Lynley wasn't stupid though; surely she wouldn't make poor decisions when it came to employees. The fact that she had just received a promotion was proof of this.

A young woman who looked to be straight out of Hogwarts was standing in the middle of nowhere and looking completely lost. "Can I help you?" Seemed that she was new to the department unless she was waiting for someone but why would she be doing that first thing in the morning?

Chloe smelled someone coming before she saw them; because of the smell of coffee in their hand. She wasn't necessarily opposed to coffee, but she hadn't really had the desire to try it yet either. Or the need. Though if she was required to show up for work any earlier than this, then surely coffee might become a necessity.

But enough thoughts on coffee, the woman was talking to her. She was blond and definitely older than her, but not old. Maybe her mother's age. Maybe not. Her mother, though, was on the young side when she had her, which meant she just turned forty last Summer. Chloe couldn't even begin to fathom that; turning forty and oldest child graduating school all one Summer.

Shaking her head to clear her thoughts mostly, Chloe forced a smile. "Yes, sorry, I'm looking for Lyn.... a Ms Purcell. She's hired me recently, but never really told me where to go on my first day. Just to show up at the Ministry at this time." Chloe purposefully left out where she was hired for, because this woman, well, who knew if she could be trusted? Unless she WAS Lynley?
