RP: Working on a Weekend
Date: 29 August 1997
Characters: Bill Weasley, Xavier Selwyn
Location: Gringotts
Status: Private
Summary: The goblins have summoned Bill to deal with another Ministry official.
Completion: Complete

Bill hadn't worked on a Saturday in years. Not since Peru really. But when the goblins summoned, you came. Without question. All he knew was that they wanted him to deal with yet another Ministry official. He wasn't sure about what, but it couldn't be good.

He Apparated to the bank and went to his office for a few minutes, damned if he was going to be on time to meet with anyone from the joke-of-a-Ministry they now had.

	"I was told that wards were your expertise, Mr. Weasley," he said coolly. "You're adept at breaking curses, aren't you? It should be quite similar, I would think." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It seemed he'd gotten under Selwyn's skin a bit. "Yes, but the area outside the bank isn't under Gringott's control. I'm not certain I have the authority to place it under wards." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"You do if you're doing it at the Ministry's behest." If he wasn't such a Mugglelover like this father, Xavier would think he was angling for money. Well, it couldn't hurt to offer. "We would, of course, compensate you for your time and energy. Quite handsomely." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Only a bloke like Selwyn and his ilk would think that money was the answer. Although how ironic it would be to take the Ministry's money and funnel it to the Order. "In that case..." Bill nodded. "I'm not certain we could even do it. Such a public place and all with loads of passersby. But I'll look into it." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Xavier didn't show his surprise when Weasley accepted his offer. He wasn't sure if the other wizard had said yes out of greed or in belief that he could get the money without doing the work. "Excellent. I'll expect an owl from you within the week, then, updating me on your progress." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Absolutely," Bill said. He'd need to confer with Fleur and his father before he made a final decision. Might be a good idea to talk to the goblins too about their real feelings about this. "And if you'll excuse me, I have a few other things to attend to." Selwyn could find his own way out no doubt. (Reply to this) (Parent)
