Written Memo

[oh_earwax]

[All teachers will receive a note on their desks, written in Dumbledore's distinctive hand.]

I'd like to see all the staff in the staffroom, if you please. We have a serious matter to discuss.

[Yukimi's note also reads:]

And I'd like to speak with you privately, Kazuhiko. In my office after the meeting, please.

Do you read the journal network very often, Sam?

I, uh, try to stay out of people's business, if that's what you mean.

[ Which is 50% a lie, he keeps tabs on the students and on Dean, but teachers could get him in a nick of trouble... ]

I'm afraid there is, at the moment, a very nasty rumour circling regarding an inappropriate relationship between a teacher and student. That is what I've called you all here to discuss.

[justliketherifle]

Oh, I see. [ Shit. IT BETTER NOT BE DEAN. I-it can't be. He's not that dumb, is he? ]

You say it's a rumor... Does that mean the student hasn't stepped forward?

[oh-earwax.livejournal.com]

No student has stepped forward at this time, no, though there could be many reasons for that.

I would like very much if this whole business were nothing but a rumour.

[justliketherifle]

Yeah, I can imagine. [ Pause. ]

An issue like this has to be dealt with pretty sensitively. I can see why all the staff are involved...

Is the presumed student of age, at least? [ That would be a serious problem if they weren't. ]

[oh-earwax.livejournal.com]

At the moment, we can't know.

[broomscankill.livejournal.com]

I just gotta say, it's not me.

[oh-earwax.livejournal.com]

For that I am certainly thankful. But perhaps that is something that needn't have required clarification, Dean.
