Florean Fortescues Ice Cream ParlourNothing is better on a hot summer day than an ice cream. Why not come along and try one of the wizarding variety after a long day of shopping?
NOTE: Please use this thread or the Indoor Seating thread for general Florean Fortescue's roleplay. Ice cream orders will only be taken in the Ordering Station thread. The shopkeeper is roleplayed by The1HBIC and the assistant by iBeJenn. Please do not roleplay as shopkeeper or assistant; however, they would love to have you join them as a customer. Also, just a reminder; OOC comments are not allowed. If you need to tell the people you are RP'ing with anything, please do so via PM. Thanks
Thank you, Tailzinator.
Visiting Florean Fortescue's for a tasty treat? In the shop just to meet and greet with friends? Either way, you'll probably be looking for a place to sit down. If the weather's warm enough, or you're just looking for some fresh air, you'll love to sit at one of the many outdoor patio tables the parlor has to offer. Each table is rectangular in shape, with comfortable, wooden benches surrounding it on two sides. Depending on the time of year, you just might find a bouquet of fresh flowers sitting in the middle of the table you're seated at.
If the sun is too bright, you'll want to open the umbrella-style top mounted on your table. Otherwise, leave the umbrella closed and pushed down to enjoy the sunny day. At each table, you'll find a menu showcasing all the tasty flavors available at Florean Fortescue's. A napkin dispenser can also be found at every table, just in case you have to clean up any ice cream accidents that do tend to happen. The Formaggio's do hope you enjoy your visit to Florean Fortescue's!

Maine thanked God for Jackie. She was the best friend anyone could actually ask for. "I didn't, Jackie. I'm only 21!" Maine laughed. "I married him fresh out of Beauxbatons!"
"The hearing's next week, actually. During the weekend. I doubt you'll want to come, though. Err... I don't know if you'll actually want to leave England for a whole week just to... Yeah..." she murmured.
'Come on, I'm kinda free during the weekend. I'll come. Just tell me when and where.' Jackie said. What were friends for, then, if they didn't be with them during their bad times?
Jackie took a bit of her ice-cream. 'Ooh, spicy! But seriously yummy. Florean's have amazing flavours, don't they?' Jackie smiled. She wanted a change of topic anyway. Didn't want Maine to get too depressed.

Maine smiled at Jackie. "Thanks, Jackie. It's this Saturday, at about 2 in the afternoon. At the Ministčre de la Magie, Wizarding Paris."
"Mine's sour." she said, taking a spoonful of ice-cream. "Makes you want to jump around..."
THANKS JACKIE FOR THE CHANGE OF TOPIC! She shouted inwardly.

'Right. I'll be there.' Jackie smiled. Enough of THAT topic now.
'Sour. I prefer hopping about 'coz of pepper.' Jackie grinned. 'But then, to each her own.' She had another spoonful of her ice-cream.
'My dad's planning to remarry. He's being thinking about it for a while. He was waiting for my schooling to get over. Muggle family, obviously. He doesn't want more people knowing about magic. Not that he's ashamed of it. Just wants it to be secret. The expression on his face when he came to know Mom was a witch!' Jackie laughed out loud. She could still remember the stunned face of her dad who looked almost Petrified.

"Indeed." Maine smirked. "You don't like lemon?"
"That's nice... Muggles are so... Innocent!" Maine smiled. "They're really nice people."

'I like lemon, not the ice-cream though.' Jackie winked. 'Yeah, most of them. But some are downright cruel.' Jackie was reminded of the shocking news reports that dominated some Muggle newspapers a few days ago. 'But some Muggles are like, really sweet and, yea, innocent. They're just so completely unaware of our presense I sometimes feel a little guilty of fooling them. Y'know, making them believe there's no such thing as magic.' Jackie grinned. Muggles didn't know anything about magic, though they were subtly conscious of it.

Maine shoved Jackie. "Eww..."
"Only some. And their expressions whenever they see a slight of hand." Maine chuckled. "It's just like magic!"

Muggles were adorable!
Jackie laughed. 'I know right? You've got to be so careful around them. If you do a slight bit of magic they go all 'WOW!' and they have this devotee-like expression. Can't believe I was one of those eleven years ago, really!' Jackie was amazed at how much she'd changed the minute she heard her mom was a witch. Where she has reached. From a simple family to the Ministry!
'So, what else? How's.. Gabrielle, is it?' Was that or was that not her sister's name. She could never remember. 'I never can remember names, except of course, my fav ones.' Jackie swung her arms wide, accidently hitting her ice-cream cup which fell all over Maine.
Jackie gasped. 'Oh, I'm so sorry! Accident.' Jackie pulled out her wand and pointed at the spilt ice-cream and said 'Scourgio!' The ice-cream disappeared. 'Suppose I'll have to get some more ice-cream, yea?' Jackie bit her lip.

Maine smirked, then sniffed her top. BLECH!
"Tergeo." she muttered, wand pointed at her sleeve. All the remaining -err...- remains of the ice cream disappeared.
"You were?" Maine asked, surprised.
"Gabby's finishing Beayxbatons soon. This'd be her 7th year..." Maine smiled, remembering her own 7th year. The stress she'd put on all her teachers... Not studying... Stuff like that...

'Yea. Mom witch Dad Muggle. Dad wasn't aware of anything. And I guess Mom thought she'd have time to tell him about it. But.. she went just after I was born.' Jackie smiled, a touch of sadness marring the smile slightly.
'So it was kind of a major shock when my dad, my bro and I found it out when my bro turned 11.' Jackie still remembered it. She laughed. 'So, up until then, magic was like a really cool thing. Later, I realized that Muggle magic is just conning.' Jackie frowned. Well, whatever. As long as it was entertaining, it was fine.
'Hey, that's cool. She'll be out by next year, huh? How's her stress level?' Jackie grinned. She remembered last year, all the screaming and fussing and tension. Now that it was all over, she could laugh over her absurdity over it all.

"I'm so sorry, Jackie!" Maine said, empathatically. "My father passed when I was 9."
"Well, at least it's still cool!" she smiled. "Yup, next year. She seems to be okay... Okay meaning the normal screaming hyper Gabby that I know..."

Jackie smiled. 'That's all right. It's not like I knew her well or anything.' she said lightly. 'Oh, I'm sorry about that. I didn't know..' she trailed off.
Maine seemed like such a Muggle-lover! 'Yea, it is. Especially considering how they don't know real magic.'
Jackie laughed. 'The usual, yea? Oh well, wish her luck from my side. I don't know about your school. Is she coming here next year. I'd like to meet her.'
That's when Jackie realized something. She didn't get another ice-cream! 'Hey Maine, lemme go get another ice-cream okay? Be right back.' She hopped into the Parlour again
Mia looked around she wasn't that hungry for ice cream but she was tired and need a place to sit down. She decided to take a rest break and sat down at one of the tables. She took out her notebook and started writing. Mia loved to write it was her favorite thing to do, Maybe one day become an author she hopes. She doesn't have a lot of friends because she's always so busy, it's quite lonely when she is writing. Mia sighed, what to write about today?

Elizabeth strolled onto the outdoor seating aread of the ice cream parlor. She saw a lady sitting alone writing, she would talk to her but she didnt want to bother the lady. Elizabeth sat down at an empty table and got out her sketch book. She began sketching.

Mia looked up from her writing, still blank on what to write about. She glanced around and saw a girl who just sat down at a table near her. As friendly as Mia is, she decided to go over and say hello. She got up and walked up to the table where the girl sat. "Hello, Im Mia Rivers." She said with a smile, "May i sit here?" she asked politely.

Elizabeth looked up from her sketchbook. "Of course." She smiled. "I'm Elizabeth Da.." She paused mid sentence. "Davis soon to be McIntrye." She laughed and smiled. "It is a pleasure to meet you."

Elizabeth nodded. "Yeah i am." She smiled. She didn't know whether to be happy or not about getting married. "Pleasure to meet you, Miss. Rivers. How is your day?" She wasn't good at telling ages, so she steered clear away from job and school questions.

" Oh, are you excited about it?" Mia asked with wonder, shes never really known about how love works. Shes only had one love in her life but he moved away and left her behind. Shes only 20 years old. No need to rush things. " Its pretty swell trying to find a topic to write about today." She said with a sigh. Oh how she was running out of things to write about..

"I dont know yet.... I still have some doubts."SHe frowned but smiled again. "As it is to find something to sketch." She laughed. Elizabeth was tired of sketching animals and flowers. "I hope you find a perfect idea to write about."

" Doubts? There should never be doubts on true love," I told her nicely, it was true though." You like to sketch?," Mia asked her. " Thats so cool, i wish i could," She said with a smile," As do i as do i." She said with a nod.

"I agree, but we were married once before, and he lefted without a word before because of my mother." She frowned. "Si, very much but it is just a hobby." She laughed. "I bet you could sketch better than me." She smiled.

"what did your mother do if you dont mind me asking?" Mia asked her, she was very interested. Maybe this could be her topic of the day. To be or to not to be. She smiled at her thoughts. " Ah as in writing is a hobby for me well its kinda my job but writing like novels and stuff is a hobby. Im a journalist." She nodded, she loved her job she truly does. " Nah, I cant sketch for my life." She laughed.

Elizabeth laughed. "Who knows what she did then, but this month she threaten to kill our unborn child." She frown slightly but smiled again. "How interesting! A jornalist, must be fun." She smiled.
