astronomizzle ♧ gryffinDORK | & the rest is drag ♣ #badluckDerf Still unable to process what had arrived via snail mail over the holidays, the Astronomy professor had finally found a moment between lesson work, Head of House duties, and juggling some Astronomer Royal duties to sit down with his schedule and find himself an open weekend. Well, open was not the proper term, more like a weekend that he could spare away from the castle. Assuming St. Mungo's could fit him in so last minute.
Checking over the contents of his letter once more, Airey gave his sundial watch a cursory glance and then proceeded to select one of the school owls to accomplish the task. A Great Horned Owl, to be precise. He had read somewhere or overheard someone saying that they were the fastest sorts of owls. Probably something he should have confirmed on his own given his lack of creature knowledge. Oh well. Too late now.
Attaching the letter to the owl's leg, he cleared his throat. "St Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries," he instructed. "Warp 10+ so you arrive yesterday...or a week ago...or last month."
You know, whatever got the owl there FAST.
And then he released the owl, watching it fly off into the distance with Pebbles waiting dutifully by his right foot and pink leash strung around his wrist .
