Zinnia Fog, Ministry Lead Investigator Temp-play by Hollywood Heidi
"Mmhmm," she said in plain acknowledgment that did not give away her opinion on how truthful or not she felt his response was. By her observations so far, the dash of unsureness with which Miss Novak allowed Mr. Boyle to take this into his own hands, had spoken of a newly born trust. Her intuition was telling her that Miss Novak's situation might be just as new to Mr. Boyle as it was to Zinnia, and that it was the conveniently absent Headmaster Ogden who had a better understanding of what was going on; and who hadn't bothered enlightening the person he'd placed in charge during his absence.
Zinnia's eyes flitted down to her paper at Anya's date of birth to do the quick calculation. "Six years in the Muggle world and no detection of magic?" she said rhetorically in disbelief. "Highly unusual, is it not?" In other words, she did not believe it because it just wasn't possible. Not in the vast history of their world.
Perhaps Miss Novak had been using it in small enough quantities as to not be detected by the Ministry's detection of use of underage magic. But the incident at Hogsmeade sounded very much like an Obscurial losing control. New systems set in place long ago have prevented children from becoming possessed by the Obscurus parasite for nearly a century now. The knowledge of them had mostly become lost to history so it was very plausible that any invisible or nearly invisible destructive winds had been written off as weather related. Zinnia would look into any incidents of them in Anya's known locations of the Muggle world.
Again, she did not expect an answer as she knew she was not getting information from someone who was clearly protecting Miss Novak. But she voiced her thoughts in hopes of getting him to look beyond his stubbornness. His vigilance in protecting the girl might be keeping him from looking deeper into her situation with an objective eye, and therefore, blinding him from a potentially greater threat that the girl might pose, as the unusual event at Hogsmeade may have hinted at.
"Did Miss Novak ever receive a Hogwarts Acceptance letter?" she asked pointedly. Something he might not have learned yet from the girl, but since he insisted on speaking on her behalf, she would ask her questions, again, in hopes of giving him more to consider and to at least, find out for himself. Even if someone had made the attempt to withhold the letter from her, the system was far more tenacious in getting the letter to a student than any person could be in withholding it. "The Quill of Acceptance's sensitivity, coupled with the Book's implacability, has never made a mistake," she reminded. "Their spells are infallible. Did you, or Headmaster Ogden, check the Book of Acceptance's records from six years ago to see if her name had been added?"
Now she did wait for a response, though she felt she was just offering more for him to consider and look into. Zinnia did not even consider the possibility of Miss Novak's name being added more recently as never, in all the history of their world, had someone come into magic at a later age.

"Six years in the Muggle world and no detection of magic?""Highly unusual, is it not?"
Severus shrugged slightly, in a very Snape way of showing only a fast, temporary movement. "I find it not so unusual. Our students come to us from all kinds of situations, some familiar with the magical world and some not, some with great magical talent, and still others even unable to tie their shoes properly." He turned his attention back to something lying on the desk, even writing things done as if he wasn't expecting an answer or rather more questions, simply as if he was finished here, not interested in any further conversation.
"Did Miss Novak ever receive a Hogwarts Acceptance letter?"
He looked back up at her, yet only slightly, still uninterested.
"The Quill of Acceptance's sensitivity, coupled with the Book's implacability, has never made a mistake,""Their spells are infallible. Did you, or Headmaster Ogden, check the Book of Acceptance's records from six years ago to see if her name had been added?"
"I doubt.. that anything really is infallible," Severus made her wonder in a bitter tone that still sounded arrogant, yet especially uncooperative. Only in mind, he added Or how else is it possible that Voldemort had managed to sneak into Hogwarts more than once, with walls and protecting spells all around, once declared as such as well? "But I can get genned up on that if it's really that important," Severus added with ridicule again, his eyes clearly saying that, in them, it wasn't.

Zinnia Fog, Ministry Lead Investigator Temp-play by Hollywood Heidi
"Mmhmm." Was all she said again tonelessly. He continued to defiantly counter every statement she made, no matter how strong the facts were in her favor. The man was more stubborn than a hippogriff. At least when you gave them a show of respect, they gave it in return, but she had a feeling no amount of bowing would make this Headmaster stand-in any more amenable.
The events of today were too new for her to have obtained the proper clearances to search and question at her will, but even still, most people tended to cooperate when faced with a person of her station. This one, however, had no respect for authority, which made her suspicious of him. Perhaps when she was done handling the current threat, she'd look into the potential one he might pose to their world.
"I think I've gotten all I need for now," she said, not really the case, but she knew she wasn't going to get any further with him. But the events alone gave her move than enough to file the proper reports and gain all the official documentation necessary to force the cooperation and access she'd need to further investigate. Knowing this, Zinnia stood with head held high as she smoothed her robes. "Well then, I shall take my leave." She started gathering her things, packing notebook into her bag and shouldering it as she spoke. "Thank you for your... cooperation." She purposefully said the word dryly. "I'll show myself out."
Zinnia started to mentally organize her tasks. First order of business, rid herself of the obstacle known as Boyle. She would file the report on Anya Novak's lack of legal guardianship. Making the girl a ward of the Ministry would give Zinnia nearly unlimited access to her for a while, as it tended to take some time to have a child placed in a home. As for that, she would be sure that the guardian or guardians eventually chosen would be much more pliable and cooperative.
This whole interaction may not have gone her way, but knowing she'd soon be the victor, she paused after opening the door to glance back at him with complete confidence. "I will be back in short time to take Miss Novak into my custody. Be sure she is packed and ready."
Without waiting for a response, Zinnia smartly closed the door behind her and started down the steps.

"I think I've gotten all I need for now," which he knew meant she didn't because the ministry never got with their prying attitude. However, it also meant he would get rid of her for now.
The professor was faking another smile, making no effort to hide it was fake, as he looked back up from the very unimportant document in front of him.
"Well then, I shall take my leave."
Yes, please. Severus remained silent, still looking disinterested and about to turn his attention back to whatever actually lay on the desk in front of him. His thoughts were elsewhere anyway. Luckily, this woman couldn't know where. Not only would it get Anya into trouble, but also himself for experiencing pleasure in mentally using dark arts against one who represented the ministry.
"Thank you for your... cooperation.""I'll show myself out."
"Of... course," he replied in a pretended absentmindedness, this time not even looking up. His eyes, however, were carefully wandering in the woman's direction when she busied herself with packing her things. Severus tried guessing her thoughts and plans, but the ministry was usually as hard to read as he was himself, maybe a bit easier.
Only when she had walked outside the door, closing it behind, the professor allowed himself to utter a sigh, turning away from the document on the table but, instead, towards the portraits of the past headmasters around him, searching for one in particular, unfortunately finding it empty though. He'd never gotten a chance to speak to Dumbledore ever since he had to watch him die, through his own hand at that. He missed him. His instructions even, as unusual as that might sound when coming from him, who'd been tasked with a lot of things he didn't want to do, at least not anymore at some point. Dumbledore truly wasn't easy, but he'd been like a father. Severus really could need one right now. Someone who told him if administering to this girl was actually a wise thing to do or getting himself even more into trouble. What would Dumbledore do? What would he tell him to do? For once, he would be more than happy to receive advices and follow them blindly. "Please..." he whispered more to himself than to the empty portrait, giving up at some point though. No, he had to take care of it himself.

Draco was avid to talk with the headmaster. About everything. From his and Boyle's surprise rescue team to the whomping willow, to Anya laying in bed in the hospital. None of this made sense, as he felt it should. Especially after talking with his boys. Suddenly, this just so happened to have come forth. Sure, he would admit that Scorpius was a trigger to the catalyst. But still, it happened. And in this moment, quite frank, Draco did not know how to deal with the situation. Let alone with the Ministry on their doorstep. Draco wanted nothing more than to act discreetly, and if anyone knew what was going on at Hogwarts, it would be Odgen. His feet were inching closer towards the office tower's passcode, until suddenly - someone emerged from the tower. Boyle???
"Hello, Boyle," Draco spouted the professor's name with distaste as he stopped in his tracks, "Did you have a meeting with the headmaster as well? Did you finally get sacked? Well then, good luck to you," Draco insisted with his eyes rolling in his skull in pitiful sarcasm.

It was just when Severus walked out the door, closing it shut behind, that he saw another person approaching the tower from afar. He could tell who it was by merely the way the person moved. The boy might have grown, no longer being the brat he'd used to be, but the pure-blood pride of a Malfoy was distinctive and would always be.
There weren't many steps needed to draw Draco's attention and have him call out his name.
"Hello, Boyle,""Did you have a meeting with the headmaster as well? Did you finally get sacked? Well then, good luck to you,"
Severus let a fake smile, very obviously fake at that, appear around his lips before he stepped closer toward Draco. "Malfoy," he greeted him just as disrespectfully by calling him only by his last name without any title. "It might have slipped your attentive mind... But for the while the headmaster isn't around, you'll have to content yourself with my presence. As his- substitute," Severus added with said smile widening a little. He never wanted this war between them, but surely wouldn't allow Draco to bathe in his pitiful gloat like he once had with Potter and his friends. "So, is there anything I can do for you?"

"It might have slipped your attentive mind... But for the while the headmaster isn't around, you'll have to content yourself with my presence. As his- substitute," "So, is there anything I can do for you?"
Out of all of the respectable professors at Hogwarts, why Boyle? Did he have some sort of 'in' with Ogden? Draco found it rather odd that Boyle would be the prime choice for the substitute headmaster considering how new he was in his position, but didn't think too much on it, "I came to speak with the headmaster, but I guess you will do," Draco said rather dryly before pressing forward with his query, "So I assume you spoke with Zinnia Fog from the Ministry? Did she say what would be happening with Anastasia Novak?" Draco questioned Boyle, half of him was being nosy but the other half truly cared about the girl and only hoped for the best outcome for her.

"I came to speak with the headmaster, but I guess you will do,"
Severus could see the displeasure in Draco's eyes when he seemed to recognize the fact that he was the headmaster's substitute, but, for him, there was nothing pleasing about seeing said displeasure. He never was a gleeful person, nor a fan of such attitude. So the feigned smile actually left him as soon as Draco became more concerned.
"So I assume you spoke with Zinnia Fog from the Ministry? Did she say what would be happening with Anastasia Novak?"
"The Ministry isn't known for sharing their approaches," Severus replies in a matter-of-fact tone. He didn't know of Draco's attitude towards the Ministry but assumed that he was much more personally concerned about the girl than them, which made it easier for Severus to share information with him. "But they are for digging deeper where they're suspecting something." His eyes were adding 'we probably both don't want them to find something, for the girl's same as the school's sake.'

"The Ministry isn't known for sharing their approaches," "But they are for digging deeper where they're suspecting something."
The fact that the Ministry planned to dig deeper into Anya's past was deeply concerning. The last thing he wanted was for the girl to be taken away from the school, and from Callum's life. That would completely destroy his son. He did not trust that the Ministry had good faith in keeping Anya safe, although there were many who worked within the Ministry that he knew he could trust. Many secrets that the Ministry was looking for lay hidden away at the little diary he kept safe in his long black coat. And for a mere moment, he considered sharing this bit of information with Boyle. Yet, Draco knew there were still just as many bad wizards out there as there were good wizards, and he felt as if he still needed to keep his guard up with Boyle. The little people knew about the diary, the better, and truly it was only ever safe in the hands of one person. He internally made a decision regarding the diary that he would fulfill later, "What can we do to help the girl in the meantime?" Draco asked Boyle, knowing what the Ministry was capable of and what the professor had been implying.

Severus was able to read the thoughts off Draco's face, maybe not in all their details but he surely could guess that they were about making a decision, as for trusting him or not. Yes, Draco. You can trust me. You can trust me like you always could because I'm an old friend of your family. And I'm your- godfather. Despite the emotions that came with such thoughts and memories, Severus' features wouldn't show any of that. He was well trained in hiding his true feelings, had been because he'd had to be. Always.
"What can we do to help the girl in the meantime?"
Severus watched the other for some moments in silence, considering himself. He could trust Draco Malfoy, but could he trust a man that took him for Professor Boyle, a teacher that wasn't to trust? He made a decision as well. "What do you think it is that the headmaster wanted to hide from the Ministry? The girl's file is incomplete to say the least," he added explaining to preempt the question that might follow.

"What do you think it is that the headmaster wanted to hide from the Ministry? The girl's file is incomplete to say the least,"
"That's a very good question," Draco alluded, as he was telling the truth. He wasn't sure exactly what the headmaster was hiding in regards to Anya, but he was adamant to find out, "But if it's in ill will, I will surely know. Anya...she means a great deal to me. Especially since she's the first student that has connected with my son, Callum, in what seems like his entire school career," Draco lead on, not wanting to give too many details away. And yet, he knew that if he needed someone on his side, he had to gain the trust of said individual. Whoever thought it would be the new, infamous Professor Boyle would have his own mind rolling. But this teacher cared, and he had a way about himself. Kind of like...Draco shook his head. There wasn't any use into getting into any sort of assumptions. Especially over loved ones in whom he knew were dead and long gone.

"That's a very good question,"
Severus was glad that he had decided to not only trust Draco Malfoy but also the man in front of him. A man who might want to have him leave this school immediately but knew he needed any help that he could get. He sensed that the young man's walls had been starting to break a little. So what followed was a slight smile from Severus; very, very slight, but honest indeed.
"But if it's in ill will, I will surely know. Anya...she means a great deal to me. Especially since she's the first student that has connected with my son, Callum, in what seems like his entire school career,"
Callum, yes. That boy had just the same lot of Draco in him as the younger one, just from different times of Draco. However, there was one thing that they all shared, which was the pride of a Malfoy. Severus had cursed said pride most of the time since it had been unnerving already with the first Malfoy he had gotten to know, but, nowadays, he was catching himself missing it every day. He would often think of Draco's father, Lucius, and what might have become of him; if he was still alive, of he was thinking of him sometimes as well. And Narcissa, Draco's mother. She'd grown a dear friend to him over all the years as well.
"Anya is a special child," Severus finally spoke up again, much softer than before, but also still with emotional distance, more matter-of-factly. "Trust doesn't come easy with special children," he explained further. And with special, he surely didn't mean as for powers or reputation, if at all, then a bad one. No, what he meant was difficult, as for her growing up and mindset. He was seeing a lot of himself in Anya, which was why he wanted to help her all the more, spare her from mistakes he had made, the decisions, the solitude. "I'm- glad that your son is there for her." With these last words, the matter-of-fact tone seemed to make place for something more personal, more emotionally, as memories of a once very important friendship between another special child and a boy who managed to gain the child's trust after said trust had been chattered were becoming clearer in his mind. If there was one good attribute among a lot of unnerving with the Malfoys, then it was their way of caring for their beloved, for those whom they considered worthy. Until today, Severus couldn't understand, though, why someone would have seen him worthy enough to spend their time and energy on him. He had not learned to see himself that way. Anyways, the Malfoys had a good heart, underneath all that pride and scorn, that was. For another moment, the upcoming memories had him smile slightly, unconsciously.

"Anya is a special child," "Trust doesn't come easy with special children," "I'm- glad that your son is there for her."
Draco nodded, knowing that Boyle of all people was taking this case very seriously. He took a humble step backwards, as he fastened the black blazer that rested upon his body, "Callum is a good lad," Draco boasted but in a sincere way for once, "If there is absolutely anything I can do. And I mean anything," Draco emphasized as he looked Boyle directly in the eyes. And for a moment, the caught a glimpse of someone else. Someone that had been close to Draco and his family. But there was no way. And so, he shook off the feeling and began to proceed forward with the conversation, "Please. Let me know." Draco confirmed with a slight nod of his forehead.

It was only when Draco took a step backward that Severus realized how absent-minded he'd been for a moment too long. His features quickly changed back to their usual stony expression.
"Callum is a good lad,""If there is absolutely anything I can do. And I mean anything,""Please. Let me know."
He had taken notice of the little pause while Draco spoke, the deeper look upon him, into his eyes. No, he can't know. He can't even guess. On the other hand, Draco Malfoy had also grown a smart man, which he had learned in the little time he was back at Hogwarts. Severus replied with a slight nod of his own, barely noticeable though. With hesitation at first, he spoke up again then. "It might not be the unwisest idea to... work together in this... matter."

"It might not be the unwisest idea to... work together in this... matter."
"I guess I could rightfully agree with that statement," Draco spoke hesitantly. He wasn't doing it for Boyle, and he was very aware that Boyle wasn't doing it for him either. It was all for the girl, for Anya, and that was a cause that Draco could certainly get behind. "It's interesting though," Draco piped up again as he casually slid his hands into the dark trench coat that perfectly tailored his figure, cocking his head to the side curiously with a slightly puzzled look upon his features, "I've had connections with Anya and have my true reasons of helping the girl. But I can't help but wonder...why you have also invested so much interest in her cause?" Draco pondered as he looked directly at the man in question. Perhaps the man had an agenda...but perhaps the man had a soft heart that was easily concealed by his stiff demeanor.

"I guess I could rightfully agree with that statement,"
Draco's guess was only half true actually. Severus wasn't doing it for himself primarily, but, unlike the other would think, a part of him was pleased with this cooperation they were going to form for Anya.
"It's interesting though,"
Of course, Severus could hear the still suspicious tone in Draco's voice, and nothing else had been expected. It was good to be suspicious, after all. He could probably not live with the knowledge of Lucius having raised his son differently. A slight smirk, almost unnoticeable, appeared on the professor's lips for a moment and happened to disappear as suddenly as it had come.
"I've had connections with Anya and have my true reasons of helping the girl. But I can't help but wonder... why you have also invested so much interest in her cause?"
The smirk reappeared, yet differently. Now it was Professor Boyle smirking towards Mister Malfoy and not like before, a man towards his godchild. "Believe it or not... I've made my experience with prejudices as well. I'd like to spare the girl from the scars those tend to leave behind," he replied calmly, and despite the bitterness of a sad past, almost softly even. Before Draco could say anything, or go into questioning of any sort, Severus went on more professional again, questioning on his part actually. "And I take it you didn't talk to the Ministry yet yourself?"

"Believe it or not... I've made my experience with prejudices as well. I'd like to spare the girl from the scars those tend to leave behind," "And I take it you didn't talk to the Ministry yet yourself?"
"Very briefly, nothing concerning any information on Anya," Draco verified to ensure that they were both playing on the same team, "Only enough to ensure my boys' names are in the clear and that they hadn't caused much damage. I will be dealing with Scorpius firmly, as he was the one who appeared to have triggered Anya in the first place." Draco admitted hesitantly. Though, he knew that if he wanted to secure Boyle's trust that they had to have an open and honest line of communication between them.

Severus was glad that Draco didn't respond to his former words with more questions that would have him dig deeper into his personal history. He didn't like it if people did in general, but he especially wouldn't like Draco Malfoy, one of Hogwarts' governors, to do so.
He gave a slight, almost unnoticeable nod before he added, again more personally: "Maybe it's not my concern... but if you ask me, a child is only as empathetic as it learned to be." Severus' eyes added as its father taught him, meaning not only the relationship of Draco and Scorpius but also of Lucius and Draco. But again, he didn't leave the other any room for responding to his words before he became more professional again. "I've given the Ministry the least possible information myself, but they will dig deeper, and they will make a hideous cause out of it if they can," he stressed on the Anya case again.

"Maybe it's not my concern... but if you ask me, a child is only as empathetic as it learned to be."
Draco's mouth gaped open slightly as his face grew rather stunned at the remark from Boyle. Once again, Draco's eyes swam with many questions for this man as he stared at him. He tried to find a way to respond, but the professor standing before him rendered Draco rather speechless. Was this man seriously assuming details of his own parenting skills? Boyle barely even knew Draco! Or so he thought.
"I've given the Ministry the least possible information myself, but they will dig deeper, and they will make a hideous cause out of it if they can,"
Picking his jaw back up from the ground, Draco cleared his throat as he rapidly nodded his head in agreement, "Very well then. Let's meet again in a few days to discuss our findings, surely we'll both be around." Draco answered quite dryly as he fixed the collar of his coat and began to walk past the professor.
Suddenly, another thought crossed Draco's mind and although he was already a few steps away from Boyle, he turned back around to face the man, "Oh. And by the way, Boyle, you might be a professor at Hogwarts and deal with students daily - but I can tell you are a childless man. The empathy you lack is quite astounding. Maybe you should get a pet, or something to love so you can learn a thing or two." Draco went off on Boyle with a stern and scolding tone before turning back around and seeing himself out.
