And of course, they all had a lot to say.
Firstly, was the older man, Sherman Clark. He was cute. Seemed nice. But Ember was squinting at him like any of the others. He made a lot of sense. She liked his answer--but she still had quiiiiite a few questions for him. "As a person in the Creatures Department at the ministry, it has definitely come to my attention that not everyone in our...ahem, establishment cares as much about the wellfare for animals as we do--" she met eyes with Harmony. "And--I just wanted to know how you really expect to convince those around you to make the changes that need to be made about creature testing?" she asked..hoping her question made sense. It made sense in her brain. "I mean--your speech to us is quite convincing to ME--but to others who aren't in our same awareness--I just want to know if you really think you can achieve those laws that, as you stated, other countries have."
Because yes, this was important.
Then, she turned to Victoria Culloden. "Same question to you, Ma'am." she said confidently. "How would YOU go about getting your agenda across? Are you both giving us empty promises?" Ember wasn't rude.
But she also wasn't stupid. That was a good question! "Ma'am, part of what I told you about my views on creature testing were opinions, but the other part of it was fact, was it not? It IS scientifically proven that animals do not have the same genetic make up and bodily functions as the human body does, therefore rendering them poor test subjects. It IS widely known that there were mutations that occurred due to testing magical cosmetics on beasts. It IS a fact that creature testing not only hurts animals, but has and will continue to hurt wizards as well. Anyone who doesn't support my views? Let them argue with things that are blatantly true! But with the right evidence to support my case- our case, if you will- all we need is hard work, dedication, and drive. I would encourage my fellow Charms Developers to work on new testing methods that could involve wizard samples instead of creature ones, and I'm sure we'd have the full support of Department Head Ashburry-Hawthorne. A little motivation is all it takes."
