Biography: (300 words minimum.)
"A man of innovation and genius, success in the Ministry and familial connections has not granted him the social graces to be fully accepted into the high social society of today, and he is often ostracized for his quirky manner and controversial leadership."
The Secretary choked over the words as she read from the column. She had only been working in the office a few days, and was completely unsure with what to expect how her boss might find the words.
She took a gulp as she read ahead a moment, then continued reading the article out loud.
"Therefore, to many in the Ministry, Van Droombeeld often comes across as needy and bizarre, when in fact, it would seem he is only seeking friendship from others."
"Thats enough - thats enough. Thank you Pond."
He snatched the paper from the girls hands.
"Actually Sir. I-Its Stevens."
With out bothering to look from the paper, he nodded to him self as he spoke.
"After I was able to cut spending by 15% and I was able to up the employment rate by 3% last quarter... This is the damn article they write? A personal piece? Making me sound like a child? Did you pick up my muggle comic books this morning? Go get me a chocolate milk with rum."
Slumping back in his high-backed polished leather chair, he sighed shooing Pond away. He sat like this a few minutes before he childishly started scribbling a letter complaining to his father, the Senator of New York.
Roleplay Response:
It had been a long long night, but it was nice out that night. So Robert chose to walk home through the park. It was only a short walk any way.
He arrived home only five minutes after leaving his office. Body guard by his side. He really did not need a body guard. He had never even received a single threatening letter, but it made him feel important. So he hired one and kept him close.
Robert was handing his cloak to the maid when he felt a sharp tug on the bottom of his robes.
"I'm lost and it's dark and I wanted to know where I am but I'm not scared but I am worried that Sambundeakin is scared because he's little and needs something to eat and wants to go home."
Robert blinked down at the little girl.
"A child..."
He looked over at his bodyguard, then to the maid, while pointing down at the girl. The child made him nervous. He had no experience with children. Even though he grew up on the large Westchester estate, surrounded by his family, and there always being lots of children running around. They made him nervous, yes.
"Look... Its a child. Here. In my entry way... A child."
"He misses my and his mommy."
Robert looked at the puff in the girls hand. Still unsure what to do, or what to say at it.
"Its a child with a puffskin... In my entry."
The maid and the bodyguard looked at each other, not knowing what they should do. Robert looked back towards them.
"What do we... uhh... do with it?"
