| | The Leaky Cauldron Looking for a drink or a place to stay the night? Visit this famous gateway between the non-wizarding world and Diagon Alley! |

| | | Main Floor Seating  Here at The Leaky Cauldron, things can get pretty busy, and, for Ryoma, this is exactly the case. For this purpose, a few changes have been made and now customers may come to the counter to place their orders, so as to keep the chaos down and keep things less hectic for the busy workers and their customers.
This is where one comes to order, place a reservation for a room, or to have a seat at the bar counter. Just come talk to Ryoma or Harley and they'll take your order and get your drinks to you. If it's food you desire, it may take a bit longer. Just have a seat in the dining area and Ryoma or Harley will get it right out to you - or Ryoma's cat will as the case may be. Just be sure not to step on the pathetic fluffy white creature as he makes his rounds with a tray charmed to his back.
The Main Floor Seating has been recently renovated by Ryoma. The new leaky Cauldron area is filled with booths on either side for people to take a seat at and eat. On the floor is a long bar in which two very approachable individuals are seated behind- Ryoma and Harley. They will be more than happy to fill any order.
In the center of the room sits the baby of the Leaky Cauldron- baby grand piano that is. It is not unusual to enter the Leaky Cauldron and see Ryoma playing away at the piano for all of his devoted on lookers, which excludes his assistant shopkeeper. However, this piano is widely special, even for the Wizarding World. Ryoma built it by hand and therefore as he plays each key the ivory gives off a little puff of colored smoke that rises up into the air and form shapes that begin to tell a story to the music. OOC: Please do NOT RP for Ryoma, Harley, or Marshmallow. Doing so will cause your post to be edited or deleted depending on the severity. The piano is free for all to use, not just Ryoma, so have fun with that and enjoy yourself. Also, please remember that Ryoma and Harley do NOT take orders at the tables. You must go the Main Bar and Ordering Station for that.
And a very IMPORTANT warning. Please please PLEASE make sure you have read all SS rules - especially those involving drinking. There will be a zero tolerance policy in regards to this rule.

Blaise Carlisle Ministry Security | The Disappearing Girl | | XANDERMAN 4lyfe! Quote:
Sylvia blushed a little at the heavy compliment. People did admire her all the time and she thought she would never get used to it. If they weren't admiring or complimenting her, they were screaming and yelling at how awful she was. She smiled, and replied with "I'm sure you could easily forget about me after what you've been through, but I definitely didn't forget about you." It may have seemed so, but she really didn't.
"It brought you closer, even if you didn't need it. But, I'm sure you did." She nodded, her smile fading once again. "It's difficult being the only woman of the house. It's still me, my father and Miles and two men to look after is enough. But, I guess it's me replaying Miles for looking after me when we were young." Sylvia looked at the floor and sighed. She understood how it was for Xander after a horrific event. "It seems you've been planning out the rest of your life, Xander. I don't think I've eve thought about the future."
Sylvia laughed. "I did. Silly of me really, I liked doing it because it was as soft as my hair. Everyone else's is horrible. Ours is the best."
Oooooh she was BLUSHING. Xander knew he was doing something right, to get that reaction out of her. He smiled slyly, watching her turn a light shade of pink. It was always refreshing to know that he could still do that to her. He reached for her other hand and held both of them tightly in his. "But that's the thing. I could never forget about you." Of course not. No one made him as crazy as she did at times. And he was glad that she didn't forget about him. He smiled genuinely at that.
He laughed slightly at her father and brother being a handful. He couldn't deny it - he knew that as a guy, they were a handful yet complained about women being an even bigger handful. Except of course, they always were the bigger handful. What with them being irrational and stuff. Pfft. Women.
She noted that he had been planning out his future. "I really didn't have a choice," he said, sighing slightly. He ran his thumbs over her hands gently, still holding them. "I think reality came up and punched me in the stomach. Saying I need to start thinking, to start planning. I can't be the same old Xanderman from Hogwarts forever. I mean, on my days off and after work of course I can, that's just a part of who I am."
Her comment made him smile. Of course his hair was the best. Instead of replying to it, he lifted her hands up and kissed each of them gently, and let go. He leaned back in his chair, and looked outside. He couldn't help but wonder how well this was going to go. Hopefully pretty well.

The woman walked down the wooden steps carefully in her heels and scanned the room for Aiden.
Her eyes landed on the brunette guy and she headed toward him. He sat in a booth, and appeared to be looking over a menu. "AIDEN!" she cried loudly, picking up her pace. Once she got closer to him the blonde pecked him on the cheek and took a seat across from him. Ooops.... hehe she had accidentally left a red lipstick mark on his cheek. "I've missed you." Hmmm. Hmm. Hm. Sometimes there were TOO many choices on menus, and then Aiden simply couldn't decide because the extensive selection made him so indecisive! But, fortunately, he was suddenly distracted from making a choice when he heard his name being called from across the seating area. He looked up with a grin just in time to be met with a peck on the cheek from Sadie.
" Sadie!" His smile lengthened. " Missed you, too - how've you been, huh? You're looking pretty." All decked out and all. Well, she always dressed well, but today was even more fancy than usual. Maybe an interview or something?

Oliver Greenwood Weasley's Wizard Wheezes | For Davs. <333 My taggy wag | Sheehanigans | Slytherin Capytain | Trixiver ♥ | No. I love YOU moar. The interview at the Prophet hadn't gone too badly considering Dylan's disorganisation and lack of magical portfolio. His photographs were mostly muggle due to his last job at a muggle newspaper, and in all honesty he preferred muggle pictures. He liked the stillness of them. It was impossible to capture something in an artistic way if it just kept moving around.
He felt light refreshment was in order, and, with his portfolio tucked under his arm, he wandered into the Leaky Cauldron. He paused to soak up the atmosphere for a moment. He hadn't been in here since his seventh year at Hogwarts. It hadn't changed all that much, except that the current clientθle was adults and not the school kids you would get in in the holidays.
He ordered a pint of ale and began to make his way over to the seating area..

He ordered a pint of ale and began to make his way over to the seating area.. Rhea had,had a long and exhausting two days, what with the adoption and everything. It was all still very surreal and she was hoping that she hadn't gone and messed up her life and an innocent baby's life as well. No Oliver had assured her that she would do a good job, plus she had her family and friends to hopefully help her get through this whole baby raising business. She covered a yawn as she walked into the leaky cauldron and headed to the bar, she could definitely use a drink, nothing too strong.
She got her order and was walking towards the seating area when a bee flew straight towards her face. Forgetting that she couldn't possibly flail and carry a glass of drink in her hand and flail at the same time, she sent the content flying and slipped, bumping into the person in front of her on her way down.

Oliver Greenwood Weasley's Wizard Wheezes | My taggy wag | Sheehanigans | Slytherin Capytain | Trixiver ♥ | No. I love YOU moar. Dylan was hovering beside a free table about to sit. He was in the process of putting his pint down when something knocked into him with force enough to cause him to stumble backwards, sending both his drink and his photographs a-flying.
He gaped for a moment, unconcerned about his drink.
But.. My photos! He exclaimed, trying to catch them as they gently floated down towards the pool of ale on the floor. He managed to catch a couple, but watched helplessly as the others landed in the liquid. My.... photos. He said again, defeated. He bent down to attempt to rescue the now soggy images.
He raised his eyes to the young woman who was the cause of this disaster, but it was impossible to be angry given the look on her face. In fact, it was almost comical. ..Are you alright? He asked, giving her a small concerned smile.
Yeah.. shame about his pictures.

Yeah.. shame about his pictures. No no no! This wasn't happening. She was falling and she definitely couldn't stop herself either, plus on top of that she had bumped into somebody else and sent their stuff flying. Rotten luck. She looked up apologetically at him and began pulling herself up, completely red faced. She had probably never been this humiliated in her life. The sad part was she brought it on herself.
She watched shame faced as his photos were ruined because of her clumsiness. If Oliver could see her now.. It was a good thing he didn't too or he would probably cackle himself to death. At least this guy was nice and wasn't about to hex her into next century. "Yeah...I think I'm ok, just a bit wet, but I can fix that right up." She brushed herself off and looked at him." I'm so sorry about your photos...." Wait..they weren't moving.." Are those muggle photos?" She asked with a hint of excitement in her tone.

Oliver Greenwood Weasley's Wizard Wheezes | My taggy wag | Sheehanigans | Slytherin Capytain | Trixiver ♥ | No. I love YOU moar. Dylan picked up one of his soggy pictures and studied it, 'ruined', and placed it on the table, then he realised his rudeness and looked at the young lady who looked like she wanted the ground to open up and swallow her. “..Excuse my rudeness.” He said humbly and reached out a hand to help her stand. He smiled at her words. “Magic comes in useful sometimes.” And brushed off her apology. “Don't worry. I'm pretty sure I have the negatives at home. For some of them anyway.”
He detected the excitement in her voice at the prospect of muggle photographs, and smiled more. She must be a pureblood.. unless she was also and artist? “They are." He nodded. "I prefer them to the magical kind for some subjects. The stillness of them. A unmoving photograph can capture so much more than one that wont sit still. You're welcome to look at them if you want. The beer adds a new dimension.” He grinned and gestured for her to sit. “May I get you another drink, miss... ?” He raised his eyebrows expectantly.

She didn't find him rude at all, in fact she was expecting more than an earful after ruining his photographs. She took his hand and steadied herself, then proceeded to sweep her wand around her, cleaning up the mess. Good as new, yeah she really loved magic. "yeah it comes in handy a lot." she felt her cheeks warm again. " I really am sorry about that and they seem to be such nice photos too."
Rhea was almost bouncing with excitement when he confirmed with her that the photos were indeed muggle. She really needed to tone down her girlish excitement now that she was a mom.
She listened to him speak and nodded in agreement. The more she was exposed to muggle things the more she could appreciate them. Well some things any ways. She still didn't get a hang of all the electriconemic stuff and figured she perhaps never would. "Oh yes please, I would love to look at them." she slid into the seat with perhaps the most grace she had displayed all day and reached for the photos. She oogled openly at them and looked up at him in amazement. " these are really good!" "Oh Bellaire, Rhea Bellaire but just call me Rhea and sure another drink would be great. Well actually drinking a drink would be great. Butterbeer please, I think I want to view them in this dimension." She smiled at him then looked back at his photos.

Oliver Greenwood Weasley's Wizard Wheezes | My taggy wag | Sheehanigans | Slytherin Capytain | Trixiver ♥ | No. I love YOU moar. There. Perfect. Amazing what a little bit of magic could do.
Dylan was aware of the young woman's embarrassment and he gave her a smile, hoping to put her at ease. He shook his head. It didn't matter. His pictures could be re-processed. He wasn't into the digital cameras of today’s age. There was something very satisfying about watching a photograph develop. Time consuming, yes, but worth it for the end result. “Why be mad when this can be fixed?” He replied parroting something his hippy mother always said. She was sometimes wise in her own way.
It was refreshing to see such excitement over something muggle. Most wizards were pretty familiar with the muggle world, but his girl had perhaps had a sheltered childhood? He chuckled a bit and handed her the photographs. “You're not particularly familiar with muggle things?” He asked her curiously. He smiled in a half shy, half proud sort of way when she complimented them. “Thank you.” He replied. “I hope the Daily Prophet agrees with you there.” Bellaire? The name rang a bell. Wasn't there a hotel chain of the same name? Coincidence surely. “It's a pleasure to meet you, Rhea. I'm Dylan Moore.” He laughed a little at her words about viewing his pictures in this dimension. "I think the liquior actually adds something." He said, looking over her shoulder at the ruined photograph. He nodded and stood, retrieving his wallet from his back pocket and went to get them each another drink. He returned a few moments later and and sat, placing a butterbeer in front of the pretty young woman.

He returned a few moments later and and sat, placing a butterbeer in front of the pretty young woman. Rhea felt a little more at ease after the man smiled at her and sort of relaxed a bit more. His comment made her smile too. So apparently there were decent people left in the world. " you know, I think that's actually a great saying to live by...I'm not just saying that because I messed up your pictures." She added quickly. Because she didn't want him thinking she was excuse her fault in this whole mess.
She looked up at him a little embarrassed when he asked if she wasn't familiar to muggle things. Was she that obvious? How embarrassing. Ugh today was not her day. " not growing up, but my friends have been doing a good job of teaching me. I learn a little something new everyday." "Oh you're welcome." what was he worrying about? Everything about his pictures were artistic and professional, he was a shoe in for the job.[B]" its quite obvious that you love what you do and take pride in your work. I don't think they'll pass up the opportunity to hire you." She said truthfully.
" I must say that the pleasure is all mine Dylan." She assumed he didn't want to be called Mr. Moore seeing as most people accepted being referred to like that when they were older...much older and this guy here didn't look old at all.
Wait. He didn't look bad at all, in fact he was quite handsome. She had definitely not been paying close enough attention early because of her embarrassment, but now that the embarrassment was over and the photos were viewed, she definitely noticed.
She looked over her shoulder to where his gaze fell and chuckled guiltily. " yeah, you're right. I suppose it does."
She looked over the rest of the pictures when he left to get them the drink and then had them packed away by the time he got back and seated himself. " so Dylan, where are you from?"

She took a seat down at an empty one and set her coffee down along with her things. Katrina set her bag down behind her, raised the cup and took a sip before flipping open the manila folder. Katrina swept her hair out of her eyes and then tied it up quickly. She would have to get through some papers.... then start reading the Prophet... which she didn't have much time to do with her little sister folding them into paper boats and the whatnot.

She took a seat down at an empty one and set her coffee down along with her things. Katrina set her bag down behind her, raised the cup and took a sip before flipping open the manila folder. Katrina swept her hair out of her eyes and then tied it up quickly. She would have to get through some papers.... then start reading the Prophet... which she didn't have much time to do with her little sister folding them into paper boats and the whatnot. The Leaky Cauldron just seemed like such a brilliant place to be. For one, you could get a drink of your choice, well as long as it was in reason and the service was pretty good.
Also, it was a great place to go people watching and Noah was a biiiiiiiig people watcher even if it was mostly for women. Sipping his butterbeer and resting on arm on the back of his chair, the young man's mouth literally dropped as the gorgeous blonde walked into the Leaky Cauldorn with a cup already in her hand.
Now what was she doing with such a thing when she could get a drink here?Maybe she was somewhat of a germaphobe and liked to use her own containers.
He continued to study her, watching her read first a folder that she had carried and then the Daily Prophet. 'A girl who likes to keep up to date with things.' Noah noted, wondering if she ever looked over the scores of teh Quidditch teams. That was always the most interesting thing to him, that or the comics.

Noah noted, wondering if she ever looked over the scores of teh Quidditch teams. That was always the most interesting thing to him, that or the comics. Katrina raised her cup to her lips to take yet another sip of the drink that could, probably, save lives. Only to realize she was pretty much done. She supposed she should head over to the bar to get another one but... not yet. She didn't quite want to get up. However, she looked up to see someone... staring... at her...?
She blushed as she saw him and buried herself back in the Daily Prophet. Oh look, Chudley Cannons... eh... she really needed another coffee though. And why was the guy staring at her? It was quite creepy. At this moment, she wished that her younger sister was here... Katrina already knew what the little girl would've done - walked right up to the person and start talking animatedly. But she couldn't just be afraid of going to get her coffee because of someone. What was she supposed to do? That was what she wanted and... for someone to stop studying her like a lab rat of sorts. She turned back around and walked over to the guy staring.
It was rude to stare after all. But when she opened her mouth, she didn't know what to say. Eep.

Noah noticed that the blonde woman noticed him and he gave a smirk that just produced so much confidence, it could make dying flowers smart up. He sipped at his butterbeer, set the glass down and ran his index finger along the rim of the glass in wonder before realising that he had a companion standing at his table.
Looking up, the young man smiled again and then rubbed at his five o'clock shadow in wonder. Was she going to say anything or just stand there. Maybe she was mute and couldn't talk, or didn't know how to speak English. "Hello there." Noah said slowly, waving his hand casually. "How are you?"

Katrina cleared her throat awkwardly, wondering how anyone could just stare at someone and then just... react to it all so... casually. Did it happen to this guy a lot? Probably because anyone else would've just... apologized or something. She readjusted the strap on her bag and looked up at the ceiling before back down at him. "Hi," Katrina said, realizing she sounded a tad bit nervous. "I'm fine," she said immediately before she realized what she had said. "I mean, I'm kinda fine, I was fine... what I'm trying to say is... can you stop staring... at me?" Katrina said, finally getting it out. Well... that wasn't that bad... right? Could've been worst she supposed...
At least she got it out right? Even if she, pretty much, just humiliated herself. She should just go get that coffee.

Noah glanced up at the ceiling a second after the blonde did, wondering if there was something up there of interest. However, when he heard her voice for the first time, she fully caught his attention once more.
A small smirk appeared on his lips and Noah sat back a little bit more in his chair. So she was put off by him watching her, alright then. An explanation was just in store. "I wouldn't call it staring miss, I tend to people watch when I'm in public and I noticed you and found you interesting." he replied innocently.

"I wouldn't call it staring miss, I tend to people watch when I'm in public and I noticed you and found you interesting." he replied innocently. WHAT?! Wait what? It wasn't staring and... watching people was something different? "It's..." Katrina started, still trying to find a way to word it differently in her mind. "It's rude, very rude, to watch people like that, as well as bit stalker like," Katrina said seriously, feeling a bit bad. Especially with the way he had replied to her horribly worded question. "And I would really appreciate it if you would stop," Katrina added. In a way, he kind of reminded her of her younger sister, and that was not someone she needed to be reminded of right now. "And, this 'miss' has a name, it's Katrina, Katrina Rayne," she added, holding out a hand for him to shake. Oh brilliant, she had just given a possible stalker her first and last name. What was she thinking?!

What was she thinking?! Alright, so she didn't want to be looked at. Noah began to look anywhere but at the woman now known at Katrina Rayne. It sounded a bit like a Muggle weatherwoman name, but he wasn't going to comment. "Noah Oter." the young man stated, running his thin fingers through his hair and running his finger along the rim of his glass again. "I would say it's a pleasure to make your acquaintance, Katrina, but since it's opposite day in your world, I fear that you'll only smite me for such a response."

Okaaaay... so no handshake, she dropped her hand back at her side, just so she didn't appear like some... weird person. Katrina nodded and struggled to put a smile on her face at his behavior. She gave him a bit of a puzzled look at the mention of an opposite day? He was definitely sounding more like her sister... but with better vocabulary. "I've no idea where... you got the idea that it was opposite day in my world, but it's nice to meet you as well," Katrina said, still a tad bit confused. And... smite him? Why one Earth would she do that? This man was definitely... confusing.

Merlin knows he could go for a cushion or something to make himself more comfortable. It was like being back at Hogwarts with this thing.
Sipping his butterbeer, he glanced at Katrina once more, to see if a, she sat down and b, if she was going to scold him like his mother would because he was looking at her and trying to find more about her just by the way she acted.
