“If you don’t mind?” Willow replied after the other’s offer. “Better to be safe than sorry… right?” she added with a sheepish laugh.

“Oh yeah, sure. I totally get it. I can send an intern or an owl this time though. Save some time, will that work?”

“You know how before this, we said we were gonna plan a wild night out and get drunk and have fun?” Layla asked, “Well I need that to happen ASAP. I have so much steam to release from work lately.”

DANTE: Shit! I forgot that I'm related to these people.

DANTE: I go for so long being unaware I have any family and turns out the majority of the people who I do have are fucking evil.

DANTE: Well other then you of course.

DANTE: I'm just at home with the dog, not sure where Lila is though. I've been trying to get a hold of her but she's not good at answering her phone.

LAYLA: Just be glad it's only distantly related and you don't share the name

LAYLA: Glad I'm not part of the majority lol

LAYLA: Maybe she's somewhere without signal. I wouldn't worry until you know for sure

REID: Out of lockdown. Where are you? You aren't in a situation like last time are you? I hope you're not hurt.

LAYLA: Out of lockdown too

LAYLA: I'm at work so Ministry. Nothing's happening here except trying to prevent chaos. Not a Death Eater in sight

LEN: Yeah, I'm downstairs in the shop with Jonah. He locked everything down. It seems to be holding good. We're all okay right now.

LEN: Are you somewhere safe?

LAYLA: Thank god, I'm glad it's secure

LAYLA: I'm at the Ministry, keeping the whole place from collapsing. You know me

LAYLA: Len! You're at home right? Did Jonah initiate lockdown on the shop? Are you guys okay?

Call || Layla & Tommy

LAYLA: [waits for someone to pick up] Tommy, where are you right now? Did you hear what's happening in Diagon Alley? You're not there, are you?

[laylarcwle]

As soon as the lockdown was announced, Layla jumped into action. She knew people would be contacting her department looking for answers that they could not provide. She needed to be ready with replies about how they would know as she did and their loved ones were protected by spells that had been placed on Diagon Alley. She finished off one letter and waved her wand to send it off before looking up from her desk, “Any news?”

DANTE: So this is all pretty fucking crazy.

DANTE: What the actual fuck.

DANTE: Who hurt these people? Cause they seriously must have some issues if they think this is in good nature.

DANTE: Are you okay?

LAYLA: It's more like brainwashing

LAYLA: I think... that's what they tried to do to me anyway

LAYLA: I'm at the ministry so okay as I can be, where are you?

“Should’ve known,” she muttered to herself, tossing aside the newspaper she’d just read. “Death Eaters are like cockroaches, aren’t they? Those fuckers never truly die,” Laurel complained. “So what are you going to do? Doomsday bunker your way out of this or prepare to get your duel on?” 

“Might have helped if they’d arrested them all in the first place,” Layla said, “Or at least kept an eye on the ones who weren’t,” granted, if they’d arrested them all, Layla might not be alive now but if they’d kept an eye on her mother after her father was arrested, they would have known she was up to no good, helping in the escape and trying to indoctrinate her children into the fold.

Meredith couldn’t remember a time when she had been this exhausted. to the fact that she had realized she wasn’t in her own bed, not even her own flat when she had fallen asleep. She suddenly woke with a jolt, heart beating hard in her chest as she looked around the cafe she was in and realizing she was getting some odd looks. Clearing her throat she tried to act natural and looked to the person not far from her, “I don’t suppose you noticed how long I was out for?”

“Hmm?” Layla asked, looking up, “Oh, I’m not sure. I’ve been here for 10 minutes and you were asleep then. Can’t speak for before that though I’m sure not long. I think someone who works here might have woken you up if it’d been longer than that, right?”

marcuscarson​:

“You’d be surprised.” Certainly family wise anyway. His parents were interested in when he was finally going to have children of his own and he didn’t know when that would happen for him, if ever. “I’m also not sure why my employers need to know my age particularly. It doesn’t affect how well I do my job.”

“You know, I wouldn’t be surprised at all actually,” Layla replied, it was how her family dinners used to go, “I mean there’s the whole retirement age thing. I know we’re nowhere near it and it’s not meant to impact if they employ someone or not but they do. Sometimes jobs require a specific demographic too, though perhaps not yours,” she shrugged, “Whatever the reason, there’s probably a valid one,” she wasn’t going to dwell on it much.

calebcresswell​:

“I guess I could try that some time when things really pile up,” he nodded in response. “Thanks for the pointer honestly. We have so many people in each department for a reason after all.”

“Well exactly,” Layla said, “If you don’t give it to an intern, they wouldn’t have any work,” she paused, “You’re welcome.”

“That I am- why? Has he caused you some sort of heartbreak? Do I need to go kick his ass?” Maeve teased, smiling at the other as she explained who she was. “Ah, so you must be Len’s best friend then, I don’t believe we have met.” She commented, taking the others hand and shaking it. “It’s nice to meet you too, Layla. I’m Maeve.”

“Oh no, I love Jonah. He’s great,” Layla replied, smiling, “Yeah, that’s her and no we haven’t so I thought I’d introduce myself,” she paused, “Maeve. That’s a pretty name.”

[laylarcwle]

willcwpicquery​:

“Ah– thank you,” she replied, taking it and looking it over before furrowing a brow. “It doesn’t mention an exact date for when this needs to be sent out by. Should I assume ASAP then?”

“I think ASAP yes,” Layla said, nodding, “But I can confirm it with my boss for you if you like?”

tommygoyle​:

“I won’t. You’ll always know where to find me.” Tommy smiled widely. “Great, what about tomorrow?”

Layla grinned, “Good because you know I’d hunt you down and be your worst nightmare if you decided to disappear on me,” she teased, “I thought you’d never ask. Tomorrow it is.”
