Default Infant Magical Creatures Nursery


Halfway between Professor Wayland's hut and the barn, you will notice a much smaller, light grey, and white barn. This is the Infant Magical Creatures Nursery. The nursery is where many infant creatures are taken care of when their parents can't take care of them. Many of these infant creatures are orphans, and Professor Wayland needs all the help he can get. If you look just inside the door you'll find shelves stocked with dragon hide gloves, goggles, brushes, clean rags, and anything else you could ever need to care for these adorable infant creatures.

Just outside the back door there are multiple pens, and stables that house the larger animals, like Abraxans, and a closed off pasture that you can let the infant creatures play or roam around in. Make sure when you put the baby creature away that all the doors are securely closed when you are finished caring for the baby creatures. We wouldn't want them to get out and get hurt!

Please come in and let the babies get to know you! Watch them grow and learn! If there is ever any issue, please contact Professor Wayland immediately.

It had maybe been 15 minutes since Kalen had come to see him after his lesson, and he was now in the Infant Creatures barn checking on the little ones before he went to bed himself. The Lunar Eclipse had been so fascinating, he was glad that Kalen came and finished watching it with him. However, Tristan could tell immediately something was wrong, but he didn't want to bring it up if the other man didn't want to talk about it.

As he locked up the last cruppy holding, he noticed the familiar silvery butterfly patronus gliding towards him, and there was an instant pit in his stomach. Soon enough a message was delivered in a haunting version of Kalen's voice:

"I've been fired. I'll be down to see you soon...before I leave."

And as quickly as it arrived, the Patronus dissipated. All the color drained from Tristan's face. How was this possible? What had happened in his lesson to get him fired? The anger bubbled up inside of him so quickly, he didn't realize that the unearthly, agonizing roar that he heard was coming from him until he had to catch a breath.

He hoped he hadn't scared any of the babies, but they were the least of his concerns at the moment. Tristan angrily stalked to the barn doors, slamming them shut behind him, and headed towards his hut, wand in hand.

Alek made his way to the infant creatures barn to post the new rule on the door. He didn't expect many students to be out here. Infants were a lot of work, after all, and these students were some of the laziest he had ever seen.

With a flourish of his wand, the parchment stuck itself to the outside of the barn door.

SPOILER!!: Barn Rules
BARN RULES:

NO ONE MAY ENTER THE BARN WITHOUT PROFESSOR PETROV AND HIS PERMISSION. PROFESSOR PETROV MUST BE PRESENT AND YOU MUST SPEAK TO HIM IF YOU WISH TO ENTER THE BARN. YOU WILL BE SENT AWAY IF HE DEEMS YOU UNWORTHY OF THE CREATURES. YOU MAY NOT VISIT YOUR PETS WITHOUT HIS PRESENCE AND PERMISSION EITHER. THIS INCLUDES OTHER PROFESSORS AS WELL.


He quickly walked inside, and pasted another to the inside of the door, noting that he was correct in assuming that no student was in this barn. He quickly walked out...he would check on the infants later.

Thus far, despite the man's attempts to seem sinister (which was perhaps more of the professor's attempt to fit in since no one who worked with creatures could truly be BAD in the 16-year-old's eyes), Derf had no real reason to distrust Professor Petrov. His private lessons had been incredibly productive and insightful, partly because the usual pleasantries he and Professor Wayland had in light conversation during tasks was omitted and prohibited, and Derf was feeling hopeful for his future despite his OWL results reflecting on him somewhat negatively - even with his resitting over the summer.

So, five minutes early like usual, Derf made his way down to not the the nursery. The man had promised something different this time and requiring far more focus than their previous sessions, so the Hufflepuff was quite keen to see what all the Creatures professor had in store for him. Would he FINALLY be able to do something more hands on and less theory and menial tasking? Holy hopping hippogriffs he sure hoped so!

Waiting diligently outside as the proclamation demanded, Derf drummed his hands on his thighs.

Alek made his way to the Infant Creatures Barn, a small box with holes cut out on the sides in his hands. He really didn't understand what Tristan was doing with this place. Why separate the infants? Were they orphaned? He probably should have read the information packets the other man left...but...it was Tristan. 'Nuff said.

As the Bulgarian made his way to the barn, he saw his young apprentice waiting outside. With a mischievous grin, he approached the young man. "Mr. Ashburry-Hawthorne." Alek said nodding his head at the young man. "If you would get the door please, my hands are a little occupied." He said making note of the box he was holding.

This would be an interesting lesson indeed.

The Hufflepuff's eyes lit up in unabashed delight and curiosity when he saw the box in the professor's hands. Of course, there was also concern considering the nature of what they would be practicing and his mind was immediately running kilometers a second in speculation for what the creature could be and what possible injury he may be learning to heal. HANDS ON! They had gone over anatomy, extensively to the point that he was apparently reciting parts of the circulatory system and proper names of bones found in the body in his sleep, recently so his thoughts naturally drifted there.

He couldn't help but feel a tiny jolt of disappointment that he was to man the door and not hold the box, but it only signaled to the 16-year-old that this meant the box's contents were delicate and passing it from hand to hand posed a risk.

"Of course!" he chirped as he immediately hopped to pull open the door and then used his body to prop it open.

He loved the smell of the nursery, more so than the barn, and there were so many good memories here with Picketta.

He didn't bother asking what was inside the box, it was a given that he would be finding out soon enough and likely be regarded as a 'stupid' question. Instead his tapped his feet against the ground to a very specific rhythm and waited for further instructions.

Alek nodded his head to the young man, but didn't say thank you. He wasn't the type to show gratitude outside of a nod and a small smile. He quickly walked through the door, Hera asleep around his neck. The weather was still a little chilly for her but he always made sure that there was a warming charm around him at all times to keep her body temperature where it needed to be. His baby wasn't going to suffer.

Unlike the poor creature in the box.

Alek headed towards the back of the barn, (box in hand where a few pain-filled squeaks could be heard occasionally), where there was a clinic of sorts was in a room just past all the infant holdings. The door was open thankfully, so he marched his way in setting the box down on the counter in the center of the room that was generally used to give creatures their shots. With a wave of his hand, lights flickered on around them.

"Are you sure you are ready for this Mr. Ashburry-Hawthorne? Now is the time to say so." If he wasn't...well that would prove he wasn't cut out for this line of work and Alek would most likely end the 'advanced' lessons.

It was all good. He hadn't been expecting any sort of thank you anyway and his attention was solely on the box clutched in the man's hands so he likely wouldn't have heard it regardless.

"Positive," he nodded without hesitation, though that pained squeak coming from the box caused his skin to goosebump and the hairs to raise on the back of his neck. That sounded...awful...whatever the creature was suffering from and it really just made the sixth year all the more determined. "I'm ready."

Alek watched Derfael, and wasn't completely surprised at his quick response, and gave him a nod. He was pretty sure that the young man wasn't going to like what he was about to see, however. Especially since he knew the young man kept one of these creatures as a pet.

"Alright, I can't tell you exactly what is wrong with this one. It's...," he didn't want to be cliche and say top secret but, "...not information I am allowed to divulge." He was still working for the Bulgarian Ministry as well. The experiments he was conducting was for his work there.

In one swift movement he removed the lid of the box and set it on the counter. Inside laid a Bowtruckle, though it was hard to tell that it was actually a Bowtruckle. It had all sorts of wounds that looked like rotting wood. There were multiple cracks in it's skin around the wounds, as if at any moment the poor little creature was going to break in two. The antenna on top of it's head that resembled leaves were almost black and one looked like it had been ripped in half. It was a terrible sight indeed.

"Your task is to heal the Bowtruckle....before it dies." He paused for a moment, "I think this one's name was Dahlia, but I am not for certain." He honestly didn't care. Bowtruckles were a dime a dozen. He stepped back a couple paces, and took a breath. "You may begin." He said quietly, as he kept his eyes on the creature.

'Not information I am allowed to divulge.' What did that even MEAN? What made this worse, to the Hufflepuff at least, was that this professor knew what had happened to the creature but by choice wouldn't tell him. What was the sixth year supposed to do without knowing the cause?! Unless it was, you know, some sort of generic injury. A broken leg from falling from a tree versus a broken leg from said tree smashing your bones still needed the same basic care and start with immobilization...

Holding his breath as the lid was remove, it took Derf several painful moments to even register that the unfortunate creature before him was a bowtruckle. Not just ANY bowtruckle either. There was a certain mark around her faded beady eyes was the give away and he felt like he had just fallen into a cactus patch, his heart being punctured a million times over by their tiny pins. Short of breath, Derf stepped closer to the table and gently rested his hands on the table on either side of her. "No...Dahlia's leaves aren't this shape..." he said softly as he knelt down so he could be eye level with her. Even with it torn in two and blackened, he knew each of these bowtruckles as well as he knew his own human friends. These were...Picketta's family "...this is Aster," he said sweetly, his pinky finger reaching out to gently touch one of her long fingers. "...it's gonna be okay."

He had been so distressed seeing her like this that the words of the professor had almost passed right through his ears. But then they hit him harder than a blow from the Whomping Willow. Before it dies.

And then he felt his blood boil.

"You did this to her," he turned towards the man, an uncharacteristic snarl to his lips like that of a rabid crup. "....why?"

Alek watched the young man like a hawk. He wanted to see how he reacted. He wanted to see how he handled a creature in this state and what he would do. Would he attempt to heal it? Or would he take the easy way out and put it out of it's misery? Oh, It could be healed, but the possibilities that the poor creature would live were......slim.

Was Derfael challenging the man's memory? "Well, I took it out of the holding that had 'Dahlia' written on it. But you know them better than I do." He said flippantly with a shrug while stroking Hera around his neck.

Then the realization dawned on the young man, and a slight twitch passed the corners of Alek's lips. "As I said, that is not information I can tell you. So if you want to try and save this creature...you'd better start trying." He looked down at the poor Bowtruckle as it whimpered, and looked back up at Derfael and gave him a sarcastic pouty lip.

If Derf had had any sort of inclination towards Legilimency and able to read the man's thoughts, the Hufflepuff may have entirely lost his cool there. The only thing holding him back from exploding, shouting, perhaps even drawing his wand, was Aster. Already in such pain and distress, he couldn't bear to make this worse for her in fueling this situation with his own emotions. Especially when....she was looking at him like that.

She was pleading with him. Pleading. And his hands instantly began moving towards some of the tools and vials of various solutions to begin.

He wasn't even going to dignify Professor Petrov's response with one of his own. It was clear he did not care about these creatures, not unless they were tools for something else. They were not sentiment beings. They weren't even beings. Allowing himself only a moment to chastise himself for calling the man 'professor' in his head (this man was a monster), Derf bowed his head to murmur a few soft clicks and chattered teeth to Aster in reassurance.

But as his hands began to move, he found them trembling too much to even know where to begin. Treating something like this wasn't like a check list. It wasn't like proofing an essay. Each part so intricately woven together. Doing his best not to cry, though his eyes did sting, he heard the feeble clicks from Aster..........and his eyes widened.

He knew there would be moments like this as a magizoologist. Not all creatures got to live full lives and die of old age - some became sustenance to other creatures, for example - and as he looked back at the bowtruckle's midsection...he just knew. Even if he were able to patch her up, somehow glue her back together there, she had been suffering like this for too long and lost too much of her life force...and there was no magic that could bring all that back. Even whole again, she wouldn't live. And just how much more pain would he inflict upon her in trying to fix her? And she was far too frail for her body not to shut down under any form of sedation.

Swallowing thickly, he poured a hearty table spoon of a sleeping drought onto a wooden spoon and gingerly slipped his pinky finger behind her shriveled neck. He winced as a bit of her skin, crackled and rotten in appearance, fell off under his touch - but it only affirmed that what he was doing, this choice, was best. Smiling at her, he held the spoon to her tiny bowtruckle lips and allowed her to drink as slowly as she needed until she drank the entirety of the spoon.

It did not take long.

Removing his little finger from behind her neck to lay her down on the table, Derf's jaw set and his hands balled into fists. He wanted to just pivot around and clock the man right across the jaw...but he couldn't act out in aggression right here. Not in front of her. But he wanted to. Instead he focused his energy on gently scooping the bowtruckle up and putting her back into the box.

"....I'm going to let the others say their goodbyes," he informed the man, not meeting his gaze and his own eyes vacant. "....and then bury her."
