A flurry of owls

[chaotic-miles.livejournal.com]

Freshly sorted, Miles made his way to the owlery.


Susan,

I got sorted into Slytherin. I've also attempted a bit of recruiting here and there, although I haven't been successful at finding people who have enthusiasm for evil clown hunting. When can we meet next to share drinks and strategize?

P.S. I really don't know how well I'm going to like communicating via owl. It seems a slow, cumbersome way to communicate, as well as being fairly non-secure.




Hello,

Are you still up for a drink and a chance to talk shop? I was sorted into Slytherin, so we could just meet in the common room. Also, I don't believe I actually caught your name during my sorting, but one of the house elves eventually supplied it. Hopefully, it didn't name the wrong person, or I'm really going to be embarrassed.

Yours,
Miles Vorkosigan






Dr. Cox,

My name is Miles Vorkosigan, and I was recently sorted into Slytherin. During my sorting, it was suggested that I contact you as you are apparently an actual medic here, and not just a fan of daytime soap operas. I have a medical condition that renders my bones brittle, and was told there might be something the medics here could do to stabilize them. I was also told to ask for you specifically, and I hope at some point you can work in a bit of time to meet with me.

Thanks in advance.

Miles Vorkosigan
Slytherin

Miles-

I'm free tomorrow, if you want to meet at the Ravenclaw bar--I can come meet you and walk you there, since the castle is far too easy to get lost in when you're new to it. I know of at least one other person who's interested in the idea, but you're right; it's hard to find enough people who want in on the whole thing, unless they are already.

Also, there are ways you can ward owls, so nobody can read your messages save the person it's intended for. I can teach you a few of the basic ones to start with; they can get pretty creative (and destructive).

Susan,

Sounds like a plan. I look forward to seeing you tomorrow. And thanks for the offer to teach me how to ward these things.

Miles-

Should I meet you in the entrance hall? It's the easiest place to find in here, really.

((Either way works for me--probably best to start a new thread, I think, just so this one doesn't get ginormously long))
