un: man's greatest treasure (video)

[reparo]

[-- a scramble of images: sky, trees, rooftops. And noise: flapping of wings, birds cawing, and in the distance, for those who recognise her voice, Hermione Granger yelling-]

Give that back! I don't want to hurt y - ow, you little - Accio communicator.

[Whatever projects image with the communication talismans/crystals/what-have-you goes decidedly zoooom as it gets yanked, bird holding it in its beak and all, back into Hermione's outstretched hand. She wrestles it out of the beak, and sends the mad bird flying with a shielding spell, on camera.

Then finally, harried and disheveled, her face appears in the video in full glory: the scratches at the edge of her face, and neck, and the mad look. It melts into concern, when she notices the device is transmitting.]

Oh - balls. [A sigh.] There's something wrong with the birds. They've been attacking all morning - and no, these aren't mine. I've seen farmers try to chase them from the crops, so everyone please be aware.

[ooc; LET'S GO PLOT, LET'S GO.]

That sounds like a reason for me to no longer be on the streets.

[ Probably, yeah. Five doesn't remember the Beastmaster sending flocks of vicious birds before his arrival, but it's impossible not to make a connection. They're really going to see this place destroyed in record time. ]

You really wonder why anyone decided to live here.

[reparo]

What, you don't like the weather? [Such sarcasm, while she makes her way quickly back to the teahouse?]

Ah bollocks, I just saw one break through the window of a house - board our windows. I'll be back.

[She's going to go and help the poor inhabitants of that house.]

[ ...Well, he knew this was coming. Someone will be thanking him later that he's been stockpiling enough survival items to get through this. Like hell he's going to let a bunch of birds ransack his shelter. Which — he can already hear them hitting the roof.

He really needs to get his siblings in one place where he can keep an eye on them. Diego is probably running around doing exactly what she is. ]

Try not to let them follow you this time.

[reparo]

[She would like to make it known that that level of care earns Five a stuck-out tongue, in spite, before the connection is interrupted.

She has some birds to fend off.]

[ He still fully expects her to bring them back with her. Hopefully she'll have enough sense to teleport in to throw them off. — Then again, the window boarding was actually a good idea, so maybe she does.

He almost asks if she'll keep a look out for his siblings but... no it's fine, he'll find them once he secures the place. ]
