Ian nodded as Adi suggested he go to the healer. He'd been thinking the same because things hadn't appeared to get better, but seemed to be getting worse. He had finished filling in the scratches and began to actually polish the handle. He was pretty proud of his work. He liked to take care of the brooms. He had remembered using them last year and while they weren't the best brooms, they certainly should look as good as they could for all the new students.
Of course he was proud of his new broom. It had been a gift from a relative he hadn't met yet. When his parents had gotten the letter, they sat him down and told him about a distant cousin in Edinburgh who had been able to do things they didn't understand. This cousin had sent him a letter after he'd completed his first year at Hogwarts and offered to purchase the broom so his parents didn't have to. His father had written Sean back and allowed the purchase. The day he'd gotten it was a very joyous day, but he hadn't had a chance to try it out until he'd gotten back to school. It was magnificent and he wanted the other students to feel the joy of flying good looking brooms.
Ian looked up at is friend and said,
What happened to your beard?
