Though she heard the knock when it happened, there was a very long pause before there was any response. Alecto straightened her robes and made sure her hair was perfectly in place atop her head before she responded. "You may enter," came the cool, hard voice from behind the door.
The Muggle Studies room had already undergone massive changes since she had moved in. The walls of the room were lined with posters detailing the atrocities of many throughout history; Hitler had a prominent place, as did the British colonization of India, a picture of the atomic bomb over Hiroshima...
Dressed in robes of black velvet that were up to her neck, Alecto stood and revealed how form fitting they were despite how much they covered up. She glanced down at papers on her desk as if consulting them. "Miss, Fawcett, is it?" she inquired. "Come," she ordered. "Sit." She gestured to a chair in front of her desk.
Alecto sat back down. "You have enrolled in Muggle Studies this year, is that correct?" she asked, already knowing the answer to the question but wanting to see how she responded.
