Adriana Dane was never desperate, or at least she’d never admit it. She never admitted to having any weaknesses at all.

Either way, dressed impeccably in an outfit of her own design, she wove her way through the crowds of people gathered around the food stands, not too concerned about if she was being polite or not, to investigate what else was being offered.

Of course, she hadn’t expected much, but upon raising up a garishly colored beanie in the colors of one country’s team or another in two fingers to eye level, she was underwhelmed.

Someone pushed past Jack who was busy looking around one of the stands. He had been waiting for the shopkeeper to become preoccupied so he could palm that solid gold snitch that was sitting a hand span away. ”You don’t look very impressed,” he stated in American accent. He picked up a hat covered in rhinestones. ”Not your style?” he asked offering it to her.

He then picked up another one, this time with a flashing charm made a face and tossed it over that Golden Snitch. Rummaging through a few more things, he went back and picked up that flashy hat (and snitch). He tossed a few coins to the merchant and wandered off. Nobody would notice the missing snitch in all hustle and bustle.

"E-erm." Maxie began, shuffling his feet. Social Anxiety, it seemed, was much stronger than any love or excitement he'd been feeling. Red faced, Maxie tried to work up the courage to say something to the girl- just a quickexcuse me! so he could grab the little bat-pen and get out of here....

He slipped that solid gold snitch into a hidden inner pocket, then put that garish beanie on his head and continued to walk around a little.

A while later, he passed a guy who was overloaded with goodies. A hand reached out as the mark chatted with a young lady and snatched his Lominoculars as he walked past. He could get a few coins for these. Clearly the boy was too busy trying not to drop things and dealing with the crowd to miss them.

He grinned. "Now we find food." he said starting to walk, letting his nose be his guide.

Jack tucked the Lominoculars into his belt whistling as he walked on down the stalls. He smiled to himself. Was there another stall he could find a goodie at? The golden snitch had been a great find. And then he passed by two youngins' wearing matching hats. Oh no….poor dude!! No! No no...That’s how girls get you. First it's matching hats, then it's his and her jewelry, followed by his and her brooms and finally his and her sinks.

Lightening quick - he pulled the flashing beanie off his head and exchanged it with the guy’s. He kept walking as if nothing happened. The guy would later thank him (well, at least in his head). Because there was no way he was going to find him again.

Matching hats were ridiculous; no matter how much you were in love.
