Delphine had heard the first person to arrive before they actually stepped into the room. How? Those heels. Her own were tiny and hardly worn but this woman who was arriving was the kind to be rather seen dead than in an outfit that made her look hideous.
So, when she arrived, the woman let an amused smile cross her face. "Miss PrIIIIIIce!" she called in a sing-song voice, "Come in, come in. Nice to see you here so early and dedicated to your work." Did she know that she had the first pick - after Delphine - on the food? Yes?
Before the woman could ask, someone else had arrived in all their perverted glory. Oh Merlin, was she going to have to put up a rule about flirting in the office? "Mr Quackenboss," she said, giving him a nod, "No, of coUUUUrse not! Otherwise I'm going to balloon up to the size of a whale." Which would make her even less than cool. "Help yourseeeelf!" She gestured towards the plates of food all the while watching him. Mmmmmmhm, she remembered that application of his.
Ah, if it wasn't another familiar face. The sight of one Amethyst McCrae coming in made the woman perk up. "Ms McCrAAAAEEEE! How lovely to see you. I take it your little one is good?" They really needed to arrange more playdates, even if her little boy insisted on playing with older kids. "Oh! And Miss McCrae? Care to make a few notes on the meeting for me, please? Have the notes ready for me by the end of the day." She would've gotten her scribes to do so but since they weren't here...........
Oh, SWOON, she was being handed a gift. Now this was the kind of meeting she liked! Delphine let out the tiniest of squeaks as the basket was placed down in front of her before looking over at the Junior Undersecretary. "Mr Macmillaaaaan! Welcome welcome, it's so good to have you back again. I take it you had a nice trip?" If his tan was anything to go by, at least. It was his holiday and she wasn't one to judge but she felt a small pang of jealousy that he was somewhere warm and sunny and she was stuck here.
............... She loved her job.
When it looked as though no one else was coming, the woman stood up and smiled around at them all. "Welcome one, welcome all to another year at the Ministry." Because she hadn't gotten the chance to say that overall yet. "Help yourself to whatever you want on the table." Apart from her basket that Mr Macmillan had given to her. Ahem.
"Okay, before we get into the main gist of the meeting, I want to mention something to all of you: I'm planning on opening up another room for us. It's not a work room but it's going to be a team building room. A room where we can learn to build up this team so that we're not constantly sitting behind our tables with no clue as to who our neighbours are. If you want to take part, let me know, because for the first task, I'm going to pair each and every one of you up with someone else in the department for this activity." Was that a mad glint in her eyes?
"OkAAAAAY! So the first point of business is............. an eveeeeent! The Magical Games and Sports and the International Corporation Departments are hosting a Youth Quidditch event, as you've probably already heard before. It's going to run during the sunny summer weeks and I want all of you to be hands-on-deck. Be there, see into and out of both departments and help out as much as possible. That goes for the Event Coordinators especially," Eyes on you, Mr Quackenboss. "While it's completely their event, they're going to need someone to help run things smoothly. And who better than people whose job it is to make sure events get started up and run smoothly?" Who better, indeed.
"With that being said, there's going to be quite a few media representatives there as well. You know how the media folk are. SO! Media Liaisons: make sure that they stay in line, okay? There are going to be youths at this event and we're not going to tolerate any misbehaviour of any kind." Which might have been her motherly side talking. "The rest of you: just help out as much as possible in any way you see fit. Go into the departments for regular check-ins and report back to me with your findings."
DEEEEEEEEP breaths. "Any questions? Concerns? Comments?"
OOC: That was sooooo much information oh gosh! Sorry! If you're late and still want to jump in, just pretend you've been here all along ^^
AND AND AND! Let me know about the team building exercise if you haven't done so already.
