Prepping for the next school year had already begun. Though a new Headmaster/Headmistress hadn't been chosen yet, some professors were already getting things in order for the next year. Hagrid was one of these professors. Rather than just teach about them this year, Hagrid had decided to really introduce the Diricawl to his classes. So after filling out order forms and applications, he'd given the papers over to Dillan to send out. As the gamekeeper, Dillan was responsible for all animals brought onto the grounds of the school, with the exception of the student pets of course.
Rather than trudging up to the owlry for a second time that day (he'd already been up to clean it a bit and pass out treats), Dillan decided to take the forms to the post office himself. It had been a while since he'd taken a walk through Hogsmeade properly, with all the work he'd been doing to the grounds to make the school look good for the graduation ceremony, and he wanted to take a look around.
Stepping into the bookshop, his papers folded and placed in his pocket, Dillan browsed around. He had never been much of a reader, but with Hagrid planning on changing up his creatures for the next year, Dillan thought it a good idea to look up what he could about the new creatures. Hopefully they'd be nothing too dangerous.
