"Sir? I am your MINISTER, Student." Lord Borr urged his litter on quickly, before the young man could start groveling or sniveling. Lord Borr had taught his lesson and he expected the RAVENCLAW to learn quickly.
"You are welcome. Put it on, put it on! Show your Ministry pride!"
"I'm sure it is an honor for you! As busy and important as I am ALL THE TIME, I made special time for you, the poor students of Hogwarts. I know you all need a role model and someone to look up to in this leader-less environment."
"I remember YOU," Lord Borr chuckled at the young girl. "Lord Borr never forgets a face!"
"I see," Lord Borr motioned for his litter to be placed front and center and in the process, unbeknownst to him he knocked two snowmen to the ground. "I cannot stay long. The Ministry keeps me very busy and I AM the Minister," he chuckled. "I will not serve myself, foolish woman. Am I to come all this way, INSPIRE your students, GUIDE their lives, JUDGE their creations, AND FEED MYSELF? That's the problem with you Hogwarts Professors. The whole lot of you are LAZY."
With that, Lord Borr used his cane to point out the winners to his house elf cavalry, and they related the winners to the Professor "in charge" of the event.
"Someone have that Groundskeeper come and clean this place up! WORTHLESS, that one. You all remember that! If you don't do well in school and are LAZY, you'll end up a worthless groundskeeper! But if you keep your focus and get yourself a GOOD role model, you could end up JUST LIKE ME!" Lord Borr whacked a nearby snowman in the head and the top tier rolled away.
From what had started out as a lovely, charming, delightful event, very quickly became a living nightmare.
0_______________0 Bouncing Blueberries!
Poor Gemma! Poor Chad! .... Seren could hardly believe what she was hearing. Was the Minister off his rocker? Or perhaps the power had literally gone to his head and eaten what was left of his sense, leaving behind that parasite which clearly urged him to eat more than was necessary.
If there was one thing Seren did NOT like... it was poor manners. Rude bahaviour!! and a clear disrespect for others!!! Especially when it concerned her colleagues, friends and family.
Shoving her hands deep into the pockets of her coats, she crossed her fingers and wished and hoped with all her might that he wouldn't upset or offend any of the students.
