- - - ahoy cap'n

[Sirius Black]

He remembers how things used to be. Work at an ungodly hour, coming in and talking to Marc ... whatever happened to that guy? ... and laughing over good old comradeship. He'd spill coffee or some other mishap in his lap and that was that. Work got done, things happened, and not to brag, but Sirius kind of was one of the best in the department. He loved field work - was born for it. He laughed and grinned, liked keeping everyone's hopes up at some of the most dismal times. He didn't appreciate everyone telling him that 'it'd be ok man. you can do much better than her.' so he took a leave of absence and that as they say is that.

until he came back. he peers down at himself and grins - one of his dorky ones. black pin striped suit, yeah. he's looking kind of dashing. wand in his right hand, he twirls it about, little sparks emitting from the end to depict his good mood. he's really freaking happy right now. single and ready for a night out, this day would go by fairly quickly. or so he hoped.

[Raven Jones]

Work? A foreign subject, having been kidnapped for a few months and then having to take even more time just to heal up.Sure, her boss understood, but Raven was never meant for sitting around doing nothing. It sucked, and it made her think too much about everything. Her first day back was like a breath of fresh air. Granted, they didn't want her to go out into the field just yet, but that didn't matter because she finally got to do something.

Sure, paperwork was rather boring, but it was better than nothing. Thankfully the charm it hide the bruises was working, otherwise she would be sporting a lot of makeup right about now. Regardless of knowing the spells, sometimes it was nice to doll up in front of the mirror. Except right now standing on her bad ankle was rather painful. It was one reason she decided to not wear heels today.

Her outfit was rather tame for once, but it still felt nice to get out of sweats for once. It just sucked not having Pooka around to keep her company. Being locked away in her office doing paperwork meant not interacting with anyone else in her department.

From what she had heard, some things had been going on and there had been some changes. In all honesty, she had no idea other than her and her boss as to who was still there. As long as she kept hers, well, then she was fine with it.

Toeing off her shoes, she winced at moving her ankle too much, leaning over to rub it gently. Looking up, she realized her coffee cup was empty, and frown forming on her face. There was no way she was going to get up, not with her ankle throbbing. Sighing, she grabbed her quill, going back to work.
