Arya was giggling now, as she watch the little owl fly circles around her. She LIKED this one. Would take him home if she thought she could sneak him out with out the two men knowing. Of course it would be hard not to notice a little hyper thing like Mangig missing. "Slow down, I have one last treat for you. Can't give it to you if your flying circles around me." Whoa. She was getting a little dizzy trying to keep up with him. Arya held out the arm that didn't hold a treat. "If you can land on my arm, Mangig I'll give you the treat. Please?" As much as she loved the little guy, there was three other owls that needed come lovin from her.

Oh Mangig.
Apparently he really liked children.
Giving Herjenmie a playful swat, TJ focused on the scops owl that was currently circling the girl like a manic bumble bee.
"He's excitable," he explained with a grin, leaning on the table with one arm readied. Once Mangig got going, he wouldn't stop for quite a while. He'd circle the girl like a planet circled the sun, but if she moved too much he'd fly right off his orbit and probably into Sully's grumpy head.
"Giggy, calm down."
The man's hand shot out to grab the owl and stop his flitting about. |

That's what she was watching the little bird fly circles around her, she hoped he would've......stoped by now. But apparently not. Maybe he didn't need another treat?
Ayra heard a voice, but couldn't connect it to a face until Mangig was no longer flying circles around her head. A goofy grin plastered on her face, she looked at the man. "'s okay, he's cute." She looked from Mangig to the man holding him. "Do you work at the Owl Post Office with...." Mr. Grumpy Gills. "The other guy or do you work somewhere else in Diagon Alley?"

However, her laughs turned into a sweet smile. She had noticed that he didn't enjoy being talked to. Which made this all the more fun. "Really though. Good luck. I know how some people can people just...so annoying."
Yes...she knew. Which was why she was trying her hardest to glare a hole through the Riddle girl she finally noticed was at the same booth. Time to leave! Just for laughs, huh? Well, Sullivan didn't find anything laughable over here. Nothing at all.
Not even that one owl with the wonky wing could make him laugh.
Glaring at the girl as she wished him good luck, he gave a snort. Who needed luck when they were strapped with a wand? Certainly not Sullivan. His eyebrows shot up as she mentioned annoying people. Well, yeah people were annoying. He has a full face of annoying right now.. "Well," he leaned up in his chair, "I'm sure there are other booths you would find more laughable than this one. Like that fashion one over there."
..and even that wouldn't make Sully laugh. Quote:

The little owl figurines he'd been planning to give out were just plain gone. And he'd tripped over some loose animal, probably someone's pet, on his way back. Sigh. Trystan, a rather fit man on the second half of his thirties, had been incapacitated by a cat.
"Sully, being pleasant?" he asked with a grin, leaning on the table behind Furmgoat. The tawny was his favourite, he'd decided long ago. Stroking the wonky wing, he looked at the kids that were eyeing the owls. "You can give 'em a treat or a pat, or both."
He failed to mention that Furmgoat made efforts to poo on people when ignored.
Which was the reason TJ really really enjoyed him. Hehe. Sullivan mumbled something as he spotted TJ walking up to the booth. So, the man came back empty handed, did he? Looking around at all the children, Sully mentally teased them since they wouldn't be going back to their dorms with an owl figurine. If he were one to smile, there would have been a big one plastered on his face.
Since he couldn't get a sandwich, these kids couldn't get a figurine.
Being pleasant? "Of course I am." And he would show him how pleasant he could be..starting with this one.. Quote:

"Sure you do." Except the Post Office? Ohhhh, now why did that NOT come as a shock? "I'm not at all surprised, to be honest," Sarah muttered under her breath, following his glare over to the poor owls.What on earth had they done to be stuck on the stall with this je-- ... man?
But she wasn't going to be defeated.This stall was her dream one.Since the first time she had seen Diagon Alley, she'd wanted to work there.In any of the shops really.Fussiness wasn't something she was burdoned with. "You know, I am actually quite interested in getting a job in Diagon Alley when I leave Hogwarts, believe it or not," and he probably wouldn't. "So I'd like you to tell me EVERYTHING the work entails.Responsiblities and such, you know .... Please?" Oh, now the man would have to talk, and Merlin forbid, be helpful. Ahem. "No, of course I don't work at all of them. All that work," and dealing with all them people "would give someone a headache." he told the girl, giving a quick glance over to TJ.
Pleasant Sully. He could do this..only a few more hours. "Bad experience with owls." he muttered. It wasn't a bad experience for him per se, more like a bad experience for the owl. That was unimportant though, since the girl had wanted information. He really wanted to tell the girl to just read the pamphlet, but he was being pleasant. "Everything the work entails." he repeated as he hoisted himself up from the chair. Dodging the owls and the other children around, he picked up a pamphlet from the table and handed it to the girl. He didn't know nor care if she already had one. "The responsibilities all differ from shop to shop. I can't tell you that you will need to know how to..scoop ice cream for example when that isn't the kind of employment you are looking into. So, before I tell you anything, how about you tell me what you are looking to do in Diagon Alley. Which shop are you interested in?" Only a few more hours.
Oh great. Now the owls were flying around.

Mangig |
Mangig had just been SNATCHED.
Restrained. Detained. SUPPRESSED. His left wing flapped fruitlessly for a minute, unwilling to just give up, before he decided to allow this... this... intrusion upon his happy time.
TJ always knew how to kill this little owl's buzz. Mangig turned his head, almost creepily far, to look at the little girl who had the treat. Hooooooooooo.
Gimme gimme gimme.

"Oh Sully doesn't work at the Post Office," TJ said, rather quickly, placing the whiny little Mangig back on his perch. Sympathy pats for Mangig then occurred, because otherwise TJ was afraid Giggy would sulk, and they already had a sulker. Sully was enough. "I work there though. I'm the Head."
He looked at the little girl and smiled at her.
"Were your interested in knowing more about it? The Post Office?" |

It was because he was pudgy, wasn't it.
He gave a baleful hoot to TJ when the man patted his wing, and considered taking flight (to poo on that girl feeding Mangig) when someone finally noticed him. And noticed him in a GOOD way!
Leaning toward her hand slowly, Furmgoat watched the girl with his big black owl eyes, almost suspiciously. As if she were going to snatch it away from him.
NOM. He took the treat from her hand. Iris folded the leaflet up and smiled as the bird ate the snack. Aww... He was so podgy and cute! Iris looked at her/him/it carefully, as if to decide on if the owl would bite her or not... He'd eaten the treat well enough. So he wouldn't.
She stretched her arm out, and stroked the feathers on the top of the owl's head affectionately. He was adorable. Iris wanted him....
But she has a cat. That is due to have a litter. So a bird wouldn't be wise. heh.
Iris looked at the two people who were manning the booth, and she smiled politely at them. " Hullo..." She said politely, "I take it you both work in Diagon Alley? What's it like? Running a shop, I mean." she asked. The Slytherin recognised them, but she wasn't sure if it was from a shop in DA or not.

Arya's eyes were on Mangig as he continued to stare at her. She knew he wanted the treat in her hand, she was just debating whether to give it to him or not, he was already so hyper. Hmm.
As the man spoke, her eyes flickered over to grumps. His name was Sully, it suited him so well. Turning she faced the man infront of her, the head honcho, with a smile, handing Mangig the last treat as she spoke. "Yes please, I like the owls." Especially this little guy, belly strokes for you Mangig. Sorry, no more treats though. "Do they deliver anything everywhere? Or just here in Europe? "

Running a shop, I mean." she asked. The Slytherin recognised them, but she wasn't sure if it was from a shop in DA or not. The little girl had picked like, the best owl to pay attention to. TJ grinned and watched as she patted Furmy's feathers, almost laughing at the paranoid fit the bird had over the treat. Furmy was... special.
"It's a bit hectic at times. Especially at the Post Office... we get a lot of mail every day to sort and send it out on time. Make sure things get where they need to go, keep the owls fed and clean and all that. Not to mention, if you're in charge of operations, there's ordering stock and keeping track of everything you have to add to the list. Making sure the books are balanced, making sure everything's accounted for..."
He realised belatedly that this probably wasn't what the little girl was looking to hear. Hastily, he pushed his glasses back up onto the bridge of his nose and grinned again.
"But really it's... a good job. I enjoy my work." Quote:

We've some that deliver over looong, looooong distances. Furmy over there-" he pointed at the Tawny, "he doesn't cross ocean, so he's restricted to a smaller area than the rest. His wing probably wouldn't let him do that anyway. But they'll deliver anything you bring to us, as long as... it's not illicit. Or, you know, dangerous to our owls."
Lookin' at you, stall-mate. Lookin' at you. Except he totally wasn't. TJ's attention was focused on the kid in front of him, totally ignoring the fact that Sully existed. Heh. |

Keeley skipped cheerfully to the Diagon alley place, knowing that it wouldn't be as exciting as the art place. But still, working at the ink shop would be funnn indeed! Anythng to do with art, really. That was why, of course, she had brought along her sketchpad.

Even though his flight had been stalled, and he was now sitting back on his perch, Mangig gave his wings a little flap and wrapped his little beak around the treat the girl was holding out.
He liked this one. She knew how to treat an owl right. His flapping stalled and he allowed her to pet his belly, head bobbing as her hand moved.

THERE. That one. The new little girl person that had wandered over. She had a book full of paper! Obviously this meant she had something for him to deliver, right? He hopped off his perch, not even sparing a second glance at the treat giver as he waddled across the tabletop toward the girl.
Letter. Letter. LETTER.
He leaned forward and nip nip nipped her hand. LETTERRRRRRRRR.
Cue leg shake.

Selena frowned. Herjenmie biting the other people was bad!! "Bad, Herjenmie! Don't bite other people!" Selena scolded. Awwwh. But he was soooo cute. She saw the owl eye the whole stack of paper. Perhaps he wanted to send something off. Why not? "So, you wanna do something for me?" Selena asked as she opened her bag. She had a letter to send off to her parents. At first she was just going to go to the owlery and send it off but this worked too. "Here, give it to my mother," Selena offered the owl the envelope.

Cue leg shake. Keeley adjusted her black fedora hat as she noticed an owl abandon some Slytherin girl hop towards her with his eyes on his her pad. What a cute little thing! She giggled slightly as he nipped her finger, even though it hurt. She could read the glint in his eyes that totally said 'YAYY! DELIVERY!!' Luckily enough, she did have something she needed to send on her. "Hey there, owl person!"

TJ looked up at the sound of a child scolding one of his owls and frowned. Herjenmie was off his perch, waddling around the table, a letter being tied to his leg.
"He won't deliver anything," he called to the girls, pointing at the letter attached to his leg. Herjenmie knew better. Sigh. Just this morning, TJ had spent a lot of time talking to the owls, as if his explanations actually meant anything to them. But Herjenmie knew better than to deliver a letter without TJ or one of his workers giving it to him, and without a stamp as well. "You'd best take it back before he runs off with it."
He paused, then belatedly added, "And Herjenmie, keep your beak to yourself."
There. He'd... scolded. Yup. |

Herjenmie watched as the girl with the notebook tied something to his leg. DELIVERY. Delivery tiiiiii- Wait.
There was no little square marky thingy on the corner of this paper.
He couldn't deliver it without that.
...oh well.
Herjenmie ignored the scoldy scoldy lady and waddled back to his perch, letter still attached to his leg. A little hop and flutter of his wings and he was sitting on it again; he pecked at the paper on his leg, but if the girl were to try and take it back, he would peck her hand.
Only TJ would be able to remove it now. Herjenmie was too fascinated by it to allow it to be taken from him.

There. He'd... scolded. Yup. Oh. Wooopies. Keeley grinned sheepishly at the mail dude, blushing. And everyone knows that when Keeley blushes, her hair also turns pink. Teehee. "Sorry Mister Owl Post guy." she called to the dude. Aaaand, of course, the owl ran off with the sketch still tied to it's leg.
Wait- IT WAS PECKING HER DRAWING?!
Oh heeeeeck no! Keeley scurried over to the owl, knowing that she was on a mission. *cue mission impossible music* She had to get that letter back.

Just this morning, TJ had spent a lot of time talking to the owls, as if his explanations actually meant anything to them. But Herjenmie knew better than to deliver a letter without TJ or one of his workers giving it to him, and without a stamp as well. "You'd best take it back before he runs off with it."
He paused, then belatedly added, "And Herjenmie, keep your beak to yourself."
There. He'd... scolded. Yup. Selena looked up. Awh. She really liked the owl. "Well... alright..." she shrugged. "Thanks for the warning," she said with a smile as she put the letter back in her bag. She really liked the pretty owl though!! Quote:

There was no little square marky thingy on the corner of this paper.
He couldn't deliver it without that.
...oh well.
Herjenmie ignored the scoldy scoldy lady and waddled back to his perch, letter still attached to his leg. A little hop and flutter of his wings and he was sitting on it again; he pecked at the paper on his leg, but if the girl were to try and take it back, he would peck her hand.
Only TJ would be able to remove it now. Herjenmie was too fascinated by it to allow it to be taken from him. The owl fascinated her. Sheesh. Maybe she should've gotten an eagle owl instead...

Wait- IT WAS PECKING HER DRAWING?!
Oh heeeeeck no! Keeley scurried over to the owl, knowing that she was on a mission. *cue mission impossible music* She had to get that letter back. Why was this new pink-haired girl person following him? If owls could frown, Herjenmie would have right then. Clearly, as soon as the other had tied this paper to him, it had become his. It was in his possession now, and until one of them got a stamp, it would remain in his possession. Peck peck peck peck.
Away with you pink-haired girl. Away.

Away with you pink-haired girl. Away. Well, this was bad. Keeley was not leaving this job fair thingie without her sketch, even if it meant that the owl would peck holes through her hands.
And it probably would
But holes in her hands were much better than holes in her art, and the girl was just as stubborn as this stupid owl. She was gonna get this letter back, because it was HERS. Pull, pull pull.

Grabby-handed little pink human child! Herjenmie bit her on the hand, letting out an indignant hoot before taking flight, taking his letter with him. HIS.

Mean owl. Keeley sucked on her bit finger, staring at the letter theif. Not cool, man. And of course, he flew off. Perfect. Feeling put out, the pink haired girl retreated, knowing that she'd have to redraw the priceless (not really) sketch before Kay's birthday. Ugh!

Sully told that little girl those owls bite. Of course when he told her that he wasn't so sure of it, but after watching the little show taking place in front of him, he was sure. He gave the girl an 'I told you so' look not caring that she wasn't the one being pecked.
He just liked to be right. Quote:

Those owls should be on a leash.

Lookin' at you, stall-mate. Lookin' at you. Except he totally wasn't. TJ's attention was focused on the kid in front of him, totally ignoring the fact that Sully existed. Heh. Arya listened to the man speak about the owls, still giving Mangig a few pats as her eyes wondered over to the tawny owl he pointed at. He was cute too, but not as cute as Mangig here. Her new favorite. "So the owls," She had seen what had happened with the Eagle owl who refused to give up his letter. She found it rather amusing up until he bit the girl. "Are really dedicated to their jobs?" And now Mr. Grumpy Gills was giving her looks. Why was he looking at her? She didn't get bit, she had the nice owl. Arya poked her tounge out at him before turning back to the nice man.
