Cheesy Mac Reagan saw Elijah's face and it was so adorably priceless that she almost laughed right then and there. Almost. The corners of her lips twitched a bit, but she tried her hardest not to smile and managed fairly well. She asked, "What part of it do you think a legend? I firmly believe the Old Magic played a significant role in his defeat of Voldemort. Now, whether or not that power can be harnessed, I'm not sure. It seems that I've always done pretty poorly at harnessing love; it usually just takes over me and-" Reagan realized she was rambling, and about LOVE no less!
Trying to get back to where she'd intended the conversation to go, Reagan continued, "Even if the legend is not true, I still think that the power of love might be strong enough magic to use as a protection. And even if it does take years, I don't see that as any reason not to try. Every invention needs to start somewhere! Can you imagine if your Department and our Ministry were responsible for creating the most amazing protective gear in the world?
"But beyond that, the reason I think it necessary is to protect our Law Enforcement team and Aurors, and of course, the Minister. Think about all these foreign Ministers who will be coming to our Ministry soon and all the foottraffic that will be coming through the Ministry. All the worry we have to deal with that someone might try to harm our Minister? It would be nice to have the comfort of knowing he was safe..." Reagan trailed off. She didn't know what else to say and was beginning to wonder if she should have even bothered bringing it up in the first place.
