Take what now to work? Don't you have a wall full of far more interesting things to poke hostile things with?

But I will ask this. If you have a flying broomstick, why in the Heavens would you ever step in the elevator again?

[feathered_earth]

When it's raining, too cold, or I'm shopping for something, the elevator is more convenient. But I stick mostly with the broom these days.

Where in the world did you find such a device?

[feathered_earth]

Oh, when the Wilderness became this enormous castle called Hogwarts. There were all sorts of magic things, including the broomsticks!

Walking to work takes more time, but you stand less of a chance of being whisked off to parts unknown. Fair trade, I think.

I remember that place. Maybe I ought to have brought one of the thestrals with me.
