| | IWC Opening Ceremonies Guest Seating
Construction may have just finished days ago, but you'd never know it by the way the newly converted courtroom-to-auditorium looked - so finished, so polished and so ready for its sole purpose - the opening ceremonies of the International Wizarding Conference. With introductions of each visiting country's Minister to be made, performances and foods to celebrate the world's leaders gathered here, and the British Ministry's very own Minister to open up the summit, a new venue needed to be constructed to allow for such events.
From the doors through which all enter, the seats cascade downward, all facing the most important area of any auditorium - the stage. A stage upon which will sit ten of the most formidable and respected leaders of the Magical World. A stage which will feature a number of speeches and performances unlike any other.
At the center of the center aisle is a round clearing, which will house the wand torch statue that represents the magic and power of a conference of this kind.
Set-up of decorations is just finishing up and shortly the opening ceremonies will commence! |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Sloane W. Fordyce First Year | Cheesy Mac Reagan entered the newly built auditorium and took a very deep breath. She loved the smell of wood and there was lots of it here in this large room. As she glanced around, she recognized how perfectly the construction team fabricated this room to the design they were given. Every wood shade was precisely the same as drawn, the fabric of the chair cushions the exact shade of purple as the Ministry's infamous logo, even the lighting was precisely the right hue as imagined.
Walking up to the stage, Reagan inspected the large 'M' emblazoned on the wood of the stage, a symbol of the power and majesty of the magic this Ministry stood for. Getting to work on the definites of the set-up, Reagan whipped out her wand and began setting up furniture, starting with placing the large heavy table on the left-hand side of the stage on a diagonal so that all the Ministers would be able to be seen by every person in attendance at this conference while they were seated here. She next levitated to the center of the stage the podium from behind which some of the most important speeches of this Ministry had ever been made and from behind which several more amazing speeches would be made very soon.
Glancing about the room as she attempted to envision how best to decorate, Reagan located the closet she asked to be built to house some of the Ministries linens for the conference, in addition to an assortment of other decorations that need to be displayed. Staring through the doorway into the small room, Reagan wondered how she would ever finish getting this room decorated in time for the start of the opening ceremonies...

Hogwarts RPG Name: Laylee Lynn Russell Seventh Year | Cambell walked in the auditorium and looked around. She spotted Reagan across the room and walked, quickly, towards her. "Hello Miss Taylor." She said as she reached her. "This scroll showed up by Floo Powder in the Greeting Hall, it says it urgent." She said calmly, handing the scroll to her. Cambell couldnt help but notice that there wasnt much that had gotten done in this room. She wished she could help in some way.
Cambell waited incase the scroll gave instructions in some way.

| SnitchStealer <3 Chocolate Rain=Mmm! Angelina entered the auditorium, her eyes observing the large room.
Oh dear, that was such a large room and they didn't have much time to decorate it.
She noticed Reagan examining the large 'M' inscribed on the wood of the stage, and she started to walk towards her superior. "Reagan." she nodded at the woman that was glancing about the room, then asked. "Do you have any ideas for the decoration?" Aside sticking with the traditional Ministry colours of gold, purple and white.

Cambell waited incase the scroll gave instructions in some way. As the scroll reached Reagan's hands, the ribbon holding it together fell away to reveal the following message: Quote: To the British Minister of Magic:
G'day sir. It is with deep regret that I have to inform you that I will be tardy for the International Conference and may even miss part of the opening ceremonies. Just as I was preparing to shoot through via portkey, a stickybeak bloke in our Magical Creatures department was attacked by a bunyip while on a mission, which chased him into a pond where a Freshie was waiting for him with razorsharp teeth! Needless to say, the bloke is pretty mangled up and we needed to transport him to our mediwizard clinic. As the bloke happens to be an upstanding employee who was injured during his line of work, it is imperative that I lob in to the clinic and remain nearby until we receive word that his wounds will successfully heal and to compensate the mediwizards for their care. After all, would hate for the bloke's legal counsel to have to get involved... But enough of that, I shall arrive just as soon as I'm no longer flat out like a lizard drinking, mate. Until then, rage on with the opening ceremonies!
Respectfully yours,
Kaylee Whittaker
Minister of Magic

She looked around and saw the woman that she knew to be Reagan Taylor. She walked over and introduced herself. "Hello Ms. Taylor. I'm Ryan Jacobs from the Dept. of International Cooperation. I was told to come down here and help decorate" She said with a smile. |

Tonya walked into the auditorium and headed over to Reagan and Angelina, "Reagan, Angelina."She said the the women and nodded. She looked around the auditorium and thought for a moment. "I have a few ideas about the decoratons." she said to them.

Turning to Angelina, she asked, "Can you write in calligraphy? Or at least have really neat penmanship?" Quote:

"Will you help me hang this above the stage?" Quote:

She waved goodbye to her and left, back to the Greeting area.

Jacob nearly sprinted to Level Ten, an interdepartmental memo crumpled in one hand. It detailed the decorating that needed to be done for the foreign ministers. It's scary how much I've felt like helping out lately, Jacob thought idly as he traveled. Maybe I should've been a Hufflepuff.
He arrived at the room to see a brilliantly constructed setup, perfect in nearly every detail. There were a number of Ministry employees here already. Jacob wandered around, admiring all the creativity, finally making his way to where a lady seemed to be in charge, giving out instructions and requesting ideas.

Forrester entered the level 10 hall and headed towards the auditorium, he looked around and noticed Miss Reagan.
"I'm sorry to disturb you in such a time" Forrester said when he was close enough. "But I just wanted to ask something... Does the minister need his security service now?" Forrester asked.

Seeing as how she had some free time every now and then in her department she was happy to come down here. Reagan lifted her wand out of her robes and levitated the other end of the banner. She raised the banner to one level above the stage and inspected if she liked the positioning. Deciding it was too high, Reagan lowered her side and reevaluated. Now the banner seemed too droopy, though the height was good. She requested of Ryan, "Can you pull your end a bit farther out so it makes it just a bit more taut? I think it will look cleaner and sharper that way." Quote:

Jacob wandered around, admiring all the creativity, finally making his way to where a lady seemed to be in charge, giving out instructions and requesting ideas. While Reagan was inspecting the appearance of the banner above the stage, she sensed a new body at her side. Turning her head slightly and trying to multi-task, Reagan asked, "How can I help you?" Quote:

Reagan listened to Tonya's ideas and at first thought she was merely repeating what Reagan had requested before - that the decor honor each country somehow. But upon further inspection, Reagan realized the unique contribution that Tonya had made - focusing on the culture and the way the Ministers live. It was brilliant!
Reagan's face spread into grin and she exclaimed, "Tonya, I just knew you would be an asset to our department when I read your application! Your idea is absolutely brilliant! We could devote each section of the auditorium to the customs of each country, displaying traditional clothing and items of daily life from the countries, because that is, after all, why we are here, gathered together - to effect the change that will affect the daily lives of the people within the magical community worldwide! Brilliant!"
Reagan surveyed the walls of the room and began dividing the sections up for different countries. She explained, "Two food tables containing an assortment of traditional items from each of the different countries will be located in the back of the auditorium for the press and employees of the Ministry and another will be located just behind the larger table that I've already placed on the stage for the Ministers to enjoy. We could place the tables in between the displays on the back wall..." Reagan trailed off from basically talking to herself while she thought out loud and then explained more clearly the task at hand. "Let's work with the two side walls and the back wall to display items. Three countries on each wall will cover all nine visiting countries. Then, for the shorter half walls on either side of the stage, we'll display items from our own culture. Ok, now we need to determine which items we want to display. Let's go in alphabetical order and decide. Australia, Bulgaria, and China. What do you think?" Quote:

Reagan pondered the man's question and replied, "I believe he is still in his fitting right now for his robes. So I would say, not quite yet. Though, you could surely go up to my office and wait outside his office door until the seamstress exits. Then you could inform the Minister of your presence and purpose, but be sure to knock first, and he'll let you know if he feels your presence is needed at that time or later."

"Of course miss. Reagan, have a nice day and excellent job" Forrester replied as he turned around and walked towards the first floor

Tonya listened intently and looked around the room, "Thats a great idea." she said with enthusiasm, "Do you think we could get a few employees to dress in the traditional clothes from each country? And maybe have them stand in that section and tell a little about the culture?" she asked her.

"My name's Jacob Webster," added Jacob. Seeing that the woman's hands were full, he decided against his instinct to hold out a hand to shake.

It just wasn't.
You could ask her to do anything and she would do a good job.
But job's involving decoration.. er.. anyways.. "Well.. a few.. but - she was interrupted by Tonya's voice.
Oh thank Merlin she had ideas!
The young woman moved her eyes to Tonya and waited patiently for her answer to Reagan's question.
The young woman’s lips finally curved into a smile when she heard Tonya’s suggestion. She actually thought that was an amazing idea..and it looked like Reagan had the same opinion.
In fact, Reagan got all exited with Tonya's idea.. she even started to talk fast, again.
Finally things were moving. "Yes, sure.” she replied with a nod to Reagan’s question while she moved towards the heavy stationary kit.

There really aren't any spare employees who can play the roles. But that's ok, I think displaying items from the cultures will be sufficient, especially considering we just don't have time to do much else. But regardless of our time crunch, this place needs to look as if it took hours to put together.
"Now, as for items, many of the Ministers' secretaries sent our Ministry gifts and tokens of appreciation, as is custom for the hosting country to receive. Quite a few were items I think we can use to decorate this room. I'd just need to head up to my office briefly to grab them. While I'm gone, perhaps think of a way to tastefully decorate each Minister's chair to make them feel more comfortable?" Quote:

Put a good sticking charm on it so it doesn't move and that will be set. Once that is done, I need you to come up with some ideas of items that represent our culture, perhaps clothing or miniatures of prominent architectural beauties? Anything but food because we already have that covered. Thanks!" Quote:

Reagan greeted the man with a smile and asked, "Can you retrieve the large rectangular table from the closet and set it up behind the even larger table already on stage? The table you'll be setting up is for the food, which should be arriving very soon. Please place one of the purple tablecloths that are also in the closet on top of the table. And then, if you have any ideas for other ways to decorate this place, please share!" Quote:

Can you keep everything under control down here for a moment? I need to run up to my office to grab some supplies to help with the decorating. Also, if you find someone in this group with artistic talent, ask them to draw some fancy images on each of the cards you're writing the names on. They can either personalize each one to the country of the corresponding Minister or include all 10 countries representations on the card and use the same image for all of the cards. I'll leave that up to you all to decide. Be right back!" And without waiting for a reply, Reagan dashed off to the lifts.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Zahra Kettleburn Seventh Year | Inside Kitty | HIT ENTER | UNO Queen "Miss Tayloooooooor!" Clara sang the name as she entered the big room. Since Taylor wouldn't clear her Brenny's schedule, she might as well do a little work. "This really seems like the place to be. Why didn't you tell me this is where the action was?" Clara, her pen out and flapping in wind from her prompt stride, approached the group of Ministry workers. Weren't they all just precious? "Could someone get me a coffee?" |

| SnitchStealer <3 Chocolate Rain=Mmm! When Angelina turned around to answer to Reagan’s question, the woman was already leaving the room.
Angelina smiled while she observed her boss leaving. “Er.. sure.” she said, even though she was sure that Reagan couldn’t hear her.
The young woman turned around and kept writing the minister’s names when she heard someone entering the room.
She thought that it was Reagan, but then she heard the minister’s wife voice.
Angelina could imagine why Reagan didn’t say anything to Clara. Obvious answer.. she thought to herself.
Coffee?
Angelina couldn’t help think that Clara Belle must have passed by a thousand places where she could have asked for a coffee.. maybe when coffee was given to her by some ministry worker it tasted better.
She turned around with a smile on her lips. “Good morning. she said while she took a step forward. “I’ll be right back. I’m going to get your coffee.
That was not what Angelina was expecting to do as Junior Assistant.. but oh well.

And then, if you have any ideas for other ways to decorate this place, please share!" "I can't say that I have any brilliant ideas for decorating," said Jacob apologetically, "But I'd be happy to fetch that table." With that, Jacob went off in search of the closet.
He soon found it, a neatly organized space the size of a small room. The table in question was covered in cloth, packages, and other seemingly random objects; Jacob removed them with a wave of this wand. With another wave of his wand, the table was clothed in the Ministry's rich purple, one more wand-wave and the completed table was levitating towards the stage. Jacob carefully guided it, setting it down silently, then readjusting it's position a few times before he was satisfied.
As he was finishing up, he noticed Clara Belle enter the room and ask for a cup of coffee. Jacob would have gladly jumped to help her, but another worker, one not from his department, sprinted to get the drink before he had a chance. Disappointed, Jacob glanced around the room and noticed, with further disappointment, that Level Five was sadly underrepresented.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Adriana "Addie" Valentine Second Year | Donia walked in to the auditorium, pausing momentarily as she surveyed what was going on. This whole thing was a bigger deal than she had expected. She looked around for Reagan, the person Rico told her to go see about helping.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Sloane W. Fordyce First Year | Cheesy Mac Reagan re-entered the auditorium to find that not much progress had been made during her short absence. And ugh! Clara was here to interfere with everything! How in the world would she get anything done with The Beast lurking over her shoulder!?!?
Placing the boxes on the floor beside the door, Reagan called everyone in the room back to regroup, "Everyone, please join me over here. We have a lot of work to do and not much time left to do it. I've gathered items sent to us by many of the foreign Ministries whose Ministers are in attendance of our Conference. We're going to devote small areas of the walls of the room to the cultures of each country by displaying numerous items, like clothing, athletic equipment, etcetera. I'm going to give anyone who wants to help a box with items from a particular country and I'm going to direct you to an area of the room that I'd like for you to set up. Who would like to volunteer?"
