And he would be waiting. Though the man could be charming, he found it was often easier and quicker to just hand the money over.

"I'd have been offered an espresso if I was in Paris," he bemoaned loudly as he wandered away from the desk to look at some of the other things that were on offer in this shop, questioning once more why he'd decided to make London his home for the last few years.

The intention of going to Wiseacre's had been in hopes of obtaining some floo powder, now that he'd noticed his stock was oddly looking depleted, but there didn't appear to be a lot on the shelves either. That was... puzzling, but he didn't spend too much time thinking on it given the sign of services offered caught his attention. Film development was it? Well, that would be helpful. He'd yet to locate a proper dark room now that he was back in London full time - having used to just use his room at his parents when he'd last resided with them full time. He wasn't too keen on visiting though, their relationships all still somewhat rocky, so... perhaps relying on someone else to develop would be just the way to go.

Tav followed along after another gent, probably around his age or perhaps older, as he rummaged through his bag to locate the camera rolls he knew to be in there. There was a lot of clinking and clanging coming from within, and he was regretting having used an extendable charm in order to hold all of his artwork. But finally, he pulled a triumphant hand out - camera rolls and a few wrapped lollies in it's grasp. Just in time too, as the other man seemed to be moving along so Tav stepped up to hand over his request.

He was not in a rush, but he also knew the chance of coming back to Diagon Alley in the next week around time spent with the girlfriend and classes was... slim. So even with the apparently urgent request in front of him, he figured it was probably worth killing time around here anyways. Especially when the other patron's words finally caught up with him. hm.. coffee DID sound good. And luckily for him, the lollies in his hand were different coffee flavors. Tav turned towards the other guy now perusing shelves as he stepped away. "I've got an espresso flavored candy. Want it?" As he popped a caramel macchiato in his own mouth.
