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..."
