That group on a whole tended to be absolutely swarming with hormones and dramatics.

It wasn't until he approached and he noticed the obvious, gaping holes in the sides of the hourglasses, as well as a few of what remained of the gems scattered about the floor that he realized this was an issue.

"Oh for Circe sake."

Malachi walked up to the hourglasses, spotting the Dooley staring without really doing anything. Though, what did one do in a situation like this?

The Headmaster grimaced at the scene. "What on earth.....?" He reached a hand toward one of the holes, searching through his brain for anything that could have done this. The edges were jagged, not smooth. It wasn't done by magic--and good too because he'd been about to start a metaphoric witch hunt for whoever thought THIS was a good idea. No, something very physical had done this.

The man drew his wand and collected all that remained of the gems into his pocket until this could be sorted. "I don't suppose either of you saw what happened." Otherwise at least Swann would've gone into it rather than ask why the points were gone. This new addition to the budget wasn't going to go over well with the board, that's for sure.

"Any idea what might've done this?"
Daisy was now standing near the Headmaster, having talked to him regarding the matter. She was relieved that he was seeing the damage for himself. She watched on silently as he inspected the jagged hole. When he asked for suggestions as to who might have done this, Daisy fetched her notebook from her bag and showed him her drawing of the pink, fluffy creature with tiny horns and fangs (ooc: Mutant). "Headmaster, maybe this might have something to do with it. I mean, I could be wrong."
