Hey folks, I'm sorry for being so MIA the past few days. RL is doing weird things to me so I just kind of had to flow with them. The whole lack of sleep thing caught up with me too and I feel like I'm emerging from hibernation. That's what happens when your workplace messes up your sleep schedule. Anyway, I'm off three days straight starting today (Friday) so I'm free to RP my four with any of yours.

Hello hello! Another modly post from Anna! :)

Ok so the 3rd year Auror graduation ceremony was today. It occurs every January, at the completion of the two weeks of final exams, both written and field work. Just a few things that occurred at the graduation ceremony where Sirius Black & Alice Burke became Aurors:

Moody gave a speech, like he always does, and it was a mix of some new stuff, but mainly just recycled stuff from years past. Older DMLE people would have recognized this. Minister Bagnold was also in attendance, as well as a number of Ministry Department heads, etc. It is up to you if your Ministry character (or spouse of a Ministry character) attended or not, but for all DMLE personnel it is "strongly recommended" that they attend. Basically, people's absences are noted.

The ceremony was held in the atrium, on level 8, so all floo-ing in and out of the Ministry was restricted during the ceremony.

Another thing to note: BOMB was protesting outside of the Ministry again today. They were basically protesting the DMLE's lack of progress on the Christmas Eve massacre (pre-game) and the destruction of various muggle neighborhoods in early January (in-game). Charity Burbage was protesting as a part of BOMB, but she was in a blonde wig, in disguise so she didn't lose her Ministry job. It is also up to you if your character was present at the protest.
