Grunting between sips, Emily shrugged her shoulders lightly. "He's excited enough, and so I've heard," she mused. Gobstones and that boy, who'd have thought it? Of course, that hadn't been the only thing he surprised her with. "He seems to be settling in and adjusting well enough..." in fact, his results have been far better than she had anticipated.

Hesitantly releasing her grasp on the coffee for her quill, Emily quickly scrawled her signature on the bottom of the pages of a document package, clerical boring unimportant documentation... one less thing she needed to worry about. In doing so, she continued to listen as Vic spoke of her children, and Merlin, the girls were three? Already? When had that happened? It occurred to her then that time was passing, and it wasn't taking its time. Great mother of Circe. The news about Bart was good though, pleasing. "How wonderful, I suppose congratulations are in order." It was an achievement after all.

She fell back into silence, putting aside another document in favour of a red folder emblazoned with the MLE crest. Being the good listener that she was, Emily did pay attention, and nodded at the appropriate places, Cossy... oh, right, Cosgrach... the new husband. And then there was that. The matter of the elections. So this was about business, not just coffee. Shame.

.....

She was after ideas? Say what?

"I don't know, you tell me," was her reply. How was she supposed to say otherwise. Frankly she was pleased with Kettleburn, but that wasn't going to happen. "I'm sorry it's just, last I checked, your task was to woo the public, not ask me what I want if you get the position."

Oh that was just wonderful news and Victoria smiled brightly. "I so wish we could get to see some of those Gobstone matches. I'd love to see him play." She loved her sports though so watching wouldn't be an awful task and he was so interested when they had played. "Though I do wish they'd bring back Quidditch. It would make one less issue for me." Trying to keep managers happy with tryouts and not having time to see them play was just a headache. "That's so good that he is doing so well. Bart had said he seemed to be a popular first year." That was about as much as her fifteen year old would tell her about school though.

She was very proud of her son, it felt like all the money she had spent on his camps through the years had finally paid off for him, though the money was well spent just by his enjoyment of the sport too. "He was very excited and very dedicated. I didn't see much of him really, most of his time was at the pitch." Part of growing up she supposed, but it was still sad not to spend a lot of time as a family.

She saw the look, but tried to ignore as she chuckled, "My job is both actually. I have been getting my thoughts and views out there, did you see my article in the Prophet?" She was rather proud of that article, "Plus we've been placing posters up and I have been speaking to the public, but I want to know what I can do to help the departments if elected. I feel our ministry runs very efficiently most of the time as is, so I'm not looking for major changes, so coming in and finding out how I can best serve departments is a way to make a transition, if elected of course, smoother. " Shew as still smiling brightly towards her friend hoping that made sense.

"Plus I'm very interested in your department functions. Your training program, it's along the lines of the idea I have to push ministry wide to get younger employees the experience they need to be successful and possible slow the turn over rate we have." Using MLE as the example in this program would be exceptional.
