| | Prof. Fabian Clark's Office
As you enter the spacious and slightly noisy room, you’ll find a varying array of cages lined up around the office containing all sorts of small magical creatures and reptiles. Some are anticipating the new visitor, some are curious, others are indifferent.
Around the walls, all sorts of posters are plastered decoratively from Fabian days as a Professional Quidditch Player; random team players, Puddlemere United banners, and some of his favorite matches. In between, you'll spot various creature posters; some educational, some comical. On the wall behind his navy desk, instead you'll find unique beasts and creatures articles and news paper clippings.
The office is decorated with red and blue draping; primary colors are his favorite, thus reflected in his office. Dimly lit or brightly lit. Depends on what time of the day it is or whether the creatures should be asleep or not.
All animals are caged in, don't let them out unless your caring for them! The only two animals lingering freely around his office are Bowser the chicken and Fex the goat.
Clark's office door is always open, feel free to enter for a talk or ask questions about class or homework. |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Meredith Leigh Brooks-Byron Graduated | The Other Ari | | Cookie Monster Ari was curious but now wasn't the time for sharing funny stories from the past. When Max brought up the meeting, Ari nodded. "Alex I thought I saw at the meeting but this isn't the first time I've heard her name raised in suspicion. Josh actually came to my office not long ago and asked a few questions about her." She gave a shrug and finished off her lemonade. "Perhaps there really is something to question about her."

Hogwarts RPG Name: Maximus O. Vindictus III First Year | No Touchy! ♥ demented_teacher Max nodded. "She was a bit hostile in that meeting," he said and sat his glass of lemonade down. "I wouldn't be surprised if she used a memory charm on anyone who questioned her. Maybe we can question her - perhaps ask a few students." He let that suggestion sink in but another nagging question escaped from his lips. "But has anyone even thought about looking for the missing students?"

Hogwarts RPG Name: Meredith Leigh Brooks-Byron Graduated | The Other Ari | | Cookie Monster Ari thought about that. Max did seem to have a point. "We all seem to be set on trying to figure out what's causing the children to disappear...I don't think to many have actually given thought of where they might be. There's so many things that don't make sense. I've seen the kids while they've been in the process of changing and the animals that they change into have been so different." She thought about the kids that have been to her.
"All of them have been scared, nervous and weirded out by what's happening to them, do you think that maybe they could be running away or is someone...or something is collecting them?" Maybe Alex wasn't as innocent as Ari thought.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Maximus O. Vindictus III First Year | No Touchy! ♥ demented_teacher Max was quiet for a few minutes as he thought about what Ariana just said. Finally he spoke. "Maybe they are running away . . . so they can get away from her or whoever is doing this to them. But what if they've been hypnotized to gather someplace . . . perhaps on the school grounds where they can hide because hiding them in the castle wouldn't be smart?"

Hogwarts RPG Name: Meredith Leigh Brooks-Byron Graduated | The Other Ari | | Cookie Monster "The grounds would actually make sense if there is someplace specific they're at. The castle would just not be reasonable." Ariana suddenly thought of something that made her eyes widen slightly.
"How far into the transformation do you think they get? Fully transformed, physically as well as....mentally?" That sort of scared Ari. "I mean if the cats and foxes and squirrels etc, are all in the same place...would natural predatorial instincts kick in?" She agreed with the hypnosis idea Max figured. It made sense...well as much sense as the situation could have.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Meredith Leigh Brooks-Byron Graduated | The Other Ari | | Cookie Monster "Thats an excellent idea, Max!" Ari told him with a grin. "Flying would definitely give a better view." Then she gave a sheepish look. "I'd love to come with you guys, but flying is definitely noooot one of my strong suits." She confided playing with the ends of her hair.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Maximus O. Vindictus III First Year | No Touchy! ♥ demented_teacher Max looked at his wedding ring and then back at Ariana. "Perhaps Fabian can show you a few moves," he said and smiled. "But if you don't like flying, you can wait for us in the Broomshed - it can be our rendezvous point.

Throughout the discussion, Fabian was silently stroking his jaw with his fingers. Quite lost in his own thoughts, but he liked the way his unshaven skin felt on his fingertips. His mind, in contrary raced over the few kids he actually interacted with.
"Well" he exclaimed in response to Ari's question, "during transformation the kids seem to be holding their full mental power. They were coherent in speech and their thoughts. They only reflected animal behavioral and semblance issues" he trailed off into momentarily silence. " I'd say if they did move into full transformation, they'd reflect the animal they are, however, their human mental state should be active to a certain level, if not full power".
He eyed Max, before grinning sheepishly as he remembered he once did mention his wife passing him a necklace to avoid women. "I'd be glad to assist the Nurse with any training she may require" he allowed her the same sheepish grin as Max's, "Funny how Cassandra was more worried about Doyle than the missing kids" he murmured in response. "Its not like her" he added curtly, "then again she's a Cooper".

Hogwarts RPG Name: Maximus O. Vindictus III First Year | No Touchy! ♥ demented_teacher Max nodded. "Sometimes I forget she's related to the Moron of Magic," he said and sighed. "Since she's unable to make a decision at the moment, I say we take matters into our own hands. Perhaps organize a search party of sorts? That way at least we can tell the parents that we did something...."

Akasha Balathzar | At the loony bin ❣ Ubiquitous ❣ Brain!nvader ❣ !Wake The Deadˇ "Apparently she can not.... or will not" he sighed scratching his chin this time, but his eyes grew enormously at the mention of angry mamas storming down the castle wondering where their kids disappeared to when they're not back in Kings Cross at the end of year.
"Good god! I'd rather not get into prolonged conversation with any ..." skipping the angry mamas part " ..parent on why we weren't doing our job".
"Skip the game, lets start on that search party tonight before the kids disperse any further than school grounds", Fabian stood up knocking the side table along the with the lemonade with his knees, "excuse me" he muttered as he balanced it back in place.

Akasha Balathzar | At the loony bin ❣ Ubiquitous ❣ Brain!nvader ❣ !Wake The Deadˇ "Thats a very good idea Max!" Fabian chimed, "almost everyone is by the pitch during game time", he paced around the office a few times pondering over something.
"Do you have enough brooms for everyone Max?.. I ask in concern to younger students, and the ladies of course" he shot Ariana a nod. "In the case they want to assist, but not by flying. We can use footmen and women" he smiled again in Ariana's direction, but then frowned. "We may have to ask Mr. Spray to help with the grounds... I'll make sure to clear my evening".

Hogwarts RPG Name: Meredith Leigh Brooks-Byron Graduated | The Other Ari | | Cookie Monster "It is a really good idea and it will give the friends of the missing kids something to do to make them feel more involved." She knew there were alot that were scared. "Maybe we should try to send a note out to Mr. Jones. He and I can help search along the grounds while the two of you search the skies."
She thought for another minute. "We'll have to come up with some kind of signal and time to meet back at the broomshed." Ari mentioned. "We can't keep the kids out till all hours searching."

"Of course" Fabian agreed with Nurse Ariana, "the more the merrier .. that would allow us to cover more areas too. Though please do keep an eye on him, he's rather fond of holes.." he trailed off with a smirk. He pulled out a piece of parchment and quill from his desk and passed them to the nurse, "you can start on the note, I'm sure your hand writing is fancier than mine".
"We can always use colored sparks for signals; red, blue, and green. And maybe we should terminate the search by 9pm the latest, Kids still got classes next day that should give them enough time for dinner".

Hogwarts RPG Name: Maximus O. Vindictus III First Year | No Touchy! ♥ demented_teacher Max nodded. "I have plenty of brooms that are in top notch shape," he said. "The idea about different colored sparks is good, Fabian. You should tell the kids about it." He looked at both of them. "So are we good?"

Hogwarts RPG Name: Meredith Leigh Brooks-Byron Graduated | The Other Ari | | Cookie Monster Ariana took the parchment, put the tip of the quill to her lips as she tried to figure out how to word the letter and then began writting it telling about the search idea, where to meet and what they hoped to accomplish. She looked it over again checking to see if she wanted to add anything and rolled it and handed it to Fabian. "I think that should do it." Ari gave him a smile and then nodded at Max. "I think we are. I should probably head back to the waiting room as well."

Fabian shot Max a nod, but the look on his face unmistakably pleased with the way Max ran this search. "I think we are", he took Ariana's note into his hands for a skim through then shot her a grin, "couldn't have done it better myself".
"So, I'll see you two at the shed tomorrow!" he beamed, "Max make sure elves bring out snacks, you know how hungry i tend to get around meetings".

Hogwarts RPG Name: Meredith Leigh Brooks-Byron Graduated | The Other Ari | | Cookie Monster Ariana waved to Max as he left and turned to Fabian. "See you tomorrow! Make sure your back is feeling ok." She told him giving him a smirk. "We wouldn't want you flying and searching for kids if you were feeling less then your best." Ari teased him with a chuckle and headed out the office as well.

Fabian murmured his thanks to Max, then chuckled at Ariana, "I'll try my best" he promised, "I'll try my best!" .. with more farewells, he left his office door open then moved to his small library in the corner to read up on as much information as he can.

Christian was furious; nothing was going right for him. Every time he turned around, he lost something else and the reasons behind these losses just infuriated him more and more.
He walked down the corridor to Fabian's office; he was in dire need of a vent session and Fabian seemed like a good target. He paused just outside the office door, thinking of what had just happened. He felt the need to kick something, so he quickly turned around and aimed a kick at a random object. There was a loud BANG! as his foot connected with the office door. Oh no...
That was one way of knocking.

Fabian strolled down the grounds on his way back to the office, when he heard a loud bang, that was one reason for not allowing kids to solicitate outside his office. He'll make sure to leave a chess board outside next time.
"Hello Jason, Christian" he greeted upon recognizing both boys, "what can i do for you today?" he prodded on as he opened the door to his office and motioned for both kids to go inside.

Christian strolled into the office without another word. He was slightly glad that Fabian hadn't been in the office at the time of his kick. He made his way over to a niffler cage and prodded his finger through the bars to pet one of the little guys. He needed something fuzzy to pet; he wasn't ready to pour his soul out yet - especially not in front of another student.
