They're a way to have new staff meet the department heads and other coworkers before work begins and hopefully help some of the anxiety of starting a new job abate." Becca clearly was distracted, but answered thoroughly.
Once she was finished, she stood up and frowned at the mug in Sophie's hands. "I'm sorry, I have no idea how the coffee got into my tray, but could you either get rid of the smell with a spell or remove it from the room please? It makes me feel quite unwell." Was it that sneaky Maddox trying to play tricks? Nah... that was far too much like effort for him. If this was going to keep happening, she would have to check that tray every few hours! Still standing with her coffee cup in her hands Sophie beamed warmly in return. "It's a pleasure to finally meet you Becca. Please call me Sophie." And not Sophelina like one of her ex colleagues at Beauxbatons had done. So irritating. She watched as Becca started to move things around on the refreshments tray like she was looking for something or other. Nodding Sophie responded "Yes, it was a fun night. I walked away with a handy clock for my grandmother from the auction tables." Maybe she was less anxious about starting her new job now, but she wasn't going to give the Orientation event that she had really thought a big waste of time that credit. And she wasn't going to tell Becca her real honest feelings about the Orientation event at a rugby stadium either. Cringe.
Sophie's brown eyes travelled from the wonderful smelling coffee in her cup to her very distraught looking and sounding new boss. Oops! Reaching for her wand with her free hand she quickly made the liquid disappear with only a teeny tiny bit of reluctance. Eyes on her boss Sophie apologized. "I'm sorry I didn't know you could become nauseous just by a smell." Something to log into memory. "What on the tray can I drink that is safe?" She was not interested in inconveniencing her boss a second time.
