| | Magical Creatures Nursery Welcome to Hogwart's Care of Magical Creatures Nursery.
Outside on the grounds and right beside the professor's hut, you'll find a large, stone building. Inside the building and lining the walls are a variety of cages in all sorts of various sizes. Peek inside the cages and you'll be delighted to find that they are filled with sweet, baby, magical creatures. Look beside the door and you'll find shelves stocked with dragon hide gloves, goggles, brushes, clean rags, and anything else you could ever need to care for these precious baby creatures.
Just outside the back door of the stone building is a number of pens and stables for the larger creatures, such as the Abraxans, and a designated closed-in play area for your baby to roam in the warm sun. Be sure and properly close the stable doors and pens when you're finished caring for your little darling.
Please come in and let your creature get to know you. Make sure they are growing up nice and strong and report any problems to Professor Morgan. OOC: If you have any questions, stop by the Notice Board for more information. |

| Double Agent Stamps! Abby walks out of the tack room carrying a bridle, halter, and a lead. "I found two things that look like they will do the trick. Now I need to find out which one is right." Abby goes back into the stall and finds some clean hay to sit down on. She pulls out her book on abraxans. "Let's see... the one with the bit-that's this metal thing-is used for riding and driving horses. I don't think that's the one we need. It must be this one." Abby compares the halter to the picture in her books. "Yeah, this is the one. The lead attaches here." Abby stands back up and take her wand out. She levitates the halter over Marmalade's head. It fall into place naturally. "Now let me attach the lead, and we'll be ready to go." Abby attaches it and let head out into the paddock. She sees the two people from inside the nursery and their two abraxan. Abby smiles and walks Marmalade carefully around the fence. She doesn't want the two other abraxans butting heads with Marmalade. |

"Alright, shall we start?" "Hold on," Copernicus reached out to catch her arm so he could wipe a smudge of dirt off her cheek. "You tell those rowdy little Abraxans to behave next time."
He let her go and coaxed the two foals back toward the nursery. He was eager to see which sort of fermented grain they preferred. Tiberius trotted along eagerly, perhaps tuckered out after all that romping in the yard.

Celandine followed Copernicus and Tiberius, using the bottle to coax Cassiopeia who was seemingly reluctant to leave the pen.
Once they got inside, Celandine carefully led Cassiopeia toward a pile of hay and shut the stall. "We should do them one at a time." Cela suggested, "Tiberius first? How shall we do it?"

| Double Agent Stamps! Abby was happy that Copernicus and Celene had taken their abraxans back inside. She wants to work with Marmalade alone. Abby takes another piece of sugar out of her pocket. "This is the last one my dear. If you do good out here, you get some butterbeer as a reward." Abby has done some reading on single malt liquor. It seems it's main ingredients are water and malted barley. She's also checked some books Madame Maxime has written on abraxan breeding. It seems she starts her folds on a diet of malted barley to get them use to the taste of single malt liquor. Madame Maxime also said you should not start a diet of only single malt liquor until the fold is about three to four monthes old. Butterbeer can be used to get the fold used to the taste.
Abby winds some of the lead up. She wants Marmalade to remain close to her. The abraxan needs to learn how to walk around and not roam. "Here we go. You follow me okay." |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Hugo Jermaine Woods Seventh Year | Visit 3 avant-garde Mrs. Nick Jonas
It had been positively ages since Hugo had dropped in on his little Clabbert. She was probably HUGE by now! But he’d put off his last visit, due to the fact that in the last week, the heavens had actually opened and made going outside pretty much impossible. Well it was possible, but he had desperately been shielding his perfect locks by taking shortcuts through hallways and encasing his whole head in a plastic bag. However, the day had come when his plastic bag supply had run out, and he had to venture outdoors…in the rain. With no head gear. And there was no point in even suggesting a ‘keep dry’ spell, because he’d sat on his wand and it was fizzling with orange pus in the dormitory. And he didn’t know a ‘keep dry’ spell anyway. So that plan was pretty much awful.
Peering out into the rain, Hugo let out a soft moan. And then, hands clutching his beautiful hair in a pitiful attempt to protect it, he charged towards the Nursery. He burst through the door, absolutely drenched. NUUU! Sniffling thoroughly, he trudged towards Georgie’s cage. It was incredible that his tiny baby creature could put a smile on his face, even when his hair was completely deflated and sticking to his face. “Hello Georgie babeeeh,” he cooed, opening the latch of her cage and allowing her to crawl onto his shoulder. EEE!
“Lemme give your cage a clean, m’kay?” Hugo offered, letting the Clabbert perch on his head whilst he began to scrape the dirty straw into a bag and throw it in the trash. Once that was done, he grabbed a handful of fresh hay, and lined the cage with it. There. Nice and comfy. After refilling her food and water bowls, Hugo plucked Georgie off of his head and snuggled her close to him. “Aren’t choo growing up nice and healthy?” He chuckled, tickling her under her chin. “You look sleepy, missy. Get come sleep.” Stroking the Clabbert’s back, he placed her gently on her freshly made bed of straw, where she curled up and closed her eyes.
AWWWW!
“Bye Georgie baby,” Hugo whispered, securely closing the cage and making for the door. Oh no. Back into the rain. MERR!

It had been a couple of days since Mackenzie had visited Rosey. She had a feeling she would be a lot bigger since the last time she saw her. She was glad she had left a lot of extra food. When she got to the pen, she saw she would have a lot of cleaning to do. Rosey had gotten a lot bigger, but she had also made a big mess.
Mackenzie quickly went to get some supplies to clean up the pen. It took her a while, but she finally got the pen completely clean. She went to go put the supplies away and wash her hands. When she was done, she grabbed some food for her Streeler and filled up the plate where it was before. She then sat and stroked Rosey's shell for a little while.
Mackenzie smiled at Rosey, who was green at the moment. She then looked up at the clock and realized it was almost dinner time. "I have to go. See you later Rosey." She then headed out of the nursery and back towards the school.

Cela nodded thoughtfully in agreement, "But... what if he just drinks all of the first one he comes to? Maybe we should put a little of each mixture on a dish so we can still see if there is a preference without having to take into account the instinct of the baby to just have all of the first one that gets to his mouth? I figure..." Cela looked at Copernicus uncertainly, "I figure that after all of the dishes are empty, Tiberius would go back to the dish he preferred most?"
Celandine had her notebook and quill ready to record the results.

| Double Agent Stamps! Abby leads Marmalade around the grounds the same way you would lead a dog around. She wants Marmalade to learn who the boss is here. It will come in handy when Marmalade get bigger. Abby won't be able to control Marmalades movements with brut force. She will have to rely more on her ability to order Marmalade around. |

Celandine had her notebook and quill ready to record the results. "That sounds good. I'll put a bit on each dish, just enough to give him a taste, and then I'll refill the dishes and see where he returns first. Let's leave them in the same order each time so he always knows by taste which bucket is which. We can rank them in order, so if he always goes to the same bucket, we can take that bucket away and see where he goes second and so on," Copernicus put a handful of mash on each plate and stepped back to give Tiberius a chance at the plates.
Tiberius snuffled at each plate in turn and seemed to eat some off of every plate, except for the fermented apple juice. He pointedly ignored that dish altogether. Once the mashes were gone or smeared off the dish, Tiberius gave Cela and Copernicus a rather intelligent look to let them know he was still hungry.
"Hold on, buddy," Copernicus hurriedly refilled the dishes before Tiberius went looking for the buckets. The little foal's nostrils flared before he headed for the barley mash. "That was almost without hesitation."

| Double Agent Stamps! Despite her best efforts Marmalade still wasn't getting the hang of walking with a lead. "I know it's hard. You just want to run free, but you're still so small, and there are other animals in the paddock right now. I tell you what. If you will do one more time around the paddock, I will try and create a sort of play pen for you. You can run around and play while I muck out your stall and fill your food bin. Deal?" Abby can't believe she's waiting for Marmalade to answer her. The abraxan acts like she understands me. I must be crazy. Marmalade isn't pulling in the oposite direction of the lead so much. Well, let's add some speed to our exercise. Abby starts a slow run around the paddock letting Marmalade get her heart beat going. |

"That was almost without hesitation." Celandine made a list of which bucket was which, drawing a diagram of them and the dishes before using her wand to charm each bucket and dish a corresponding colour and number combination. Cela watched in interest as Tiberius declined the fermented apple and went for the barley mash straight away the second time.
"Interesting." Cela noted, writing that down, "Shall we try with Cassiopeia?"

| Made of Awesome | Ern-la the Best-wa | TZ's Apogee "Definitely," Cope pulled Tiberius around to munch on his dish of mash and filled a new one for Cassiopea. "She's bigger than he is. I suppose that means she's a little bit older? I wonder where Professor Morgan got them." He seated himself in the hay next to Tiberius and began to take his own notes on the event.

Cela agreed, "I think only a few weeks older- her wings seem stronger and she's more steady on her feet. And her colouring is slightly different; I wonder if they are from the same area or not? That might effect their preferences too." Cela suggested, leading the abraxan over to the dishes. She refilled them and led Cassiopeia to each one, "Ohh you don't like the apple either?" Cela crooned softly, watching her sniff the fermented mix once and pull away.
After Cassiopeia had licked at and nosed all the mash, she nickered softly and expectantly. Cela filled the dishes again and let the foal go.
Cassiopeia went to the corn mash first before going for the barley as well. Celandine made a small noise of interest before catching hold of the foal and bringing her back to the stall, "Maybe a mixture of barley and corn mash for this one?" Cela suggested, "And then we can gradually increase the mash concenration and decrease the butterbeer as we go along?"

I'm not convinced the rye mash is completely out, but I certainly recognize they didn't prefer it. What is the ration of butterbeer to mash right now?"

Cela checked her notes, "Well, its 4 parts Butterbeer to 1 part mash right now. Perhaps we start them on a mixture of corn and barley mash with butterbeer and in a month or so test again?" Cela caressed Cassiopeia's wings absently.

| Double Agent Stamps! Abby gets her heart going too. She stops panting for breath. "I'd say you're in better shape than I am Marmalade. I think that's enough for one day. I've got to catch my breath before I can muck out your stall. It's a dirty job but someone's got to do it. Let's see where I can set you up an abraxan play pen." Abby lets out some of the lead, so Marmalade can move more freely. She spots an area near the barn. It has a fence on two sides, so Abby will only have to create a barrier for two sides. "I think that should do nicely. It shouldn't take me over about 30 to 45 minutes to muck everything out." Abby takes out her wand and makes a circular motion around the area she want to enclose. She says "Barrere!" An invisible barrier forms from wall to wall. Abby walks Marmalade over to the barrier. She performs a slicing spell and create and entrance. Marmalade and Abby walk into the area. "Here you go. You can kick up your heels and run to your heart's content. I'll be back when I'm finished with my work." Abby removes the lead, walks back to the opening and closes the whole. She then heads back to the Magical Creature Nusery. |

Celandine smiled brightly, glad that was sorted. She reluctantly gave Cassiopeia another scratch before looking toward the door. "We... should probably head back. I have some homework to do." Sort of. More like research. Celandine stood up and attempted to make the hay a little more comfortable for the Abraxans, unnecessarily... she was actually looking for excuses not to leave.

Celandine cocked her head slightly in invitation before picking up her things and heading to the door. She stopped and waited for Copernicus and waved goodbye to the Abaxans.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Twilight McDonahue Hodges First Year |
Twilight entered the nursery, she still had tears in her eyes. She walked softly down to the cage and opened it.
Dusk was looking at her with what she felt was sad eyes. Dusk lifted her fac towards her but made no attempt to waddle onto her hand. It still looked like he had not eaten ot drank anything. Twilight carefully lifted Dusk out of his nest and cuddled him in her arms.
Dusk seemed to nestle into the crook of her arm and went back to sleep. Twilight settled herself down leaning against the cage, trying to talk softly and comfort Dusk in a soothing voice.
Dusk nestled into her arm even more , so that Twilight covered him gently with her scarf and watched him trying not to waken him. As she sat there watching him, her eyes started to droop and she fell asleep with Dusk in her arms.

Via for the second time went to check for her baby. She had brought book about magical creatures and she bounced her way to his pet. Seeing the small creature this time she got excited and carried him again, cuddling him like a baby. "How's my dear little pal?" Via asked Cid, as if he would be able to answer. She wondered whom are the other students who got an imp as a pet all through out.
Via studied Cid for a moment and thought, he must have increased in size, the last time he was a bit smaller. He brought out her notebook and documented her observation about her little imp. She thought about muggle hospitals with nurses who have to care for all the babies inside the nursery. "i wonder how big you'll be after a couple of weeks," she said. As she propped the book on the ground, "it says there imps are six to seven inches tall."
She thought Cid might be hungry now and she searched her knapsack for the sweets she bought at Hogsmeade. "you might want some of this," she said but hesitant to give Cid one. Well, she wasn't really sure on what food to give him so perhaps she'll consult her sister who works at the ministry before giving him the sweets. Instead Via brought out some grains and handed it to Cid. Cid accepted the food. And Via watched him enjoy the meal.
She noticed Cid was tying to grab some of the sweets lying on the bag. "You want one?" she asked, "okay..." she grabbed for one chocolate frog and ripped the pack open. Handing the sweet to Cid, he eagerly grabbed for it. "I think you love it," she said smiling. Cid was actually living in a marsh and she thought, Cid must have love damp areas. AS time passed by and she have to go again. "I hate to leave you, Cid, but it's time for me to go again. I'll see you tomorrow." She almost gave the imp a hug. "Be good boy," Via told him. She watched Cid go back to his home and when she could no longer see him again, she started her way out of the nursery.

It was surprisingly cold this morning as Freya walked down to the nursery to tend to Noor. The ground under her feet crunched with frost as the girl quickened her pace to reach the doorway sooner.
After entering the nursery, Freya realized how few students were in there at this time of morning...there was only one student actually. She headed toward Noor's cage and glanced at the other animals that were also nearby. Freya paused in front of Noor's cage, and stared down into it, her pale eyes examining what was in front of her. 'No way...' She put on a pair of thick gloves and reached inside the cage, pulling a rather large knarl out of their sleeping box, which until now had been fairly roomy for the animal. "My goodness." Freya said as she held the knarl up in front of her, "You really have grown fast. I can't believe it." Noor gazed back at Freya with familiar black and beady eyes, her little nose wiggling as she sniffed the air around her. The last time Freya had been down to visit was a week ago, and Noor was just big enough to need the assistance of two hands to be held. Right now, she would definitely be needing two hands. Noor seemed to have had a growth spurt, and was now the size of a small cat. "I guess this is one of the things that makes you so different from hedgehogs eh?" Freya said to Noor as the animal stretched out her short neck to smell Freya's hair. 'Got to be more careful with her now. Even her spines are much tougher...almost like steel nails.' She allowed Noor to walk around on the old blanket she had brought, and spread it out on the floor. The knarl waddled around for a while before begining to scratch away at the blanket in attempts to tear it to shreds. "Hey, hey, hey." Freya said, pausing from her cleaning of the cage. "You stop that. Since when have you been destructive?...Teenagers..." She grinned a little bit as the animal looked up at her with those endearing black eyes, then gave a yawn and made to walk around the rest of the nursery. 'Oh great.' Freya thought as she turned around and spotted, Noor about twenty feet away, and trying to bite open a bag of carrots that another student had left out the night before. Freya walked over and took the bag away, to which Noor responded with a whining sound. "You'll be fine...come here." Freya said as she picked up the young knarl, who began to sniff the collar of Freya's robes and then made to nibble at the shiny blue pin that was attached to the fabric. "No!" Freya responded and brought the knarl a little farther away from her. "You don't chew that. That's bad." She tapped the end of the knarl's nose, and was rewarded with a sneeze that ended up being sprayed all over Freya's face. "Ugh..." She wiped away the snot and other liquids with the end of her sleeve. "You are so troublesome sometimes. And I think you know that too." Freya couldn't help but grin as she put Noor back into her cleaned and refilled cage. The student took a few notes on todays visit and looked back up when she heard a clanging sound.
Noor was banging the door of the cage by taking hold of the bars with her teeth, pulling it back, and then releasing it. As Freya looked up, the knarl stopped and stared back as though to say, 'I want to come out again. Please....' Freya placed her hand next to the cage and watched as Noor tried to lick her fingers, then dug the shavings away from the door. "You have to relax, I'll be back tomorrow. I promise." She placed a couple of extra berries into the knarl's food dish and packed away her things. As Freya turned and walked to the door to leave she looked back around, only to see Noor standing on her hind legs against the bars watching Freya as she left. After a moment the animal went on all fours again and waddled to her box, where she crawled inside and curled up, preparing herself for a nap.
Freya sighed and quickly left the nursery, 'I hate when things get too close to my heart.'
