so so so so soooooooo late >______< astronomizzle ♧ gryffinDORK | & the rest is drag ♣ #badluckDerf Where had Airey Flamsteed been, the new Unspeakable wondered? Airey Flamsteed had been imprisoned in a mirror by his captors, the Neo-Alliance, where he endured Cruciatus Curse upon Cruciatus Curse while trying to retrieve information from the department head to help propel their mission forward. When not even the combination of truth serums and Cruciatus Curses had worked, the man had thought himself to be disposable to them...but apparently they needed him alive to continue to use his hairs and likeness for their Polyjuice Potion. And then, when their own had turned against them and Airey too broken from his year of torture...they had placed him under an Imperius Curse and then remastered it with a curse performed by the Elder Wand itself.
Some, not all, of this had been reported on by the papers and was somewhat common knowledge...especially among the Department of Mysteries.
Though someone as green as Mr. Pendragon may be out of the loop. Jane was quite versed with the astronomer's plight.
For now, however, his forget-me-not-blues were focused on his fellow department head who he vaguely recalled having a bit of knowledge when it came to artefacts. The man may even, perhaps, recognize this particular one as it was rather famous to the region it had been recovered...but as soon as Airey's lips parted to speak...his gangling body was enveloped and the pin dropped to the floor with a clatter. Unlike his colleague, Airey was spun upside down with his feet in the air due to his efforts to try and recatch the pin as it slipped from his grip.
"That would be a negative," he lamented as the pin came to a stop just by Raini's feet. Hopefully the man saw it, because the tapestry had now inhibited his ability to see...and he was pretty sure his face was being covered by the arm of Gellert Grindelwald.
