"I'm the personal assistant." she added. He'd probably like to know, yeah?

They were sharing cookies? What cookies? WHERE? Ronnie wanted some. If she was like a dog or something right now, her ears would be PERKED UP and her tail would be wagging like MAD.... But since she was no dog, she just raised her eyebrows and looked around for the cookies he spoke of. Smiling when she saw them and when he asked if she wanted some, she nodded and took one, taking a seat in the chair next to Jazz. "Oh thank you!" she said before taking a bite. Her eyes widened slightly. "These are delicious! Your mum is a brilliant cook." she said.
His very own personal assistant? Oh, that would make things a LOT simpler. Because Merlin knows, Bryce passed his own messy nature off as 'organisation' and left it at that. She'd would probably be able to keep him in check. "Nice to meet you, Ronnie." Not gingeraffe or redhead. "The name's Bryce Howell." And unfortunately, he didn't have many nicknames. Unless you counted B.O.

Hello primary school/Hogwarts flashbacks.

It was funny the effect food can have on people. Bryce was amused by the raised eyebrow look and the smile when she did see the cookies. And thank you for sitting down; it made him feel less tired seeing other people sitting down as well. "You're welcome! You two are lucky that I'm in a sharing mood." Joking. He was joking. And apparently, she liked the cookies, too? Bonus! "Merlin, she's going to think that she has her own fan club now," he said, looking between the two ladies with a very amused expression spread across his face, "Thank you. I'll be sure to let her know."

He wanted to prove himself to his sisters right? Well that is what Jazz thought. "Ahhh well you see I am the only child in my family. But my mom doesn't approve of my magical studies. She wants nothing to do with me." she shrugged. It was not a touchy subject to her. She told the truth like it was. She smiled back when he said he would pass the message on. She was imaging it and it seemed all too good. "I think personally I would become very fat. I would just keep eating. I mean maybe you might have more self control than I would.." she grinned joking slightly with the boss. Ah she was a pianist that was pretty cool. Very fancy. "Are you from a rich family?" she asked curiously.

Oh now her life? Hmm well she already told him about her mother. "Erm I am..." she trailed off when she noticed Ronnie knocking on the door. She smiled when she saw her friend coming in the room. It is a party in here now! "Hello Ronnie!" she greeted her fellow employee. "Fancy meeting you here of all places.." she joked a little bit. "But onto your question Bryce...if I am allowed to call you that. I am settling in just fine. It is still all new to me. I am like seeing all the new people like Alex and Ronnie.." she smiled.
The only child in her family? "You must have had a lot of freedom growing up," he commented, picking up another cookie and munching on it while the woman talked about her family. Er. Had he hit a nerve? A weak spot? Something the woman didn't particularly enjoy talking about? "Why doesn't she approve of it? Surely, she should be proud that you're working in the Ministry now." He didn't understand this concept from parents. Thank Merlin that they were not talking about something lighter. A jokey matter. Bryce let out a small chuckle before saying, "Come off it, that would be nothing compared to those baked goods. Pastries, especially. They're hard to resist." And there went his weakness. Was he from a rich family? "I wouldn't say rich, I'd say that we manage. No mansions for me. I'd get lost in one."

It turned out that the two ladies did know each other. Well, wouldn't you know. Bryce munched on his cookies and watched the two out of vague interest. Did they get along? Good. He had no time to be breaking up silly playground fights. When Jasmine spoke next, his hazel eyes landed on her again. "You're allowed to call me whatever you want," Nothing rude, mind you. "Very glad to hear that. I was hoping it'd be a department people can fit into. How long have you been working here?"
