Emma walked to the right side of the room, barely noticing the woman that had come up to Mr Serio's office...
No, no, Rico's office, she admonished herself. She was too excited by the prospective of setting up shop. If the woman was another employee of the office, she'd have ample time to meet and greet her properly at another given moment.
Nearby, she found a cubicle that had been decorated. This was probably Ms Peters corner by the window. Emma elected to take the cubicle right next to that one, which had a view through the window too. She grinned at the window, enjoying the magical 'view' that was offered here.
Getting back to business, she emptied her pouch and box, settling her different knick-knacks, family picture, muggle pens and pencils, parchment and so on. She finally added a lovely crystal bowl on the corner of her new desk, adding a bagful of assorted candies and chocolates wrapped in colourful tinfoil. When she worked, she would sometimes forgo meals to finish what she was doing. If she felt hungry, she would automatically dip her hand in the bowl and fish something to eat in the meantime. It was a bad habit of hers, her mother had endlessly prodded about it, but it couldn't be helped. She was a workaholic at times.
Emma eyed her new setting but was a bit underwhelmed by what she saw. The grey walls of the cubicle were too drab for her taste. Taking her wand out, she charmed the dividing walls to a nice steel blue hue. It complemented the grey of rest of the office, but personalized her own space with minimal fuss and bother. If Mr Serio... Rico didn't approve, she would simply change it back to its original colour. With that done, she decided to explore the rest of the office and familiarize herself with all that surrounded her.
