Still, it was fun to do while she filed paperwork and stacked books and magazines and delivered memos...busy work made the day go by fast, and Addi really did LOVE it!

She hardly had visitors, though, and today she had TWO. TWO!

The first woman asked for Emmalee...which stumped Addison for a second until she remembered that Miss Howell was the head in the Environment department. DUH! Even though Addi manned the front desk, she was technically a Magical Creatures employee and had to remember that Environment was also on the level. Smiling at the woman, Addi stepped behind the desk and gestured towards the hall dedicated to the Environmental offices. "You'll find her office down this hall, on the left side right before you reach the greenhouses. It's clearly marked...she will be waiting for you in there. Let me know if you need help," she told her with a smile, but it wasn't hard to find things here on the level - hopefully Howell would actually BE there, because...well, Addi didn't know her schedule and if she WASN'T there, it would be HER fault, because it was ALWAYS the receptionist's fault, right? The only downside to this job, really...

Alright, next one...OH. HELLO HANDSOME MAN.

Addi recognized this one - he was the GOOD LOOKING one in the Creatures department. She knew his name was...well, something that began with the same letters, and he was obviously much older than her and probably married or something. But that didn't mean Addi couldn't ADMIRE him, right? She was JUST about to turn twenty anyways, not at all ready to even begin thinking about love and all that...but MMMM. EYE CANDY.

"Um, hi, can I help you?" she asked with a smile. Or was he just stopping by to chat? It honestly made her a bit sad that some of her coworkers seemed so ANTISOCIAL.

Ooh, the new receptionist was a whistler! This was a good sign, she might even be helpful. She'd seemed to direct the girl ahead of him correctly, so William figured why not chat. Why not.

"Hi, I'm William Williamson. I'm not looking for anything in particular, I just noticed you were new? Are new?" He tried to look for a nameplate, and settled for just offering his hand across the the counter. "Are you in Magical Creatures, officially, then?"

What was he doing, making conversation with young receptionists? Merlin, he had been away from this place for too long.
