Queen of Typos | The OTHER OTHER Roro | WICKED is Good

Needless to say that the blond has been looking forwards to this day for a long time. It has been close to seven months as an unemployed. And starting the new year with a job was a great start. And the Ministry, too. She had experience with another ministry but she was more excited and optimistic about this one. Because here it felt at home.

Lara didn't get long to get ready and be on her way. She made sure she was well-dressed but not too much. She wanted to give a good impression but also not flaunt it.

As she got to the entrance, the twenty-four year slowed down and tossed a strand of hair over her shoulder. Her attention was completely on the people who were lingering there. Was that a motorcycle? That earned an eyebrow raise. But moving on. Maybe she'd find someone she knew? It's been a long time since she spent a long time in the London but who knew. And meeting new people was always cool. Lara had no problem with that.

This would certainly be an interesting event. There weren’t any giant bears to act as a distraction this time either. Just socialization with people relatively her age.
And speaking of meeting new people. Lara casually started inching closer towards the closest person where she stood. Another woman who looked close to Lara's age. Although she wasn't that good a judge when it came to people's ages but it hardly mattered.

"Excuse me," She cleared her throat once she was close enough to be heard. "I'm new here." She paused wondering if that was a good thing to reveal. But it wasn't like they were at school or something. "Are you a returning employee?" So that I could stick with you to know the ins and outs and what needs to be done. But the girl was trying to be less straight forward than she usually is. And it wasn't that Lara was an opportunist but she knew how to handle things to her benefit.
