Announcements [Friday]
Once again, sometime during the mid morning hours, a bright and saccharine sweet voice blasts from the speakers.
"Good morning dear children and faculty members," Umbridge's voice said. "I trust we all were in bed at a decent time last night and we are all now awake, alert and ready to learn."
She'd heard radio. She knew what the students had been up to.
"I'd like to start off with a few of my own announcements. First, any person caught listening to any of Hermione Granger's lies will be punished immediately. The poor dear suffered some trauma in the past and hasn't been quite right since. We should all pull together to try and help her heal, the poor dear sweet child."
She didn't mean one word of that.
Umbridge could be heard sighing sadly over the speakers. And then the happy voice was back. "Second, any person, student or staff member, caught mocking, insulting, and otherwise talking back to me or saying anything against me will be punished with a detention. Respect isn't so much to ask, is it?"
There was laughter now, short and crisp. "This has been your Headmaster and I do hope you all have a pleasant day."
[Feel free to react!]

The fuming stopped about the time Hermione realized Umbridge must have thought people would actually listen to her. Well, she'd just have to be a little more creative. Not that that was ever a problem.
