SPOILER!!: Hazel Quote:

She was the only one of them who preferred mornings and being up far too early, but that likely had to do with the years she had spent training in the morning… and it would likely come in handy in the future if they ever decided to have children… but for right now the Welsh woman simply rained on their parade in the morning.
Grinning, she looked at the man and nodded. ”She hates Margaret.” BIG GRIN. She was in for it later, but it would so be worth it… especially when she told Boo that some people at the ministry still called their Mammy, Margaret instead of Mary. Hehehehe. Oh, it would be so worth the glares.
Sighing though, Leza hoped that Mammy wasn’t making the situation worse with the man that seemed to need to inspect one of Lo’s medallions. Was it that important? Really? He’d made them in France and had taken them home… honestly. ”Possibly there are, but does it hurt to have something extra for back-up? Especially when it looks pretty?”
If there was one thing that Hazel didn’t like, it was when her friends and family felt like they had to apologise for just being nice. She had some family members who would stare conflict in the face until neither party won and a full day had been lost, but her brother was nothing of the sort. Biting her tongue and holding anything that she wanted to say that would be scathing, Leza decided that it really wasn’t worth her and Logan getting into trouble on their very first day at the Ministry… heck, they hadn’t even weighed their wands in yet. Geez, Lo what are you like? She shot her brother a small, reassuring smile. I got your back.
She took the medallion that Logan gave to her and carefully threaded it onto the side clasp of her bag. There. Wasn’t that pretty? She grinned at Mammy as he handed her a very specific charm and grinned as her wife pocketed it carefully. I sawww that you two. Hehe.
Ha. Sure, you could entertain the thought of taking one… Hazel thought to herself as she watched the brunette woman looking at the medallion from Logan. Seeee, people just didn’t like to be the first person to have something new…. even when it was something awesome and cool. Her eyes slanted slightly - did she need to be rude? Logan didn’t mean anything by it. Hmph. Pride for her brother curled around her tongue, but she simply tightened her grip on Mammy’s hand a little and said nothing. Sorry pumpkin - you’ll get your hand back in a minute… but not yet.
Frowning slightly, Hazel wondered what the man meant about stopping Mammy practising her charms on Logan… Did he think that Logan’s brain was fried? That wasn’t very nice. Urgh. People. She hadn’t had enough coffee for this yet. Resting her head on Mammy’s shoulder, she sighed slightly. ”I need coffee.” She said quietly to Mammy. So much coffee.
Ha. No offense given to you - but offense was taken for Logan and his skills. Regardless of what anyone else said, Hazel was offended. Darn, love sucked at times…. and didn’t she know it. Heh.
Standing up straight again, she looked at the man (Simon) and nodded past him at the lines for weighing their wands. ”Can we go and weigh our wands now, so that we can go through to orientation?” AKA, I need to get coffee and leave this group before I say something stupid while trying to stand up for my brother who is perfectly able to do that himself. Sigh. She smiled at Logan and Mammy and moved forward towards weighing their wands when Simon said that they could go.
Simon gave a weak shrug. He supposed it could work with other measures if one so desired. To each his own. For him, he had his own ways of keeping safe and aware of any dangers that might develop along the line in his life. And he wasn't trying to give a hard time, at least too much, but they could believe all they want about his intentions and what he had already done to look over the medalions.
And back to the purpose of being here in the atrium and security area. Simon glanced to see if the wand weighers was free and happened to notice a lull as his subordinates were finishing up their own charges complete with helping out the lone Level 1 worker. "Yes...actually," the security man answered, leading them over to the table and himself back to work. "One at a time can I have your wands," he instructed the trio, holding out a hand and letting whoever wanted to go first to take it up with their companions.

Joining the line, she adjusted her skirt. Of course she was looking as flawless as ever - there was no way she would turn up for work looking like a slob; that was something Lucia was more likely to do. Sighing, she tapped her foot against the floor.
Come on, people. She didn't have all day here.
Simon noticed the visible impatience of the next woman on the line but he didn't draw attention to it. He wasn't going to rush doing his job just because someone had no patience in the matter. It was an important task to ensure safety and lack of trouble and the employee, likely new, was going to have to get used to it. Thankfully on a normal day the flux wasn't quite as weighed down. No pun intended.
"Next..." he said, motioning her up to the station. "Hello," Simon greeted to be polite. "Name please," he instructed first so one of the others could find her badge and welcome packet. "I will also need your wand."
