Hey all! I'm here to get a DP article up for the death of Professor Thomas Pembroke and I am here to ask for quotes and input from you!

Ideal Quotes would be from

School Staff
Ministry Officials of Appropriate Departments perhaps even the future/new Minister would like to chime in if he's feeling so inclined?
Concerned parents writing to the editor - gonna assume letters went out in the following days after his death, so some public knowledge is there, but not in any detail

I would love to get responses by October 31st so that I can get an article written and sent in by approximately November 4 so staff can have time to send it out in a reasonable timeframe of the death itself. Please either PM Pen or Discord message me.

Ben absolutely would not say anything to anyone because he wants to stay in Headmaster Black's good books as long as possible — but I am very curious to know more about what happened, is there going to be a tl:dr; somewhere of the facts of his death as they're known or suspected?

Lynn, thank you for bringing that up <3

Pen is likely to outburst that the professor almost fell on her when she gets her wits about her. Whether or not anyone suspects foul play is left to speculation unless people start interviewing the portraits (which would be totally fair and most will probably state that he fell, with their own typical personal comments thrown in; feel free to send me NPC quotes from portraits, I'm here for it).

Okay, so the official story is he fell down/off of the stairs and died? In that case Oz also doesn't have any comments since it's just an accident from all appearances.

I'm sure Phineas declined to comment and left it up to Meserimus to make the official statement, as it should come from the school administration >.>
