Owls!

Dr. Hodgins Jack,

I can't apologize enough for the lateness of this owl. I'm afraid I have no excuse, save that Hogwarts appears to make one extremely scatterbrained and in the chaos of the last few weeks I seem to have let a few of my marbles slip.

At any rate, do you still have any interest in the experiment we discussed at your Sorting? The House Elves assure me that should we need a pig they can provide one or even several for our purposes.

Sincerely,
Constable Benton Fraser



Lily,

Your friend Dr. Cox asked me to look into a certain matter for him. Would you mind if I asked you a few questions? Nothing too dramatic, I promise.

Ben



Phil,

I hope I'm not intruding, but I couldn't help but notice that you appeared to be in somewhat of a state during Professor Evans' Defense Against the Dark Arts class the other day.

I realize that you and I are not particularly close, but I thought I would offer my services, in case you need... well, any help. I know this kind of thing can be difficult to get through alone. Believe me, you don't have to be. Very often, the first step to helping yourself is admitting that you need help.

Sincerely,
Constable Benton Fraser

Attached to the note are several helpful pamphlets.

Lily,

I'd certainly be happy to come and see you, but I don't think there's any need to if you're busy. It won't take long either way.

I'm in the Hospital Wing right now and it's a bit...er, messy. Trust me, you don't want to know. Or smell it. Dear Merlin.

What can I help you with?

Lily,

It's actually the Hospital Wing I'm concerned with, but I was down there this morning and I don't think there's any need for me to come by again.

Dr. Cox seems to think someone's been stealing medical supplies. Have you noticed anything missing? Or, for that matter, anything strange?

Oh, for fuck's sake. Tell that arrogant, permed-up, leather-faced twit that I did not take anything, nor did I lose my mind and misplace his precious supplies. And yes, as a matter of fact, I am quite sick of his bitching about it. Merlin's overgrown bollocks, that man whines more than a sprog getting their teeth pulled!

Bloody hell, maybe, just maybe, in his advanced years he's simply forgotten where he put them. Or perhaps they are jammed up his arse with that gigantic stick. Did he ever think about that?

Lily,

...So you didn't see anything, then?
