"What does the Minister say about it? She circumvented the governors to put me into place in the first place." That wasn't a yes or no. It was merely acknowledgment that this was an interesting proposition.

Antigone smiled right back at the man and said, "I am indeed shaking you HEADMASTER. You apparently needed someone to do it." She looked the man over, my he looked as though he had been put through the ringer. "Can I offer you something to drink?" she asked as she got up and made her way behind her desk. She kept a small bottle of firewhisky in a drawer of her desk for moments such as these.

"The Minister? Well, I AM the Head of Magical Education, sir, it is MY job to see to it that those children's best interests are served and I think that you are the one for the job. Besides, the Minister and I have corresponded and she has already given her approval in writing, Tate. The Governors... well if they have anything to say I will deal with them personally," she said in a matter of fact voice, but wore a crooked little grin as she pulled the bottle from her desk and conjured two glasses.
