| | Flourish and Blotts The best and oldest bookshop in Diagon Alley! | |

04-09-2010, 02:07 AM
| | | F&Bs Counter In the center of the shop is the counter, where the shopkeeper Brett, can usually be found sitting. Highly polished, this wooden desk is very cluttered, but there is some sort of method to this seeming madness. Drawers run along each side of the desk, each containing specific items such as quills, parchment, delivery forms, and customization forms. A huge book sits along the left side of the desk, containing the inventory of the store and where each item can be found. If you are having difficulty in finding a book, please let the shopkeeper know and he will be glad to assist you.
Small racks on the side of the desk contain a display of newspapers, both Muggle and Wizard ones; including the Daily Prophet and the London Times. Magazines, such as Teen Witch Weekly, the Quibbler, and Quidditch, Quidditch, and More Quidditch!, can also be found here. OOC: This is the place where your character can purchase their books; please do not chat in here. |

Selina shyly made her way up to the counter. A very unorganized man was assisting a tall brunette with her purchases. As Selina waited online she began to panic, she had never paid for anything without her parents help.
As the brunette left Selina heaved her load of books up on the counter for the man to ring up. Among the pill of books sat a copy of Hogwarts: A History by Chroniculus Punnet, A History of Magic by Bathilda Bagshot, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them by Newt Scamander, The Dark Forces: A Guide to Self-Protection by Quentin Tremble, How Not To Blow Off Your Fingers On The First Day by Julius Gummidge, A Beginner's Guide to Transfiguration by Emeric Switch,Quidditch Through the Ages by Kennilworthy Whisp, Goshawk's Guide to Herbology by Miranda Goshawk, The Standard Book of Spells Grade 1 by Miranda Goshawk, Hilary Stargazer's Guide to the Galaxy by Hilary Stargazer.

Freya slowly made her way to Flourish and Blotts. She pushed the door opened. She saw a lot of students buzzing around the shop looking for their school books. She picked out her list from her pockets : Hogwarts: A History by Chroniculus Punnet, A History of Magic by Bathilda Bagshot, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them by Newt Scamander, The Dark Forces: A Guide to, Self-Protection by Quentin Tremble, The Art of Potion Making by S.

Lizzie approached the counter, weighed down by not only the Third-Year books she wanted to purchase, but also the bags containing everything else she'd bought that day. And boy, were they heavy. Plus, she had a diary balanced on top of that lot too.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Emily Smith Third Year Ministry RPG Name:
Rachel Smith Accidents & Catastrophes |
Emily walked into the shop and had to stop and stare. This was the biggest bookshop she had ever been in! Emily loved to read and decided at that moment this was her favourite shop.
She spent 10 minutes looking at all the types of wizarding books (and muggles ones too!) before she finally decided she better buy her books.
Her sister had given her some of her old ones but Emily still needed Hilary Stargazer's Guide to the Galaxy, A Beginner's Guide to Transfiguration, A History of Magic and How Not To Blow Off Your Fingers On The First Day.
Emily found these books and went over to the counter.
"These books please" she said dumping them on the counter then, spotting a quibbler, added it to the pile and said "Oh, and this please!"

He led her towards the front of the shop up to a table with a large sign floating above it that read School Books. "First year books are right here." He lifted a stack. "The years then go from left to right; so that your seventh year books are at the very end. Though you have a little while before you have to worry about that."
With that, he stepped back from the table and walked back to the counter. "Anything else?" Quote:

A glint caught his eye as he glanced down and he looked back up, gave Selina a wink and a wave goodbye. Two extra galleons was certainly something to smile about.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Pandora L. Spurlock First Year Ministry RPG Name:
Samuel Spurlock | Pandora trudged into Flourish and Blotts, letting out a long sigh. The smell of leather wafted through the shop, causing the first year to smile. She glances around the shop until her eyes landed upon the desk in the center with a "School Books Here", sign hanging above it. Pandora allowed her eyes to travel over the rest of the shop first, landing on the blank journals, another item she needed. The first year walked over and picked up a maroon colored blank journal, being she was in the house of Gryffindor. Afterwards, she made her way over to the far left side of the table that was situated in the center of the book shop, pulling out a piece of parchment that was her school supplies list. She made sure each book was there before she put her blank journal on top of the stack, picking it up. Pandora carried the books to the counter and sat them down on top, smiling at the shop keeper, nodding her head as a way of saying hello.

Zoe stepped up to the counter. She wasn't able to see over her large stack of first year books. As she struggled to place the stack on the counter, a few books slid off the top of the stack. Luckily her dad caught them for her, and took the stack out of her hands.
Zoe cleared her throat, a little embarrassed. "Excuse me" she said, "could I please buy all of these books and-". She grabbed a light green journal with silver swirls on it off a table nearby. "And also this journal? Thank you!"

Brett reached over the counter to steady the large amount of material in the girl’s arms so that it all wouldn’t topple over onto the floor. “Busy day you’ve had.” He commented casually as he picked up the books from the shop. “Would you like the diary customized or keep it plain? If you’d like it customized, it’ll take 3 days to customize and a day to deliver to you if you don’t want to pick it up.”
Lizzie smiled gratefully at the shopkeeper as he steadied her stuff, and nodded. 'Definitely... one more shop to go, and I'll have all my school stuff,' she said happily. 'Erm... I'll keep it plain, I think,' she said, glancing down. It was a pretty gold colour, and she liked ot just plain.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Emily Smith Third Year Ministry RPG Name:
Rachel Smith Accidents & Catastrophes | Quote:
Brett placed a copy of the Prophet on the counter as another customer approached. “Of course…” Stargazer..Transfiguration…History of Magic…He cracked a smile at the last book. “Let’s hope no one is blowing off anyone’s fingers though I’m sure the nurse could grow them back.” He remarked with a chuckle. “7 galleons and 14 sickles is your total.”
Emily laughed. "Knowing me, I probably would..." she said handing over her money.
"I really like this shop!" she added "I love to read, and this is the coolest bookshop I've ever been in!" She blushed as she said this.
Why was she so good at embarrassing herself?

A quiet girl stepped up to the counter next, setting her books down as she nodded a hello. "Hey there." Brett greeted as he slid from his perch on the stool, shaking out a bag as he did so. "That'll be 17 galleons if that's all you'll be needing." He stacked the books into the bag, using the journal to top it off. Quote:

"And also this journal? Thank you!" Brett hid a smile as a first year stepped up to the counter, nearly toppling the stack of books onto the floor. "Sure can. It'll be 17 galleons, unless you would like to customize your journal. You can put your name or anything else that will make it unique." Quote:

It was a pretty gold colour, and she liked ot just plain. Brett nodded, still eyeing the purchases. "Well, I suppose it's best to get everything out of the way in one trip. At least you won't be scrambling at the last minute." With the casual remark, he rang up the books and handed the bag to her. "17 galleons please." Quote:

Why was she so good at embarrassing herself? Brett grinned. "I'm sure you're not that bad; you'll probably surprise yourself with how easily you pick up on things."
As Emily went on to compliment the bookshop, his smile grew a bit more. "Glad that you like it. It's a busy place but never boring, that's for sure." He reached under the counter, reached over to the bag of books and dropped a bookmark inside with a conspiratorial wink. "A little something extra."

He would send off the order at lunchtime. Okidoke Sheridan nodded, counting out the galleons and sickles and placing them on the desk, she had so many Knuts, stupid coppers, she'd have to get rid of them somehow, she took her other bagged purchases, thank you she nodded again before walking away from the counter and letting the other customers pay

Osiris walked into the bookshop, even though they would most likely be heavy she would buy the books first, she had to. She waited behind a girl who was counting all her money on the desk, it shouldn't be long now, soon she would be able to start reading for her first year at Hogwarts! *grin*
