What a F U N idea, bowling.

Not.

But Olly would have to play along, seeing as this was part of their shared Ministry orientation. At least they could come here dressed casually, no need for any type of fancy clothes in a bowling alley, right? Still, not exactly her idea of fun though but nonetheless she was here. And she expected NOTHING LESS from her employees. Speaking of...they were all here, weren't they?

Sending a polite smile in the general direction of the Minister, Olly quickly slipped past him (before he could engage her in any type of chitchat) and grabbed a pair of bowling shoes and the most neutral colored shirt she could find, i.e. the one for the Spareialis Revelio team. Beautiful. After bending down to put on her bowling shoes first, Olly then stood upright and...looked for any and all sort of excuse to not put on that shirt right away. Maybe one of her-

-ah, yes, she'd been meaning to speak with Lucy anyway.

Grey shirt still in hand, Olly quickly made her way over to her employee, a genuine smile on her lips. "Lucille, hello." Not really in the mood to bowl just yet either? "How was your winter break?" While waiting for an answer, she leaned against the table Lucy was sitting at a little and briefly glanced around the bowling alley again.

Hello, Mariana, we see you.

What an interesting event.

Yasmina Payton hadn't known what to expect when she'd received the invitation to a "Ministry Orientation"-event at the Diagon Alley bowling alley. Was this something the Ministry did every year? It sounded like a good idea to her at the very least. So all the employees could get to know each other outside the regular work place environment. She hadn't been bowling in quite some time; discussing it with her husband earlier, they'd come to the conclusion that it had probably been for their son's 8th birthday party. But she was definitely willing to give it a go. Hopefully it would give her a chance to introduce herself to some of her co-workers.

Leaning against the counter to slip out of her heels and into the provided bowling shoes, Yasmine took her time, surveying the bowling alley and trying to find the only person she had met before: her department head, Eliora Dodderidge. Who apparently hadn't arrived yet or was busy elsewhere at the moment. Well, she would have to find her at a later time then. For now, Yasmina turned to have a closer look at the T-Shirts, which had different team names on them. Some of them were quite clever, weren't they? Smiling to herself, she ended up picking the black one, reading Striketumsempras.

He walked up to the counter and grabbed a black shirt, hoping it'd at least be discreet. Regrettably changing his trainers out for the ridiculous bowling shoes he decided he'd stay far away from the lanes and have a bite to eat instead. Much more appealing. Moving over to the tables he grabbed a nice greasy cheeseburger with all the fixings and took a seat close enough to the crowd and far enough that he hoped not to be bothered.

After another quick look around, Yasmina eventually spotted someone who, too, appeared to have chosen the Striketumsempras-team and made her way over to him. "Hello. It appears we're on the same team." She said, once she was close enough for him to hear her, an easy smile playing around her lips. To prove her point, she then held up the shirt before quickly taking off her light jacket and putting the bowling shirt on.

"My name is Yasmina Payton. Which department do you work for?"
