"It's very nice to meet you Esper!" She said smiling. Ah work was going to be great! She could just feel it in the air. Though she was sad to leave Witch Weekly, she had moved on to bigger and better things. And this would be just the beginning. Hopefully she could even use this job as a pushing off point! Oooh! The thoughts just made her even MORE EXCITED for the next few months.
SPOILER!!: Lawrence! *squishes youu

He had absolutely no sense of fashion, so after asking his sister for help and getting some advice on what to wear this day, Lawrence walked through the lobby and stopped outside the conference room. He checked his watch, making sure that he was not late. Nah, Mr. Isaacs should not be here yet. Walking inside, Lawrence took less than a few strides before stopping again. Two people he did not know. "Who are you?" he asked, looking around to check that this was indeed his level. Oh well then they must be new employees here. "I'm Lawrence Lee." Since the two women were about to shake hands he headed to the meeting table in the middle and sat down.
Just as Tiffany started introductions with the only other woman in the room, she heard the door opening. OOOOH GOODY! ANOTHER ARRIVAL! She could feel her heart doing that boom-ba-doom-boom thing. Maybe this is Mr. Gavin Isaacs? AKA the new boss! Her excitement could not be contained because SO HAPPY TO BE HERE, duh.
Who are you. UHUM, excuse moi? RUDE. The real question is, 'Who are
YOU', but she'd keep this to herself for the time being... Because if this man was her boss, then she'd need to make a good first impression. Yep. They hadn't technically met in person... Even though he had probably read through her application. Either way she'd control herself. But just then the man corrected himself with an introduction. Good. That's more like it. Lawrence Lee? Oh. So he wasn't Mr. Gavin Isaacs or Mr. Gavin or Mr. Isaacs or what would be the best way to address your new boss? Uhum...
Uhuuum anyways. Tiffany momentarily took her attention off of the woman she was introducing herself to, in order to turn to this other man.
"Hey! Ahem, I mean, Hello, I'm Tiffany Price," Oops. Need to be professional. This isn't a real party after all... MHM. Totally professional.
SPOILER!!: Ainsley & AH FOOD

Her arms were loaded with sweet treats, and she juggled them, trying not to drop anything. She most likely could have made it easier on herself with the use of a little magic, but this way was just fine by her for the moment.
As she made her way in, she beamed at the three people that were already there. Making her way over to the table, she set down an assortment of homemade goodies. There was cauldron cakes, cookies, brownies, and fudge in almost every flavor imaginable.
Now with her free arms she turned to her coworkers. "Hello there. I am Ainsley Scarsdale, and it is a pleasure to meet you." See said to everybody as she made her way to each individual person. The blonde held at her hand, and waited for everybody to take it. "Please help yourselves to some treats that I made from the heart." She hoped they would try them, and even more that they would all like them. She spent hours perfecting everything.
OOOH ANOTHER ARRIVAL! Tiffany was SUPER thankful for that. Two was definitely not a party and neither was three. But four? They could totally make that work... AND FOOD!? Okay, they could DEFINITELY make this work. She quickly ran up to the new woman who had introduced herself as Ainsley and gave her a huge smile.
"I'm Tiffany Price, it's SO nice to meet you!" she said giggling.
Oh, from the heart? That's SO sweet. Except... They all looked like sweets. Uh oh. The brunette didn't want to be rude, but she also didn't want extra calories. She had A WHOLE OMELET this morning!? But alas... she didn't want this woman to think that she was rejecting her baking. And first impressions. Sigh. Tiffany walked over to the table where everything had been set down. What was the smallest thing she could take? Goodness. Couldn't people bring some celery to parties or something? Hm. She'd have to bring a vegetable tray next time.
Deciding on the cookies, she grabbed a small one off the plate.
"This is so sweet of you," she told the woman with a smile.
"Everything looks so delicious," and unhealthy. But shhh, she wouldn't say a word about that. Instead she took a bite of her cookie. A whole omelet and now a cookie!? Boy, was she really letting herself go. Tiffany made a mental note to remember to go out for an extra long jog tonight. Her usual 8 Kilometers weren't going to cut it after eating cookies.
"I'm so excited to start this new job!" she revealed in between bites.
Small talk small talk doing some small talk.
SPOILER!!: Mr. Boss eeeep!

A glance at his clock told him he was making good on time but he wouldn't push it, so after reorganizing the parchments set on his desk Gavin headed over to the Conference Room. By the looks of it his newest employees had already arrived. Punctuality, something he could greatly appreciate in his emlpoyees. Already making good impressions look at that.
Now came the hard part; actually socializing. That would involve him walking around and doing greetings if he remembered correctly. Deciding he'd better get it over with, the man put on a smile, hoping not to look as uncomfortable as he felt. People were never his thing. "Mr. Lee, Ms. Scarsdale, glad to have you both back with us. Good holiday, I hope?" His had been nice enough, he wouldn't deny that.
"Did you bake those yourself?" He asked, gesturing to the treats the woman had with her.
He looked to the women on the other side of the room from him. "Ms. Price, Ms. Jordan, let me officially welcome you to the Minister's Office. I'm Gavin Isaacs." A smile for them too but he wouldn't explain further. Surely they'd done their homework and knew his title. Who showed up to work without knowing who they were working for, right?
Tiffany looked over and noticed YET ANOTHER ARRIVAL! AH! This is SO exciting. HMM, maybe THIS man was the Mr. Isaacs guy? AH. Tiffany sure hoped so because she was starting to grow anxious and all that. What if her boss was a real jerk!? Who didn't show up to his own party?! That'd be such a let down. The woman curiously watched as the man walked into the room and quickly made his way over to the later two arrivals. Ah, so he definitely wasn't new. So yes? Mr. Isaacs?
AH! And before she could even think about the matter any further, the man came over to introduce himself! EEEP! So it is HIM!? Tiffany suddenly felt herself getting a little nervous. Woah. This never happened. Well... not when socializing anyways. But this was her new boss! If she said the wrong thing, he could make her life a living nightmare! At least, the work part of her life. She few deep breath like she learned in yoga, before speaking.
"Hello Mr. Isaacs," she calmly responded with a grin. WHOOOOPY! This is captain Tiffany speaking, and it's all smooth sailing from here.
"It's so good to finally meet you." SO GOOD. BEYOND GOOD. JUST REALLY GOOD OKAY?
"I'm very excited to finally start working in this department," she couldn't stop smiling. She probably looked like such an idiot. But hopefully not an unprofessional idiot! AH.
"I've heard a lot of great things about the staff here at the ministry," Yep. Especially with all that wonky stuff that had happened. They all got back on their feet and it's back in session AND THIS IS GOING TO BE AN AMAZING MONTH!
