Text Cut: Vi, Moving from the street

Em smiled. “Yeah, that was always kind of confusing. Just wait until you run into your professors now that you've graduated, and have to figure out what to call them. But yeah, Emmaleigh, or even Em is fine. I mean, that’s what Mel and Sam call me.” Even Ace had called her that before she officially became part of the family. “And honestly, the only people who call me Mrs Salander are Sal's work... associates.” She paused momentarily when she was looking for the right word, considering they were definitely not friends. After all, Sal had said himself they mostly just wanted something from him, and now her. “Are you fine with me calling you Vi, or would you prefer something else?” That was what she had always heard her referred to as, but that didn't mean it was what she wanted her to call her.

“Wonderful.” she said thinking they were getting along fine. “And that is a very good question. I was thinking of maybe checking Wiseacre's, but if you have any suggestions, I'm all ears.” There were many shops in Diagon Alley she'd never been to, and maybe Vi had been in one that looked more likely. “Yep, a hiking and camping trip that is actually long overdue, so I'm pretty excited. We're all going with my best friend.”

Heading into Florean's as they chatted, she ordered herself a scoop of Earl Grey and Lavender, and a scoop of Clotted Cream. Once Vi placed her order, she paid for them both. “If we get a table outside, we might catch Ace when he heads back this way.” Leading the way to the courtyard out front, she found them a place to sit where they could see the south side of the street.

Only the very best... It made her feel happy that Ace spoke so highly of her and so often... It must have meant that he really l- cared for her oh so very much. She had mentioned Ace on several occasions to her father and brothers but these days it seemed as if her brothers were more invested than her father was. Her father... just seemed tired -- drained by his taxing work days. Emmaleigh, hey? She felt a little more relaxed than before. "Okay, Emmaleigh, it is then. Sorry, I Just never know what to refer to my friend's parents as. If its their first name or something else," she offered with a small smile. Ace was here too? He hadn't told her that he would be visiting Diagon Alley today. Sure, she knew that he would be spending the day with his family and she respected that but the likelihood of them both ending up shopping in Diagon Alley after Hogwarts graduation seemed a little small (but not too small) of a chance. Perhaps Ace would stop by later but in the meantime his mother had offered to get some ice cream. Her treat. OOh now Emmaleigh was being a bad influence... and Vi LOVED it. "Sure, ice cream would be wonderful. Thanks," she said with a grin. Though as for a tent... "I'm curious as to where you would purchase a tent from here in Diagon. Planning on going camping?" Em smiled. “Yeah, that was always kind of confusing. Just wait until you run into your professors now that you've graduated, and have to figure out what to call them.
