He threw a handful of Floo Powder into his specially one way, once use, Hogwarts Board approved Floo connection to the Board room.

*Crack!*

Harold stepped out of the green flames emitting from the fireplace and brushed a bit of soot off of his jacket. "So sorry, I'm late. Cassandra, Ian...Anastasia." he bowed heads to them each quickly as he took his seat beside the Board President. He simply sat there to watch, he wasn't going to take notes or anything.

He had missed what had just been said but Annie seemed to be holding up alright. He politely took a scone and tea from the House Elf and waiting for the meeting to go on.

"Oi, Mate!" He said with a napkin full of scones. "Sit... Cassandra has things under control... she's conducting the interview." He said and then pointed to the quill that was scribbling on parchment beside him, "I'm taking notes..." He grinned.

I think it would please all of us immensely if you would take some time to sit in on some classes, as you suggested, to see if there is any merit to the sub-par ratings."

It was a shame that in all her self-reflection, the Headmistress didn't see any need to reach out to the Board. Perhaps that was just the lapsed relationship, and so Cassandra spoke again. "As for strengthening security, I'd be happy to go over your plans with you. I suggest we also bring in some experts in that field, at the expense of the Board, obviously. Please don't hesitate to make us one of your primary resources. We can be responsible for providing you with the people and things you need to accomplish the goals you set for yourself."

"Thank you, Nimma. Please convey our appreciation to all the house elves," Cassandra accepted her cup of tea and added a bit of lemon. "No scone for me, but please leave them on the table in case we get peckish."

"Hops, we've already begun," Cassandra pointed out a seat to the man and fixed him with a look. They were most certainly overwhelming poor Anastasia by ALL being there. How odd.

"Annie, what level of intrusion do you feel is appropriate for future interactions with the Board of Governors? How are we making life easier or harder for you now?"

"Oh right... Yes Nimma, thank you... and your colleagues..." He then whispered, "And thanks in advance for getting me that coffee..." HINT HINT...

He put a corner of the scone in his mouth and then took it out immediatly when the president spoke about intrusion. "I'm not sure intrusion is the right word Cassandra... I doubt you, Hops and myself are making her life miserable... no... wait... maybe the words to change in that sentence isn't 'intrusion' but the 'board of governors', as in fact I believe it's the candidates who may be causing an intrusion... is that what you meant?"
