Hey kiddo! It's Father Maxwell, sorry I ain't been around to help you with all this craziness-- just wanted to check how you're holding up. You uh, manage to magic yourself a boat or some wings and get out of that flood?
Oh, hi, I was wondering where you...well, never mind. We're fine, Hedwig nested in the attic and I kept the worst of the water out until the flooding went down.
[Yes Duo they'd just stayed where they were during two days of torrential flooding, that's what you do right]
Turns out you can Impervius an entire house if you run. Could've used my broom though. You all right?
Ahh, haha, I do a lot of charity work in the other cities, so I'm not home super often, you know? [And intel, can't forget the intel.] Anyway, that's good to hear- you have spells for that kind of thing, huh? That's handy!
[NO but look, what's past is past, if the kid is alive and well that's what matters!!] Any need for me to come back there and help out? Any damage to patch up?
--Ahhh, I'm fine! Just helping some of the crises happening in the other cities. People are pretty panicked. [Priests are generally assumed to do counseling for this sort of thing, right? Well, he was doing a bit of that....... Inbetween making homemade explosives and shooting the crap out of murder robots. Close enough.]
Oh, fine, that's fine, you don't need to, er, explain or anything. I'm fine.
[He's used to being on his own anyway, but it's also become a part of his nature to worry when he hasn't seen someone in a while. Even though Father Maxwell can't be getting up to anything dangerous, right?]
The house is all right. Stayed dry, mostly. Probably they need you more, the people in the other cities, if they're still panicked and things.
Yeah, well-- you should have someone looking after ya, even if you don't wanna feel under the thumb, you know? Well, tell me to step off if you ever feel smothered. I'm here if you do need something, though.
[He'd always had to be self sufficient growing up, but that didn't mean he should've had to, and neither should any other kid.]
How is the damage down there otherwise? Are people alright? I saw a lot of swept away houses on the reports... A shame. When things clear up there, maybe you could help out with a fix-it spell or two, eh?
Good! Good. And, uh...the house might be broken, but it's okay. I'll make sure it gets fixed. Say, you wouldn't happen to know anyone with super strength or powers that might help with repairing things, would you?
[Harry stands up from where he'd been perched on a bench, idly carving his name into the peeling-painted wood, and Jonathan will hear him calling for Hedwig in the background.]
Of course I know, I've got magic, I can repair things. Some things, anyway. Hedwig, come on.

[Weird that he'd asked about Harry and his owl.]
Why? What's wrong?

[He never did get the chance to find out what magic could do, exactly.]
That's useful, because an angry rock monster threw a boulder into our house.

Right. Yeah, I mean, obviously, an angry rock monster threw a boulder into our house.
