"This place smells like fish" was her first comment as she entered and after a quick look around she spotted big boss man and another employee. "Morning" she greeted with a nod of her head. She did not flash a smile at them because she was not in the mood of smiling today. "Do we sit wherever we want or do we have assigned seats?"
Cale frowned. He felt like he needed to make a big banner that said "YES. IT SMELLS LIKE FISH. WE KNOW." Ugh, no appreciation around here at all for his awesome scouting skills!

"I know it's not ideal, but it's far from Muggles and with apparition testing, we need that," he pointed out. He wasn't about to let that just crumble because they couldn't get into the Ministry and the Floos were having a temper tantrum.

This was a non-huzzah everything.

Haley didn't look how she felt, not at all. Actually, she probably looked chirpier than one should have when faced with the rejection of a work place, and then the smell that reminded her of going fishing with her father when she was younger. Fishy and non-huzzah worthy. She couldn't even say the word and pretend things were all good.

Feeling like she should roll with it, she pinned her hair up as she headed into their work areas with a smile. "I'd have gotten a gift, but I'm not sure anywhere sells cards to do with the Ministry hating you." And she hadn't been a fan of 'new home' cards.
"Perhaps an evergreen tree?" Cale said with a grin, hinting at the smelly smell that floated around the air in here. "A bit out of season, but it would smell real nice on your desk," he added with a chuckle.

And yes. The Ministry DID hate them for some reason. WHY? Cale didn't know. He hated not knowing.

She hardly doubted it.

Ignoring everyone at first, she went over to one of the desks that was near a wall that had a pretty outdoor scenery on it. Merlin, she really needed a WINDOW -- someone needed to open up a window in here to get rid of this awful smell. "Can we please somehow get a window in here? To get rid of this smell?"

... or else she was probably going to go work outside. If they needed her, they could easily come and get her.

"We have windows,"
Cale pointed out. BIG WINDOWS. He didn't really know if they opened though. Normally he'd be sassy right back to Reese, but he knew she was pregnant and probably not enjoying the fish smell ONE BIT. Cale could handle it, but a pregnant lady? Probably not.

"It's January. If you want to set up a muggle fan at your desk, you can, " he said, reminding her that opening a window would likely result in an arctic tundra in the workplace. Not cool.

Seriously it looked as though he was dosed with a shot of pure happiness…or well almost Cheshire cat-like…or like a rather happy Alex DeLarge.

“I wonder if Pirates ever used this boatyard?” She thought aloud and tried to ignore the oblivious smiling man. It was a hard thing to do…avoid asking someone who looked like a porcelain doll with their forced happiness.

“Hello Mr. Newell” she smiled to her boss as she placed a small plant on her desk. Yep. Too bad it wasn’t real. “Hello Vickers” she waved to her coworker that she still hardly had talked to. "I'm glad we are somewhere above ground - I heard Law Enforcement is in an abandoned underground line - I know i'd have a hard time getting round in here."
"Ah, hello Kyle!" Cale said with a smile. FINALLY someone cheerful and ready to work even though it smelled in here! "It's the perfect place for us to test out brooms and apparition too without being noticed by prying eyes," he added. Yeah, he was TOTALLY proud of himself for that one. It was serious business, keeping muggles away.

"Speaking of other departments, I was told we will probably get some calls about going and creating anti-apparition spells in a lot of the alternative locations. Like the asylum," he said. Yes, did they know some employees worked in an INSANE ASYLUM right now?

It made their boatyard smell like roses when compared to that, in Cale's opinion.
