ANNOUNCEMENT

Hello time deviants! Here at the Ministry we'd like to help as many of you as possible, and that leads us to my announcement: underage time deviants will no longer need to look for work or pay for their residences. As they should be under someone's care, they are going to be under the care of the Ministry.

This is not to say that you will be allowed free reign over wizarding Britain, of course: the Ministry and Hogwarts are coordinating to put together a program that will allow all time deviants of schooling age to attend Hogwarts until graduation or they can be sent to their proper time, whichever comes first. It won't do for students to fall behind in their studies, after all.

All school supplies will be Ministry-provided at no cost to the students. All registered time deviants between the ages of 11 and 16 are expected to report to the Ministry by Friday. All students will be returning to Hogwarts over the week-end to allow themselves time to acclimate back into the dormitories.

We hope it will give you all a sense of home and familiarity in this frightening and uprooting time. A reminder: please register! We can't help you if you don't come in and tell us that you're here.

— Regulus Black.

Let me know if you're going to need additional assistance with any overflow over the next few days; Central has more than a few officials standing ready to step in if necessary. Yes, that does include me.

They've also put quite a lot of work into streamlining the process, and while I know that it might cause some confusion on our side, if we can implement this for the coming week it will certainly make it more painless for those coming in and ultimately for ourselves as well. I can walk you through the details, if you're willing to take responsibility for apprising the rest of the staff.

Bellatrix still has DMAC to run, so as much as we can take registration issues off her plate, the better.

Thank you, Lucius.

Ultimately I'm meant to spearhead the coordination efforts so if you could walk me through the details I would appreciate it; I'll gladly apprise the rest of the staff as I need to get used to doing so anyway.

I've been taking over some of the general registration since my department is essentially closed now that term has begun. This will hopefully help more.

Of course, Regulus, the more smoothly the transition period goes, the better. I imagine you'll be traveling to Hogwarts quite often as we transition the children back into school. If you'd like to meet this afternoon in my office, I can take you through it.

We're all very grateful for your willingness to step up and get acclimated quickly to these changes. It's not as odd for us, of course, but it's still odd.

I'm meant to head to Hogwarts over the week-end to help sort things out while the students filter in. Being ready by then would be ideal. Heading up a project is a huge step up for me and especially one of this magnitude, I don't want to disappoint anyone by not being up to expectations. I can be in this afternoon.

I want to do the best I can for everyone, of course. What kind of person would I be if I allowed my peers and supervisors to shoulder all the work?

I agree entirely; presenting the Hogwarts staff with a highly organized fait accompli will reassure them that the Ministry will have this well in hand. Don't concern yourself too much, however, with the stress of additional responsibility. You have been taking on extra responsibility since you came to the Ministry in the first place, and I've never seen you stumble. I expect you'll handle this with grace and aplomb as well.

If you want to stop by around two, I'll see that Peter has tea ready, and we can cover all the details.

Speaking as one of the displaced, I was wondering if perhaps you could tell us a bit more about what the curriculum looks like at Hogwarts in this time? Maybe even who some of the professors are? I'm not heading back, myself, [DODGED THAT KILLING CURSE.] but I imagine others would find it helpful to know what some of the differences may be between this one and the Hogwarts they know so they can prepare accordingly.

[Are Death Eaters controlling Hogwarts, yes or no.]
