"I don't know who they chose for head girl this year. I wasn't sure they'd even have a head boy as it seems they're cutting back on that. I'm not sure why as the students are getting any more well behaved," he replied, temporarily lost in thought about that. Why had they been choosing just one lately? Why get rid of the head girl and boy and resort to just prefects?
Flavia crossed her arms, she almost started tapping her foot. Unlike Branxton, she stuck to one point. It wasn't that Flavia wasn't clever, simply that her intellect resembled that of a train, strong, but following the rail. And had a tendency to squash anyone in her way. "The students are never well-behaved," she stated. "They simply hide it better than usual." Her voice got a little more severe, as if she was trying to hem in her emotion further when she added, "And the school only chooses two head prefects if they can find two suitable candidates. I suppose you're the best one, and, again, congratulations."
Always correct and proper, was Flavia. She gave Branxton another nod and started down the swaying corridor. Flavia's stomach filled with cold water - but as long as it didn't reach her eyes, that was fine.
