When Professor Eichel speaks again, it's not to Professor Rammsteiner.

"Jade, hold him."

Hold him? Jade knows how to, of course, and he raises his wand, but he doesn't cast anything. Not yet. Raising his wand against Professor Rammsteiner is something he hasn't done yet, not in earnest, and in this case he isn't sure what's to be gained by holding him here.

"He shouldn't be able to get out with the locking charms in place," Jade ventures. "If you two still need to talk."

Privately, he thinks there's little to be resolved with words at this stage. A Memory Charm would solve things far more neatly.
