"Uh uh," he blinked and smiled, "we're just voting on a campaign slogan for Ms. Taylor. Those are the options right there," Rico nodded toward Ben's white board. Well well perhaps this volunteer work would be more enjoyable than he'd thought, especially with awesome coworkers like her.
"I'm Rico Serio, by the way, Daily Prophet Layout Editor." He offered her a warm handshake. "Haven't I seen you around Diagon Alley or something...?" "Thanks, doll," Bella replied, in her usual overly-friendly manner. "I've just voted for...erm...something or another." She waved her hand as if to say "Ehh, whatever," and then casually glanced around the room. Her teammates, or whatever you wanted to call this little group, were busy at work piecing together all the ideas they's managed to come up with. Bella would have to start paying attention and getting more involved at some point. She turned back to Rico and shook his hand. "Bella Greingoth... I'm from Puerto Rico originally, but I moved here to attend Hogwarts. I've been here ever since," she said. "...and you have seen me around Diagon Alley. I own Florean Fortescue's Ice Cream Parlor."

"Meanwhile as Ben said, me and Becca is going to meet the Prophet editors, and if you give your words, it'll be useful for us to complete the work within the due date.." he finished in one breath, calmly yet clearly. When Brian spoke up and addressed the advertising panel---that'd include Bella---, Bella glanced up and hung on to everything he was saying. She seriously needed to start paying close attention and getting involved. "I've already made a few button designs, if you'd like to see them. They're text-only, but I can create more with pictures on them if need be. I'll also be available to create posters and the such, as well," she said. "As far as distributing materials, I own a shop in Diagon Alley---Florean Fortescue's---so I can make the rounds in the various shops near mine. Just let me know, and I'll get right on it!" Quote:

When she returned into Headquarters, she asked of the campaign heads, "Can I get a status report on the progress we've made? Are there slogans for me to approve? And at some point, we need to prepare for the debate, coming up with formal positions on each of the areas of interest." Reagan perched herself atop a table with her legs crossed and her body leaning toward her staff. "Let's not forget that we need to hold a fundraiser, preferably at a location in Diagon Alley. Any ideas?" Bella didn't know much about the status report of the progress they'd made (heck, she didn't even really know what a status report was), but if there was anything she did know about, it was ice cream! If Taylor was looking for a place to have a fundraiser at---particularly in Diagon Alley---Bella knew just the place! Quote:

"And as for a location in Diagon Alley for the fundraiser, there are two choices which come to mind, either the Leaky Cauldron or Fortescues. The advantage to the Leaky Cauldron is that it's roomy, lots of space for people to come and listen in a relaxed, stress free environment. The advantage to Fortescues is that it's a great setting, reminscent of the old ice cream socials muggles used to enjoy. In fact, that might be an interesting idea for a fund raiser - an ice cream social!" It was as if an electric light had suddenly gone off over her head. "I think that might be a really fun way to raise money for the campaign, with an ice cream social, where for a certain fee, people could come and sample lots of different flavors of ice cream and other interesting desserts, that sort of thing." Samantha smiled, she thought this was a brilliant idea. "Are there any other suggestions from the rest of you on this?" she asked, looking around the room. "That's exactly what I was about to suggest!" Bella exclaimed. "You're also in luck with that one, because I happen to own Florean's, so you already have the green light to have your fundraiser there!" Oh, this was just going to be oh-soooo-exciting! A political fundraiser---for the Minister of Magic campaign---in Florean's! Bella nearly bounced up and down at the very though, but she refrained. "If everyone is okay with that idea, I can get to planning right away..."
