Come send a note or letter using your own owl or any of the school owls. Owls line the walls in nooks and on branches. Pellets, old animal skeletons, and belladonna berries are on the floor.
There are a few pieces of parchment, a ragged quill, and a dried-up bottle of ink on an old wooden desk in the corner should you need to add a postscript to your letter.

But nevermind that, there was other vital information being shared here. For example, what kinds of things Davie TRUEBRIDGE knew about him. Thick-ish blonde hair? Yeah well, that made sense. Gryffindor, also made sense. Prefect who would most likely make Head Boy??? Truebridge thought he'd most likely make Head Boy? How. He got a boy KILLED. Ahem. That one made him raise his brows slightly, though he didn't say anything quite yet. Once had a detention with... Oh. Uh. Well. Um. Not exactly with her.... But yeah, she had shown up at the end to take their badges away. Though that made it sound even worse so YEAH let's go with that. He had detention with her once. Yup.
But Zander thought that Davie would end right then and there... Except he didn't. And the last thing he said made Zander stop completely for a moment. Y'know ever since the forrest incident had happened, brave wasn't really a word Zander would've associated with it. He would've used words that other people had used, namely "stupidity" and "irresponsibility". But Truebridge thought it was... Brave? Well, whether it was the Headmistress who had said that part or Davie who had added it in, he wasn't quite sure. But either way. Bravery was something he had never associated with the incident before.
He stayed silent for a few seconds. Bravery?
But then he straightened his back a little bit, letting his face soften. "Yeah, it's true," he said with a determined sort of look. "All of it." Especially the bravery part.... Could this be? Was Zander Adair finally coming to the realization that he was actually in Gryffindor for a reason? Did it really take all seven of his years and an eleven year old who could potentially read minds? Yeah, maybe.
"Y'know, kid... You're not all that bad," in fact, Zander just decided.
Ruh-roh, Zander Adair was being awfully quiet about all the things Davie had said. Wasn't any of that description of him true? His mum hadn't said that Zander was quiet or shy for a reason, so maybe he was just worn out from all of Davie's earlier antics????
Finally, the Head Boy said something! Davie blinked and adjusted his glasses with a nervous chuckle. "Uh, thanks. You're actually pretty fun for a prefect." Even if he hadn't been good-looking enough to get Head Dude like Benzi Rider. David gave a nod of approval to the Head Boy.
"So are there any really slow owls up here I should avoid...?" He had lots he could tell Genny now!

As she watched the owl flew to Dimitri, the brunette girl decided to stay here for a while and pet some owls. Those owls were cute, weren't they? She didn't have owl because her parents only allowed her to own one pet, either it was owl or another familiar. She chose to own a cat that she named it Preston and she loved it. And she thought that having Preston as her pet was enough.
Ava grabbed something from her pocket, perhaps there were things that she could feed the owls. Bertie botts, hopefully they're gonna like them. She put some beans to her palm and offered it to the owl near her. Hehehehe, it's so cute watching it eating the Bertie botts beans. She was distracted by feeding the owls and didn't realize that there's someone called out her name. Once she turned back, she noticed that Henry was there. "Oh, Hi Henry!" She smiled to the Hufflepuff boy. "Yeah, I just sent one to my brother." It seemed like he wanted to send one too since he had the parchment. "How's you? Haven't seen you around lately," Maybe because he's in Hufflepufff while she's a Gryffindor and Teddy in Ravenclaw... Sigh, Teddy. Ava was still mad at her twin brother.
Henry smiled back as Ava turned her attention on him. "I'm doing pretty good." It was helpful that he had seen his family not that long ago for his sister's wedding. "How about you? Do you like being in Gryffindor?" It made him a little sad that neither of the twins had gotten sorted into Hufflepuff along with him but at least they wouldn't stop being friends. "Yeah, I guess I'm still trying to find my way around this place." He was trying to do a lot of exploring lately without getting lost, and it seemed like there was something new to discover every day.
"So which one of these owls is best to use?" Henry looked up again at the rows upon rows of perched birds. His family had a nice tawny owl that they used at home, but he wasn't sure if different kinds meant different things. What did Ava use? Maybe he should use the owl that she was feeding her candy to...

She smiled at Henry. "I'm good too! Really enjoying Hogwarts and Gryffindor of course." Ava was proud being a part of the lion since the students, especially the older ones were nice and helpful. And not to mention she's the only Gryffindor in her family, that makes her being one of a kind. "But I missed Teddy." Her smiled faded once she mentioned her twin's name. She was still mad that Teddy was more focused into his study and slightly abandoning her. It's not about them being in different houses. Well, Ava did accept that fact. But not being in the same house didn't mean that they had to be separated and not care about each other, right? "How's Hufflepuff? You got some cool seniors there." Yeah, there's Adi and Henric who were her favorite seniors.
She continued feeding the owl with Bertie botts. "You don't have an owl, do you?" Because the Puff boy just asked her which owl did he have to use. Ava didn't know much about owls since she didn't have one either. "I just fed this one, so maybe it's ready to fly to your destination wherever you want." That's the logic, right?

Pretty fun for a Prefect? Yeah. YEAH. Zander reckoned he was PRETTY FUN for a Prefect. HA. "Thanks But just so you know, most of the Prefects are 'pretty fun'," felt like Soph would slap him in the head if he didn't defend her honor right there. Ahem. "Except maybe that Newell bloke, but I hardly even know him." Maybe it's because the Slytherin wasn't fun. Who knew? Not Zander.
Slow owls? Zander looked around the owlery, surveying the available ones. "Nah, but watch out for that guy," he pointed at one particular owl perched over yonder. "He bites." Mussing his hair, the Gryffindor looked at Davie curiously, "Who are you writing anyways? Your mum?" And more importantly, would you mind leaving out the bit about convincing the Head Boy that you could read minds? Thanks.

Henry smiled and nodded as Ava confirmed that she was doing well and enjoyed Gryffindor so far. He wondered what kind of different experience he might have had he been sorted into another house. He supposed he'd still make friends but it would just seem weird to be in a house that he wasn't expecting. He frowned sympathetically when she mentioned Teddy. He figured that must be hard for them to be in separate houses. "You still get to see him a lot though?" Or he hoped for her sake. "We should all do something together." What exactly, he wasn't sure, but it would be fun if they all hung out and maybe make the twins feel better seeing each other more often.
"Oh, Hufflepuff's pretty cool," he grinned, affirming the sentiment. "Yeah.. our prefect, Adi, is really nice. Well, everyone is... there is a lot of cool people there." Older students and ones his age too. He couldn't see himself fitting in as well in another house so he was really glad he got Hufflepuff.
The first year watched Ava as she continued to feed the owl her candy and he shook his head to her question. "No.. my parents have one, but he's at their house." He didn't really expect them to let him have him for school, but it might be a nice idea for them to buy him one in the near future. He nodded as he looked back at the owl. "Yeah, okay.. you might be right.." It made as much sense to him as anything. Cranky, hungry owls might not be as willing to deliver mail. Tying his rolled up parchment to the owl's leg he patted its head. "Ready to fly? Can you take that to my parents' house?"

"They are?!" Davie looked up at Zander with wide, somewhat trusting, eyes. "I thought the Head Babe and the Head Dude were supposed to be the fun ones." You know, Evie and Benzi! The Head Boy and Head Girl were the more serious, studious, smart ones. Having no idea who Newell was, Davie just bobbed his head to show he agreed. Sure sure, no fun in the Snake house.
He followed the Gryffindor's gaze toward the owl that bites, giving the bird a big ol' stink eye for not being friendly to the students. "Noted." No way was he going near that one. His letter though, he had almost forgotten over by the window. Davie picked it up and quickly jotted down a few details about meeting and mind-reading the Head Boy, then rolled it up.
Was he writing to his mum? Davie just smirked. "Naaaaaaaaaah. Not today."

Zander nodded thinking of all the Prefects he knew. Sophie was like the most fun person he knew in the entire universe, Adi was pretty fun yeah, Puck was loads of fun... maybe not everyone's type of fun but yes fun, Norah was fun once you got past the sparkle obsession, Dot was dating Kyroh and Kyroh was fun so Dot had to be fun by association... Still didn't know about the Newell guy... Or Benzi for that matter, but it was a good 4 out of 6, so yeah. They were a fun lot. They were 2/3 a fun lot. Which was the majority. So FUN all over.... Ew, did Zander just do math outside of Arithmancy? Weird.
But the next bit Davie said was probably even weirder. Head Babe and Head Dude? Uh? He gave the first year some serious brow-raising action right there. "Okay, now you're just making stuff up," and no, Zander would not be convinced that there was in fact a position for Head Babe and Head Dude. "I mean, seriously I'm flattered 'n all... and I'm sure Soph will be too, but I reckon Botros wouldn't be too happy if people went around calling his Heads some weird nicknames." The thought did make him smile though, the only nickname he thought he was capable of achieving was definitely Head Screwup.
Ahem.
Zander attempted to read over what Davie was writing, but before he could make out any words other than 'Head Boy' the parchment was all rolled up. Rats. "Oh," he nodded, still not entirely convinced. Who else would he be writing to, huh?

What, had Davie said something wrong? He read the Head Boy's face with an equal expression of confusion. "I'm not making anything up!" he protested lightly. Wait, did Zander think he was the Head Dude? "Noooooo, nonononoooo," the first year chuckled. "Evie is the Head Babe, and Benzi is the Head Dude! Isn't that how it works?" Oops, he wasn't supposed to tell anyone about these titles, that was what the Head Babe had said, but he'd forgotten that part until just now.
Uh huh, some things Davie could keep secret. He walked over to a different owl and after giving it a few gentle strokes to befriend it, gently attached the scroll to its leg. "Genny Tate, no rush or anything," he told the owl quietly, sending it on its way before turning back to Zander. "So, do you know what you're doing after Hogwarts?"

The young lioness shook her head when Henry asked if she could still see her twin brother around. "Not really, though." She said truthfully. "Teddy, he's..." such a jerk, but she didn't want to say that in front of him. "He's busy catching up with classes and locked himself in the library. So I just saw him around the classes." He's just very passionate with studying, Ava understood that. But she just didn't understand why he put his study on the top priority rather than seeing his twin sister? Well, maybe she needed to get used to it. "That's such a great idea." He, Teddy and her doing something together.... Maybe hanging out at the kitchen and eating ice cream since that was how they got closer together, right? And talking about Quidditch or gobstones.
"I like Adi. He's one of my sister's best friend." Well, she and Adi got along not because of Zhenny though. They had a lot in common like football and pranks and anything else. "Also, you guys get the closest access to the kitchen. So when in the middle of night you get hungry, it's not difficult to sneak out there and grab some snacks." But it's not that she disliked being a Gryffindor. Hell, Gryffindor is great and she really fits in there though she disliked the fact that she had to share the dorm with the snob Dora Umbridge.
"But do you bring any pet to Hogwarts?" Since he said that he didn't have owl.

"Genny Tate, no rush or anything," he told the owl quietly, sending it on its way before turning back to Zander. "So, do you know what you're doing after Hogwarts?"
......? No, no those positions were definitely made up. But he waited for the explanation before arguing again. How kind of him, right!? Ahem. "Uh, Evie as in Evie Shacklebolt?" No, no she was not Head of anything... That's why she was so mad at Sophie all the time. "Uh, hate to break it to you kid... But Benzi's just a Prefect and uh," what did Head Babe and Head Dude even mean? Because Zander was lost. "I'm no Botros, but I'm pretty sure Head Babe and Head Dude are made up positions...." He gave the kid a strange sort of look.
Zander may have believed that Davie could read minds, but this was a stretch. He wasn't THAT gullible, okay? Especially because being promoted to Head Boy meant that Zander had to read the rules five different times okay so technically he only had to read it once, but he fell asleep every time he tried so five times did the charm ahem. And no where in the rules did it say anything about a Head Babe and a Head Dude. So someone was clearly trying to pull something over on this poor Truebridge offspring. Sorry, mate. Happens to the best of us... clearly."I guess someone thought you're gullible too," #throwbackthursday to that time someone thought Zander was--OH WAIT. Oh how the tables turn.
Genny Tate? He listened to Davie instruct the owl, but didn't really recognize the name so he let it go. So the kid was telling the truth about something... "Er..." That was the question of the year, wasn't it? "Not exactly...." He still had a little time. Not much... But a little. "Sophie thinks I should try teaching." As in Sophie Brown, but he surely knew that.

Having put it off for long enough Hady entered the area where the school owls were held having left Riddick home with her father. Coming up here always made her miss her own owl even more. Making her way straight to the back she found the one owl there she normally used now. A friendly one. One that knew where he was going.
Removing an owl treat from her pocket she unlatched the door to the owls cage. Offering up the treat in her palm the fourth year patiently waited on her owl friend to come out. "Hey buddy, I hope you don't mind but I have two letters for you today. One for my father and one for my friend Lux." Hady kept her voice soft as she smoothed her free hand over the owls brown feathers.
"Enjoy your treat though first I'm in no rush." She wasn't. The letters would get to where they needed to go that much she knew. Plus right now she was content to just stand here and give some attention to the owl perched on her arm completely ignoring any owl 'messes' that might be around her.

It was coooold. It was cold. Sooooooosoooo cold. Soooosoooo cold. WHY WAS IT SO COLD? Kyroh was literally freezing his butt off. Literally. The fifth year was 95% sure that if he were to sit down he'd slide right off a chair because his butt would have been frozen to ice. That was possible right? With his hands shoved under his armpits he glanced around the owlery. Which owl could send a message quick?? How would he know?? HE WAS TOO COLD TO THINK ABOUT THIS!
...Had the castle been frozen over again?

Maggie had one more letter to post before going home for Christmas. She couldn't exactly send owl post from their apartment. So she was going to have to go to the post office in Diagon Alley to post her Christmas presents for her friends. But this letter wasn't really a Christmas letter so she could send it now.
Wrapped in her warm winter coat and wearing multiple sweaters underneath, Maggie hurried up the stairs to the owlery. Why was it so cold? Seriously? Couldn't they just put heating charms over the entire castle? AND grounds??
That would be amazing.
Okay, but all she had to do was find Zeke's owl, give it the letter and then get back inside. "Oh. Hey." Only she wasn't alone in the owlery. "Kyroh." Maggie smiled upon seeing the Ravenclaw and took a few steps closer to him. Probably one more than necessary but it WAS really cold in here.

That owl looked like it was sleeping, and the other one it was close to it's death bed, and the one beside it looked like it had frozen over, the THAt one.....that one looked like it would peck his eyes out. Was that the leader of the owl Mafia? Kyroh had his head tilted slightly, gazing at the mean owl that gazed back when he heard a voice. Turning around he beamed. "Maggie!! The fifth year beamed and quickly wrapped his arms around the girl.
Shhhhe was smart. Wearing her jacket. He really should have done that.

Yaaaaaaaas. "Hiii." Hugs. Maggie liked hugs.
Especially on a day like today.
Although she soon had to realized that Kyroh didn't exactly provide her with a lot of body heat even while they were hugging. Nonetheless, she hugged him back. Pulling back a little she didn't let go of him just yet. "How are you not frozen yet?" Like. Boys. Seriously. Did they not think about what the weather was like before going outside? She hugged him again, just in case.

Normally he'd let go after a really good hug, but Maggie was WARM was letting go probably wasn't going to happen anytime soon! As she pulled back he grinned sheepishly. "I don't know! I put a shirt on. And a sweater! And I had no shirt on in my common room, so I thought i'd be okay." Clearly he was wrong. Clearly. Because right now even his bones felt cold.

Wait...rewind...what was that he'd just said??
She blinked, then gave him a both confused and amused look. "You don't wear a shirt in your common room?" Like.....what??
As she stepped back, Kyroh was once again engulfed in the cold. Sigh. He guessed thats what he deserved for not bringing his coat. Next time he'd remember, but right now it was one of the worst feelings ever. It really didn't remind him of-OH there was a spell for this!! Fumbling to pull out his wand, Kyroh looked up once she started speaking.
They could share her coat? Wait-no?
"No usually no?" He titled his head slightly and grinned innocently. "Why would I?" Clothes were uncomfortable sometimes.

Maggie blinked again, but grinned back at him. "You don't." She repeated. This was funny somehow. She eyed him for a moment, trying to wrap her head around this. "Really?" Like. Just....what?
Why wouldn't he? "Because!" Maggie laughed, not quite believing that she was having this conversation. "Because there's like other people and stuff." She wasn't...judging really, it was just a ridiculous notion to her.
"People are always dressed in our common room." Clearly.

Making her way straight to the back she found the one owl there she normally used now. A friendly one. One that knew where he was going.
Removing an owl treat from her pocket she unlatched the door to the owls cage. Offering up the treat in her palm the fourth year patiently waited on her owl friend to come out. "Hey buddy, I hope you don't mind but I have two letters for you today. One for my father and one for my friend Lux." Hady kept her voice soft as she smoothed her free hand over the owls brown feathers.
"Enjoy your treat though first I'm in no rush." She wasn't. The letters would get to where they needed to go that much she knew. Plus right now she was content to just stand here and give some attention to the owl perched on her arm completely ignoring any owl 'messes' that might be around her.
Why did he have to climb all the way up to the Owlery? Why couldn't his owl come to him? He would only do that when there was a letter to deliver, not to seek them out. Yes, rationally Olly knew that it would be impossible for the owl to know when he wanted to send a letter but he should. Because Oliver hated the stairs.
Yet, he climbed up to the Owlery every week. His letter to Colin in hand, Olly made a beeline for his owl. He made sure to watch where he stepped of course. His dads would not be pleased if he got poo all over his shoes. He wouldn't like it much either.
Hey! Where was his owl? He was not in the usual spot, and Olly couldn't spot him anywhere else in the Owlery either. Had Ellery sent anything recently? Or was he just out hunting for mice or just flying around? Olly decided to wait around for a few minutes, to see if his owl would come back. He wanted to be able to send his letter today. But just standing there was so booooring. He glanced around, but there were not many people around. Not much interesting going on. But there was a girl near him.
"Who are you writing to?" He asked, trying to make conversation to pass the time.

Gently stroking the owls feathers Hady looked to the side when she heard someone speaking to her. "Hmm?" she hummed quietly blinking at the younger snake. There was a lot of younger snakes this year it seemed. "Oh the letters. I've written to my father and a friend that didn't return here this term." Lux. She missed the older girl a lot and couldn't wait until Hogsmeade weekend when she could meet up with her friend.
"Who were you sending a letter to?," she asked softly trying to keep this little conversation going between them.

What did she mean she didn't return? Oliver scrunched his eyebrows together in confusion. "Where did she go?" She obviously wasn't dead if she was receiving letters. It would make sense if she had graduated, but the girl's choice of words made it sound like she should have come back and just didn't. But that didn't make any sense to him.
"My brother. I write to him every week." It was nothing like being able to see him though, like he had been able to. Oliver missed Colin a whole lot. As much as he loved Hogwarts, he was looking forward to being able to go home and see his brother.

"She choose to remain home for her final term. Her parents are home schooling her." Surely it wasn't even close to being here at Hogwarts but Hady could clearly understand the reasoning behind why Lux wasn't able to return. And though she deeply missed the older girl she understood.
Aaww that was nice. He wrone his brother. If she had siblings herself she'd do the same. Only she didn't have any. "That's really cool. Are you very close with him?" That was likely a dumb question just then. If he wasn't he wouldn't write to him weekly.

"Oh. That's weird." Was it? It did seem like a weird thing to him. Not many people did something like that, right? But as soon as he said it he realized that he maybe should not have. He didn't want to come across as insulting this girls friend. Oliver quickly added on his final question, to try and make it better. "How's she going to take her NEWTs?"
"Yes. Very Close. I have one sister and one brother and we're triplets and we're very close. My brother Colin is being homeschooled," he added. It wasn't that weird for someone to be homeschooled, but it did seem weird that they would suddenly stop attending Hogwarts in order to do it. Who would want to stop attending Hogwarts anyway?

It was only weird to him since he most likely had no idea what had happened the year before with the Acromantula. Sighing softly Hady looked to the younger boy. "Not exactly, no. There was an incident last term and she could've been harmed much worse or even killed. So I would say she has every right to not want to return." Everyone that was here last term had that right, herself included. She couldn't not come back though. Hogwarts was her home. "Honestly I have no idea how she'll take them." That was a good question.
Triplets. Interesting. Like the Valentine girls. Only one sibling stayed home. Now that was a little...strange. "Oh, how come he didn't come?" Why would two siblings go to a school and the other stay behind. Especially triplets.
