Billy was glad when the siren finally shook his hand. Billy gave it a good grip and shake the way his dad had taught him. It was weird that was something that stuck with him still even with everything he had learned about his father. Well... it was one of the better memories and he didn't feel like over analyzing his habits just now. Instead he let the kid's hand go after the shake so it didn't go on too long and instead focused on the question asked. Was he out here looking to die? Jeez, this kid was pretty morbid... then again with Billy's track record on this beach it was hard to just say no. Seemed like he was tempting fate every time he came to the shoreline.
“Um, not so much no.” Billy said tilting his head to the side slightly.
We came to perform a ritual. The owl said. Or rather very much didn't say. Instead it just looked intently at Hunter and the words formed from within the mind. It was the message cantrip that the familiar's wizard had made. A useful tool that allowed Rowling to finally communicate with others. The words that were sent came in a crisp british tone as if spoken by Alan Rickman in his role of Snape. For all Billy knew about magic, he still couldn't figure out why his Familiar sounded like that to him. He liked the movies sure but of all the characters?
Rowling was kind enough to tell the wizard what he said to their new siren friend and Billy nodded to agree. “What Rowl said, came out to do a bit of magic. I'm running low on Ward stones and wanted to make a few.” He looked at Hunter again, seeing he was finally warming up with those gloves Mac had made. “What about you? Is that what you were doing out there? Because if so I know a few numbers you could call first. Might help out.” he said. Hotline numbers like that were easy to find but it was amazing how much it could help someone to just talk to a stranger about problems. Billy had learned that recently too.
