Probably would have to rely on obliviate or convince the poor muggles they were seeing things. Yes, definitely a better idea to just avoid that. "If you make something, do you have any ideas already of what you'd want to make?" Atlas' ability to create things was entirely inspiring to her. She did not have the mind or patience for it (if it didn't work the first time, she'd give up), but the fact he did and made such cool little creatures was probably one of the top skills of any of the Hogwarts students she could think of.

Her attention briefly turned to the shopkeeper as well, offering a smile. "I'm okay too! He's going to help me!" Even if she hadn't asked, she was relying on what she knew to be his kindness so far and follow along after him regardless. And hopefully try to not annoy him TOO too much.
Muggle area. Remote. All natural. It left him pretty limited with his options, like reliving the days of glitter bombing dad's office with one of the modified devices he had constructed in pursuit of revenge on Professor Holden (a memory he shared with Remy and Lisa). It had been an instinctual go-to option until he remembered dad's moaning and groaning about how glitter got everywhere and mum and Aunt June's pesterings about how most glitters were not biodegradable and blah blah blah. Seeing the path that Aries had set himself on, it was pretty apparent that Atlas needed to respect and consider these options now too.

"Pretty much limited to fudges and other mundane novelties...which Honeyduke's does have some of the best so...not a total wash," the seventh year shrugged. Zonko's sugar quills were a possibility but...well...those were now associated with another Gryffindor. Pursing his lips, Atlas found his mind a bit blank...but he was not about to admit to Vera that he was a bit lost with inspiration...nor did he want to divulge into the ideas and concepts for pranks he and Aries had thought out and had been intending to execute their seventh year. "I think I am leaning more towards something useful than something to prank him with," the blonde finally settled on vaguely. Dad had probably sent some lame novelty mug by now. "...or maybe a stethoscope but instead of listening to the internal sounds of the human body its tapped into the radio or something." A half gag gift of sorts and deceptively useful while also kind of being not useful and bulky.
