Her eyes returned to Daphne as soon as she started to speak again. A bother? "Oh, no, you're not bothering at all, and that's a very professional thing to do" Sienna never considered introducing her promotion since the ones that were working at the time already knew her, and there was no point in doing so now, right? The woman started to look for a piece of paper in her neatly organized desk, so it didn't take long. "You can have this copy...the ones that are under your supervision are this ones" she said, pointing at the names in the paper, "Jordan Paige" were was that girl? "Cole Finnegan Parker" he was in the meeting, yes? Probably. "And Lyric Brantt" even the name sounded totally unfamiliar to her mind, she still has to pay a visit to the Editor.

Soon after saying the three names, Sienna gave Daphne the piece of paper. It was only a copy, so no biggie.

Why wasn't Sienna surprised that the girl was excited about the Quidditch news? "Really? It sounds like you had a good time playing, though" she said, with a smile, not a fake one, a real one because the happiness was usually contagious, "I was born and raised in America, so...Quidditch was really not part of my life" and it still isn't. Period.
Daphne took the piece of paper with the writers in her section. "Thanks, I hate to admit this, but I failed to catch some of their names," she blushed, feeling this somehow reflected her overall job performance. "Seems that long nightmare is over!" she chuckled, rising from her seat and heading towards the doorway.

She was somewhat surprised to hear Sienna wasn't a Quidditch fan. After all, it was such a large aspect of everyday life in the wizarding world. "Oh, I didn't know Americans didn't like Quidditch!" she said with some mock horror. "Might have to teach you to appreciate the sport," she smiled, seeing the re-education of her boss as a challenge.

"I'll see you around," she waved, then ventured out into the office to find a suitable desk and formally meet her coworkers.
