    Sample Roleplay Post: Maximilian sat in his office, he didn't really have any work, other than taking paperwork from his subordinates, he really didn't care about the filthy Muggles, he had worked in the feild before but now he was Head of the Department and all he had to do was sit in his Office. Maximilian's opinion of werewolves was completely different than some of the other's he worked with, he was not against them, he had nothing against them at all, he didn't care if other people knew of this opinion of his, let them think what they want, he wouldn't let other's opinions about him bother him. 

    Maximilian heard a knock on the door, but it opened before he could even respond, he raised a brow at the person standing before him, it was Ariadne Selwyn, one of his subordinates and also his ally, he wouldn't call her his friend, because she was not. Max noticed a stack of paper's in her hand, it was no doubt about those disgusting Muggles, and it was equally bad that they had to waste good paper on Muggles. This certainly gave them an opportunity to talk, about what he wasn't sure, but he knew she would talk.

    "Alright, just put them on the desk, I'll go through them" he said in a uninterested tone, he watched as she sat down in front of him, "Remind me why we have to do Muggles these favors again? It is such a waste. Haven't found the Werewolves huh? Well I don't care they can keep looking for them." he was still using that uninterested tone, compared to her frustrated one. Upon hearing the word Snakes, he shifted a little uncomfortably, he needed to make sure no one would hear them, and he had made sure moments ago no one would here anything being said in his office. It was safe to talk about the Snakes, but he wasn't entirely sure, but he decided to take the risk anyways, "And what did you say about the Snakes?" he asked, giving her the signal that it was all good to talk about their business.

    Ari and Max both had Death Eater connections from their past, Max did not trust Ari completely but he was sure she didn't trust him completely either, but he trusted her more than he trusted other people.
