It had been a hell of a week. Actually, on consideration it had been a hell of a month - even a hell of a year. Ever since her unfortunate bout of Vanishing Sickness, Lucy had been scrambling to keep her life together. She'd been seriously considering a move back to the wizarding world for some time - but Monday had been the catalyst. She'd have preferred to do it all more slowly, think out her options, make sure she had a job and a place to live before quitting but it become more and more difficult to maintain two lives and when she'd quit on the spur of the moment on Monday afternoon, she'd only felt the relief of having finally faced the inevitable. And as it turned out, it looked like things were falling into place more quickly than she'd have thought possible. Susan had a spare room - more than just a room, really, which Lucy was still trying to wrap her head around - and she'd had offers of help with the job situation from Alicia and Susan, as well as Rich.
Her biggest concern now was how much magic she'd be expected to do during the course of her work in the wizarding world. Simple spells worked sometimes, more complicated ones hardly ever. She doubted she'd be able to work at the Fawley Foundation under those circumstances, and was hesitant about employment with the ministry which had never been all that supportive. International Exports was a different matter. They had a fax machine, actual muggle technology, which Lucy hoped would mean the office was run more on electricity than magic. Leaving magic out of it, her qualifications were good - she was organised, cheerful, financially savvy and great at anything numbers-related. She'd dressed in her 'interview suit', just to make a good impression, and she arrived a little after half one at the address Rich had given her. After checking in with the receptionist she was told to wait.
