here comes the new boss, definitely not the same as the old boss

[ipseite]

FORM: Crystal.
SENDER: Petrana de Cedoux.
RECIPIENT: Everyone.
WHAT: New boss introduces herself.
WHEN: Now
WHERE: Kirkwall
NOTES: division page!

Good evening - my name is Madame de Cedoux, ( she is not in the habit of giving out her first name, given the blithe tendency of so many to casually throw those around when they have them, ) and henceforth I shall be taking over as head of division for diplomacy from Mssr Trask. All affairs that were previously passing through him, I will now be overseeing; please speak with me if any matters are pressing. I am, as some of you may be aware, from beyond the rifts; I can only allow my work to speak for itself on my readiness for this position.

( She'd considered making this message for the division alone, but given the work - and the fact she's relatively sure at least one of her project leaders is seconded from another division - it's probably better to broadly introduce herself and narrow it down as necessary from there. )

At earliest convenience I would also like to speak with Mademoiselle Bonaventura and Mssr Elris. If I am not in my office, please contact me by crystal to arrange a meeting.

[He laughs at that.]

No matter what world I am in or what time I am, a King I shall remain. These may not be my lands but it is still who I am.

We shall have to agree to disagree.

[conqueredhearts]

Indeed! Something I do not mind in the slightest.

[He sure does seem delighted that they don't agree on this at all. Oh well.]

[ipseite]

The Inquisition has room within it for many perspectives, I've observed.

[conqueredhearts]

As well it should! It is with these many views that we might be able to prosper. If all views were the same then there would never be a reason for betterment.

[ipseite]

It is one benefit of people such as ourselves. We might bring entirely fresh eyes.

( Pivoting neatly away from the entitlements to titles or, for that matter, her given name - and back to the matter at hand. )

[conqueredhearts]

[He's going to be the most obnoxious when he learns your given name. That's all he'll ever call you.]

Often that is what a problem needs when it seems nothing will solve it. It is why I'm pleased they saw our talents and wished to use them.

( It would be nice to say that men who enjoy making women uncomfortable are new to her, but it wouldn't be true. She's equally accustomed to being forced to work with them all the same -

but it is a bit disappointing to be presented with one so quickly, before she's even had a chance to enjoy her role. )

It is my only wish to make myself as useful to these endeavors as I may.

[conqueredhearts]

I think you will do quite well. I don't believe you would have been chosen for this if you were not able to make good use of the role.

[ipseite]

Thank you. I believe that I have much to offer.

[conqueredhearts]

I shall let you continue to get settled in. I have my own matters to attend to as well.

Farewell, my friend. Let us make a beautiful future together.

Best of luck, Mssr. I am easily enough found if I can be of any aid.
