Principal's Office, 6/7
Edmund sat at his desk with his feet up and his eyes closed. The telephone on his desk on speaker setting was washing the irritated voices of school board members over him, but he was barely listening, only making the appropriate noises in the appropriate places.
So there had been a brawl.
So what?
This was a school for children who would do that sort of thing. What did the school board expect. His job was just to keep them alive. Not keep them from hitting simulacra in the YMCA.
Then a name stood out in the midst of the blather.
Walter. Dornez.
Edmund's feet hit the floor.
Bad enough that Longstocking girl was here. How had his missed this one's arrival?
He started to smile.
It was not a nice smile.
Years ago a certain Walter Dornez had mummified him in duct tape, left him that way for days (it hadn't been days, but memory plays tricks) and destroyed his flat in acts of wanton... wantonness that would not go unpunished.
Revenge. Served cold. Yada yada yada.
He assured the school board this would be dealt with and hung up to issue a summons for the brawlers.
Walter Dornez and Nadia Santos, report to the principal's office, posthaste.
[ooc: Open for others, but expecting Walter and Nadia. Although I may save playing with myself for later when I'm not at work.]
