Don't forget to eat and tell Mystique the same if you see her." Lady Violetta chucked then left. She went upstairs and got another box of toys to take to Elizabeth. She needed a simple talk with her and showing her that even she could place toys about a room. "I am back with more toys, Elizabeth." she spoke as she came into the room. "I really don't have the time for a full fledged lecture but here is the basics of the lecture I would give you if I had the time to give you one. I am more than a teacher and Headmistress here. I am also the mayor of the village, overseer of the crops and animals, the head of the hospital, education board for the children and more. I rarely sleep because I have so many hats to wear. I must oversee most things because I have very few talented people. Cook is good at cooking but he does not have a good PR with people. Titus is good with animals but lousy with people, good with carving wood. He is not good at keeping his books straight so I help him. Dewey can't stand animals but is excellent with wand making and keeps his accounts very well. He can even make his own polish and such for the wands. I only have to check on him from to to time. Adam has a special way with people and food plus he is most excellent with accounts. As you can see or so I hope, I am very busy person with no personal time for myself. I don't even dare to take a pet because I do not have time to take care of it's needs. All that I am asking of you students is to simply follow my directives and support my efforts during this crisis. I don't want to turn into a Royal B but I can do so if that is what it takes to get you motivated enough to do as you are told. And yes, I know that Cook is a true pain in the Arse but he does get my menus on the table. There... all of these toys are out." Lady Violetta spoke calmly yet somewhat distant. "Do you have any specific questions to ask me? And remember that the Academy is Sentient and I hear the complaints from it as well. Part of my work description just like making do with what staff I have."

She saw Ayaka and hurries over to her and asks "Have you seen Titus lately? I need to get some supplies from him." [/color][/b]
