Yay for Potter Puppet Pals references!
 
It was the fifth day since Shawn had sent off the love howler, and his unparalleled interest in the morning mail arrival was starting to grate on Gus' nerves. “The poor owl has to get all the way to California and back,” the salesman told his friend as the latter stared impatiently at the windows of the Great Hall. “It probably hasn't had enough time to even deliver the letter yet.”
 
Shawn pouted and swallowed his mouthful of toast. “But they're magic, Gus. The owls are magical.”
 
Gus opened his mouth to respond, but was interrupted by the arrival of a flock of owls. One swooped over the psychic and dropped a letter into a nearby jar of marmalade. Shawn let out a loud whoop of joy and retrieved the envelope, tearing it open in the process. Gus leaned over toward his best friend to read the response.
 
Dear Shawn,
 
No.
 
Love,
 
Juliet
 
Shawn let out a cry of dismay. Gus shrugged and buttered his muffin.
