Owlery

[Draco Malfoy]

Come here to send a post (if approved) or check on the well being of your owl. Also pretty good for a bit of privacy.

[Ginny Weasley]

Ginny entered the owlery, hands in pockets as she slowly made her way over to the perches, one familiar small owl letting out a delighted hoot and flying to spin around her head in happiness at her presence.

A small smile passed over her lips as she reached up to catch the animal and give him a few pets before firmly depositing him back on the perch.

"Hey Pig," she murmured affectionately, glad that *someone* at least was happy to see her, Ron having left the bird in her care as he went off Horcrux hunting. "Sorry no mail today, just some treats," she informed the wittering bird as she offered him a small owl treat from her pocket. Unsurprisingly she was not on the 'approved' list for sending mail, but she could at least come to check on the bird. Besides, honestly the unconditional love was a nice change right now.

[Daphne Greengrass]

Daphne walked up to the owlery with a letter to her parents in hand. They wanted an update on how things were at school. They expected her to enjoy this year and make the best out of it because according to her father she had some of the best teachers this year. But she wasn't so sure a bunch of death eaters were good teachers.

[Ginny Weasley]

Ginny turned at the sound of the door, mouth tugging down as she saw one of the older Slytherin's stepping into the room. Fantastic, just what she needed, another heckling session.

Daphne barely noticed the gryffindor girl as she walked over to her jet black owl. "Bring this to mother and father will you?" She asked her companion. "Hope its what they wanted to hear." She whispered quietly "and be careful." She added as her bird gave her an encouraging nip in the finger and took off.

She leaned against the window will with a sigh what what she do to just escape everything for once.

[Ginny Weasley]

"Hope what is what they wanted to here?" Ginny inquired despite herself, gaze a mix of curiosity and suspicion as she eyed the brunette, having caught the conversation the other had with her owl as she stood quietly petting Pigwidgeon.

[Daphne Greengrass]

Daphne frowned and looked at the red headed girl "nothing, please forget what you heard." She said cursing herself for being overheard. Then she straight bend herself she was a slytherin after all "do you always listen into private conversations?" She inquired. Draco would kill her if he ever found out she let herself get caught in a moment of weakness.

[Ginny Weasley]

Ginny raised an eyebrow, arms idly folding under her breasts.

"I could make a point here about how you Slytherins always seem to be doing that yourselves, but I'll take the high road and go with 'I do when they're had right next to me...' not exactly discrete you know.."

[Daphne Greengrass]

DAphne sighed DRAco was really going to kill her "Just keep your mouth shut about it will you?" she said and then made her way to leave the Owlery. She needed to be more careful when voicing her opinions Draco was right. D**m he always was right it seemed.

[Ginny Weasley]

Ginny rolled her eyes at the other girl's behaviour, typical Slytherin, giving orders and expecting to be obeyed.

"You're not exactly great at winning over people to do what you want, are you?" she snorted, turning back to Pig. "You could try being nice instead of giving orders - strange as that advice may seem to a Slytherin."

[Daphne Greengrass]

"I can't afford to be nice." DAphne whispered before taking her leave. Of course she'd rather be nice than order but she had to fit in with what was expected of her.

[Ginny Weasley]

Assessing brown eyes watched her as she went, the Gryffindor's curiosity sparked.

Sensing her diverted attention, Pig let out a plaintive hoot. A small smile curved on Ginny's lips as she looked back.

"Yeah, sorry boy... Slytherin's eh? Mental the lot of them."
