This placed used to be the staff meeting room. Now it's something a bit more sinister.
The Committee of Education Enforcement Office has a shiny placard on the door so you can't mistake where you are. It's easy to find and the door is either locked shut or hanging open, so you can't mistake when you are and aren't welcome.
Well, no use dallying. Better step inside.
The office is a simple, large room, with each corner taken up by a different committee member. Brass name cards on each desk clearly spell out each owner, though some are easier to tell at a glance than others. The men work on the left, the women on the right. In the center of the room lies a round table with four chairs pushed in, presumably for discussions. A mess of parchment with notes scribbled on it is spread out on the desk, though at second glance some of the parchment just has idle doodles instead of actual notes.
On the near left is where Mr. Slater works. His desk is very neat, with no signs of personalization. A sleek Mac-book sits in the center of the desk, because Slater uses Apple products like an a*****e. Slater is almost always here, completing paperwork of some kind or another. He uses cheap ballpoint pens that he stores in a mug - several pens of the same brand, so he'll never be short. The two bins marked IN and OUT are almost even, but the OUT pile is just a little higher. (He's not inefficient; Slater simply has quite a lot of work to complete. Silly students, breaking rules day in and day out.) Slater is the one to go to if you're reporting someone or if you're in trouble. If you're completely honest maybe he'll let you off easy.
On the far left is where Mr. Lockwood works. His desk is a little messier than Slater's, and judging from the even piles in the IN and OUT bins, he's not nearly as efficient either. Lockwood uses an expensive-looking silver laptop to keep track of his work, though judging from the thick, boring-looking book in the corner that's always changing, he's more easily distracted than Slater. Lockwood writes with expensive-looking quills and thick black ink. There's a phone on the corner of the desk - Lockwood's usually the one that takes any calls from the Council.
On the far right is where Ms. Bishop works. Her desk is covered in white lace filigree, with a photo frame in the corner that's face down. Bishop writes with light blue pens, which she keeps grouped together in a white teacup. Some of the paperwork that she's been working on is weighed down with small animal skulls. Yes, small animal skulls. The paper work she's already completed is in the OUT bin, which is conspicuously higher than the IN bin. Next to a simple white laptop, Bishop usually has a full cup of tea, placed on a saucer over a lacy doily. When she fills her teacup is a mystery, since there's no sign of a teapot, but it's one of those strange mysteries that you never really want to question. Behind her is a display case full of more animal skeletons. There's another chair tucked into her corner, and a set of curtains she can pull around her small area for when she has a patient in. The curtains are charmed with a muffle spell, so what's said inside can't be heard outside. Patient's privacy is top priority, after all! Bishop's desk is where you go if you're looking for a little therapy.
Finally, on the near right is Ms. Belacqua's desk. Belacqua has a large circular lace doily laid across that she keeps her sleek black laptop on. (You suspect she's charmed the doily to keep the laptop cool.) Belacqua keeps several binders in a neat row on her desk, and one corner of her desk displays a series of taxidermy butterflies preserved in bell jars. Belacqua uses very stylish quill pens - sleek black feathers with golden flecks, which she keeps in a black pot. Judging from her high OUT pile and low IN pile, she's as efficient as Bishop. Behind her on the wall hangs a notice board full of little memos from meetings and doodles/gossip she and Bishop have passed back and forth during said meetings. There are photos on the side displaying Belacqua next to a male (Though you swear its a different man every week). Next to the notice board is a thin, black-and-gold display case full of teacups, teapots, and crystal vials. Belacqua is in charge of school-public relations and the media, so if you have an issue she's the one to go to.
Four Council members. Four desks. Four choices. Where are you headed today?
