Tate felt like they'd chatted about this topic enough for the moment, and he DID have an entire class planned. Moving on. "Let's try to get back to the topic at hand. We could chat all day about Muggles and the Statute, but I have a feeling you're getting enough of that in your other classes."
He gathered himself before continuing. "I want to focus our lesson today on Dark Wizards. You've probably spent time contemplating or studying Dark creatures and spells, as well as defensive and offensive spells, but this is an area that is often sorely neglected. Just to demonstrate that you already know more than you think... name for me some famous Dark wizards. At this point, speculation and rumor IS permitted."
"Depends. My own tail is more important to me than that of some random muggle." And to plenty of girls too, who Jim was quite sure would prefer he escaped any situation with his pretty unscathed. "Besides, most of the people in here wouldn't be allowed to intervene because of an entirely different law." Yeah. Underage magic. Jim glanced briefly to his right at Marie.
Yeah girlfriend, you totally forgot our birthday.
Dark Wizards? He looked at Tate again. Naw. Better not to draw attention to old family ties, right?
"Voldemortist. He's your buddy, right sir?"

We could sit here and argue the validity of one situation to the next... the fact stands that the statute is old... maybe it could be changed, maybe Muggles would persecute us... who knows," she said a bit peeved.
Then as Tate spoke again she nodded her head. THANK YOU! No more Muggle statute talk. Raising her hand she said, "Bellatrix Lestrange." Definitely a Dark witch.
"I have no intention of getting in the way of a dark witch or wizard, and if they're after a muggle -or anyone or anything that isn't me- then thats the perfect chance for me to escape." He grinned. "It isn't about the law, its about survival. Thing is with the statute, as with
anything that makes
my life easier, I'd rather it stick around."

James shut up immediately.
