Dolena Greengrass definitely had a name for herself. Not only because of who her father was or where she worked but because of her actions and behaviors. Andromeda had noticed a pattern with other interns that she had met. No matter what they had to their name, or how confident they were they all seemed to fear the woman. They had a reason for that, of course, or at the very least they had crossed her path in a way that they brought it upon themselves. Really, they only had themselves to blame.
Andromeda willed to stop herself, as those kinds of thoughts were something that the Blacks would have incorporated, and she herself tried so hard to make herself neutral. Was it neutral? Her own behavior, much like Dolena, but in a different scenario, using her skills to get what she wanted - wasn’t any better. Much like her own sisters she would still fight for what she wanted, no matter what cost. So did that mean she hadn’t completely turned the leaf for what she wanted? Was it what she wanted anyway? Though that was the road she didn’t want to go to, yet. A dangerous road that she would cross only when it mattered.
Getting her attention back to the beautiful woman, Andy grinned. “I do not think anyone would even have a thought cross their mind to take anything that is yours. I admire that.” Because her family did not have any male heirs, her father thought them to have their own strength. Though she knew soon, they would be married and then possibly give their strength over to them, Andy wasn’t about that. She liked having her own power far too much. Pressing her lips, her shoulder moved in a shrug. “I would say something clever about that. But honestly, fathers are just…” She put up her hands, waving them in a dismissal action as she rolled her eyes. Daddy issues had to be a very popular subject between the pureblood women.
As Dolena proceeded to write their order, Andromeda took the parchment paper and the quill that she came with and proceeded to read through what she had written down before. “Right, so this is not an active case per se.” The law enforcement liked doing things by the blog, which was why they had lawyers there. But a lot of the times, such as now, they simply looked for reasons to have dealings. Good for the business and good for the side most people were on. There were not too many people with ‘good’ that resided in their offices. At least not enough who lasted. “This will have to be kept under wraps for when they are ready.”
Growing up as the daughter of Hiram Greengrass, with no one around as a buffer after her sister and mother had passed, Dolena had been taught how to survive. Not just survive Hiram, nor life, but the world. The ministry was hardly a challenge for her after her first week. The more time she was there, the more she learned about each person that she came in contact with. When people didn’t play by her rules, she retaliated. When she retaliated, it wasn’t just once. It was until they either left the ministry, or gave into her whims. If neither happened, it simply wasn’t over. That’s the type of person that Dolena was. But, she did it in a way that she didn’t receive any serious consequences. And if they stayed out of her way, off her radar, then they didn’t have anything to worry about. Lest they be muggleborns. But that was a whole different wizarding game.
“I’d be lying if I told you that such things came easily, Andromeda. However, it’s most definitely worth the effort if you haven’t the patience to deal with idiots.” Though, there were still plenty of idiots that attempted to cross her. Others that wanted to know why she wasn’t a full fledged death eater. But, she could wear a sleeveless dress without having to cover up that ghastly mark. Even if she agreed that muggleborns and their kin should perish, just as Allison had. As the younger witch spoke about fathers, Dolena’s stomach attempted to lurch into her throat, as it often did at the thought of the deplorable man. But that wasn’t information that others, Stefan only recently excepted, were privy to. “So long as they line our banks, I haven’t any complaints.” She laughed, as if her father were one of the okay purist men. It was nice to know that Andromeda, and likely her sisters by extension, had Daddy issues, though. That information could be tucked away for later use.
“Of course it isn’t. Just law enforcement digging for information because they haven’t got enough to bag someone.” She commented offhandedly and then blew softly on the parchment to dry the ink, “It happens more often than not. I dig up familial dirt.” Among other things, but that was not up for discussion. She touched the pad of her pointer finger to the ink, and when it didn’t stain her skin, she folded the parchment and pushed it into an envelope. With a quick address on the front, she placed the order into a tray on her desk that was labeled ‘Urgent’ and it whizzed off of her desk to be sent. Finally, her baby blues raised up to meet the pretty witch’s face and she nodded. “They wouldn’t have sent you to me if they questioned my ability to keep a secret, I assure you. But, you’ll have to share the name with me to pull the documents on them.”
