    Ways To Meet Men 101

    Love and her family had been delighted to find that some of her memories were weaving back into the fabric that was her brain. Granted, it only seemed to go up to a few years ago but it was progress. It was also enough for Love to feel more comfortable about calling on the friends that she had somewhat neglected due to not having a great number of their shared memories.

    She remembered where Miss NPCLady lived and had even made plans to visit with her. Of course, Love didn't currently recall that her friend had since moved to Hogsmeade so it was to her friends previous London residence that she went to.

    Her chaperone bundling against the warmth behind her, Love knocked on the door, the cold nipping at her cheeks as she waited for someone to answer. Once the butler had, they were shown into a parlor that was both familiar.. and not. The decor was quite different and not at all whats he remembered the NPC family's taste to be like.

    Zian's work as a liaison didn't always keep him confined within the walls of the Ministry. That was where many of his meetings took place and where his main office was, but some parts of his work - the parts that necessitated a more personal touch - had to be done from home. At present, he was organizing a dinner for some Chinese delegates and select members of his department which required a great deal of coordinating with his servants. It was utterly exhausting and he had to wonder how people who made a business of hosting events managed.

    He was in the process of sorting out the seating arrangements when his butler came in to inform him that he had a visitor - an unfamiliar young lady. Zian couldn't recall scheduling any meetings for today, but with all he'd been doing, it was possible he'd forgotten about the decorator or caterer or something entirely unrelated to the dinner. After quickly making sure he was decent, he headed down to the parlor to greet his guest.

    There, he was faced with a rather striking woman and her chaperone. His confusion compounded since he wasn't in the habit of doing business with women of an age where they still required another's company. "Greetings, Miss," he started, feeling a bit awkward. "Are you ... here about the dinner?"

    zian's accent is a hybrid of many and can be difficult to place.
