Who: Nate and William
When: Thursday around dinnertime, November 19th
Where: The indoor statuary garden
What: A magical mishap
One of the unfortunate things about having trasgus in residence, William was quickly learning, was constantly having things disappear and show up later in unusual places. This morning he'd discovered two of the sculptures from the indoor statuary garden, a chimera and a merman, flanking the doors to the library. They made intimidating guards, but took up rather more room than the corridor allowed, which meant students had been squeezing in between stone fishtails and giant paws all day to reach literary sanctuary.
He was returning them now to their plinths, attempting to remember which had gone where and in what direction they had faced. There were a few students around, but none he particularly cared to make inquiries of. The visitors today appeared to be a courting couple of older seventh-years, a lone Ravenclaw sprawled out at the base of a wrought stone ogre, sketching various anatomical studies, and a trio of younger Slytherin girls, possibly second-years, one of them nearly in tears over her broken wand. From the snatches he'd caught of the conversation while levitating the merman back onto what was hopefully his rightful pedestal, William gathered it had been damaged in an accident and was currently being held together with Spell-O-Tape.
"Eet haz been een my family for generations!" the distraught girl wailed to her consoling pair of friends. "Eet haz my great-great-great-great-grandmere's hair at zee core!"
