"Oh?" Hal asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Well, if you can provide a resume, and some references, I'll certainly consider you." he told her.

"Admittedly, I AM finding myself in need of a receptionist, as mine is in the process of moving." he admitted with a chuckle. "So this is quite fortuitous." he said further.

"But yes, provide me with an up-to-date resume, and I'll take a look." he promised.

He didn't say anything more, due to wanting to maintain some professionalism about this. She was applying for a job, and he would treat it strictly as such.

"Give me your email." Arryn stated simply.

"Because I have one on my phone at all times." She added with a light smirk.

"And I can most certainly just send it to you now. Or, if you would prefer, allow me to wireless connect to your printer for you to have a physical copy. Entirely your call." She then said

"Ah, very well then." Hal said, grabbing one of his business cards and handing it to her.

"My business email." he told her.

"Need to keep this professional and all." he reasoned.

"And in this age of technology, an emailed resume is fine." he then said. "A physical copy might be needed, just for filing purposes, but for the sake of applying for the position, not needed." he went on.

"So send your resume to that address, with the header 'Application; Receptionist'." he finished.

Arryn acepted the card and quickly sent the email.

"And sent." She told him a matter of a minute later.

"Anyhow, I will get out of your way." She added as she got to her feet.

"I realise that you're quite a busy man." She continued. "And that I'm just taking up your time. The number on my resume is a cell phone, so you can text me as well if you'd so prefer."

Hal looked over to his monitor, and nodded.

"Received." he told her.

"I'll contact you in 3-5 business days." he said further. "Arrange for possible interviews and such." he went on.

"Thank you for your interest in the position." he then said.

"I look forward to potentially speaking with you later."

"I'll keep an eye and ear out for it." Arryn said with a smile before bidding him farewell and heading off. She did hope that she'd hear from him, if only just because of the fact that it would hlep. For the moment, she was unemployed after all.

"well then, I suppose all I can do is wait and see what happens." She mutteredf as she made her way through the building, making sure to follow the map that she learned was on the walls.

The last thing she wanted, was to end up lost in there, after all.

Sure enough, about 3 days later, she was called up, and an interview was scheduled. Overall, it went fairly well, and she felt confident. Her confidence started to wane a little when another week went by, but she was called in once more.

She made her way to his office again, and when she was there, he beckoned for her to sit down.

"Apologies for taking this long." he said. "Had a sudden influx of some resumes, and had a few other interviews to go through." he explained.

"However, I've called you in this morning, to say that you've stood head and shoulders among your fellow applicants." he then said.

"Congratulations. You're hired."

Arryn just chuckled lightly.

"Good to know." She said simply.

"And thank you." She added."I most certainly appreciate this."

"Let's get the paperwork out of the way"

"Indeed." Hal responded, handing her a few papers.

"Read these over." he told her. "Standard procedure and such. These are more general for working here, and we'll make our way to the more specific ones." he continued.

"Oh, and your starting wage is $21 an hour." he then said. "Time-and-a-half for overtime, Double-time for holidays." he went on. "Figured I should... get that out of the way." he reasoned.

"Regardless, we'll get these signed, and we'll iron out a first day for you."

"Good to know." Arryn commented as she started to flip through and sign where she needed to, along with overall filling out various sections.

"I wasn't worried about it though, if I'm honest." She added after a few seconds.

"However, I ain't gonna complain with that rate either."

"Annual cost-of-living increases are a thing, of course." Hal told her.

"And you get a signing bonus." he then said. "All new employees get it." he went on.

"We'll need to potentially work out banking information and such, but for now, the paperwork." he continued, as she went through a few more papers.

As she did so, he sighed internally, in relief.

He hoped she would turn out well. She seemed to have the right attitude, and all the necessary skills. If anything, she might be the best receptionist that this place had ever seen. But only time would tell.

It took a little bit to finish up all the paperwork, and once she was done in there, had everything that needed to be done, done, and had the appropriate ID's, she left Hal's office with a chuckle. She wasn't surprised she was called back, and was most definitely thrilled.

Using the maps, she made her way down to the lab and knocked on the door, hoping that someone was in. If not, she'd go stop by the Medwing, although she wanted to speak with someone here, and someone one of the medics. She had something for the both of them, and wasn't sure which she said she'd bring by...

Whens he saw Ilias approaching the door, she waved.

"Hey there." She said with a smile.

"I'm not actually meaning to pull you away for long." She continued as she withdrew a book from her messenger bag.

"I just wanted to bring this by. In case you wanted more information on what is actually known about what you are." She told him as she held the book out for him to take.

"Oh, hey." Ilias responded as he opened the door for her and accepted the book. He looked at the cover, the spine, and the title, before nodding slightly.

"Wow." he said. "This seems like a pretty old book, but it's in remarkable condition." he commented. "I shall treat this with the utmost of respect." he assured her further.

"Thank you." he then said, before it clicked that she was HERE.

"Did you come here JUST to give me this?" he asked.

"Can't be." he chuckled. "Had some other business to get done around here?" he asked further.

Arryn just chuckled.

"No, I really didn't." She answered.

"I knew that I was coming by though, and figured I'd bring the book for you." She told him honestly.

"Same with the 2 for the medic who can see life. Literally." She added.

"Figured I'm here, might as well."

"Oh?" Ilias asked.

"Well, all right then." he said.

"Glad things have aligned for you, then." he chuckled.

"Good to see you're doing well, too." he commented.

"I know we briefly saw each other after you were cured, but still. Good that there were no unforeseen side effects or anything." he went on.

"Feel good as new?" he asked. "No lingers stiffness or soreness?"

"there is a little, yes, but that's getting better each day as well." Arryn told him honestly.

"Thank you... Just so much. Let me buy you dinner in the future as a thank you. I'm sure we'll see plenty of each other so claim it st any time." she added after a few seconds.

"For now, I won't keep you from your work."

Ilias looked a little confused.

"Well, good to hear you're continuing to improve." he said.

"And... I won't say no to a thank-you dinner, but... what do you mean by seeing plenty of each other?" he asked.

"Do you live nearby?" he asked.

"Planning on visiting here often?"

"Receptionist for the boss man."

"Oh!" Ilias exclaimed.

"...THANK you." he then said.

"He was running himself ragged doing all that work, and both Kiah and his daughter were starting to worry a little about him." he admitted.

"You'll be a lifesaver." he continued.

"Just... yeah. You'll be just what this place needs." he went on, pausing and sighing.

"...you never know JUST how important or pivotal an administrative position is until you don't have them any longer, sometimes..."

Arryn just laughed lightly.

"Trust me, the little I've seen of him, I could see it." She told him simply. "And yeah, I know. I've gone to both college and university for this."

"Small establishments can work quite nicely without, but ... somewhere of this size? You need someone to help out. IT's basically required."

"So I'm filling that role." She finished with, with a chuckle.

"Anyway! I'm going to get out of your hair and deliver the books to ... I want to say Nathan?" She paused here before shrugging.

"The one who can literally see someone's life."
