The Ministry of Magic was in a state of confusion. Though they still technically had a Minister in Pius Thicknesse, he was never much of a leader. His talents lay in being nothing more than a useful puppet. Critical thinking and decision-making on his own were a virtual impossibility. He was expected to be ousted from office sooner rather than later. If he was smart, he would run before the fighting began. Hermione didn't care what happened to anyone in the Ministry. Except maybe for Angelina Johnson. They'd never been enemies and she truly was a kind woman, even if Hermione saw that attribute as being something of a weakness in their current world. The whole building could burn to the ground for all Hermione gave a damn. She would never be returning.
