"Oi, the castle is magnificent, eh?" He put his hands on his hips, looking up to admire the beaut. They didn't make 'em like this in Canada. She was a beast! A real good lookin' architectural endeavor. Whew. Wonder how many years it took to get that pretty lady off the ground. Though it wasn't the castle he was interested in, it was hard not to get distracted by the ancient beauty. Sunny adjusted his hat while he mused. He kept his quill secured under its ribbon; his hat was an essential accessory for an on-the-go mission like this one. You want the scoop, you gotta go all out. Weather reporting is a cut-throat bizz.

That is, until she heard the sound of a super unfamiliar voice, which caused her to stall right in her tracks.

Was he talking to her? STRANGER DANGER. If she was going to meet a gruesome death, it'd probably be here and now, while she wandering off by herself and currently encountering some strange man. "Uhh, yeah, sure," she said. She could elaborate on that, but she really should be on her way.

Was this one of those door-to-door type things? "Look, I don't think they make donations," she said. "Had to do a fixer-upper a few years back." She'd never been told as much, but she guessed funds were tight after that mist clean up. "You looking to get hired? Slip your resume in between the gate with a few galleons, and I'll put in a good word for you or something."

Yes? No? "If you're looking for Hogsmeade, you missed it by a bit," she said. Either way, she didn't have the powers to open this gate, and even if she did, HAHAHAHAHAHA. Not taking detention for YOU, Sir! She shrugged. "Have a good day."


Avalon Sinclair was stressed. She had been wandering around the castle grounds for over an hour now, trying to find her cat, Shadow. The feline was infamous for sneaking away to hunt, but he had been gone for over a day, and the Ravenclaw was starting to get worried. Not to mention she had finished four pieces of parchment worth of homework earlier, only to have accidentally spilled an entire bottle of ink on it as soon as she finished. So it was safe to say that today was not going as planned. Hair falling out of her bun and robes disheveled, Avalon made it to the end of Hogwarts property. She was about to turn around in frustration when she heard some voices.

That was odd. Hardly anyone ever wandered out this far on the grounds.

Squinting into the distance (of course, she had also lost her glasses today, which made the task of looking for Shadow all the more difficult), she recognized a younger Slytherin, who seemed to be talking to a fashionable-looking man. "Isla?" Avalon asked cautiously. She had no idea who the girl was talking to, but when she got closer to them, she saw that the man was wearing an odd-looking hat. "Who's that?" she asked Isla, raising her eyebrows. Maybe it was rude to ask right in front of the man, but her curiosity had gotten the best of her.
