Patrick was scurrying down the halls trying to get to the staircases so he might get some studying in. He glanced over to see the bulletin board with a bright orange flyer that he had seen in the Slytherin Common Room. Only this time there were more people surrounding the board. He saw one girl standing and looking up at the ceiling. He approached a bit as he noticed Maddie, a girl he had seen in his potions class. He figured that he would ask if they were auditioning for the play, he might stop by to see what drama club was all about because he was somewhat interested in.

He glanced at the ground and saw that there was something red on them. Patrick took a half step back hoping to avoid the red stuff. He followed the girls looks toward the ceiling and saw a hawk. He hadn't seen anything like this in any of the other corridors but he wasn't certain that that wasn't supposed to be there. "Are you two okay? Do I need to run and get someone?" He wasn't really sure what he needed to do but he knew that he should likely ask the others what they thought since he was only a first year.
