Civilized persons conduct business over tea. [incomplete]

Dec 02, 2010 22:01

Where: Elizabeth Swann's office
When: A few days after Norrington's arrival.
Who: Norrington, Elizabeth (and eventually that damn Sparrow)
What: Discussion of Norrington's role within the school, over tea. Then hostility ensues when an uninvited guest shows up.
Warnings: Jack Sparrow is a warning in of itself I suppose.



After delivering his invitation to Miss Swann, it was her suggestion to have the meeting in her office where there was a serviceable tea set. This was more than acceptable considering he had not the chance to go to the shops during the unsuitable weather, and there was another matter of a lack of funds.

He had doubts that the banks in London had heard of his death yet but he did not want to signal to Beckett that he was still alive by attempting to contact them. And if they had heard he barely knew the cousin that his estate was entitled to, so he could not trust him not to reveal his location.

Standing outside of Miss Swann's office, he rapped against her door with his knuckles thrice, his mind full of thoughts. Perhaps she would be able to help sort some of them out.
