Reagan made a mental note to ask Angelina to make regular appearances in that department while he was gone, just to be sure things were running smoothly.

Reagan inquired of Becca, "May I see your ring?"

Mixing business with pleasure, Reagan also asked Brian, "Do you think that when me and my liaisons here get this office cleared out and the one next door that we could get maintenance to remove some of the furniture? And also, can I get someone from Maintenance to change the weather and view outside these windows? Oh, and someone from Security to evaluate that all the protective enchantments on this office are as strong as ever, and maybe add a few news one?"


Turning to Sarah, "So, you're Brian's sister? How wonderful! He used to work in this department before he became head of a department. Let's hope you have just as much success!"

Now directing her attention to both of the liaisons, "Well ladies, let me give you an idea of what I'd like for you to do. First things first, please note that outside this office is the Office of the Senior Undersecretary. We do not yet have a new one, as I just vacated that position when I became Minister, so for the time being you can report directly to Angelina Gilmore, who is the Junior Assistant, or myself. Once we hire a new Undersecretary, he or she will be the main person you report to, other than Angelina, of course. Should you ever need to speak with me directly for anything, just be sure to stop at the new Undersecretary's desk first. In this office, you will also find that memos about new assignments will be placed in an Outbox for you to pick up, as well as a place for you to submit completed reports. Always check these boxes frequently."
Grinning at Reagan's joke, Becca glanced at Brian and then back at Reagan. Ring? She wants to see the ring? "Of course" she smiled and then held up her hand for Reagan to see the ring on her finger. "Brian has fantastic taste" she nodded and then glanced at him again as the discussion turned business-like. Keeping her mouth shut while he dealt with it, she grinned at Sarah. One word drew her attention back to Reagan though. Undersecretary. That was a very good job, and she'd been unsuccessful in her other jobs, maybe it was a good idea to apply for that job? I just want my Ministry career to advance. Becca smiled at Reagan again and kept her mouth shut.
