Default Owlery


At the very top of the West Tower is where all owls, whether belonging to you individually or the school, reside. As you ascend the tower and its many stairs, constant hooting can be heard and you can feel the temperature gradually dropping. Once you open the door, you can feel a draft blowing straight at you because there is no glass where the windows would be. A few owls flutter in and out of the windows as the door closes.

Stepping deeper into the owlery, hundreds of owls lining the walls in their little nooks turn their head at you. Some even swoop down from their perches to say hello in the hopes that you'll give them a few owl treats that are in a closed bag inside a drawer of an old wooden desk that was placed in the centre of the room. If you investigate the desk further, you will find spare ink, quills, and parchment should you need to write a letter on the spot if you aren't here to just check up on the owls. Pellets, old animal skeletons, belladonna berries, and owl droppings cover the floor, so watch your step.

This was the worst place in the ENTIRE castle. Nina was absolutely sure of it. She hated the owlery so much!!! And hated Navid even more for being the reason why she had to frequent it every other day. No, she didn't hate him. She couldn't ever do that, even when they weren't on speaking terms. She loved him far too deeply to ever find hate in her heart for him.

But she did hate the owls. That much she knew for a fact.

She was also very afraid of them.

Which is why she stood at the base of the stairs, mustering up the strength to go inside. It wouldn't be that bad. It wouldn't be that bad. It wouldn't be that bad.

Missa wasn't a fan of the owlery either, but she didn't hate it either - then again, she had never put too much thought into it, and that was saying something. It was a place of use and nothing else.

It was certainly not a place she had thought about running into Nina Castillo at. It was kind of incredible though, in a place of poop and feathers, she looked even more beautiful. Deciding to keep that thought to herself however, the brunette came to a stop behind her - and looked inside the place from over the girl's shoulder, "did you forget why you came here?"

Nina had opinions on most things... and if she did not have an opinion on it, she was most likely in the process of forming one. In fact, she had her mind made up within her first visit to the owlery. There were absolutely no positive opinions associated with this place. Absolutely none.

She was still working up the courage to venture inside when Missa came up behind her and gave her a scare! The Slytherin managed not to let out a squeak, but she did jump in place before turning around. "Of course not," she straightened her back, rolling back her shoulders in an attempt to look far more confident than she felt. "I have a letter." Missa's question was insulting and Nina wasn't pleased. Though she also wasn't about to go inside. ".... You can go ahead," she took a step to the side, giving the girl a sweet smile that she didn't entirely mean.

It was a weird, but not surprising - Nina was unreadable as ever, and Missa had learned to live with it. Initially she had been curious, but now it felt tiring to overthink why Nina acted the way she did.

So, nodding, the brunette returned the smile and without questioning WHY the Slytherin wasn't going in too, Missa entered the place.

Reaching inside her pocket, she pulled out the letter addressed to her dad, before looking around for a suitable owl for the job.

"Excited for the holidays?" she asked, a small mindless conversation did no harm, right?

She preferred being unreadable, though her intent was never to make people overthink it. Though she made it look like she reveled in the attention, Nina very much valued privacy. Perhaps a little too much. Sometimes she wondered whether Eiji ever shared things with Missa. How much did the Ravenclaw know about her through him? Of course she trusted it Eiji, but sometimes she couldn't help but consider the possibility.

She watched quietly as Missa walked in without any problem or hesitation. It made Nina feel a bit silly for standing outside, but she really wasn't about to go inside. Not yet.

"Extremely," she answered back without missing a beat. A lot of big things were happening this holiday. Honestly, it could not come soon enough. She was never this eager for the break, but Nina was counting down days at this point. "Do you have any plans?"

If it was someone else - they would have shared why they were extremely excited for their holidays. But this was Nina. Undoubtedly closed off on purpose.

"Not really. Christmas holidays are very family oriented, so it will just mostly be that" she said honestly, - no need to be mysterious for no reason after all. Deciding on a snowy Owl - the girl carefully approached one, and pulled out a small treat for him - gently gesturing him closer.

"Are you debating sending this letter off?" she asked, after a moment's pause. Maybe Missa could offer some help in deciding if she should or not - if that is infact Nina's problem right now.

"Oh," Nina felt a tinge of... envy. Her family never made a big deal of the holidays, but especially now that things were so... different. "Are you looking forward to spending time with your family?"

She took the last few steps so that she was just behind the doorway, still not planning to venture any further inside. Not yet, anyway. Maybe she would when Missa left because doing so now would be absolutely mortifying.

"Um," Nina almost considered lying, but instead shook her head. "I.... Don't like owls." This was, in fact, the truth. It was also the mild way to put it. She did not just dislike them, they absolutely terrified her.

Family was everything. Some part of her had perhaps taken them for granted too, but the value of it was deeply instilled into her - which why a natural smile graced her lips at Nina's next question, "yeah, I miss my dad a lot, can't wait to see him." The mother and siblings came to a close second.

Although her hands were now busy petting and feeding the snowy owl in front of her, she did not miss when Nina finally moved.

Oh.

Oh.

"Do you want me to help you?" she offered, with no judgement in her tone. "It can be .... daunting when there are so many of them around you"

Nina smiled even though it wouldn't be seen. She missed her father too, though her time would be split between parents. "I'm sure he feels the same," she replied back with sincerity.

With her new view from behind the entryway she could see how gentle Missa was with the owls. If they weren't owls Nina may have even found it sweet. But they were owls and therefore there was nothing sweet about them. The last time she had tried, she was attacked by an onset of them!

Asking for help, however, was ridiculously mortifying. The embarrassment was written plainly all over her face upon Missa's offer. Nina wanted to turn it down, but she also knew that this was Missa. Even if they weren't exactly friends, she knew the girl to be trustworthy. It was the next thing she said that made Nina nod her head. "Yes," her voice was a little softer this time. "Yes, please."
