Jack Bond

Jack Bond
Jack is the head of MI78, the Wizarding Secret Service. He also is known to have either previously run or pretended to run a Pet Shop in Diagon Alley.

Pre-Hogwarts
Not much is known of his life before the story takes place, he probably went to Hogwarts (and was probably there the same time as Margret Magpie) And was probably in Gryffindor. By a young age he rose to his high position in MI78 and refused to budge.

This single quote tells us surprising a lot about his personal life “YOU KNOW, 095, ORIGINALLY I WASN’T GOING TO PUT YOU ON THIS CASE, I HAVE GRANDCHILDREN OLDER THAN YOU!” This probably means he was or is married. It also implies he had at least one child who in turn had chidren. His age is mainly a guess.

Chapter 1- Riddle And Death
Sapphire McKinnon heads into “Jack Bonds Pet Shop” she remembers that she used to laugh at the name. Sapphire mentions how the owner is old. Jack’s first line is when he shouts if he can be of assistance, referring to Sapphire as a little boy.

After Sapphire shouts Jack seems to understand (though it is later revealed his deafness is a pretence). He brings out three types of Owls for Sapphire, a Barn Owl, a Snowy Owl And a Eagle Owl. Sapphire picks the Barn Owl and after a bit of advice she names it Knione.

Chapter 19- Riddle And Luck
Not mentioned by name but he is there. He is described by Cherry as “an quite old man who I recognised as owning a pet shop in Diagon Alley” He is accompanied by two beefy men in sunglasses (presumably other agent) and Ava Free. It should be noted that he is not present when Ava goes to confront his sister, while the other two men are.

Chapter 5- Riddle And Faith
Jack Bond, revelaed to be Ava’s boss, comes into her office and shouts at her to go to the briefing room and to not get mud on her desk. Ava mentions he doesn’t joke around, she also mentions how she would have told so many 007 jokes if he had a sense of humour as she follows him to the briefing room. When Ava is questioning why NIan is there, Jack pretends he can’t hear her and starts the slideshow. In the middle of the slideshow he starts to talk about

Trivia

 * Sapphire actually gives us the idea of Jack’s age. He is either one or two years older than the fictional character James Bond.
 * As well as mistakening Sapphires gender, he misgenders the ow, naming it a female name.
