| | |  The Play Room
Off from the main hall you find a door marred with a child-like drawing. This is the caregivers room, a place where your children can play and have fun while you take care of business. As you step inside you see a charming wizard with a colorful wizards hat. He greets you and asks you to sign the name of your children into the log book.
Looking around you can see several areas where your children can play in a safe environment, everything up to the Ministries standards. To the left is a large playpen, where small stuffed animals lay scattered around just waiting for someone to squeeze them. Beside that there is a medium sized table small enough for youngsters to sit and draw on the provided parchment. All around the walls are pictures of smiling witches and wizards all happily playing. | |

Why was Sturnik being interrupted? Now he was in the middle of his scheduled whistling session patrol of the mint.
He was a busy goblin. So someone should explain to him what was going on. Someone should also explain why, in the name of King Ragnuk the First, where they in the human children's playroom.
He stopped next to Quazi and lowered his voice to a near whisper and said something to her in Gobbledegook. |

He hadn’t brought any of the others along. That had been what Dorian had been trying to transmit to the Gringotts security man, but apparently that had been misconstrued. It just seemed to get even more farcical as Desmond had spoken up only to say nothing different than what had already been established aside from his introduction. “In other words, I only know the reason behind the MLE’s presence,” he clarified, before Victoria had spoken up to try and give some reason for her presence and he let out a bit of the tension that had built up over being involuntarily chosen to speak for everyone. People could speak for themselves, as long as nothing was said to jeopardize the situation. The idea of questioning the goblins was tenuous as it was, and he didn’t want to be on edge even before they arrived. The only saving grace was that Benjy had followed Elinor without needing the verbal directive. That meant there were two less in the group, so maybe they’d stop complaining about invasions.
At that point, the goblins had started filtering in, and he gave them a respectful nod. Unexpectedly, they looked a bit disgruntled after being taken from their duties, so she’d try to keep things short. He’d just have to hope they would at least be willing to offer some assistance, since he’d much rather not have to deal with an official interrogation. It would be better for everyone if they could accomplish everything with this informal discussion. “I apologize for taking you from your duties,” he began, after waiting for the one to finish his murmured comment in Gobbledegook. He’d obviously noticed it, but that wouldn’t bother him. “We simply request a bit of information regarding the items repossessed from Hogwarts and their connection to the unfortunate incident involving vault 713.” At that, he stepped back slightly, letting them have the floor to have their say if they so chose. He could resort to more questions, as anyone in the room could, but letting them volunteer information was simpler and saved everyone the time.

Why did they have to be interrupted during their regular schedule? Hemlor reluctantly followed Quazi and the other goblins into the playroom. There was stuff to be done and instead they had to go to the playroom for what looked like interrogation.
Hemlor already knew what she was going to do. There was no way that she was telling these people anything. They did nothing wrong. The stuff they took was already theirs.
Sturnik then said something to Quazi and Hemlor listened closely. The goblins had to stick together in this.

Sky looked over at the goblins as they started to file in. She gave them a smile. Honestly the goblins looked like they did not like being taken from their duties. Hopefully if they cooperated with them then they could easily return back to their work. As Dorian finished speaking she looked over at the goblins. None of the goblins were speaking just yet. Hopefully one of the goblins would speak, the process would be easier and way simpler if they said the information instead of it having to be a real interrogation...

Colin laid down in the middle of the play area floor with one of the colorful hats covering his eyes. It was time for a well deserved nap break.
He had some paperwork to go through and he was not very eager to get started. He missed the days of being able to bribe the Keller kid to do it for him. Maybe he could get one of the other employees to take over that sort of thing.

Maybe he could get one of the other employees to take over that sort of thing. Where else would he expect Colin to take a break. Certainly not his desk where there is nasty paperwork to get back to. No the one place Nigel did find him is the The Awesome Play Room. Which as he said was pretty awesome. Nigel shook his head amused as he say Colin laying down in the middle of the floor. Clearly having the nap of his life in disguise with one of those colorful hats.
Nigel walked over to where the stuff animals where and started tossing them at Colin yelling
"Incoming!"
Every-time he tossed one.

Every-time he tossed one. Colin heard the door open in the distance. Hopefully that didn't mean children were coming in. That would put an abrupt end to his nap.
"Oomph."
Definitely a child.
He lifted up one side of the hat and glanced at Nigel. "Is the bank burning down?" Otherwise, he'd need a good reason to be waking him up.

Even if it was be adorable stuffed animals. It not like he in an office or somewhere. This was the play room. Lets ignore the fact Nigel was bored.
"No but paperwork you love to procrastinate on might be burnt to a crisp, i don't know. Plus I don"t think the goblins would ever let this place be burned down."
Nigel threw one more stuffed animal at him before making his way closer to him.
"I'm sure there are better places to take a nap then here?"
Like anywhere without the possibility of little kids running in here.

Like anywhere without the possibility of little kids running in here. Nobody liked being woken up by stuffed animals. It was a fundamental rule of life. Which mean, he really should find another napping spot. Maybe one of the decommissioned vaults would work?
Colin glanced over at the younger guy. "There probably wasn't anything terribly important in that pile." Probably. He should probably verify that though. That would involve paperwork though.
He nodded. "True. The goblins can get pretty intense over things."
Oomph. How many stuffed animals were in this room?
Weirdly enough, he was also thinking that. "Probably. I didn't really think it through."

Yeah Nigel was sure there was at least one important paper in that mountain of paperwork he usually has on his desk. Oh well not his problem. And Nigel could have told him that."But what if there was a proposal for a water gun wand fight between staff in that pile of paperwork. That would be awesome" He was 99 percent sure there was not. But yeah it would be awesome. Nigel was now imagining it his head.
"You could have at least found a place with a foam pit to nap"
Or make one. He was a manager. Nigel forgot what to. But a manager was a manager.

Colin laughed. "That wouldn't even have to wait in the pile if that were a proposal." He'd have signed off on that right away. "They're probably just audit forms." That what they usually were. Or signing off on services provided.
"I could have, yeah. Maybe I'll get one of those installed in one of the bank vaults."
"How's your stuff going? Need any help with it?" He looked far too well kept together for a cursebreaker.

"How's your stuff going? Need any help with it?" He looked far too well kept together for a cursebreaker. Uh, well Nigel guessed he did have a point there and well audit forms did sound dreadfully boring. Well anything was probably boring when you have to read through and sign documents. Sounds almost as bad as autograph signings. And Nigel did not even get paid for those.
"When you do tell me. I will be more than happy to test if it awesome to nap in one. During my break of course "
His stuff, well it was mostly tedious paperwork. He actually enjoyed when it wasn't paperwork and counting money. Nothing new or anything.
"Unless you want to help me count coins. That is about it besides paperwork which had not been set on fire"
Shame. Though he probably would have had to find a way to complete to anyway.

Shame. Though he probably would have had to find a way to complete to anyway. Colin laughed. "We'll just make a staff meeting out of it, shall we?" Seemed like the only obvious conclusion. Goblins could run things for an hour... or two... or four.
So he had paperwork too? Maybe it was about time to hire some more interns. They were good for the paperwork thing.
"We've got scales for that sort of thing." Who actually took the time to count coins? He then raised an eyebrow. "Did you actually light anything on fire?"

"We've got scales for that sort of thing." Who actually took the time to count coins? He then raised an eyebrow. "Did you actually light anything on fire?" Now that would be a staff meeting Nigel would not want to miss. though now that he was thinking about it he could not even remember the last staff meeting. Did he even have one since he started working. "Whenever i use the scales something always goes wrong. too bad we don't have interns for this. Plus they would be fun to tease" Yes he knew you can be mean to interns. But you could have a tiny bit of fun. Especially when things got boring when there were no jobs and all he was doing was counting money.
Well he did light some paper on fire. But none of Colin's paperwork. He only lit his paperwork he did not need to hand in on fire.
"I did"
He was bored when he did. So that is his excuse.

"I did"
He was bored when he did. So that is his excuse.
Colin raised his eyebrow. "Something goes wrong? How could you possibly use a scale wrong?" That was a legitimate question. Colin wanted to see this in action. As far as he knew, and he has tried, there wasn't anything that could go wrong.
So, naturally, his interest was peaked.
"We should get a new set of interns. I'll bring it up." Interns were always fun. "Remember seeing the dragon for the first time?" That was always his favorite part of new meat.
He did light things on fire? He narrowed his eyes for half a second before shrugging. Fair enough. At least he fessed up.

The scale he used hated him. It was a fact. It did not help that Nigel liked to light it on fire when he was bored counting and well that happened a lot when he was new. "Well sometimes when i put too many galleons on one scale it will just say 1 knut to mess with me. Other times it just hates me" Or maybe he just did no know how to use the scale still.
Who knows what is the real answer. Nigel didn't.
Remember seeing Bunny Oh yes Nigel remembered. He had to feed him with Jake and some other peeps Nigel did not remember the names of.
"You made us feed the Dragon and i will never forget that. Though it was fun and one of the reasons i first wanted to work here"
Crazy and Fun.
