Looking over at the window he sure hoped that Faustus flying ability lasted a little longer than Walnut. Sadly, Walnut wouldn't be able to deliver the letter. Eino petted the cat's head and said "It's okay Walnut," then he looked at Kurumi, "We will use a school owl then, I suppose." He reached over his bag and searched for the letter he had written to his father. He reviewed it one last time before folding it and putting it in an envelope. The letter asked for this father to send Kurumi the contact details of Mrs. Elo, who could possibly help Kurumi with some information about him. He walked over a large white and black owl and tried to tie the letter to its claw but the owl repeatedly pulled its claw away, and when Eino insisted the owl spread and flapped its wings threateningly. Finally, after folding its wings, the owl opened its mouth indicating Eino that it would hold the letter with its beak. Eino gave the letter to the owl, instructed the owl who to the deliver the letter to and watched it fly away. "How do you suppose it will ask for directions if it gets lost with the letter on its beak?"
Thank phoenix's tears, Eino had given up on teaching Walnut how to fly or, how to turn into a pancake. Kurumi found herself able to breathe again and Walnut looked like he was about to pass out in her arms. "
Yes, a school owl will be just fine," she nodded as she watched Eino pick out a rather handsome looking owl. For someone who loved all creatures and meant well, Eino just didn't seem to have much magical sense with them. Guess it was a good thing Kurumi was friends with him. She could make up for that. Although, she was too late with Faustus. Perhaps a summoning charm would bring him back...if she was fast enough, perhaps she could even cast reparo before Eino noticed....but...she was going to need a distraction. Her thought process was momentarily interrupted when Eino asked her about owls carrying letters. "
I'm, not sure," she said thoughtfully. "
Perhaps he uses wing language, you know, like sign language?"
