Both of you ^_^ Sassenach | RAVENPUFF | Sing me a song of a lass that is gone | bookDRAGON | #awkwardturtle<# "Hiya," Lou said to the shopkeeper as he popped up. "Oh not at all." She understood all of the things that needed to be done in conjunction with customers. "Er well I suppose a history book, perhaps." She knew that it wasn't helpful at all. "History of Quidditch in Britain or something?" Her niece enjoyed history, and loved Quidditch, so surely she would love the two combined?
It was then that she spotted a book on the counter. It didn't look like it had anything to do with Quidditch, and her eyes passed over the cover and then darted back. It was a book about washing? But it wasn't just that it was an item her eyes moved over, it seemed to glow. As if entranced she moved closer to the book, and flipped the cover open. "Is this a new broom cleaning book?" she asked, as she flipped through the pages and saw photos of moving brooms - though she realised they weren't Qudditch brooms. Absentmindedly she ran her finger across the counter and then looked. She felt unusually relieved that not a speck of dust was there.
She hadn't even seen the young man enter the shop, nor what had happened. Marbles just seemed to go everywhere. Lou turned around at the sight and saw the young man standing there with a poster. She looked to see where such things had been kept, and where the marbles were. "Oh dear," she said. Usually she would have left the young man to pick the marbles up, but her hands just reached out before she knew what she was doing. The marbles were being scooped up by the copper-haired lady, ping-ping-pinging into the container.
