Potioncat slips her key into the lock and carefully opens the
catalogue office door. She's hoping to tiptoe over to her desk,
retrieve her forgotten bag of HP notes, and slip back out. There's no
reason for anyone to be here on a holiday, but you never know what
Miss might be up to, or if Kneasy has come in for a bit of quiet
relection and inebriation.
She's half way across the room when she's startled by loud banging
coming from the brokendown Section machine. "Who's there!" she yells.
"Don't shoot!" Ginger's voice calls out and she stands up, waving a
spanner. (Potioncat doesn't know what a spanner is but someone used
it in a post and it sounds very British.)
"What are you doing here?" they both ask.
"I'm fixing this brokendown Section Machine. What good is it to have
two machines if one of them is brokendown?"
"This is a holiday!"
"Yes, but I'm Management now. And Management Level Individuals often
work on holidays. It's one of the perks."
"That's what Miss told you, isn't it?" Potioncat asked, knowingly.
"Yes it is. So, have you come in for your assignment? Very good! I'll
be sure this is mentioned on your next evaluation. For non-management
types to be working on holiday looks very good!"
"No, actually, I just came in for some notes...I have teenagers you
know, couldn't possibly work on a holiday..."
Ginger frowns and Potioncat decides to change the subject. "What did
you think of that great event in chapter____________ and
then_______________________but the ___________and..." Potioncat pauses
Ginger is really frowning now."Good, our anti-spoiler spells are
working. Unfortunately this must go on your next evaluation as
well...Now, which section did you want?"
"Uh, I'll take Magical Items 3.8.6--3.8.6.9, if no one else has
it...but I can't start right away. Teenagers, you know..."
