It was weird, but walking into Ollivander's to get his very FIRST wand had the boy feeling a lot of BIG feelings. Excitement was the most predominant, because it was really, really getting real now. He and Gilly would soon be off to Hogwarts with their friends and they'd get all sorted into their houses, and he'd get to explore the greenhouses and the creatures with Aryan and see the kitchens and and... all the things he was really looking forward to doing. But Drake was also feeling a whole heap of anxiety. What if he got separated from everyone when they got sorted? What if they couldn't FIND him a wand? ... What if Mum was really sad that he and Gilly were both gone? It was a LOT and it probably showed for anyone looking as he picked at his pants with his fingernails, shifting from one side to the other but also trying to offer smiles to his companions and keep an eye on the door for his sister too.

It felt like an eternity, but also not really, until it was his turn to interact with the measuring tape. There was the smallest shake to his hands as he held out his arms for the thing, but as it darted underneath his armpit he couldn't help a small giggle as it tickled. He blushed a bit and glanced at the other two again, giving Aryan a small smile when he caught his eyes.
