Dedalus had been staring at the board for at least 20 minutes. Just…standing in the middle of the hallway, not even changed into his scrubs with his bag on his shoulder, jacket still on. Those chestnut hues scanned over the names of who was supposed to be working that day, only to see that the shift he was supposed to have was now replaced with someone else’s name. He knew he hadn’t gotten it wrong, because he always knew when he was supposed to be at Mungo’s; he wouldn’t have shown up at all if he wasn’t 100% positive. But, there was definitely someone else’s name where his was supposed to be.

A hand raised to scratch at the side of his head, brows furrowing together before he turned around, trying to figure things out. Was he kicked out of the program? Had he done something wrong? Did…

Did they know that he was partially responsible for the the fiasco with Dorcas and Caradoc? Dorcas was an auror, afterall... Maybe they were upset with him for being a part of all that.


The thought made him swallow roughly, his stomach churning uncomfortably. They didn’t just take people’s names down for no reason at all. There had to be some sort of explanation for all of this. He knew in the back of his head, that he should go to Healer Wood, to ask about the schedule change…but what if he was wrong? Why would he want to waste the Chief’s time asking pointless questions? Letting out a sigh, he turned around, and headed back towards the entrance of Mungo’s, pushing open the door to step outside. He walked around for another couple of minutes, before heading home. What was he supposed to tell Eliza? What if he had been kicked out? How was he going to explain that to her? The thoughts were making his head hurt, so once he found a good location, he apparated back to their apartment building, making his way over to their door. He hesitated before unlocking the door with the key he pulled out of his pocket, pushing it open so he could step inside. Removing the metal object, he closed the door, only to hear Spunky charge towards him a moment later. The sight of the small dog made him smirk a bit, lowering himself down so that he could pet him, looking up and away from him when he saw his owner standing just a few feet away.



“Uh-…hey.”
