"Oh there are plenty of those in here, Caedwyn." Plenty. He eyed her. If level 2 wasn't secure, did she truly think that D'Isigny wouldn't have made a move on him yet?

"If you want to tell tales though, by all means." He gestured at the door and then eyed her again. Unless she had something else to say?

Did he honestly suggest that she was threatening to throw a hissy and stomp off to the Minister of Magic? It was as if his words about trust were an effusive blanket that extended to everyone aside from here, which normally would bother the people-pleasing side of her. No time for people pleasing today.

"Sir, I might not be willing to jump feet first into this fight without understanding everything that's at stake, but you can trust that I won't betray your confidences. You said at the staff meeting that you put your faith in your department, but in my opinion, that means everyone is contributing toward the common enemy and that one person's word of caution carries as much weight as another's gusto. My experience dictates that you trust those you can, but that you never take for granted that allegiances change." Not that hers had, but if he continued to suggest it, she wouldn't try to change his mind.
