SPOILER!!: William

As Harmony was somewhat an expert at sensing vibes, the red head could immediately feel the change of vibes in the room as the topic of discussion shifted in a more serious direction. Not only that but William's aura was now quite muddied red, reflecting some anger. Harmony took this into consideration as she shifted in her seat, expression impassive. She was willing to hear everything that he had to say just as she'd heard the complaining party out at the time. It was only fair and as the dragon enthusiast seemed particularly upset about what had happened, perhaps it was best to give him a safe space to express his feelings without adding too much to the discussion.

"Harassment is a serious allegation and I do hope that this matter can be fixed so that no one experiences any negativity like this in the future." As for the complaining party, Harmony had no qualms about saying who'd voiced concern to her. "Emily Browne was the one who came to me though she was speaking for more than just herself when she expressed displeasure with some of the things you were doing." The red head had not appreciated some of the things that had been said during that meeting but she kept an open mind all the same. "And I made it clear to her at the time that where your personal relationship is concerned, I had and have no desire or right to get involved. I do, however, have a duty to make sure that everyone's rights are being respected in the workplace."

"Can I ask you what you were doing that created this animosity with the other departments? I don't mean to imply that it was mischievous, just that your presence in another department seemed to spark the conversation I had with Emily." Also, she was curious how things were now. "I'm also wondering if there have been any other altercations since we've returned to the ministry."

William just shrugged and ate a few more of the crunchy chips before he needed another sip of tea. Tea was great though, even in a dolphin mug. PLUS the boss liked his pun. Heh. "Feel free to use it," he encouraged her with a small nod. Then they got into the meat of this meeting. Willy had no idea how she was able to remain so calm through this all, when he felt like he was surely sweating through his shirt. Maybe he should have asked for a glass of cold water instead of the tea, so the mug stayed put on the desk. He listened without saying anything, only nodding slowly when Harmony thanked him, at least, for bringing up his issue. However, her reasons for overlooking him were.... ridiculous! RIDICULOUS! He knew exactly who she was talking about, who would have the NERVE to complain about a perfectly innocent tour. Only shifty people showed umbrage when faced by a few harmless questions! REALLY! You don't have to be a detective to figure that one out, folks! But Willy was really working on reining his temper in. Instead of saying anything, he too heard Harmony out, with only narrowed eyes and a somewhat clenched fist resting on the edge of his armchair. "I can collaborate with other departments just fine," Willy spoke up when she was finished. OF COURSE he had comments before she continued. "It just seems that other departments are less than willing to collaborate with me." He tried not to deliver that line too bitterly. "May I ask from whom the........complaints....... came? In all fairness, I probably should have filed a harassment complaint with HR back when it happened..." Because really, that MLE woman had been extremely unprofessional. Oh, and by the way? His motives had been INNOCENT. Harmless. SELFLESS, even. But he would explain, he would. He just wished Harmony had come to him sooner.
