... Plucking the parchment from his face with as much dignity as he could muster, Zeke scanned through the numbers and quickly ducked into the back room, emerging a few minutes later with a small stack of wand boxes, and approaching this next customer.

"Hello there," he said, warmly as ever, setting the wand boxes down to one side. "Ready to give these a whirl?" Zeke would hope so, given that she was standing here and had just been measured for a wand, and everything. He opened up the first box and offered the wand inside. "Give this a wave, and let me know how it feels." As for if it worked for her, well... they'd likely see that in action.
Something about the shopkeeper being thwapped in the face with his own parchment made Eulalia feel more at ease. He was just a shopkeeper, after all, it wasn't as though she was being fitted for a wand by the Minister of Magic himself. Though she supposed the Minister having parchment fly into his face might have the same effect. Smiling a little bit as she relaxed, Eulalia tucked the lizard further into her pocket.

"Hello,"
she said quietly. She nodded, of course she was ready to try a wand. She'd been ready for this day for what seemed like her entire life but was probably only about seven years or so. She gingerly took the wand from the box. She wasn't really sure what would happen, after all, and she didn't want the wand to decide to zap her or burn her fingers.

When no zapping or burning occurred, Eulalia swished the wand. When nothing happened, she exhaled in what might be perceived as a sigh of relief but was really just relief that she hadn't caused a giant mess. "I, erm, I don't think this is the right one?" she said. She looked at the shopkeeper uncertainly. Or maybe she had just waved it wrong? Could one wave a wand wrong?
