However when the ground under his feet started to rumble and become unsteady he forgot about the need to chat and instead wondered what in merlin's socks was going on???????? Scotland didn't have earthquakes did they?

With an increasing sense of alarm Leo heard Airey take command of the situation and the students to not raise a panic he opted to follow the rumbling sound. Someone had to investigate what was going on. He was certain that Cassie was near Airey and thus safe and so was his eagles.

Moving away from the students Leo followed the rumbling sound that came in intervals over to where the gigantic pitch hole was. But blinking and squinting Leo goggled, mouth gaping open, eyes as big as saucers in surprise. The PITCH WAS HEALEDDDDDD! The Gigantic hole was GONE! As in none existing! The ground was all FLAT and SHINY!

Still staring in surprise and equal alarm, mouth going dry he swallowed sharply as he didn't know what to think as he fumbled out his wand to send off some patronus messages. There was no way that Leo could make any sense of this on his own. He needed help!

Anticipating further aftershocks was maddening business. Maddening. And while the shaking did continue every now and then, it was certainly not intensifying which meant that the worst was over...in the event that this had just been an earthquake.

...and assuming whatever plate tectonics Hogwarts sat on were...well...normal.

Something the man seriously doubted, but that was a curious case for another time.

And then there was the silvery form of Leobald's patronus, which instantly sent the astronomer's blue eyes towards his colleagues. "I'll help hold the fort down here," he nodded, just as he had done during the acromantula invasion. Just in case something was coming this way and...whatever was going on over there on the quidditch pitch an elaborate distraction. "Miss Brown, Mr. Adair, please assist me in making sure no one goes wandering off." And inform the other prefects of this as well. The more eyes the merrier when it came to teenagers.

Sweet solstice.
