Introductions were still happening, hey! William had picked a good time to join this group. Of course his ears started turning red as soon as January complimented him, but he looked down at his shoes with a soft, "Thanks." She looked nice too, even with that hair... thang going on. He looked back up. "No costume for me, naaaaah." Willy shook his head cheerfully. "This IS my costume, see. I'm dressed as a very boring Ministry of Magic Employee." Like someone who worked in the Minister's Office.... hehehehehehh. "Who are YOU supposed to be, huh? A medieval woman on a bad hair day?"

He tilted his head at her and her date, who was OBVIOUSLY a knight. A kind of intimidating knight, actually. He'd meet him in a second. "William Williamson," Willy supplied to the pretty lady with the dude who wasn't Vic. Oh, Simon was his name. Yes, Simon. "Nice to meet you both," he smiled at them. He WOULD offer them a hand, but... plate. Food. Couldn't drop that. And besides, Aly was here now aww. "Glad you found me." He slung an arm around her and now he really couldn't shake hands. Thank you, girlfriend.

"I hope she didn't tell you my LIGHTEST secrets too," Willy sort of chuckled at Vic, though his eyes drifted over to January after a moment. "Good to meet you though. I hope we'll get to talk some later." Since he was going off to get some food? Were they all gonna eat? "You can have some of my plate," William mentioned to Alysson, as an aside. "I brought two forks." He'd picked up two by accident but one never knew when one might need a spare fork!

"It's lovely to meet you too," she said pleasantly to Simon's date, Angelina. Had she said that already to her? Boy, there were a lot of people here in this group now, she couldn't remember. Oh well.

January saw William's ears turn red. Heh. It was funny when that happened. Oh, see he WAS dressed up as a boring Ministry of Magic worker. "Well then, not much different than your normal wear, eh?" She teased. Heheh. At his question, Jan looked down at her own attire, her hair flopping around her head. She pushed it out of the way and looked back at William. "Yes, something like that. Sir Vic's fair maiden, perhaps." And excuuuuse her, her hair was LOVELY.

What she was REALLY looking forward to was that William and Vic were finally getting to meet. With work schedules and whatnot, she hadn't had a chance to introduce her boyfriend to her best friend. But now she could! And look, they were teasing right off the bat. HOW PERFECT. "Oh, don't worry. Only the big, bad ones." January was trying not to grin too much, but it was hard when her two favorite people in the world seemed to get along. Even if they had only known each other for about ten seconds. Yes, yes, they had to talk later. She wanted them to.

When Vic offered to get her something from the table, she just shook her head. "Water is fine for me." She was afraid her hair would get in her food. She had too much hair at the moment.

January was about to scoot closer to William now, with Vic gone for the moment, but suddenly slid in his girlfriend. Op. Hello. January hadn't seen Alysson in a long time. She was beginning to wonder if meeting her three years ago was even real. "Hello, Alysson," she greeted with a smile. "It's nice to see you again." She looked very pretty there, standing next to William. They made a nice looking couple.

"Hello," she greeted the new woman - Alyson. Oh, they were all a bunch of close friends, weren't they? How sweet! But it seemed that Simon and she were the odd ones there. Hmm. Even though it wasn't really her place...

"Excuse us," she shyly but politely said, "we should go check out the buffet." Meaning, leave them alone, since they were friends.

C'mon, boyfriend. Let's go.

It works both ways? Vic arched an eyebrow at Simon, his grin not leaving his face, and smacked the young man on the shoulder all manly-like. "Don't steal my joke, kid." Heh heh.

Back to January's friend whom she didn't share awkward history with. Yet. Should Vic be concerned about that, by the way? Probably nawt. A boring Ministry employee fit his look, though, Vic chuckled at that classic comment and put an arm arooooound January's hair shoulders and answered for her, "She's the beautiful archer that fell for the hot Knight after she was assigned to assassin him." Vic feigned a serious smile.

Lightest secrets, that was funny. Vic laughed. "I shall hope we will." Talk, since he was just going off for a few minutes to fill a plate or three and get right back.

Water was fine for Jan? WATER? "Fish is fine with water." He joked, giving her shoulder a squeeze, the one he had his arm around still, and took a step back. "I'll be right back."



Wait, what. The hit witch was William's date? Vic smiled broadly at the coworker he never interacted with outside work. "Hey hey!"



... aww, the kids were leaving. Vic gave them a Knight-y courtesy before leaving himself to get food for himself.

Hello. Yes she was here.

There was an arm around her shoulders now. Alysson liked it. A lot. "It wasn't too hard. The buffet was the first place I looked." She offered him a grin while leaning against his side some more. And January was there too. "So nice to see you again too." She hadn't seen her since...well, a while back. Of course she'd occasionally caught a glimpse of her around the Ministry but they'd never really spoken. They should remedy that some time.

Simon was talking now though so Alysson looked to her co-worker instead. His girlfriend, wow. "Lovely to meet you, Angelina." Alysson smiled at the other woman, giving her a once over. "I like your dress." It was very...festive. They'd clearly dressed up. Because her costume matched Simon's. How sweet. Did she work at the Ministry too? Before Alysson got the chance to ask, however, the woman announced that they were leaving to check out the buffet.

Alright then.

Vic seemed to be leaving them too it seemed but he had found the time to greet her. "Good to see you." Yes. Not that she knew him very well. Or at all to be honest. He was one of those people she worked with but had never gotten a chance to actually get to know. It was unfortunate really. Maybe this even would bring them all closer together.

Everyone seemed to be talking about food. Which was hardly surprising, seeing as they were right next to the buffet. Alysson glanced at it over her shoulder briefly, only to look back up at William a second later, a smile on her lips. "You did?" Did he actually think of her while filling his plate?

Or had he accidentally got a second fork instead of a knife?


WIlliam Williamson...interesting name. The last member of their party was now clearly identified. And pleasantries had been shared all around if Simon was not mistaken. The auror met Vic's gaze head on as the prosecutor responded to his quip, the young man biting back a chuckle at the smack he received for his words. So this was how good ministry parties were supposed to work? The mood far better than the start of last year.

"Wouldn't dream of it," he returned, knowing he had meerly been testing the man's buttons before. What was a little good-natured banter between coworkers?

He took the hint that Angelina was sending...the desire to leave the rest alone and head off for some dinner. Fine by him, no point in asking twice. Besides, it seemed like the other two couples were intertwined without them making him and Angelina the extra wheels. "Excuse us..." SImon echoed giving a small bow before moving and leading the two of them away from the elder witches and wizards.

Once they were closer to the buffet, he retrieved two plates, offering one to his companion. "Alas...alone," he mused with a smile., absently looking over the offerings.
