Summary: Xavier examines the new statue in the Atrium.
Completion: Complete

Stepping away from the Apparation point, Xavier glanced around the Atrium. A large mass in the center had him curious. They'd replaced the statue finally, it seemed. The gaping hole had seemed odd to him, though he didn't miss the awful statue in the least.

Briefcase in hand, he strode toward the new artwork. It was certainly gathering enough attention and once he elbowed his way through the crowd to the front he saw why. Taking in the witch and wizard - both in very fine robes, he noted - he had to smile faintly at the 'Magic is Might' emblazoned along the base. Indeed, it was, and too few people realized it.

His eyes flickered to what the witch and wizard were sitting on. While he didn't care for the nudity (he could live his entire life without seeing a Muggle or Mudblood naked, thank you), he did share the sentiment. Once the wizarding world was brought to heel, he hoped the Dark Lord would authorize turning their sights to the Muggles.

It appeared, judging from the shocked whispers, the gasps, the horrified eyes, that not everyone agreed with him, however. He turned, taking note of the names, and when he didn't know the names (more often than not), the faces. They'd be ones to keep an eye upon. And the sooner these fools realized who was in charge in the world, the better it would all be.

	Gawain sometimes wondered how Tonks had managed to get this far in life without getting herself killed. Of course, Savage and Weasley didn't look any better. They hadn't lived through the first war, he reminded himself. "It's the new statue, Auror Tonks," he said crisply, giving each of them a look in turn. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"It's disgusting." Gray spat out now that speech had been returned to her. "Wizards aren't conquering heroes and muggles aren't beasts. Why would anyone put up something this sick?" It galled Gray that the Ministry would approve of something like this in public. Had the world lost it's mind?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"I don't think this is the appropriate place for this discussion," Gawain said, eyeing first her and then Tonks before his gaze flickered to Weasley. None of them looked all that steady. Merlin help them all.

"Come - we need to get to work," he said firmly, gesturing for them to precede him to the lift.

He could feel eyes on them and he turned, seeing Xavier Selwyn looking at him. That one wasn't to be trusted. He nodded at the other wizard briefly before looking back at the younger people.

Gray sighed and nodded, she wasn't in a position to loose her job and bad mouthing the ministry in front of witnesses would do just that. The ways things were going she would end up in Azkaban or something.

She followed Robards into the lift with Tonks. There was a man looking at him but it was creepy and she couldn't help but shudder.

"Are things going to get worse sir?"

	Gawain let the witches precede him, and he also paused to let Weasley get in as well. Once the doors shut, he relaxed slightly since they were the only ones in the lift. He frowned, waiting a moment before nodding. "It certainly seems that way, Savage." (Reply to this) (Parent)
