One time she had eaten a vomit flavoured one and ever since then she was more than a little hesitant to try them.
Deciding to bypass them all together, she set about adding other items to her basket. Sugar Quills, Licorice Wands, Ice Mice, and Pepper Imps were grabbed among other things. Should she add some Chocolate Frogs in for Juno? Esme bit her lip before adding some of those in as well.
Wasn't she just the nicest sister ever.
Carl loved Wizarding candy. Granted, he liked candy of any kind, but the magical ones were simply the best in the world! That was why he was in Sugarplum's that day. He did not come to Diagon Alley often and he wanted to stock up on his sweets before the school term began.
Holding a few chocolate frogs - his favorite - in both hands, the fourteen-year-old looked at the other displays. Drooble's Best Blowing Gums, Fizzing Whizbees, Sugar Quills... he liked all of them, but since he only had a few Galleons left, he had to choose carefully.
Speaking of choosing carefully, Carl noticed a familiar Hufflepuff hesitating before adding chocolate frogs into her basket.
"Hey, Esme!" He grinned at her.
"How have you been? Are you on a sugar splurge?" That was quite a lot of candies in her basket!
