A.N. — Reaching drabble 300 feels like I'm on the homestretch, yet there's still two months to go. A reader stated that I understand the characters very well, but yet I struggled to get into this woman's head, I feel. So I went directly against canon for once, but defaulted to a humorous tone.
300. Olympe Maxime
The overarching goal of the Triwizard Tournament was to foster better ties between Europe's magical schools. Still, Beauxbatons headmistress Olympe Maxime wondered how much "international relations" she and Hagrid could get away with before being reprimanded.
Eh, let them see, Olympe thought. She was used to off-color comments about her heritage and size, things outside of her control. Why not receive ridicule for something of her own choice for once? It's not like she was breaking the competition's unofficial mandate, just finding more fun ways to demonstrate levels of closeness. Hagrid, for one, seemed to heartily approve of her methods.
