The rest of the room was simply decorated, a thick white rug covered the floor with a sitting area consisting of a long sofa and a chair near the windows that were draped with thick blue draperies that blocked the light.
"This is your room," Amelia repeated from the doorway. "You can do with it what you want, it's your zone nobody else's. If you don't like the paint we can change it,"

With a flutter of wings, the owl flew in before settling on her shoulder.
"I look different Hedwig, but you always seem to know that it's me," he mumbled earning a soft bark from the owl. "I'm sorry I was gone for so long but I'm really happy you weren't at Privet Drive when it all happened. Oh! Right, Hedwig, I'd like you to meet my - mother, Amelia Bones. I can explain everything to you later," Harry laughed and although Amelia thought her daughter was a bit - different for speaking to the owl as though it understood the moment she was present the owl turned its head to stare at her, its golden eyes blazing into her own.
For a moment the owl didn't look away until finally it seemed satisfied and it gave a soft bark of greeting to Amelia.
Strange, she thought as the owl turned back to her daughter, nibbling at her ear with an affection which only made her smile and laugh
