Seems like I'm really going to have to take you out for tea before you forgive me for that, aren't I?" she replied, a little rueful even as she smiled back, delighted at seeing the expression on him.

"Sounds like I am best off by keeping my head down, then? But if she becomes rough with the students of her own school, I very much doubt people will be quiet about it.

Bury me in this cold light
I feed the wolf, and shed my skin
I feed the wolf, and shed my skin
