The Bear and Barnacle

Professor McGonagall had told them time travel wasn’t unusual in this place he privately thought of as Supernatural Portal Posing As Margate (SPPAM, for short).

When he and Victoire had met the Professor on the beach upon arrival, he wanted more answers than questions—it went against his Ravenclaw nature to not interrogate the unusual lack of knowledge Minerva had about Octavia. But he suspected something else; and at the time he certainly wasn’t about to say that the concept of alternate timestreams had been discussed among him and his more eccentric colleagues. He suspects that this could be a good example of it. But that theory’s a stretch, even for the young man who enjoys dabbling in the stuff better left to Unspeakables.
