First Petal

It has come to the Ministry's, and therefore my, attention that Hogwarts is in need of some... Assistance. Given the Headmaster's unfortunate inability to keep things under control at camp and even now under his very own roof, the Ministry has seen fit to appoint me High Inquisitor.

I can assure you that this is a very good thing, despite what you may be thinking and on behalf of the Ministry I would like to formally apologize for the events at camp. It is unfortunate that his carelessness would result in such an unfortunate occurrence. I can assure you that while I'm here, none of you will get so out of control.

You may have heard that it was dark magic responsible, but I can promise you that this was a lie made up only to justify a few rowdy teenagers. This will not be tolerated while I'm here, believe me. Everyone's safety is of my utmost concern, and it's up to me to prune the thorny hedges and keep everything nice and orderly.

With that said, I do not tolerate disobedience of any kind, and if I catch any kind of behaviour like what was displayed at camp, the consequences will be severe. This is the only warning I am going to give anyone. I fully expect to get along with every student here, however, so do not let my faith go unrewarded.

Finally, along with my position as High Inquisitor, I have also been appointed Herbology Professor. But considering the importance of the position, it would be best for you to refer to me as Inquisitor Snow rather than Professor.

Inquistor I kindly ask you to leave my sister alone. That was uncalled for she has done nothing to you. Whatever irritation I have caused you I ask you not to take it out on her.

[drivensnow]

This is between her and I. Perhaps you should not stick your nose where it does not belong.

[arachnoble]

Perhaps you should watch what you say, lest people think you're threatening students.

[drivensnow]

There is a difference between warning and threatening, and I am just giving her fair warning.

[arachnoble]

I see. How could I not know that mentioning losing more body parts is necessary? I must be so foolish.

[drivensnow]

I was referring to the fact last time she got out of control, it was another student who put her eye out. I was not implying that I would be the one to do it.

[arachnoble]

Due to no fault of her own.

Except you're incapable of believing truth and are just going to keep turning the rest of Hogwarts against you.

[drivensnow]

I fail to see how it isn't her fault. She got out of control, there is no other explanation aside from desperate attempts at excuses.

[arachnoble]

You don't know Vriska. You weren't there when it happened, and you keep refusing to acknowledge the Ministry is lying about their findings. It's just going to backfire and you're going to look like a fool.

[dou8letrou8le]

I don't want things to get worse.

[private]

[arachnoble]

Things are going to get worse regardless of what we say or do.

He's threatened to deport me, and I'm not going to let him use threats to control me.

[private]

[dou8letrou8le]

He
What
8ut

Will I go with you if he deports you?

[private]

[arachnoble]

If you wish. I could let you continue with your studies, but I wouldn't be happy leaving you here with him.

[private]

[dou8letrou8le]

I don't care what happens just
don't leave me [Oops she didn't cross that out fast enough.]

[private]

[arachnoble]

I won't leave you. Ever.

[arachnoble]

Vriska. Listen to me - you and I and everyone else know that you weren't yourself. We know that there was something sinister going on.

This is not your fault.

[drivensnow]

The Ministry is not lying. If you continue to suggest so, my earlier threat will be more than just that.

[arachnoble]

And now everyone else can see you've been making threats.

[TAKE THAT, SNOW.]

[drivensnow]

[He goes back and makes it private.

Shut up or he will have you deported.]

[taleweaving]

My sister is part of my business. This I think my nose is fine where it is. Family unity is a thing to be cherished is it not?

[drivensnow]

Detention, Miss Serket. It is your job to dig up the ground outside of the greenhouses by hand and make it suitable for planting. No magic.

[taleweaving]

Very well. Perhaps we can continue our discussion then.
