SPOILER!!: Emily
She didn't particularly care for personal details, just explanation enough for her departure and return... which she got. "Of course, I can respect that," Emily assured her with a curt nod. "The reason that I asked was simply to ascertain your values and whether a departure might be on the cards in the near future should I take you back on board..." because dismissing and hiring was a process she would have been happy to forego.
"I think we'll get along just fine, Ms. Henderson," she mused. There was much to separate the two, but at least they shared a similar level of understanding where a person's capabilities were concerned. "Ludovicus Bones is our Director of Prosecutions now, I'm sure he'll make you feel at home, just do him a favour and don't call him Ludovicus, he hates that." She was done with interviewing, she got what she needed to know... there was only one matter left to address. "Since your last employment here, the Department has experienced a pay cut across the board, inflated wages are hardly conducive of the proper management of Departmental funding, as I'm sure you can understand. Should you accept your new terms of employment, you're welcome to start this week."
Emily pulled a sheet of parchment from her out-tray and slid it across the mahogany desk with her self inking quill, toward the Prosecutor.
"Just sign down the bottom..."
Laurie listened to her brand new boss speak and nodded. Taking the quill she read over the document and signed at the bottom as indicated. "Well...in the end something is better than nothing right?" she said with a slight laugh. Though she didn't really need the pay.
She placed the quill down on the desk and held her hand out to Emily with a smile, "Thank you for the meeting and I look forward to working with you."
