Walking into the shop with her aunt, Liz walks over to the counter right away. Turning to ask her aunt something, she realizes she had gone over to the art section of the store. Smiling Liz turns back to the counter again.

Watching Amelia put the finishing touches on the place, Lola beamed and walked around the side of the counter, taking her usual position. Much better indeed. She nodded, perfectly capable of taking care of everything up front while Mia checked things in the back; "Of course! How are your boys, by the way? And Melania, how is she doing with Beauxbatons?" Lo asked, scanning over something on the clipboard to refresh her memory.
Brown orbs moved from the papers, looking up as she heard a customer or two enter. She smiled, warmly. "Hello there! Anything I can help you with?" The young woman asked, placing the clipboard down, out of the way entirely.

"Hello!"

"I'm a second year. I need to get the whole set of school books please. I will also need, umm hold on", Liz says taking out a piece of parchment with her list on it.

"I will need 2 black ink pots and 1 colored ink pot. 4 common quills and 1 fancy quill. 2 packs of common parchment and 1 pack of colored parchment."

"Do you also by chance have the series A witch without a name? It looked fascinating!"

Sho finished his ice cream cone before walking into the bookshop. He held the door open for his friends after wiping his hands on a napkin. They didn't have much ice cream on them, but it was still enough to be annoying.

"Better finish those cones out here," he told them, wagging his finger around at their cones.

He loved the smell of bacon parchment in the morning.

Or late afternoon, or evening, or Linner, which is that time right around when you might be hungry but its too late for lunch and too early for dinner.

In any case, David Kapoor was happy to be in a bookstore again. As he entered the shop, he gravitated towards the metaphysical section, and pulled out a biography; The Life & Times of Tim, The All-Knowing. That ought to make for an interesting read. Kapoor adjusted his spectacles and looked down at the front cover. Herbert had seen better days.
He then thumbed through a book about Lillith and it's effects on houses. Perfect. His daughter, Eliza would enjoy reading that. Taking the two books he headed towards the point of sales terminal.

"Good afternoon." He said, jovially greeting the store-keeps and placing both books on the counter. He eyed a spell-checking quill nearby. "I'd like to purchase these two books, please. A biography and an astrology book." Deciding to take one of the spell-checking quills, he placed one on top of the books. "One of these little instruments as well."

Lola giggled, amused to hear about Mat. He was probably the one out of the three that could even begin to keep her dear old friend on her toes, yet nothing was quite capable of actually doing that. It was no wonder Mia had been her role-model, growing up. "Aw poor little Dom," Lo faintly frowned, a smile tugging at her lips again in just moments of thinking on the brighter side. "It's best those sort of things are figured out now, rather than later. By the time he's ready to head off to school, it would feel normal having all the allergies since they've been there the whole time, right?" She suggested, putting a positive look on it. She absolutely adored Amelia's children, each were a whole worlds different from the other and precious in there own way.

"Oh yes! Beauxbatons was the perfect choice for her, I agree." Lola nodded, wholeheartedly agreeing. She would never forget her years attending that academy, not only had it taught her almost everything she knew to this day, but it has the reason she was here today, co-owning this lovely bookshop with her friend and business partner. Well, that and an old favorite teacher that had introduced the two. "Micaiah and Chandra good. Probably giving their babysitter a hard time; Both are just getting over the sniffles so they are not to go outside for one more day." In child speak, one more day was forever, apparently.

Needless to say, her young girls were not pleased about that. Opening her mouth to add that, the words switched abruptly to greet the man whom approached the counter, smiling in return to his own greeting "Good afternoon, sir." Grabbing the quill before the books she glanced over the titles, as usual and packaged the items up. "8 Galleons and 4 Sickles; Anything else for you today?" Lola asked, setting his purchases down.

Jess wanted to buy her books early, when the shop wasn't that crowded. She walked to the counter and waited for her turn, trying to remember everything she had to buy, besides the usual schoolbooks.

"Yes." He said with the utmost certainty and calmness. "No, wait, no." He said, his eye catching sight of the bookmarks. Adding the last minute item of a indigo and blue bookmark, he smiled at the shopkeep. "Alright. Now I'm done." And, he was positive this time. Absolutely certain. No turning back now. 100% pure commitment.

The nearby second shopkeep was speaking about chakras and energies and it intrigued the Professor such that he could not stop his ear from eavesdropping and picking up what his old ears could hear. It seemed that this woman was interested in alternative methods of healing. Then she asked him a question. "Why, thank you. Thank you. It is for my daughter, Eliza. She'd taken a strong interest in astrology and planetary energies quite early and I think she might enjoy this book." He answered happily. As the first shopkeep calculated his new total, he took a moment to make conversation. "Have you read it?" He asked, wondering out loud.

Looking at the color of the bookmarks the man just took, she couldn't help to analyzed his choice. "I know it might sound strange but indigo have a negative effect when you used it during a depressive mood. So if you feel down keep that color away from you as much as possible." Her comments were base on nothing she was able to see but she thought it could be helpful. "As for the blue I have to admit that it's the most suiting color. It's like a bit of peace in color."

Mentally applauding the taste of that man's daughter she could remember the first time she had took interest in those subject. She was seven years old and had that time the other kids were already looking at her in a strange way for her topic of discussion. "Well I couldn't be more happy about her interest. I'm personally all about cosmic energy which his a subject dear to my heart." Litely giggling as he asked her if she had read the book. It was certain that she had done it. "Of course, this book will talk about the fact that in astrology we also refered Lillith as the dark moon, if she doesn't already know this. The book will teach her many great things."

Smiling at the young girl who had just arrived near the counter she was trying hard to not cuddle her with attention. "Hello there sweetie pie. How can I help you?"

"Hello! I need to buy the schoolbooks for the fifth year, some parchment and black ink." the girl said politely to the shopkeeper, returning the smile.

"Oh, and a spell-checking quill as well!" she suddenly remembered. "That would be all." Jessica said and waited, searching for some money in her bag.
