The other question was more troubling. Casey had no point of reference in working with children and he was always honest with his men about what they faced. Should he sugarcoat for them? No. He never sugarcoated.

"And I'm telling you this because its in your own best interest to be vigilant as well. All of you. The theme this term is 'Don't die.'"
The man was being honest; so blatantly honest it seemed to trouble him. That or something else was troubling him. The first possibility was slightly reassuring, the second, not so much. But there was still something that Sabel couldn't understand that kept him sitting on the edge of the comfy chair instead of lounging back in it; and he knew it wasn't because he had gotten in trouble.

"I have never seen nor heard of a combination that can turn a boy's hands green." He shook his head a little, having to remind himself he wasn't in the muggle world and stranger things were possible. Letting out a heavy sigh he looked back at the Headmaster. "If you were so sure the food was fine, then why did you bring up consequences of retribution for Brant's condition?"

His eyes narrowed a little as he considered the man across from him, remembering the speech he had given at the feast. "And, if the theme is 'don't die', why did you specifically tell the student body that you 'sincerely doubt anyone will die this year'?"
