 Dani's Citrus Duck Spawn | Mama Giraffe | Lemon PATch | Pushed the Red Button
She, of course, had been the FIRST ONE THERE. It was very evident in Lucia's demeanor how excited she was about today, clear from her nose to her high-heeled toes. The old lady had even charmed her pantsuit to look like there were dragon scales adorning it in honor of today.
What? She didn't plan to work with the dragons- Gringotts' manager was wearing what she wanted.
Beside Colin and the group of Ministry officials, Lucia took her place and watched the young ones interact for a while. And after she'd thought the last one had slipped in (one of the two who'd had QUITE fishy recommendations. She was keeping an eye on that geezer), she clapped her hands.
"Hello, everyone!" Could they hear her? This didn't require a Sonorus, yes? "My name is Lucia Clark, and I'm the manager of Gringotts' Wizarding Bank. We have two dragons living in this lair- Bunny, the older one, is a Chinese Fireball and Hebridean Black hybrid. She has begun to act as a mother to the newest addition to Gringotts' array of creatures, little Bandit. He's a cross between a Chinese Fireball and a Ukrainian Ironbelly, and he'll be turning two this January." So he was juuust on the verge of becoming fully mature, though not quite there yet. More in the adolescent stage, really. But he was still their baby.
Glancing at the two men beside the Department Head, she continued. "You'll be working with these dragons today. We'll be splitting you into groups, the younger students being paired with Bandit while the older and more advanced students handle Bunny. Here to supervise and lead the activities from the Department of Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures are William Williamson, senior dragon researcher, and Tancred Adara, dragon commissioner. We also have the pleasure of having their Department Head with us, Miss Harmony Skylark." WHEW. Whole lot of talking going on here. Where was the water?
"And this is Colin Roderick, Assistant Manager of Gringotts. He'll be doing his best to get you lot eaten, I'm sure, so please keep on your toes around him." Hehe. Say hi, Colin. "I hope you find our seminar to be useful in your studies and enjoy yourselves today!"
AND that was all. So Ministry Thing 1 and Ministry Thing 2 could have their turn to blabber now. Take it away, boys.
