Fowl was looking forward to Hogwarts, of course. The castle seemed cool from what he'd read, and the grounds quite vast. There was no need to deny that he was excited but, unlike many of his classmates, he wasn't all jumpy and shriek-y about it. All wizarding kids eventually had to learn how to control their magic and most, if not all, of them who lived in the UK went to Hogwarts. It felt more of a natural process than a huge deal to him.
Feeling like the big boy that he was, which he enjoyed gloating about now that he was eleven by the way, Fowl pushed the door open to Scribbulus for both him and his Riri. He knew he needed quills of every kind, and maybe inks of various colours if he had spare coins for that, for Hogwarts. For homework, for note-taking, for the little scribbles he'd make when lyric-worth phrases come into mind. On top of that, the shop smelled nice. Wood. Scented candles. Almost natural.
"Hey, Riri?" The eleven year old said, picking up an inkwell of glow-in-the-dark ink to give it a little shake and inspecting it. "Did you know there are colours recommended for better memory retention?" Fowl felt like sharing that bit of information, even when he knew his older sister probably already knew too. Riri was smart, after all, and is, simply put, everything Fowl looked up to.
