As he entered the potions classroom, Devin was worried as always about what horrible thing about muggles they would be forced to learn today. ”Good morning, Profe- BABS!” He hadn’t even properly finished greeting the professor yet when he spotted his beloved tawny owl caged on his workstation. Beaming from ear to ear, Devin practically ran to get closer to Babs. Sliding into his seat, he leaned in closer to the cage to talk to his owl. ”I've missed you, Babs. I was worried you were dead.” Devin slipped one of the owl treats he had still been carrying around in his robe pockets all term into the cage for Babs to eat, still respecting the instruction to keep Babs in her cage. It hadn’t said that you couldn’t put things in the cage. The treat probably wasn’t very fresh anymore, but hopefully it would still be tasty enough for Babs to enjoy. He doubted whoever had been keeping these animals alive this whole time was offering them extra treats or giving them love. But why was Babs here in potions class? Obviously Rosier and The Hoods didn’t want students telling their parents about the cult takeover of the school. Surely they would have killed all the pets like they did to poor Mollywobbles though if they didn’t have a purpose to spare them for. As relieved as Devin was to see his owl alive, he was deeply suspicious about what they would have to do to their pets. Maybe The Hoods had spared the pets only so they could make all the students test potions on them or force everyone to feed their own pets to whatever was making those noises in the back of the room. Whatever was going on, he didn’t trust it.
