"Uh... I'm not really sure I can say whether I like it or not, actually. I haven't done any work yet." He shrugged again. "I guess I don't mind the chit chat. As long as I'm not stuck at home doing nothing." He stared down at the notebook. The figures were moving around, shuffling their places. "What are you doing?"
Richard looked up, "Oh well I just think I arranged my notes in a rather inconvenient order. Great little spell, saves me having to write it all out again. Plus I dont waste as many pages. But these are all intruders, rioters and criminals that have been to the ministry. Some of them we were lucky to stop, others not so lucky" he explained.
"Yes I quite enjoy getting on with the job rather than just sitting at home. Good thing about this department really is you get to visit all the others".
Richard spotted his department head walking away from the throng for an intimate chat with Edward and Louisa, he looked over curiously, pocketed his notebook and put his hands in his pockets and walked over to his head.
"Umm, excuse me. Ms Carter, I dont wish to be rude at all but is it necessary to stay here much longer only I think it would be a good idea if I did get back to work? " he asked prudently.
