From day one of when she understood stuff, dad and mum taught her all about potioneering. He didn't seem to want to go on about why his parents never told him. Which she could understand a little. She hated her parents for most of her life. She had a horrible childhood and didn't like chatting about it.
She giggled and gave a shrug. "Having a common name never hurt anyone. My nephews all have boring names. Besides, I like Chris. It suits you," she told him, observing his face and features with her hazel eyes. "I've been a Division Head for four months in the Education Department, once a common employee for five. When I moved back to England, and applied for a job, I was the Liason for the Education Department. Back when they still had Liasons," she explained, after listening to him mention his background here at the Ministry. Her time at a Liason was short. Only about a month or two. "I don't know many people either. Just those in my department and a couple in the Magical Creatures and Beasts," Briony mentioned.
"Ah. No, they did. They just didn't tell me they were 'magical' till I turned eleven. And I was wondering why we were living as simple muggles when we could live much conveniently as magical people but as I said, I know the reason now." He smiled at Briony as he stopped talking for a while to listen to her who was now talking about her past jobs and such.
He blushed a little when she said she liked the name Chris for him 'cause it suited him pretty well. Well, she was actually right. All he had to say to her was 'Thanks' and hoping she didn't noticed that he blushed a little. And he thought he should ask about something different. Not just all about works and all. Maybe he should ask her interests too. "Er. I hope you don't mind me asking," he looked at her with an eager gaze, searching for Briony's any sign of being confused but gladly, she had not. "Do you have a boyfriend?"
