Well, that's nice. Most people who know anything about Harry's impact on technology are, at best, wary when it comes to letting him near technology, and they tend to blame him when things go wrong. Murphy still glares at him if he gets too near a computer, and he fried that hard drive years ago.

Harry crouches down beside Mouse, the better to talk to the kid. He towers over most people he meets, let alone kids. That's the trouble with being all tall and lanky like he is. The bottom of his duster fans out on the floor behind him, and he unclips Mouse's lead and shoves it into his pocket. It's not like the dog actually needs it, mostly.

Mouse is enthusiastically licking the kid, his tail wagging madly.

"I'm a wizard. Goes with the territory. Magic and technology don't mix."
