WHO. Victoria Frobisher and OPEN
WHEN. A Friday afternoon, early in August 2001
WHERE. The Post Office, Hogsmeade
SUMMARY. Vicky tries to get some errands done, but an errant owl has other ideas.
CHALLENGE. BINGO (Post Office, Afternoon, an ill mannered owl), Backstory (Provoke)
Instead, Vicky Frobisher found herself in the middle of the Hogsmeade Post Office, attempting in vain to wrangle what appeared to be the world's most stubborn owl, who really didn't want to carry her mail, for some reason.
The annoying thing was, Vicky thought as she made another attempt to take hold of the bird's leg, the day had been ridiculously productive so far. The reason she was in Hogsmeade, rather than any other Owl Post office in the country, was because of her main reason for being here - to sign her internship contract with the WWN. She had planned, at least, to follow that up by sending off some papers she needed to give to her landlord, now that she was moving into a new flat with some of her friends. Vicky had felt so adult then, and now she just couldn't get this damn bird to co-operate. The staff were no help - at this time of year, not all that long before the return to Hogwarts, many of the Scotland-based witches and wizards appeared to be shopping up here instead, and so Vicky was on her own.
"Come ON, you stupid bird, DO YOUR JOB!" she muttered under her breath, she and the bird eyeing each other with great annoyance.
