This was what happened last term, the students had tried to warn the teachers that unusual things were going on and they just ignored them. And if repercussions were expected just from making someone a healing potion, then things at this school were worse than she'd thought.

Violet took a gulp of her tea because she couldn't think of what to say and immediately began coughing, because it was too hot to drink quickly. "Well..." she started to say, but was interrupted by another cough, "I hope someone, if they noticed someone else looking ill, could tell hi...could tell that person to go see the Healer or something. Because if everyone gets sick, then we'll really be in trouble this year."
A brief look of alarm crossed Shreya's face as Violet started coughing. Perhaps they would be heading to the Hospital Wing today after all. But no, it seemed as if the tea was just a bit too hot. Shreya waved her wand, swirling a jet of cool air over the teacup to cool it down—just enough for it to be the perfect drinking temperature.

"Yes, I'd hope the same. I do trust you realize the severity of the.....present situation." Shreya knew that she couldn't get into the specifics of the Neo-Alliance with someone as young as a third year. Not to mention that there was likely someone listening in on their conversation. It was strange. The presence of the Inquisitorial Squad had not only censored Shreya's lessons and words, but it somewhat censored her own thoughts. She was even afraid to think about how Rosier was torturing Professor Schmoe behind closed doors...and how she could eventually help the situation. As if she would get in trouble for having the thought cross her mind. "We will do everything we can to keep you safe."

She knew it probably sounded like empty words to the Slytherin. The professors were basically unable to do anything without fear of repercussions. As dreadful as the thought was, it seemed that for now, they were stuck. At least until they could come up with a better plan.

Shreya looked at Violet, her eyes filled with sadness at the realization that she couldn't even help her own students and colleagues.
