 Puff by day, snake by night | Mj's bestie | Always UP to Something...
Victoria sat half paying attention to what was going on, she just wanted a break away from everyone. Pushing her hair back a bit away from her face. She looked up as Ryan gave his opinion. Well that wasn’t what she really meant but he got the idea. She gave him a small smile in appreciation of his opinion. It was one way to look at things.
Then the new girl spoke finally. Merlin was she young. Did she just reference Hogwarts? Why was the ministry always hiring right out of school. There was no experience at all with that, especially in the professional quidditch world. She wanted to shake her head a bit at the girl assuming everyone in the room knew about Hogwarts spells. Most of them did go there as children even if it had been a few more years for some, but Victoria was never one to be rude so she just sat listening. She was at least giving ideas as well. “That could work if we needed to use something.”
Turning her head back to Mariel she listened to her boss, but it was only for a second. Wasn’t it just a month or so ago they were joking and talking about the ministry not doing their job? Now it seemed she had a different tone in her voice. Exactly what Victoria assumed really. She looked to the floor for awhile wishing more than ever to be out of the meeting. Enough man power, really they didn’t have their own building to deal with they couldn’t send a few to the hanger to help do something cleaning? Victoria bet any money the ministers temporary office didn’t look like this. She really tried to push the negative thoughts away, but in her state of mind it was hard.
Her brown eyes looked up questioning, “Slim? Mariel we are dead in the middle of the muggles. I think the chances are greater right now.” She wasn’t trying to be argumentative, but don’t be taking the guard down about muggles just yet. Another questioning look came across her face as her boss said it was a perfect segue, perfect to what? A training, about muggles. Merlin did they think they would start a world war or something. This was just beyond ridiculous in the blondes eyes. Why didn’t they just form a work from home program until the ministry was open again. She could have done her job easily enough from home.
Mandatory of course, the blonde slouched further. It was really hard to hear orders coming from her friend which only made the situation at hand even more awkward. So many conflicting emotions went through her. She crossed her arms tighter and just wished the meeting over. Questions? Yes are we done now?
