RP: Workplace Run-In Who: Lucy and Jaimeson What: They were bound to run into one another at work eventually... When: 6 August 2027 Where: The Ministry, lunchroom balcony Warnings: None Completion Status: Complete
Work had been going particularly well over the last month, though Lucy fully believed it was due to her own diligence and had absolutely nothing to do with the burst of social she indulged in at the Literacy Flourishes Charity Gala. Being someone who rarely indulged in more than the occasional glass of wine, drinking the way she had that night had loosened her up, paving the way for her to embrace the carnal desires she so often kept a tight lid on.
Thankfully, it seemed that her libido was locked away again as it was supposed to be, and she was bringing her A game at work. With any luck, she'd get her promotion from Apprentice by Halloween.
In the meantime, she was still stuck doing the grunt work for her office, which meant she'd spent the morning editing documents and running them between offices. By lunchtime, she was more than ready for fresh air. She hooked the strap of her bag over her forearm, adjusted her blouse, and made her way to the lunchroom, though she didn't stop at her usual table. She opened the door to go out on the balcony, hoping it was late enough in the day she'd be able to get a table outside.
When she did find an empty table, she beelined right for it, slipping into a chair and opening her bag to pull out her lunch--a large, bright salad with grilled chicken and a drizzle of dressing. On a whim, she pulled her phone out, tucked one earbud in, and queued up the song that had popped into her head as she breathed in the fresh air: Cover Me in Sunshine by Pink.
