Usually she would have sent it via interdepartmental flying memo but ever since they'd been exchanged for owls, she had started to take the notes directly to whomever she'd addressed them to. This way, she hoped, there would be fewer owls flying around the Ministry.

So far it seemed like her plan hadn't quite worked out, however.

Be that as it may, she'd managed to get on a lift WITHOUT any owls above her head and had successfully avoided the owl droppings lining the floor. Smiling at the other employees already inside the lift, Yasmina pushed the button for the Atrium and took out her wand to non-verbally remove some of the owl droppings. Maybe they should do a workshop about what the most efficient spells for owl dropping removal was (those that also got rid of the smell!) so that everyone could-

DING! 'Department of Magical International Cooperation'

She looked up from her wand to look at the other employees. She was quite sure nobody had pressed THAT button and there was nobody waiting for the lift either it seemed. Very strange. But then they were off again, a bit faster than normal (or was that just her imagination?) and she quickly held onto one of the handles.
Well Fletcher had wanted to go down to level one to take this plant to his office yes, he was still collecting and moving plants from DERP to the Minister's Office, but apparently the lift had other ideas for the contents of this box.

"Hmm." The junior undersecretary muttered, exchanging a glance with the woman near the front of the lift. He shifted his potted plant to his other arm and leaned forward to hit the button for Level One again, since it had seemingly gone out, when the lift started up again with another sudden jerk.

Ooof! Fletcher was pushed to the back of the lift as it took off, faster than ever. "Is-- is someone doing this on purpose?" he muttered, looking around at the others on this ride too. Was there some prankster on here?
