[MISS IZZIE EGG]
Archie pressed his fingers to his temple. This was ridiculous.

No, this really was ridiculous. This was a yoga studio, for heaven's sake. Magic not only didn't need to be applied here, but the fact that this infernal woman actually contested her Official warning and resumed the delinquent behavior was simply unbelievable! He'd arrested very few people during the years he'd worked in the Improper Use of Magic department and this was a first. If she had just agreed to cease any and all magical work within the studio, she would have gotten off with a warning and a notification on her permanent record. All in all, not that bad of a deal, especially when magic shouldn't have been employed there in the first place!

He took a deep breath. This was really just nonsense. But, he had to do what he had to do, whether or not it was ridiculous nonsense.

"Isobel Egg," Archie called, knocking his fist against the door, "this is Arcturus MacMillan from earlier. I need to speak with you, please."

He wasn't quite expecting her to fling the door open like that.

Well, that was a lie.

He wasn't quite expecting her to assail him with her fists.

Well, that was a bit of a lie too.

All in all, he understood how she was feeling. But on the other hand, he did give her fair warning and she was rather flippant with their first meeting. And he tried to tell her so, amid the flying fists.

"Now, really, Miss Egg!" Archie began uncomfortably. "I am very sorry, really, but this isn't just a formality, you know! We do require that you come down to the office so we can assess the situation there. Flagrant misconduct simply cannot be overlooked, you know!"

"YOU'RE GOING TO RUIN EVERYTHING! WHAT DID MY PLACE EVER DO TO YOU? YOU'RE JUST BEING MEAN AND---AND---"

Isobel finally stopped attacking Archie--Archie. That was not a name for the ministry official who was going to ruin her life. It should have at least been something intimidating, something strong and manly and all of the things Archie wasn't. Except--except that this Archie MacMillan was about the change her life forever, and she was finally coming to the conclusion that she couldn't do a damn thing about it.

"What are you going to do," she let out, much softer and sounding far more miserable than before. Isobel's wide eyes were masked in red from her tears, and she hoped he took some pity on her, even though she really didn't deserve it.

The tiny fists finally stopped their attacks and Archie felt so terribly guilty for a second. But, now, hang on just a tick! This was a law-breaking felon! Admittedly, she looked rather harmless than some of the other notorious felons they'd apprehended in past (but her fists hurt).

"I am not ruining everything, I am merely doing my job, Miss Egg," he replied, somewhat sternly. "All we're going to do, at the moment, is take a few days to de-ward your studio and take you to the main Office so you may make a few statements, pay your fine, and then leave, if you do everything we ask of you."

"I wasn't hurting anyone!" she let out, still not understanding her crimes. Death eaters were running amuck in the wizarding and muggle world, and it was incredibly rare that the aurors or anyone caught any of them! How was that fair? Her spells soothed the muggles that came to her studio, the magic created a calm atmosphere that many enjoyed and flocked to.

"I just don't understand," Isobel moaned, putting a hand to her head. In all of her years she'd never thought that simply having magic around muggles would be such a horrible thing; at least, this man was making it seem to be, "What--what are you going to tell the muggles?"

Jeez, and she had her geriatrics class today too. Isobel's lips began to waver again as she thought about it, eyes quickly welling up once more.
