"That article is hardly an accurate representation of my real article, but I suppose it would be too much to expect the Daily Prophet to read a very technical study published in a specialised journal and be faithful to the original," he said.
"The research is hardly as advenced as they make it sound. If you listened to them, we'll cure lycanthropy tomorrow." Patrick sighed. "I haven't asked you here to rant. I knew something like this would happen. I've worked in the Ministry for too long not to understand how things work. This article makes the Ministry look good, gives hope that everything will be all right. The truth is that this clinic was founded so people didn't have to rely on the Ministry and could have options, but once my research is out there there is little I can do to stop them from using it."
Patrick leaned forward, hands laced together. "This article also makes us a bigger threat. I'm sure those werewolves that have been attacking us don't want to be cured. This makes everyone in here a target. It also means that we will have to rely on the Ministry for protection, which links us to them starting a vicious circle. Given your history, I was hoping for alternatives," he finished.
