He didn't want to appear as out-of-place as he felt.
As he was heading to the apothecary he passed an odd cart where dowsing rods caught his eye. Those would be useful. The last thing he needed was for his potion to blow up again because he was unable to tell if the magnetic property was too high.
He stopped in front of the cart deciding that he'd need to get the rods too while he was down here.
The hag, for her age, was fast.
It took only seconds for the woman to walk around her cart at the sound of approaching feet, and lucky for her, because business had been slow, the person had stopped. But being a hag of her age, she was not happy about it. She didn't want
him to stand around
her cart all day and just stare at her merchandise. She wanted him gone, and she didn't care what Atropos had to say about it.
Picking up one of the dowsing rods she noticed him looking at, she began prodding him in the chest with it.
"You! What do you want?" SPOILER!!: Roselyn and Destiny

Surely whoever did would show them the opposite way to the exit out of here.
He had, however, been listening to what Mr. Durmstrang guy was saying. Famous wandmaker? Interning? Huh, he didn't take Nik as a wandmaker type. Perhaps more into some business that tested his physicality. "A difficult job." he nodded, looking around to where they ended up. "I wouldn't have zought you az a wandmaker zough." Grin. "Which wandmaker are you interning wiz?"
Where DID they end up? The Starry Prophesier? Hmph, that sounded like a bunch of divination stuff to him.
Not a fan.

He actually had things to do and just passing the shop windows, a few things might have caught his eye.
And no. He was not thinking about his reflection.
Dodging a few more of those shifties, Nikolai turned his attention back to Noel. He'd rather not make eye contact with anyone else..not that he wanted to make eye contact with Noel either.. He nodded his head at the difficult job comment; obviously Noel didn't realize he was having a go at him. And it seemed they both thought the same of eachother. "I think I surprised a lot of people with that choice." he shrugged. "Konstantin Fedorov. He made our wands." As in the Durmstrang Champions.
Where were they? "Looking to buy something here?"
Snicker.
The prodding of the first man stopped momentarily as two more decided to show their faces in front of her cart. Could none of them see that the green skinned woman did not want them there? And how could she miss the grin on the first man's face and the snickering coming from the second?
She had been stared at, laughed at and teased all her life, she was not going to stand there, in front of
her cart and do nothing about it.
Prodding the first man once again, she picked up one of her crystal balls and raising it above her head, she narrowed her yellow eyes dangerously.
"What do you want?"
