Atlas had since ceased his gummy and jelly debate, now moving on to wondering what surprise vacation dad was likely to spring on the family this summer. Mum had been reluctant to share details in the latest letter, but Andromeda had been much more forthcoming...so the rising sixth year was now a little more in the loop as to why their summer beach trip to wherever it was had been suddenly canceled. This probably meant that dad was going to turn the whole thing into some academic vacation like what he was doing every winter break now with their trips north to see the Northern Lights. Atlas had not been keen about this kind of winter family vacation at first...but even he had to admit that getting to sleep in a glass igloo was really awesome. The trips also, admittedly, had ignited a genuine interest in astronomy. Unfortunately for dad, that mostly meant that Atlas was not better equipped with tools to troll the man in this Gryffindor's feigned confused between astronomy and astrology. The last trip to Finland had also produced a pretty dope experience in a snow tank safari AND the crew had even let him and Aries drive the vehicles...for like...a minute each, but it still counted.

Lost in thoughts (Teide National Park this summer?) Atlas would be kicking himself later for not being more aware of his surroundings, especially since those now included someone invading his space. Like...considering how LOUD his little housemate was... it was like that one saying, if Logan had been a basilisk...then Atlas would be dead already. So, not to say that he jumped out of his skin or anything...but Atlas did jump by the suddenly interaction...and dropped his little ladybug coin bag to the floor.

"Hopping hippogriffs," he yelp, rolling his shoulders to warm that cold shiver that had just shot up and down his spine before kneeling down to pick up his coin bag again. "Unless there is a cluster of hungry acromantula chasing after you..." or Ravenclaw girls, "...you gotta chill, Logan."

And with the sweet feeble but delightful sing-song tone of the trolley witch asking 'anything from the trolley', it was finally Atlas' turn to make his purchases.
