well‚ but hey‚ why not. Scene 1: Set late third-year‚ or perhaps fourth year. Medraut glowered at the small blackbird perched jauntily atop his laptop‚ beak opening and closing expectantly. “I fed you half an hour ago‚ you incessant glutton.” The bird cocked its head with a curiously musical little trill that would have been beautiful had it not ended in a slightly hoarse croak not too dissimilar to a raven’s caw‚ and jumped off Medraut’s laptop.
