She had been perfectly content with observing, but when people ran their mouths on matters they didn't understand... well... it was only her civic duty to perhaps stir the pot a little, or, 'inform'.

"And what if their location had reached the ears of anyone who meant to cause harm? What if someone slipped up and exposed the magical world? Accidently dropped a file somewhere?" She'd seen how careless certain people in the department could be. Any number of things could've happened.

Did Carter hear what she was saying? "And how is that any different to any other secured establishment or facility which contains government or otherwise important documentation and the like? How is it different to you dropping a folder on your way to an appointment or debrief? How is it any different to any of our kind who let slip our existence and expose the magical world?" Hhhhmmm? No really, she wanted to know. She asked many questions, yes, but it all boiled down to one thing in the end, and that was that location wasn't what made a place secure, it was the people running it.

"I would have thought you of all people, Ms Carter, would understand the value of the Department of Accidents and Catastrophes and entrust them to carry out their duties in managing any such issues should they arise, because of course, they do..." It was a thing that happened, and though it wasn't something to be openly accepted, issues concerning the statute of secrecy have been managed remarkably well over the years. "Wards, repelling charms... well, I should have to explain to you the task of securing a premises from wandering eyes and ears. But if you think it an impossible task, then perhaps you may want to consider brushing up on how to manage a department before you take on a Ministry in its entirety."

Was that too much? Emily wasn't fazed, if Carter was to be elected it would be good to know the woman could handle criticism and remain cool under pressure. Headless chooks didn't make great leaders last she checked. Though, judging by the tone she took with Branxton, the woman was already cracking. Excellent Auror material right there. Bennett too with wise and informative words. And so THIS is what she loved about MLE, such a family feel to the team.
