Action Scene: Harry hunts down his mum for a hug and maybe tea
Harry kicked at a rock as he made his way back to Hogwarts. The smell of ozone was thick in the air as he climbed the charred stone steps to the front door. They had been doing renovations last he checked, but he wasn't here to look into that.
Harry was here to see his mum.
Course, he suspected it might have helped had he sent an owl with a letter that told of his arrival.
Instead, he focused on watching out for mysterious holes in the floor before the great hall and ran up the now stationary stairs towards Gryffindor Tower. It was only when he was there did he realize he had no idea where his mum might in fact be.
