Without a knock or much of anything Minerva McGonagall enters the Headmaster's office looking less than pleased. Actually she looks quite agitated. The Headmaster looks up at her, a bit surprised at her sudden entrance. "Hello Minerva, you don't look pleased…" He smiles the familiar spark in his eyes.

"Albus, this collaring business is getting out of hand."

"How so? The children seem to be having fun…"

"Having fun Albus? The boys walk around like bits of property, the girls, especially the two Slytherins, are always making trouble. You cannot tell me that this is okay!"

"I trust the Head Girl is making nothing that will get her, or her sidekick, into too much trouble with the law and technically neither is breaking any rules…but I don't see the harm in calling other Heads into opinion on this."

Gathered around the round table are the Headmaster and three concerned head of houses. Dumbledore meets each of their eyes, Snape looks calm but paranoia is set in his eyes, McGonagall's features are still etched with agitation, and Professor Sprout looks more than a little confused. Flitwick however is not in attendance.

"Severus, Minerva, you can bring up your cases in whichever order you wish, but explaining things to Pomona may be nice." Minerva stands and speaks first.

"Well it seems like the Head Girl and her little protégé thought it would be fun to claim ownership on their boys with collars and tags, but as of late they have been matching others up as well it seems…"

She places a tye-dye collar onto the table with tags included; Dumbledore takes the collar and reads the tag. A smile on his face he nods to Severus to speak his bit.

"… yes they have taken it up upon themselves to match the teachers up as well it seems."

He removes the collar from his cloak pocket and places it before the Herbology teacher. He looks at the object with disgust as she picks up the bright, sunshine yellow collar and reads the tag…

"Oh my…"

Just then the door opens and Flitwick enters, a purple collar about his neck, including tags.

"Oh… have any of you seen Sybill?"
