“Am I free to go?”
“Max, stop asking that. This is an interview, not an interrogation.”
The Potions Master arched a confused brow and looked around the dim interrogation room he sat in until his eyes fell back on the Auror in front of him. A slow grin rose in his cheeks when he felt Franks’ aura bristle with agitation.
When asked for a memory of his attack for evidence purposes by the Ministry, Max had declined. He didn’t want his torture available for viewing in the Department’s pensieve, even if it was guarded by Alex as Head Auror. Especially because Alex was Head Auror: it was possibly naive, but Max wanted to protect Alex from seeing what his nephew went through down in the Catacombs. Instead he opted for a series of interviews telling the story his own way, in his own words. It was an element of control he’d lost in the Catacombs and was slowly gaining back.
Franks huffed as he looked over the parchment the quill had been writing along to Max’s words, nodding his head. “Actually Kameren, I think we might be done here.”
“So…?” Max smiled and Franks rolled his eyes.
“You’re free to go.”
“Thank you!” The tall Potions Master pushed himself up from the table and opened the door, letting Franks out ahead of him before he stepped out into the hall of the Ministry. He sought out Alex in his mind, finding him exactly where he would expect: the Head Auror’s office. Max made his way through the offices in that direction, finding the door closed.
He knocked; he knew better than to barge in, he’d heard the horror stories. “Alex? Got a minute? I watched the memory.”
