? Were they really so desperate that they felt the need to bring up siblings while they were waiting in the queue to get some coffee or something?

She hesitated for a moment, not wanting to stand up at the same time as someone else because that'd be awkward at it's very best. And thank Merlin she did because that Jade person stood up just as she was about to.

Bless Merlin she'd had the wits to wait.

When the other woman was finished Sephy rose, choosing to ignore the chair scraping the floor which made a dreadful sound like nails on a blackboard. "I'm Persephone... Walters. I'm a potion identification and recovery specialist. And um... yeah." She very nearly mentioned her hedgehog but that'd just make her seem weird. Who talked about their pets at a conference?

Probably the same people who talked about their sister but Sephy was going to keep that particular conversation topic in her back pocket for when she wanted coffee.
