Oh Draco, you didn't...

 Woman denied emotional support peacock on United flight

I am pretty sure this was Draco trying to take his Auror Peacock on a Muggle aeroplane.  There's not really any other explanation. I don't know why he was trying to do this, but I'd imagine it was a top secret mission, and that someone will write or draw a full explanation for us at some point :D

Of course if you want to brush up on the backstory, you'll need to reread dustmouth's exceptional Auror Peacock Extraordinaire. <3

omgggg how had I missed that amazing dustmouth art?? ::flail:: Thank you so much for linking that, it made my evening :D

Also that whole article is a treasure. Emotional support peacock, I can hardly stand it. The pictures of it perched on the luggage cart!! Also I read the whole thing and you neglected to mention this little gem... "Further, as of March, Delta will not allow exotic emotional support animals including ferrets, insects, spiders, goats or animals with tusks or hooves to fly." Like the first three, okay, I can see someone trying to get their spider or ferret on a plane. But GOATS. That they've specifically banned emotional support goats. Has someone tried this too, just showed up at the airport with their goat in tow and wanted to take it on a plane? Why else would they be so specific about?? I am crying I'm laughing so hard, imagining a goat strapped into an airplane seat.

I didn't know about Auror Peacock but now I do and my life is better :)

I'm so glad you enjoyed the peacock art extravaganza! I have a vested interest in that one as it was me who came up with the stupid fucking brilliant prompt.

I think I blanked the bit about the goat. However I have just the fic for that as well! Icmezzo's delightful Love Lies Bleating! http://archiveofourown.org/works/970816
Let's face it, it was almost certainly Draco trying to take Guillaume on a plane that prompted the rule change.

Oh, everyone's life is better because of Auror Peacock, I agree!

I wonder how much trouble Draco got in for trying to take it on a plane? Can you imagine Harry's face, and Draco standing there all haughty refusing to listen to the flight attendants?

HOW ON EARTH COULD I HAVE FORGOTTEN ABOUT GUILLAUME!?!!?!?! :D :D :D :D :D

Mr Birds sent me the link to the peacock news item today. I told him I'd seen it already, and send him a link back to dustmouth's comic, and got the MOST confused message back I have ever seen. :D I thought it was best to leave Guillaume out of it for now.
