Bassoons galore! He pinched his lips together as soon as he noticed she wasn't sitting down. He had half a mind to stand up too, just to make he realize how uncomfortable it was for him, but he realized this wasn't a time for shenanigans. But then again, who was she to inquire about the inner workings of the Department of Mysteries? He was about to snap when he caught one of her nervous ticks.
"What about the Locked Room?" he questioned, looking harshly into her eyes. "I can understand if the Minister himself wants to come and address these matters with me, but if he thinks sending a woman, a woman like you, to come and break some bad news... what, are we loosing funding? He knows the things we've produced from there! He knows how vital that is, and you're what, here to soften the blow?"
He was strangely unsettled. This was the Minister's idea of funny. Send the pretty secretary lady, oh yes, that will make it easier. Aggravated, he leaned back in his chair, no longer amused by the situation.
