Any nostalgia was lost on the former Slytherin, most of his days at Hogwarts a blur and not for any reason in particular. Not that he could remember at least. But he easily returned her smile, good customer service policy and such. "Nuria, do you mind?" he scolded gently through his chuckle as he offered her a bit of scrap cloth to hold between her beak instead of his hair. It made business transactions more efficient.

Eyes back on his current customer, he cleared his throat before repeating himself - with some reluctance. He ought to just charge her the express fee.

"To Hogwarts? I can solve that riddle for you. Nothing is getting in or out from that castle. Been housing a few of the school owls here, actually." He wasn't sure about the rest but likely at the Ministry. "In fact, I've also got a stack of returned letters, parcels, and packages to sort through still and get owled out to their original senders. If you give me your name I can find them for you now."

Sorting through all that had not been on his list of priorities when he had taken over the Owl Post, so it was a rather hefty stack. At least it was all in alphabetical order.
