 Bathes in Maple Syrup | Dancing Lobster | Moy Pomidor | Seneca's Beard | That Is So Fetch!
The wand shop piqued her interest the instant she walked in. Rather than immediately jumping in line like her brother, Aryan, and Bryony had, Gilly made a slight detour to peruse the shelves more closely. The names that accompanied the display wands were familiar enough to her, and the wand-weigher machine was a contraption she found fascinating. Though it was the wandlore books that caught her attention, which wouldn't surprise anyone who knew her. Maybe one of them would explain in more detail how that machine functioned...
Whether or not one did, she wouldn't know because it was now her turn to be measured. While she had busied herself with browsing, the occasional glance at her sibling and friends during their measurements was enough to give her an idea of what to expect. Despite knowing what the magical tape would do, she was not fully prepared for how invasive the entire process could be. Was measuring her nose really necessary?
But the entire ordeal was over in a flash as the measuring tape finished measuring the circumference of her head and the length of each arm and finger before it whizzed off to whoever would be assisting them all. She contemplated going back to the shelves while they all waited, but positioned herself beside her twin. "What core do you think you think you'll get?" she asked him, mainly to keep him from overthinking about all the things.
