Perhaps they’d just expected it from the former Gryffindor, or perhaps something else was going on.

Sadly, even four years later nothing had stumbled across her path to set her off on an adventure, but one thing it did provide was the ease with which she could see her brother. Whenever Dáire remembered, that is, but today was one of those times. It was odd being in Diagon when school was out of session, but she enjoyed odd. A similar smile graced her lips as she saw the shop her brother was referring to. “Of course I remember, and it wasn’t our fault they didn’t know mirrors were possible entrances to Wonderland.” Which she still believed was an actual place, even as she understood most people didn’t. Their loss, and soon enough they had arrived at the butterbeer cart. Not that she’d known that was their destination, but it worked. “You can get me one too.”

Truthfully, the older Grenadine sibling was reaching that territory in which he was becoming self conscious about his lack of direction. Not that he had any plan of outwardly showing as much, or even telling anyone that - dearest sister included. It was sad enough that he had no idea where he was going with his life - he didn't need to whine about it too. He was glad to see how unperturbed she seemed to be with being in a similar situation. And honestly, perhaps a little envious.

As for that adventure she was hoping for? Daire was certain it would present itself soon enough.

As they reminisced, he laughed softly, the storefront getting another fond look from him. "If they had wanted to listen to our explanations, we could have made it quite clear. They didn't always need to call our parents right away." Also shouldn't people applaud a child's imagination? Inappropriate location to exercise those adventures of the mind was inconsequential. At her request, Daire quickly ordered two butterbeer ice creams. It took no time before they were offered back to him and he took one while offering the other to his sister. "Here ya go."
