The door is cherry-wood, dark but well-polished. The knocker, shaped like a dolphin, is what can allow you inside.

The office is high-ceilinged, windows thrown open everywhere to allow in streams of sunlight. Sometimes, the weather the windows let in is cold, very cold; and, at others still, scented of rain, and wet mud, and old, old downpours. Behind the big desk is a comfortable chair, neat, efficient, business-like in every respect.

But this is where the 'professional' side of the room ends, and the 'personal' side begins.

There's a bookshelf, a tall, extremely elegant one, in a corner; right next to a trophy cabinet; which, in turn, is adjacent to a splendid display of high heels. They aren't ordinary high heels, but a decorative kind, including a pair of glass ones, porcelain types, and even a jewel-studded pair. If you can manage to get over the surprise they offer, you might glance back at the desk, behind which Sion is usually seated, to see what adorns it.

There are two photographs there, set in twin frames, and both show Sion. Next to them is a small, glass duck. On the other side of the table, beside a pile of paperwork, is a photograph of a dark, good-looking man, with the words 'With love, from Ramiro' signed on it.

In the middle of the table stands a beautiful glass vase, full of fresh, really really red roses, and the scent of its inhabitants mixes with a most exotic perfume, that lingers everywhere in the office. Gentle, not overwhelming, but certainly enchanting.

Knock before you enter, please.

Chris was finally pleased to see that his boss' department office had been set up finally. Now he felt that it would be customary for him to go and introduce himself. From what he could tell the office looked to be well completed by now and in good shape. Walking up to the door he knocked loudly enough so he could be heard.

Sion looked around. The office looked fine, now. Much better, than it had when she had first stepped in. But there was obviously a lot she still had to. Little things to take care of. She straightened up, and was about to head towards the Trophy Cabinet, when there was a knock at the door.

"Please come in," she said, cheerfully. There was a high heel in one of her hands, and a big file in the other, but Sion didn't mind.

"Am i Interrupting anything? i do hope i'm not" said Chris "Im actually your new division head for the task force and charms division. I felt it just be good to stop by and introduce myself. You have a nice office here" said Chris looking around in all directions.

"Oh no, not at all," Sion said, good-naturedly. "I apologise if I look out-of-order." She could look professional enough when she wanted to, but she hadn't expected anyone to show up. She placed the high heel down on the rack, set the folder on the desk, and motioned to the seat that faced hers, across the big desk. "Please take a seat."

Oh, right. Division Head. Sion had approved that application, one of the first tasks she had done since she had stepped into her new role.

"Mr. Hobgartner?" she asked, remembering the name. She had a good memory, but she still wanted to be sure. "Sion Jetza," she offered. "You can call me Sion. Oh, and thank you," she added, eyes sparkling as her gaze swept her office. "I didn't want it to look boring. I've never been able to take well,to boring places." It was a pleasant admission.

"Nice to meet you Sion, and yes you do indeed have my name correct. So are you pleased that you are a department head now its a great appointment. My division needs more employees its like we only have one active and that's Gavin, But i trust your reasoning whatever it might be."

Pleased. Well. "I'm excited," Sion offered, as if that explained a lot. "I've been to plenty of places," she said, in a matter-of-fact but bright voice. "But you're right, I look forward to working here. It's a lovely department." She wouldn't have applied otherwise, of course.

"I haven't settled in yet, Mr. Hobgartner, but that problem has been brought up," she said, with a little nod of her head. "You'll have a new employee joining you soon." She consulted the file on top of the pile of paperwork. Yes, she had taken on a new employee for Chris's division, only earlier this morning. The employee in question had had a good resume.

Always a plus.

"Well thats good to hear Sion" He liked her name for some reason. "Well i wanted to ask you something. Ive come up with a new charm idea and i think it would be useful if i could use the conference room to discuss the idea with my employees or perhaps the other employees on the level if they are interested."

Sion considered this. Perhaps she ought to look into this, but the inner Sion told her to go with the wind, say yes, and not ask for an official report, yet. She wanted his ideas to be as much of a surprise for herself, as they would be for the others. Though of course, paperwork would have to enter the scene later on. Records are essential.

"By all means, go ahead, Chris," she said, after a moment of thought. "Let me know when you'll need the use of the Conference Room. I think you ought to restrict this to your own division for now but, if you would like the other divisions to take part, I can ask the other division heads if it's possible, and we can work out a time." The other divisions would have their own schedules, after all.

"Thank you" said Chris "Also feel free to drop in anytime you would like. I expect this to not take to long in that room." Chris nodded at her with respect. Chris did not wish to take too much of her time but then he asked the question "How are you holding up in this office?"

Sion beamed. "I'll be sure to."

"Fine, so far," she said, as she took in the office. It was shaping up alright. "I hope we'll be able to have a good time, together." Fun was important to Sion Jetza. Healthy fun. "Would you like a cup of tea or coffee, Chris?"

How rude of her not to ask before. But, like they say, better late than never. So yes, she had asked now.

"A glass or goblet of water would be fine if you have some" Chris said. He wasnt a fan of those other liquids but he appreciated the offer his department head had given him. "Would you permit me to tell you a brief summary of my idea in here just so you know ahead of time?" Chris asked.

"Of course." Sion summoned the tea-tray, and let a jug pour water into a goblet, for Chris. She could have a cup of tea, in the meanwhile.

Oh, and he wanted to tell her a summary of what he had in mind. Sion had no problem with that. "Fire away," she said, as she added cream to her own mug. The scent of hot tea was, as always, revitalizing. She looked at Chris as she picked up the cup, waiting for him to speak.

"My idea is rather simple but quite good i believe at the same time. I have come up with a way to halt bad spells. It involves the earth metal gold. Basically it stops bad spells from coming out of wands. The incantation for this charm is "Goldius" when that is said a thin gold sheet appears in front of your wand and any wands in the vicinity of your wand can not cast any bad spells it pretty much breaks the wand up. A protego spell is embedded in the sheet to protect it from wandsthat might somehow get past the spell."

Erindipity · 07-16-2010, 06:15 PM

A paper airplane memo came floating into Sion's office with the words YOUR EXTREME AWESOMENESS written on the outside. It landed itself right on her desk and waited...

SPOILER!!: note

Awesome Lady,

Do not forget you made a date with me. I will bring the flowers and chocolate you bring your wit and charm. Send a message back to the Law Enforcement Offices to let me know when and where exactly.

- Damien

Sion listened, with obvious interest. "That sounds excellent, Chris," she said, when the Division Head fell silent. "I believe it will require careful experimentation to perfect, though. One can never guess anomalities, or if there are certain spells that can easily get past it. It sounds like a good, basic shield charm, though."

Sion doubted it could control Unforgivables, however. Then there was dark magic to consider. There would obviously have to be a fair amount of testing before this spell could be registered and added to the stock of safe, perfected spells. Of course, Chris would know that quite well. He was the Head of the Experimental Charms Committee, after all.

Sion set down her cup of cream-tea, when a memo came floating into her office. Oh my, business already? But the moment she had picked it out of the air, and read the words on it, her lips tugged up into a gorgeous smile. This had to be from Damien. Who else would call her that?

She skimmed through the note, opened a drawer, and gently dropped the note into it. She was going to reply to this, later this evening.

Dan knocked on the door to his new boss' office. He wanted the chance to formally welcome her to the Department. And the fact that he found her hot was just an added bonus for him really.

He waited for her to answer the door. Hopefully she would be impressed with his amazing talents as a Division Head.

Oh, a knock at the door. Sion wondered who it could be. Perhaps it was Damien. No, it would be silly to hope he would march right in, especially considered she had just received a memo from him. She wasn't supposed to care, at any rate. Did she?

She focused her attention back on to Chris. "If you don't mind?" she asked, before raising her voice a notch.

"Please come in."

"Sion" Chris said "I think i will just go back to work and let the other diivision heads introduce themselves to you. Thank you for your time." Chris left the room and went back to his peaceful cubicle.

Oh, but there was no need for him to leave -

He had already risen to his feet.

"It was a pleasure to meet you, Chris," Sion said, with a little nod. "If you ever need to discuss something, feel free to drop in again, anytime." She watched him head out of the office and then, still wondering who had knocked, picked up a quill and dipped it in purple pink.

To write a reply to Damien.

Dan opened the door and smiled at the hot woman as she said he could enter. He hadn't really had a chance to meet her properly yet, but he had seen her around.

"Hello, I'm Dan McDean." She would know who he was since she was his boss. She would know that he was one of her Division Heads. "I wanted to meet you as my new boss and welcome you to the Department."

Wow. This acting nice stuff was hard. And he hated it. It was rather sickening.

Dan McDean. She knew that name. "You must be the Head of the Accidental Magic Reverse Squad," she said, politely. "Please do have a seat, Mr. McDean." She waved at the two, comfortable seats that stood opposite her, on one side of the desk behind which she sat.

She had been about to ask him how she could help him, when he stated the purpose of his visit. "Thanks," she said, a slight smile playing around her lips. "I hope we'll help make a good team."

Alex walks up to the nice looking door. She laughed when she saw the knocker, as dolphins were her favorite animals.

Although, she is still confused about what happened to Wesley. Oh well.
Alex knocked on the door and waited for an anwer.

Oh my. Knocks, knocks, everywhere!

"Come in," Sion said cheerfully, looking up at the door. Probably another employee, who wanted to introduce her or himself. Or perhaps someone who wanted a mug of hot coffee. Both welcome, of course.
