Re: TABLE E: MINISTRY THREE lenore_grey December 22 2006, 23:48:08 UTC

Ah, Hogwarts. Lenore leaned back in her chair and smiled, ever present mug of coffee cradled lovingly in her hands. Actually, as she thought about it school hadn't been the best time of her life. The getting away from home and learning things, that had been good. Being good at things was even better but classmates... Well, there was a bright shiny end to all horrible things and overall Hogwarts was something she looked back on fondly. She didn't have to listen to people talking down to her now and there was always the luxury of ignoring them.

Lenore sipped at her coffee and surveyed the milling crowd with another smile. It was true, she couldn't precisely say much about the Department of Mysteries. Really, it either sold itself based on the utter lack of information given or people assumed it was just too boring to tell and never bothered. Either way, Lenore wasn't really here for recruitment. This was a vacation from her current project (which was still being difficult) and a chance to socialize; and oh, did Lenore love to socialize. She sent Salix across the room an unimpressed look and wondered just how long she should sit here minding things before it was alright to give up pretenses and wander around. The pamphlets on the table said as much as she could anyway.

Re: TABLE E: MINISTRY THREE amorisaamherst December 23 2006, 00:01:38 UTC

Amorisa walked up to the table and smiled at the woman there.

It was true, Amorisa still wasn't sure what she wanted to do, she had ventured through many tables today, picking up many pamplets and fliers. Hell was a third year even supposed to know what they wanted to do at this time?

Approaching Lenore, she smiled brightly. "Hi, you work for the Department of Mysteries? That sounds really interesting. What do you do over there?" Amorisa said all smiles

Re: TABLE E: MINISTRY THREE lenore_grey December 23 2006, 00:15:06 UTC

Oh, a hopeful. Well, wandering would just have to wait.

Lenore smiled. She was really going to have to come up with some good rumors to spread about her department. Answering that she couldn't say was just going to get old but for now she'd play nicely. It was too early for real creativity anyway. Another cup or so and she'd be good.

"Oh, plenty of things," she nodded, "unfortunately they're unspeakable, thus the name." Lenore noted the handful of brochures and how very young the girl seemed. Merlin, school was awhile ago. To think that some of the students like this one belonged to her coworkers was an odd touch of reality she choose to ignore- or perhaps save to laugh at later. "Hitting all the booths, I see. Any good ideas yet?"

Re: TABLE E: MINISTRY THREE amorisaamherst December 23 2006, 00:34:09 UTC

Amorisa smiled. "You're an unspeakable?! That's awesome!" Honestly, could their be a job cooler then being an unspeakable? Your job being so top secret that you couldn't even speak about it. It was like being a spy. Wickedly awesome.

Amorisa picked up a brochure and smiled brightly at the woman. "No ideas yet, but then again I'm only a third year, so I don't know how they really expect us to have an idea of what we want to do at the moment."

Re: TABLE E: MINISTRY THREE lenore_grey December 23 2006, 01:07:47 UTC

Lenore tried not to grin too broadly at the girl's enthusiasm. It did sound cool, didn't it? And it was. Lenore could get away with pretty much anything given her position because no one really knew what she did anyway so how were they to question it? Besides, she spent most of her time down in the department and it wasn't as though just anyone could stroll in for a look around.

"Mm, true. And nor should you. Merlin, I think when I was in third year I wanted to chart stars or something bland like that. You've plenty of time to figure it out," she assured.

Re: TABLE E: MINISTRY THREE amorisaamherst December 23 2006, 01:25:37 UTC

"Well I'm glad you think so ma'am. Its tough trying to decide what you want to do in life. But working as an Unspekable in the Minstry does sound quite interesting. Can you atleast tell me the qulifactions one must have for the postion? Or is that top secret too?" Really she may of just found her career choice after all, or at least something in the top five choices for now, atleast. "Is the pay pretty good?"

Re: TABLE E: MINISTRY THREE lenore_grey December 23 2006, 01:59:14 UTC

"Well, the qualifications are all listed on our pamphlet. An aptitude for particular areas of magic are suggested, a keen mind, the ability to keep secrets, that sort of thing." Vague much? Well, what did you expect really. Lenore was rather amused by their recruiting material. It was a wonder anyone joined.

She'd jumped on the opportunity when it had come up, of course.

"It is," Lenore nodded. "As better than some, less than the Minister. I can say that I highly recommend it."

Re: TABLE E: MINISTRY THREE amorisaamherst December 23 2006, 02:26:19 UTC

Amorisa nodded with a bright smile, grateful for the information she had received. The job did sound like a lot of fun, that was for sure. Amorisa could use some fun in her life, she was always to serious. She needed to let loose a little and enjoy life. "Well obviously not as much as the Minister, but money is money," Amorisa said with a smile. "Thank you so much for your help Miss..?" Amorisa couldn't recall if the woman had given her name or not

Re: TABLE E: MINISTRY THREE lenore_grey December 23 2006, 04:45:27 UTC

"Grey," Lenore smiled. She leaned forward and spared one hand from her coffee mug to offer the girl. "Lenore Grey. I'd say if you have any more questions let me know but...well, you understand. Enjoy the rest of the fair, yeah?"

Re: TABLE E: MINISTRY THREE amorisaamherst December 23 2006, 05:03:57 UTC

Amorisa nodded her head, "Ya I understand. Thanks for your time. You enjoy the rest of the fair too, and ah, welcome back to Hogwarts," Amorisa said with a smile before walking off to look around the rest of the fair.

((Amorisa out))

Re: TABLE E: MINISTRY THREE - Dept of Mysteries - Friday Afternoon darianaclaw December 23 2006, 05:33:46 UTC

Dari finally -finally- got up the nerve to head over to the table she REALLY wanted to visit. Alright, so it had taken a bit, which was probably very silly of her, but she couldn't help it! The more she thought about it, the more she very much wanted to be an Unspeakable and.. what if they laughed at her or something.

She made her way over, probably one of the very few students who wasn't holding a bunch of pamphlets, and relaxed considerably as she saw a familiar face. "Lenore! Hi!" she greeted the Unspeakable working the booth as she approached.

Re: TABLE E: MINISTRY THREE - Dept of Mysteries - Friday Afternoon lenore_grey December 23 2006, 07:00:16 UTC

Lenore was surprised to hear her name called- by a girl's voice and a student at that- but when she looked up and spotted Dari she smiled. "Miss Davison!" Well, there was one good reason for showing right there. Lenore had hoped that Dari would come by the booth. She'd seemed quite promising when Reg had brought her by over Christmas break and they'd corresponded a bit in between.

Lenore stood up to greet Dari properly, giving the girl a hug because, well, Lenore was in a good mood. It would be nice to have a quasi serious discussion with one person while she was here and Merlin knew the girl had potential. "Have you been thinking more about that internship this summer then?"

Re: TABLE E: MINISTRY THREE - Dept of Mysteries - Friday Afternoon darianaclaw December 23 2006, 07:07:48 UTC

Dari's nerves kind of vanished when the woman looked happy to see her and then even greeted her with a hug, which she returned with minimum awkwardness.

Then when she mentioned the internship, Dari practically bounced with enthusiasm. She'd been a little afraid to believe the internship was real and that they really wanted her.

"Oh yes.. yes, I would love to.." she bit her lip as she realized how giddy she must sound. And stupid. "I mean, if the offer is still good, it sounds like a wonderful opportunity!"

Re: TABLE E: MINISTRY THREE - Dept of Mysteries - Friday Afternoon lenore_grey December 23 2006, 08:13:39 UTC

Lenore couldn't help but laugh at the girl's nerves- or her enthusiasm. "Of course it's still good," she assured Dari. "I wouldn't tease about something like that. Your background is perfect and I'll absolutely have you if you're interested."

There was something refreshing about talking to a seriously interested party after a day of fielding questions she couldn't answer and making responses up. Alright, the making things up had been fun but still. Lenore was suddenly glad she'd left Ed to his recruiting to come back and check on things here.

Re: TABLE E: MINISTRY THREE - Dept of Mysteries - Friday Afternoon darianaclaw December 23 2006, 15:16:35 UTC

Dari was thrilled, but she managed to get her bouncing under control. She was definitely being a bit spastic and that was not the way to impress one's future boss, was it?

"Oh, I definitely am," she told the woman. "Definitely. I said that already, didn't I?" She laughed a little nervously and took a glance around the room, trying to force herself to calm down.

"I'm surprised they gave you a booth at this thing," she commented, her tone much more normal now. "I mean, you can't actually tell anyone anything. You must be terribly bored." She paused and gave a little laugh. "Then again, I suppose if they gave the socialities a booth." She paused again to roll her eyes. "Nothing should surprise me."

Re: TABLE E: MINISTRY THREE - Dept of Mysteries - Friday Afternoon lenore_grey December 27 2006, 00:38:38 UTC

Bored? Lenore had to smile. "Oh, less so than you would think," she assured. "And you mean you didn't enjoy the ice cream? I've been contemplating abusing their hospitality for the last twenty minutes or so," she said, casting a devious look toward some of her least favorite people. Had any of them chanced to look up Lenore would have given a mocking wave but the socialites were far too interested in the socialites to bother giving her a chance to mock them; all the more reason to go to them. If Lenore got truly bored, she'd do it.

"So, how are classes going?"
