Ichigo walked into the staffroom, a newspaper in hand. He cracked open the pages while he waited for the others on the staff to arrive for their monthly meetings. The last teacher walked in, closing the door after himself with a click. Ichigo set down his paper presently and the meeting began when everyone seated themselves.
A few minutes into the discussions, the teacher sitting to Ichigo's right, David, regarded the words of the muggle newspaper with interest. He pulled the thin pages to himself and read the headline. With a low chuckle, he whispered to Ichigo, "Those muggles have certainly made themselves busy with all this conquest and whatnot. They've made us wizards very anxious to keep ourselves out of the war and notice."
Ichigo let out a quiet, short laugh. "You could say that about this British Empire."
Simply because the currently discussed topic wasn't concerning either of the two men and they were keeping relatively quiet, the others seated around the table didn't call out to them to quiet down.
David continued more seriously, "Do you think we should search for young wizards there and bring them to Hogwarts?"
"No," Ichigo tapped the words on the newspaper as he spoke, "I don't think that would be feasible. Even our fastest owls wouldn't be able to get to these distances without flying for days. If we magiced them to go any faster, they would get ill. Besides, it would be better to build different schools in these parts. The Ministry of Magic will send out scouts to look for magical users and we can send a request to see the results when results arrive."
"Hm."
With that, both men turned back to the discussion.
