Katie grabbed the sandwich she'd made that morning out of the office fridge and wandered over to the vending machines to buy a bag of crisps and a soda with her pocket change before grabbing a chair at one of the four-person round tables scattered around the Daily Prophet's fairly standard staff lunchroom.
It wasn't often she got to sit down and eat - between entertainment scoops and press conferences, not to mention her little spies ala The Birdie - she was usually out of the office during the day and came in later in the afternoon or early in the morning to get her actual writing done. So today, she reveled in it. She said hi to fellow reporters, and reminded herself to stop by Eleanor's desk with an afternoon tea for the young witch on her way back from lunch. She'd been in such a terror since running into... Well, she'd hit a depression, but since reaching out to her friends, and Blaise, she'd been feeling somehow lighter.
And so today, she smiled. She breathed deeply. She'd put on a cute new shade of pink lipstick. And now, she'd eat lunch, not in a rush, not with a frown because she knew she had to eat. And she'd let herself just... be. For a moment, at least.
