RP - Journalism is Literature in a hurry Date: October 7, Year One Characters: Katie McLaggen, Salazar Slytherin and Morgana le Fay Location: Putus Manor Warnings: Possibly some intimidation Public/Private: Private Summary: Katie goes to meet with some council members to discuss her paper Status: incomplete
Katie had donned her best robes, nothing too fancy but enough to make her look professional. This was an important meeting and she wasn't going to screw it up by not putting her best foot forward. She wasn't sure exactly who she would be talking to about this. She hoped that they wouldn't be too harsh with their restrictions. She knew that there had to be some. She had never expected the council to just let her start a paper and not oversee it in some way. She really wanted this though and she would find a way to work within- and possibly around- those limitations.
As she followed the house elf down the dark hall, she found herself wishing that she brought Barty along. She couldn't quite yet though. The owl had said she needed approval on her staff. She didn't want to raise the younger man's hopes just to have them dashed but she would certainly be recommending him. She needed help and he had experience.
As the house elf stopped in front of a large wooden door, Katie took a deep breath before she reached out and turned the nob to open it.
