[A day later--he's not going down to Will's room and back up unless he has to, and it's easier just to do it in the morning when he's heading out, anyway--the papyrus is returned with House's large, messy writing scratched on it. There's also a little drawing of an owl on a motor cycle. ]
Library says they're Strix (Boeus, Origins of Birds). Depending on the story, they're descended from a chick who pissed off Aphrodite and Artemis (Boeus) or they're descended from harpies (Ovid, Fasti). Known for screaming like banshees and sucking babies blood in the cradle.
[ When the paper is returned, there is no message on it. Will had gotten House's message and hiked himself down to the library to do some reading, but didn't feel a need to write about it.
House was a smart man, he'd figure out.
Especially since the owl was now sporting a pair of reading glasses and had a book set out across the handlebars in front of him. ]
