Zerrubabel sat on the stone steps outside the owlery. After his interesting encounter with Professor L'Keitha, his week had been rather dull. After classes, he had made his way up to the owlery to send a letter. His parents had bought him a parrot while on vacation, and it had proven very effective, much to his amusement. It did have some trouble in the cold last year, so he had been working on an atmospheric charm to place around the bird, sort of like a warmth bubble. It had not worked perfectly, but it kept the bird warm enough for flight, even on the coldest nights of the year.
He found the parrot, who had been surrounded by a few smaller owls that had tried to fit into it's 'warmth bubble'. Zerrubabel decided he would work on the charm and perfect it later. For now, he called the bird over. He was planning on sending a letter, but he had not decided who to send it to yet. He had parchment and a quill with him, and he tried to write. He didn't feel like writing his parents or his friends, and he had no siblings. He crumpled the paper and tossed it on the ground. Pulling out his wand, he muttered "reducto", and the paper disappeared in small flames. "Another letter to no one" he muttered as he returned his bird, Sir Henry Morgan, to its perch.
Zerrubabel picked up his things and headed back towards the common room, determined to enjoy his time at Hogwarts.
