Al held onto Drago's hand up to the Owlery. "So which owl is yours?" She asked, looking around at all the different owls.

((Mines the big burly one in the corner killing mice for pleasure... Ah, Voldemort. What a good owl.))

Drago looked around. "That one right there with the grey tail feathers." Drago said. "Come here Tallow." Drago kindly called. Tallow hooted and flew onto Drago's held out arm. He was about to pet him when he bit him on the finger. "ow, sorry for not visiting you, a lot has happened." Drago said and scrached him in his favorite spot under his beak.

((Hahah nice Aludra))
"Awww, looks like you haven't been giving him enough attention." Al giggled. "My mom uses Fawx the phoenix a lot, he usually stays in her office. We share her owl, Shadow. I'd point him out, but he can be hard to find."

Dragonia laughed at Tallows reaction to Drago "How are you doing Tallow? I missed you." Dragonia said, in the baby voice she always used when she talked to Tallow, and pet him on the head.

"Yeah, I didn't want to walk up here alone with everything going...Does he have dark feathers?" Drago quickly changed the subject from what he was going to say because it was a subject related to what happened to Al's mom.

Dragonia looked at Drago quizzically. What was he talking about and why doesn't he go into details? "I'd be glad to see him." She said to Al.

Al's face darkened for a moment when she heard that subject brought up and she turned away, then turned back again at Dragonia's voice.
"Yeah, it's a dark black owl with some white spots on his face and tail. He hides a lot though, doesn't like strangers. Usually near the rafters..." She said, pointing up at the ceiling.

Drago felt guilty as he saw Al's reaction and looked at her apologeticly. He looked up at the rafters and looked around. "Is that him in the corner with a mouse in his mouth?" he asked pointing up at the corner.

Al gave a small smile to Drago to show that she wasn't angry. It was just still a sensitive subject for her.
"Naw I don't think that's him. Too much white. That's more a white owl with black, shadow just has a small streak of white by one of his eyes and then white on the tail."

"There he is! He's right there in the middle." Dragonia said pointing up.

"Hmmm.... might be him." Al muttered. But just as she reached out, Shadow retreated further back up into the rafters. Al walked forward a bit, more towards the window of the owlery.
"It's okay Shadow, cmon, I know you don't know them....cmon, it's fine. We aren't going to make you send a letter, haha. Don't you want an owl treat?"
Shadow finally swooped down from from the rafters and landed on Al's shoulder.
"He doesn't like going on short journeys, finds it pointless. Hates being talked to like a baby, doesn't like strangers, prefers traveling at night when he doesn't have to deal with all the other birds in the sky... You're such a picky bird, huh Shadow?" She said gently, petting Shadow's back. He gave a soft 'hoot' and dug his nails into Al's shoulder gently, not enough to hurt.

Tallow gave an excited hoot and moved his head towards Shadow, indicating that he wanted and closer look at him. Drago slowly moved closer to Al and Shadow, not wanting to spook Shadow.

"I dunno if that's a good idea..." She said slowly. It wasn't that she didn't think Tallow was a good owl...but Shadow had his own way of life and could be a very proud bird. He was loyal to those he cared about and sweet most of the time...but not to those he didn't know.
Shadow narrowed his eyes at Tallow as if to say 'I wouldn't do that if I were you' and gripped onto Al's shoulder a little tighter, still not enough to hurt but enough to warn her 'Don't you dare let that filthy bird near me.'
