Default Tomes and Scrolls Specialist Bookshop

Established in 1768, T&S is the best place in Europe to find rare texts and old books. The proprietor may be willing to buy back old books if they're rare enough, and she's always ready to chat about books with a curious customer.

It was an especially lovely day, Amarantha decided, although she could only see a small crack of sky between the dusty curtains closed across her front windows. Sunlight was bad for old books, just as it was bad for young skin. Sunlight, in general opinion, seemed to be bad.

But it felt so very nice after a long day in the bookshop.

How fortunate that good weather would draw out the students and bring them into the various shops in Hogsmeade. She didn't often get visitors interested in rare books, but she had some first edition Toadstool Tales hidden away if someone was nice enough to ask.

Nate was walking along the streets of hogsmeade when he saw a very interesting looking shop. So of course he entered the shop. Once he got in he closed the door behind him very gently. "Hello? Is anybody here?" He asked. (He didn't see the shopkeeper yet.)

Customers! Amarantha was delighted!

"Somebody is here. Yes." She moved aside a stack of books on the counter and quirked a tiny smile at the boy. Young, wasn't he? Students were always so small, and got smaller all the time, it seemed.

"Appreciate books, do you?"

Nate jumped a bit when he heard someone say that. Then he saw the shopkeeper. "Yes I love books. So when I saw the shop name I decided I might take a look to see what's inside." Nate replied to the shopkeeper.

"Books. That is exactly what we have inside," Amarantha leaned across the counter and offered a cool, slim hand to the boy to shake. "Amarantha de Talone. I bet I can guess what sort of books you like. It happens to be one of my very favorite games."

She paused. "Did you get one of those coupons?"

Nate listened to the shopkeeper as she offered a hand to him. He then shook her hand. "Nate Jones. Pleasure to meet you. Oh really now? Then why don't you take a guess or two?" He said. "Oh and no I didn't get one of those coupons."

And another customer? What a very busy day she was having. How delightful.

"Ma'am? I couldn't be much older than you, I'm sure. Not ma'am, please. Just... Amarantha. Amy, if you'd prefer. You love books. I can tell."

Oh, good. The boy was going to let her play the game. Amarantha gave him a very serious look, bringing her hand to her chin and rubbing it as if she had a long beard.

"I know just the one." She knew where every single one of her books was located, and it only took about a second to pull a thin leather-bound book from the middle of a stack. "The Noble Sport of Warlocks. Umfraville. It's a Quidditch classic."

Nerida giggled and said Sorry Amy. Its nice to meet you, Im Nerida. Yes I love books all sorts of books! If there was a book that Nerida was intrested in then you could be sure that Nerida had read it! She was even part of the Book Club at Hogwarts.

"Nerida is a very unusual name, is it not?" Amarantha tilted her head back and forth as she gazed at the girl, trying to decide which book she'd pick for her. HMM.

"Shall I pick a book for you? See if it's just what you want?"

Nerida smiled a big grin and said Yes it is, my parents love unusual names! Looking at all the books she said Okay, if your reading for the challange! She laughed a bit and waited patiently to see if it truly would be the book that she wanted.

"Lovely." Amarantha gave a sunny smile before turning her attention to the stacks. None on the counter appealed to her, although those were some of her treasures, and so she moved on to the shelves around the front window.

Tricky. Very tricky.

"Oh, what fun!" She tugged a book free from the stack, revealing a garishly colored dust jacket showing a cow holding a wand. "Charm Your Own Cheese. There are some updated editions from the mid-1980's. Inferior, I think, because they took out the dragon milk cheeses once they were deemed too pricey. This is the original edition by Catchlove, published nearly 150 years ago. Delightful book."

Mika made her way into the old book store and just felt her nose begin to tingle as she sniffed the air. It smelled like the library and she liked the way the library smelled with its old books and scrolls. She just smiled and realized that she was a good Ravenclaw - a good nerd?

Yeah, no. She was a bad Ravenclaw she liked making dangerous decisions and sometimes not going to classes. But she was going to help her house get to the end of the school year with passing and ultra-awesome grades. AND maybe even investigate an awesome dragon baby somedays?

She didn't know what she would do but today she was going to look around at these ancient books. Walking around the room she slowly came to a stop in front of a large leather bound book - the binding seemed to be falling slightly to the side but she didn't mind. She thought it was beautiful.

Nate examined the book she picked out. "Hmm. This seems quite interesting. This does seem pretty good." Nate said as he looked at the books cover page.

Merlin! This was about the very best day since... SINCE EVER. Amarantha gave the girl a little finger wave. Welcome to the book wonderland, girl person!

"Do you have something you're looking for, or are you just looking?"

"It's a gift," Amarantha shrugged with a very pleased smile. "You're welcome to peruse it, but be very careful."

Stepping into the shop, Isaac was always looking for new and interesting books he'd never seen before. When he'd spotted the shop, he just had to pop in and check it out. He was hoping that they might carry a book or two that he'd not seen even, 'cause he really wanted something just out of the ordinary!

And yet another customer?? Amarantha gave the young man a pleased little smirk and indicated he could approach the counter.

"Are you shopping for anything in particular today?"

Shaking his head he smiled as he approached the counter. "No, nothing particular. I've jus' found I've read through all me books already." Yeah, no kidding, this term instead of studying for his OWL's he had more time and read them in 2 months!

"I jus' want something different te read. Something te catch me attention." he added leaning his elbows on the counter "Got anything like thet?"

It was the weekend and students were permitted entrance to the Hogsmeade village and Elijah decided he would take advantage of this fact. During the last divination class there had been some ruckus about a locket which he had found which was then taken from him (rather rudely, might he add) by that crazy Elwood.

Well, the Professors and some of the students said the girl in the locket looked much like the woman who ran some bookshop in Hogsmeade and Elijah was going to investigate. Maybe the locket had already been given to her and the apparent 'curse' on it was no more than simple paranoia from his peers, but he was going to investigate anyway and see if there was some way he could claim back his RIGHTful prize.

Walking down the street, he peered in each shop window looking for one that seemed like it specialised in books. It was the sixth window that he had come to, after resisting going into Honeydukes and the Three Broomsticks, that proved to to fit his criteria.

Entering the shop, he took a quick look around. It certainly wasn't the most vibrant looking of places. Not when one were to compare it to the cascade of colours Honeydukes offered. "Ummmm.... heeeellllloooo?" he said into the silence of the shop. He wasn't exactly sure how he was going to approach the subject of the locket, but he was sure he'd think up something. He always did.

Nate walked into the familiar shop. He saw a fellow Badger in there. So Nate said "Hi. And What's all this nonsense I hear about a locket?" He said to the fellow Badger.

Elijah heard the door behind him open and he turned around to see a younger 'Puff enter. Great, it seemed as if he wouldn't be getting those quiet negotiations he had perhaps hoped for. No matter. But then the boy began talking about the locket... how did he know?

"Locket? Who told you about the locket?" Elijah asked, suspicious of the boy. "Either way, it is nothing that concerns you. The locket is MINE and mine alone."

"I heard some people talking about it. And there was a name in there. Something like Amarantha or something like that." Then he heard him give some atitude. Well......looks like they won't be friends. That was one of Nate's pet peeves atitude.

"Hm. Is that so?" Elijah responded, unconvinced and still extremely wary of the boy and his knowledge regarding HIS piece of jewelry. "You would be right about the Amarantha part. It was my Grandmother's name since it was her locket and then was passed down to me. So, there is no need for you to come around... snooping." Elijah thought getting his locket back would be difficult, now he had to deal with competition? Well, at least this ickle 'Puff didn't look like much. He could take him down if it came to it. Yeaaaah.

"Oh. Ok. Anyways I'm not after the locket. I was just wondering what the locket thingy was about. Now if you excuse me I have some books to look at." He sad while walking away.
