Speaking of she heard the commotion and eyed the man in the suit. Was the ministry hiring children dressed as men? She couldn't help but look at and roll her eyes at the man who seemed to be upset about.... a cat? Good gracious she hoped he wasn't in creatures or in her department for that matter. Was that, that was her husband laughing over there with the man. What was he doing even associating and then it hit her. That man had been a professor with her husband and a professor when Bart was there. These were the moments she was very glad she removed her son from that school., but her husband associating with such immaturity here. He had almost been minister for goodness sake, she hoped he wouldn't start carrying on like a child as well. If she wanted to be near children she would have stayed home. She wasn't going over, but she did give him a look.

Oh well back to the man near her, "What job did you have before this that wasn't a desk job?" She was always curious as to what people did before coming to the ministry. "I am Victoria Culloden by the way. Manager of the quidditch division."

Javi blushed a little, since that hadn't been exactly what he meant, but of course she couldn't have known that. "Oh, well, it was TECHNICALLY a desk job - I was an associate professor before this. I haven't been working for the past year or so, though. Legal troubles - long story short, I just gained full custody of my daughter," he explained with a small smile.

He didn't WANT to be one of those dads that bragged about his daughter constantly but...yeah, he was TOTALLY going to be one of those dads. It was already starting no matter how hard he tried to stop it...

After thinking for a brief moment, he continued, "Was I really being that transparent?" with a grin. Either that or he'd just met a legilimens.

"Oh. And I'm Bea-- Theodore," he corrected himself quickly and extended a hand, but he couldn't help the slight wrinkle in his nose at using his formal name. He never went by Theodore. Not even his own mother called him that. It had always been Bear, ever since he was a baby. BUT this was a professional setting, and he figured a childhood nickname wasn't very professional. Being young as he was, he wanted people to respect him, and an evolution of the nickname "Teddy" didn't seem conducive to that.

Still. Theodore. Yuck.

Ah. So this guy was more concerned with the MESSAGE of the shirt. Javi chuckled and shrugged. "Eh, just a bit. And I just think they're a bit...well, ugly," he added with a grin. He smiled and gave the guy a handshake in return.

"Javier Hernandez, but I go by Javi," he explained. "What department are you in?" he added. This guy seemed to be alright, from the brief interaction they'd just had...
