They could keep their budget pens and mugs and ghastly t-shirts that didn't glimmer.

Pfft.

Adjusting her PINK badge, Sachiko caught sight of ... what was her name again? That one Ravenclaw girl. Whatever her name was. HER. That one putting on a green badge. Ugh. Competition for top spot on the level? Sachiko was pretty sure she had better cuticles so whatever.

Still, the Slytherin offered a poliiiiiiiiiite smile at her. Which really came off more as an insincere sneer but whatever.

Oh look. There was a woman who OOZED confidence and demanded attention. Heh.

Sachiko supposed she ought to go over and introduce herself and do a little buttering up. Only that proooooobably meant she would have to subject herself to SERVANT like duties. Fetching coffee, fluffing pillow, giving hair advice and whatever. All things that she had always considered below herself and made first years do FOR her. Or daddy because he was totally and completely wrapped around her finger. Tehe.

So ugh. Fine. FIIIIIIIIIIIIIINE. She would...give this a try she SUPPOSED. All for the sake of becoming Ministry Royalty and bragging rights. May as well get SOMETHING out of this BORING experience.

"Good day, Minister," came her force sing-song voice with a sweeeeeeeet smile. "Sachiko Shiradou-Morrison. I've been bestoyed the honor of interning with your office specifically." Although it was REALLY the other way around. She was a gift.

Oh look. There was a former Head Boy. Hmmm. Eh.

Chloe didn't actually notice the other level one intern because she was too busy looking for that telltale green hue that would single her out as a colleague. It was Day 1 and Day 1 Chloe didn't care much for other departments. She had to gain her bearings, figure out her schedule and be prepared to be thrown into the craziness without any warning or much support.

Fraternising with other departments would come later, once she was proper settled.

It was going to be a day of meetings. Perhaps she could trouble one of the level one interns to bring coffee.


Eventually, Chloe did notice Sachiko (yes, she knew her name as they went to school together and Chloe made it her business to know things) but only when she approached the Minister. Chloe heard the tail end of their conversation and was confused when she said she would be working with the Minister's Office. Didn't she know she was wearing the wrong pin, then? Non-Ravenclaws made no sense to Chloe. Honestly.

She hung back while Althea was bombarded on all sides by people that apparently wanted to brown nose. And when there was a brief opening, she jumped in, "Hello, ma'am. I don't want to keep you. I imagine you're very busy. But I didn't want to be rude and not say hello."

And a hello was just fine. She wasn't going to rope Althea into some dull conversation and keep her from, WELL, running the Ministry.
