Summary: He's going to like working here...
"Welcome to the ShinRa science division," Dr. Gibson said, and Hojo smiled faintly, in something almost more akin to a smirk.
For a brief moment, what Dr. Gibson had planned to say completely flew out her head, and the first coherent thought she had was, "...I am a pedophile for what I just thought. Hojo is only 23! You're nearly twice his age!"
She coughed delicately. "Sorry, lost my train of thought, there. You will be assigned to the biomedical division, under myself and Dr. Onitsuka. I have nothing but the highest expectations for you!" she said brightly, and vowed to make sure it was mainly Dr. Onitsuka in charge of young Dr. Hojo, before she made a damned fool of herself.
"I look forward to learning all you can teach me," Hojo said smoothly, and damned if that man didn't have the sexiest smirk she had ever seen.
It did not take long for word to spread about one of the science department's newest hires, a young Dr. Hojo, to spread through the secretarial pool. Most of the scientists were older and not of interest, but Hojo, the youngest of the three newest hires in biomed, with is long, dark hair and a smile that made even foul-tempered Dr. Gibson turn bright red, definitely made that division a lot more noteworthy.
For the first time, there was actual competition for who got to deliver anything down to the labs, and more than one secretary had decided that she was going to somehow snag him.
By the time he'd gotten his second love letter and third proposition, and Dr. Gibson seeming very…open to exploring some of his theories when given the right incentive, Hojo thought to himself that he was rather going to enjoy working for ShinRa.
