600 Years of Diagon Alley CelebrationJoin us this summer in celebrating 600 years of Diagon Alley with a special festival hosted by the Alley's shopkeepers.
Are you a creature lover? Maybe your kids or grandkids are? From the youngest witches and wizards to the oldest, we have something for everyone! Come join us for a meet and greet featuring some of our owls from the Owl Post Office and Owl Emporium as well as many other creatures from the Magical Menagerie. Learn about the different species and even get to pet and hold some of them! If you like what you see, why not adopt one?
The area has been roped off into a large Venn circle with three areas dedicated to each shop. Meeting in the middle space are scatted wooden stools to sit upon surrounding a wooden platform where, at certain times during the day, one of the three shopkeepers will give a short presentation and more intimate look at some of the creatures in their care.
Quote:
Monday - Friday
11:00 am - 11:45 am
'Meet & Greet' Magical Menagerie with Pippa Weatherbee
01:00 pm - 01:45 pm
'Meet & Greet' Owl Post Office with Zachaël Lufkin
03:00 pm - 03:45 pm
'Meet & Greet' Eeylops Owl Emporium with Colwyn Johanson
OOC: these dates and times are for a bit of additional IC fun and a way to help from your character's day and experience at the celebration. OOC, all RPing will be happening simultaneously and with no set schedule.
So step right up and be mindful of some of the free roaming creatures around this area. It is also requested that you try to keep your voices at a respectable tone as some of the creatures do not appreciate loud noises and follow the instructions of the shopkeepers at all times.

What… why…. Why were they volunteering? She didn’t know why… but it probably would be FUN because Remy was fun. So Lisa would go with the punches and decided not to question going up and volunteering any further.
It was nice that Remy didn’t complain about either V or Daniel because she had a few friends who didn’t like either one of them. So Lisa appreciated the simple comment about how comical it would be. She flashed a warm smile at Remy when the Gryffindor mentioned that they didn’t need any help because they were awesome. Lisa nodded affirmatively. “We are awesome and waaay cooler.” She’d still ask Claudine for help though. Claudine was smaaaaart.
“I mentioned it to Jasper, Alfie, Lia, AND Serena,” she beamed. Lisa knew for a FACT that Jasper, Lia, and Alfie would let Remy sit with them. Serena probably would too but Lisa wasn’t sure how well Serena and Remy knew each other. “Dont worry. Havent told Scarlett yet… we won’t get chastised for our flowers.” She stuck her tongue out jokingly at that comment. Hehe. She’d tease Scarlett about that one day… Sure Lisa had been salty in the moment but Scarlett was watching out for the roses. “I should mention it to Atlas and Aries but I haven’t seen them yet… Maybe you could go with one of them?” They were both housemates of Remy’s so Lisa imagined they probably (or hopefully) got along well. Lisa LOVED seeing her friends happy and excited because it made her HAPPY and EXCITED! So when Remy excitedly agreed to come try out, Lisa couldn’t help but clap her hands enthusiastically. She stopped clapping after Remy had mentioned the school thing, of course.
“Yeah… the play was an experience but.. the rehearsals were good! And no one got hurt. Serena saved the day!” Lisa knew she’d be safe anywhere with Serena around. The Slytherin had her back. Lisa just hoped to be as good as her friend one day to return the favour. “I understand why you wouldn’t want to….” Lisa would still audition nevertheless. She wasn’t going to let anything come between her and the STAGE. Even crazy Healers, candles, BREAD, and bruises!
Her questions were to gain intel. Lisa liked learning information. It was an asset. One that could be valued and traded Oh! Her sister was going to be a Healer too! “NO WAY! My brother wants to be a Healer too! He’s one year younger than she is. Noah’s his name. He’s going off to school this year. Took a gap year to travel but brought back plenty of gifts for me.” Maybe their siblings could be friends!!!! Like Minjae and Noah. If Anjya and Noah were friends, then they could have their older siblings drive them for get togethers and more! And they would t be upset about it because they’d be hanging out with their friend too. Brilliant? Brilliant. Lisa was quite chuffed with herself.
“I’m looking forward to it!” she beamed because guitar sounded awesome and then suddenly…. Someone was pointing at them. The lady was pointing at them. Lisa looked quickly to Remy to see if they would bow out. When it became clear that they weren’t (which was quick because Lisa knew how quickly her friend had volunteered), she sighed and took her friend’s hand and stepped forward. “Reporting for duty, uh… ma’am!”
Remy was proud that Lisa agreed to their awesomeness. Sure, as first years, they may have needed a bit of help here and there, but that was in the past. The Gryffindor had plans to push herself from this moment onwards, which could end in disaster, but at least her heart was in it.
Lisa had already told soooo many people, but Remy approved of the others in question, and would definitely sit with them, although she didn’t know Serena much at all. Apart from her famously taking down Healer Poppy, of course. Was she the next Harry Porter? “Okay, I’ll definitely come along then.” She felt her cheeks turn a little pink at the mention of the Flamsteed twins, especially when Lisa assumed that SHE would be the best person to ask them. “Yeah, I’ll, umm… I’ve been hanging out with Atlas quite a lot so I’ll ask him.” She couldn’t help but grin as she said his name.
Lisa made some good points. The auditions and practices had been a lot of fun. “I guess, as they say, the snow must go on!” Plus Healer Poppy had gone now so there was nothing to be afraid of. “Okay, okay… I will audition again next term.” She couldn’t fall behind on acting training especially when her friends were potentially all taking classes outside of school like Lisa was! Why hadn’t she thought about summer acting camps?!?
Her eyes widened at the revelation of her brother training to be a Healer, too! WHAATTTT??! “No WAY!!” Remy repeated Lisa’s excitement mere seconds after she said it. “I wonder if they know each other?” Her mind may have travelled already to their siblings getting married so that she and Lisa could be sisters but maybe that was going a little too far. “I’ll ask Anjya later.” Remy beamed.

Not completely hidden where you can't see them at all, and definitely not in people's bags or pockets or anything. Just tucked beside or on top of things. And give me a shout when you're finished.[b]" Pippa smiled encouragingly, then turned back to her ravens.
"And while the girls are doing that, let me show you how smart Balder is." Pippa set the large white raven down on another perch and, reaching into one pocket, pulled out a raven treat. "I'm going to offer him this piece of food, like I've done many times before at home." Pippa held onto one end of the treat and held the other out toward the raven. "Here, Balder, here's one of your treats!"
Balder sat calmly and did nothing.
"Look, its your favorite," Pippa said coaxingly. But no matter how temptingly she presented the treat, the white raven remained firm.
Turning to the audience, Pippa said, "Balder knows from past experience that he has a choice between getting a treat right away, but that if he's willing to wait a bit, he'll get a better one. And so he almost always waits. And he has marvelous self control, doesn't he? Better than I do!" Pippa here reached into her other pocket and pulled out some sort of rectangular, key-like object.
"But Balder doesn't just get the special treat by just waiting, he has to solve a puzzle to get the good stuff. This key, if it's pushed into the hole in this box," and here Pippa gestured to the chest she'd set out on the stool, "will unlock it and Balder can get three treats instead of just one. Watch what he does."
Pippa set the key on the palm of one hand and the raven treat on the palm of the other and held them both out toward Balder the Raven. He immediately reached out, picked up the key with his beak, and gently set off from the perch and glided over to the stool holding the chest, where he dropped the key into a hole in the top and pushed it in. The lid of the chest sprang open immediately and Balder hopped onto the edge of the box and proceeded to devour his treats.
"Ravens are really intelligent, as I've said. They can remember things and learn. They'll also remember people who are nice or mean to them, so if you want to make friends with any you see out of doors, try giving them some peanuts or raisins or dried fruit, and you can become their best friend!"
Leaving Balder to his justly-won treats, Pippa turned back to soothe the rather jealous pair of black crows as she looked around the area to see if her volunteers were finished hiding the balls.
Remy had already started to pull Lisa by the hand towards the front to join in with the demonstration. She felt little tummy flutters as she got closer to the creatures. She wasn’t scared but you always had to be a little reserved when dealing with animals, especially ones unknown to you. Remy nodded at the instructions and took the four balls into her hands.
Following Pippa’s advice, Remy placed the balls in sight but all at a good distance from each other, including tucked into corners and half underneath a rug.
“There. All done.” She grinned and returned to her starting position in front of Pippa Weatherbee.

Why she'd agreed to come see all the creatures, Honora wasn't really sure. Maybe Carson was just exceptionally persuasive. Maybe she was just that desperate to spend time with anyone other than the two children she'd been nannying.
Maybe she was just a good friend.
But she had to draw the line somewhere. At his suggestion she volunteer to hold who-knew-what kind of animal (she hadn't been paying close attention), she shook her head, her blonde hair flinging about. "Absolutely not," she said firmly, trying to identify what he wanted her to even volunteer for. Ravens? Well, she supposed it could be worse than ravens. But luckily some others volunteered, so she was hopefully off the hook. She gave Carson a sheepish smile. If it was like...a cat, or rabbit, he could volunteer her for that.
Balder the raven was really quite smart! The demonstration suddenly had Carson wishing that life as a human being could be as easy. You wait patiently (something he was already good at), solve a puzzle (something he was ... not so good at), then you get a better reward. Nope, didn't work like that in the human world.
Even while watching the demonstration and questioning the meaning of life, he noticed that Honora did not seem interested in the ravens. He could empathise with her - ravens were not as fascinating as, say, fire-crabs or streelers, and anyway, he knew that she was not as curious as him about magical creatures. He was just grateful that she had come with him to the meet 'n' greet in the first place. A good friend, indeed. "Hey, we can go somewhere else if you'd like!" he suggested, nodding to show that he was okay with it. "Is there anything you wanted to do?"

Admittedly, Tomas felt a little embarrassed for having stepped up to speak to him. "I- eh," he stumbled over his words for a moment or two as his brain searched for the ones that he needed. "They are OK." Is what he eventually went with.
He did not mind owls so much, but they were by no means his most favorite of animals. He was always kind to those who came by the house for delivery and always took extra care to give them treats for their efforts. He took great care in thanking those that made delivery runs for him too. So maybe he should not have settled on just 'OK'. But it was too late to change his words now.
Instead, he tried to elaborate, in hopes that he could explain himself better. "I am more fond of cats, but owls, they are good animals too." He had no idea who he was speaking to, if that weren't obvious.
"Copper here will be eight next month. He's in very good health and I'm hoping that remains the case for him so he sees many more happy years." Colwyn smiled at the man standing before. "If we get lucky Copper will get to be around twenty or so one day." Possibly older if he had anything to do with it. Seeing that his owls were always in the very best of health that they could be in was something he tried his hardest to do.
Ah, so the young man wasn't a owl person. Well, that was alright. Not everyone was. Col understood that and he wasn't going to push an owl onto anyone that didn't want one. That would be a true disaster for both the man and the owl.
"Oh, cats are lovely too, yes. I do like them myself. I'm sorry to say I don't have any in my exhibit but Pippa might be able to help you if you are looking for one today?" He nodded over at Pippa. "I'm Colwyn by the way. Colwyn Johanson shopkeeper at Eeylops Owl Emporium." He probably should've mentioned that earlier.

Colwyn noticed yet another gentleman who seemed to be looking around and gave him a small smile in greeting. Having just finished his demonstration and with his owls all calmly resting in their cages he made his way over towards him. "Hello, my name is Colwyn Johanson. I'm the Shopkeeper at Eeylops Owl Emporium, is there anything I can assist you with?" He was always happy to help anyway that he could.
Austin looked up and nodded.
"Was hoping to adopt an owl." he said. Austin was still not good at talking to people on his own, usually needed to be prompted to. What he said wasn't a total lie. He wanted to adopt a niffler but would gladly take an owl too.
Remy had already started to pull Lisa by the hand towards the front to join in with the demonstration. She felt little tummy flutters as she got closer to the creatures. She wasn’t scared but you always had to be a little reserved when dealing with animals, especially ones unknown to you. Remy nodded at the instructions and took the four balls into her hands.
Following Pippa’s advice, Remy placed the balls in sight but all at a good distance from each other, including tucked into corners and half underneath a rug.
“There. All done.” She grinned and returned to her starting position in front of Pippa Weatherbee.
Pippa had moved Baldur back to her third of the petting area when he was finished with his treats, so he wouldn't get jealous of Troy and Cressie when it was their turn, and by the time she had settled herself back on the platform, one of her volunteers was standing there in front of her saying she was done hiding the balls. "Excellent!" Pippa beamed at her, and then cast a glance around the room to see if the other girl was finished, too. Hopefully she was, because Pippa needed to finish up this part of her show soon so things could keep moving along.
Turning back to the audience, Pippa went on. "Here in one side of this contraption," pointing to two tube-like objects now sitting on the stool-transfigured-into-a-table, "there's a tube filled with water, and on the other side there's a little basket thingie containing some of Troy and Cressie's favorite treats. But as you can see, it's too low in the tube and they can't reach it.," Pippa motioned to the two ravens who had flown over to the table and were now taking turns in trying to stick their beaks into one of the tubes to pull out the treats, unsuccessfully.
"But if they find the balls we've hidden and put them down the other tube, it will raise the water in the first tube until the treats are high enough for them to grab. Let's watch and see if they can do it." And here Pippa stood back and turned to watch her raven pair. Sure enough, eventually Troy and Cressie began flying over the room looking for the balls, which they found soon enough, and one by one, they flew back to the platform and dropped each ball in the water-filled tube, pushing the water over to the other side and raising their treat basket higher and higher. Finally Cressie managed to pull it out and the two mates eagerly shared the treats between them.
"So let's give a hand to all the ravens, and also to our two excellent volunteers," and here Pippa beamed at Remy and Lisa. "And if anyone wants a closer look or to talk more about adopting a raven, please see me over in the Magical Menagerie section."
Satisfied with the way the ravens behaved--so much better than the jarveys--Pippa let Troy and Cressie perch on each of her arms as she ended the spells she'd placed on everything and levitated her equipment back to her corner of the room. Now there was just the finale to go, but that would come later, after the other shopkeepers had had a chance to speak.

If Lisa were a mind reader, she would have answered Remy’s question about Serena being the next Harry Potter with a smirk and the reply of ‘She’s even better than Harry Potter, mate’. But she couldn’t read minds so instead she focused on her friend’s interesting reaction to the mention of the Flamesteed twins. Did she detect a slight rogue on Remy’s cheeks? She brightened her smile a little more when Remy mentioned that she had hung out with Atlas and planning on hanging out with him a lot. “They’re nice!” Both Flamsteed boys had their quirks but Lisa was fond of both of them even if Atlas had convinced her that her Kneazle was out to get her aaaaaand had gotten their hands stuck together. The blush on Remy’s cheeks was a little telling so Lisa pushed a little further. She didn’t know which Flamsteed her friend liked better but assumed Atlas was the one because she had named him. “Theeeeen you should also him to be your plus one! Everyone needs a dynamic duo for a show! Or triad unless Aries brings someone…?” she mused.
Lisa Nam always thought she had good points and prided herself on convincing Remy to audition next year for the school play. “Yay! I’m glad,” she beamed with a round of applause (clapping as she circled her hands). She smirked, quite pleased with her good doing here in this moment, before turning back to the show at hand.
“I don’t know but we should introduce them!!!” beamed Lisa. Remy’s excitement over their siblings studying the same thing was infectious and Lisa, too, was already plotting about how she could force their siblings to be friends or better MARRIED so that Remy and her could hang out all the time. Even though she had gone through a phase of tryying (and failing) to get her to go after his ex-girlfriend and then reluctantly giving in and deciding that Aboli was nice and that she liked her, her mind was already working on a plan. “I’m thinking a June wedding would be nice,” she commented to her friend, pretending that the two of them had just had a conversation about their two siblings getting married.
She gave Remy’s hand a squeeze when they were on stage before following the task at hand. Hiding the little balls. She went about doing that and then looked to Remy and then Pippa for the next task. And the Ravens went to work- what magnificent creatures of intelligence. Lisa was in awe (and frankly proud because SHE WAS LIKE A RAVEN well as a ravenclaw) as she watched them find all the balls. Lisa clapped her hands again before bowing her head to Miss Pippa and heading off the stage.
Balder the raven was really quite smart! The demonstration suddenly had Carson wishing that life as a human being could be as easy. You wait patiently (something he was already good at), solve a puzzle (something he was ... not so good at), then you get a better reward. Nope, didn't work like that in the human world.
Even while watching the demonstration and questioning the meaning of life, he noticed that Honora did not seem interested in the ravens.

He was just grateful that she had come with him to the meet 'n' greet in the first place. A good friend, indeed. "Hey, we can go somewhere else if you'd like!" he suggested, nodding to show that he was okay with it. "Is there anything you wanted to do?"
Honora had to admit she was impressed by this ravens-doing-tricks. They were really smart. It was...a little scary, if she were being honest. And ravens would remember you? She made a mental note not to ever cross a raven. Maybe she'd set out a birdfeeder in her little brother's garden, if he'd let her. She ducked as...Troy and Cressie, was it?, flew around looking for the balls to get their treats. Did ravens understand facial expressions? Did she have to pretend she liked them, or just leave them alone? She was very glad she didn't have to supervise any children here. Though the ones helping the Magical Menagerie lady with the demonstration seemed well-behaved.
She pulled her attention back to Carson, looking more than a little concerned about this genius raven business. She pulled a small smile onto her face at his suggestion they could do something else. "Oh," she said quietly. Was that okay? She had agreed to this, after all. "I think I saw a mirror maze or something?" She had also seen a commemorative coin booth, which she was fairly certain her granddad would have loved. But Carson would probably find it boring, and they were looking for something they could both enjoy.

"Good day to you too Sir," Will echoed automatically with a small smile pursing his lips. His mum had drummed in manners since he was 3 or something.
Shaking his head he said thoughtfully to the adult man. "I'm not sure if I do actually have a favourite creature. I like a lot of creatures though, but my parents doesn't allow pets in the house unless you can count our ancient barn owl harry who is like 30 years old or something."
Sir. Ugh. He really was at that age though, he supposed. Still, being called 'sir' made him paranoid about grey hairs and it was a thought that made him want to preemptively purchase a few hats. Just in case. The horror...the nauseating horror. Nuria was the sort to pluck any grey hairs right out should she spot any...and thus far all of the Owl Post owls were only playfully tussling and affectionately grooming his luminous locks.
But...enough about his internal monologue regarding his hair.
Refraining from the urge to correct the young man on specifics, Zachaël simply smiled and took the number as an attempt to illustrate how old the family owl was. It sounded like Harry was in need of retirement. "A family that prefers to keep a more practical pet," he mused instead while offering the owl perched on his shoulder one of his fingers to nibble on. "Owls not only make for outstanding familiars to witches and wizards, but they are also vital vessels for communication and conduits for magic." With these praises, Zachaël puckered his lips for Waful to sneak in a little beaky smooch. "Would you like to hold your arm out and see if Waful will perch on it?"

Now that she had gotten her wand, Sophie was determined to find a suitable magical creature to accompany her to Hogwarts. Gold in hand from her parents, she'd practically skipped to the Creature Meet n' Greet, where different shops from around the Alley were showing off their creatures. She was 90% sure she was going to get an owl. It would be very practical, of course, and also she thought snowy owls were so beautiful. However, part of her thought a cat might be nice. It could cuddle with her in the common room and follow her around the castle...No way would she get a toad. Reptiles of all sorts creeped her out, which was somewhat ironic as her mother was a proud Slytherin.
It was 1 pm on a Saturday, and the sign said that there would be a grooming demonstration soon. Sophie joined a group of other kids, who she assumed would be her future classmates, and she raced to find a spot in the front before they were all taken.

Did he hear him correctly? Had he said he wanted to adopt an owl? Colwyn grinned widely at Austin. The young man had said such wonderful words, it was like music to his ears. "Well you've come to the right place. I can definitely help you with that. Is there a certain species of owl you were thinking about? Do you have any prior experience with owls?" The reason he was asking these questions was so that he could help to quickly narrow down who would be the best match. It was always important to make sure the owl and the person got on well together.

My, oh my, would you look at the nice little crowd that was gathering round for this afternoons grooming sessions! Colwyn couldn't be more thrilled with how the Meet & Greets were going. It seemed like each one the group was getting larger, the questions more involved, the people more alert and he LOVED it!
"Good afternoon! I'm Colwyn but you can all call me Col if you like, I'm the shopkeeper over at Eeylops Owl Emporium," he gave everyone a warm welcoming smile. "This afternoon I have some friends here with me that will be helping me with some demonstrations on proper grooming etiquette for owls. Now typically an owl will tend to themselves fairly well but occasionally they may need a bit of help due to old age, illness or injury."
Giving a soft whistle two elf owls seemed to appear out of nowhere overheard and silently landed on the perch beside him. "Here we have Dawn and Dusk. They are a bonded pair of Elf owls. They will be helping me today. But before we start does anyone know how an owl might groom themselves or one another?" Time to get those young minds working!

But as you can see, it's too low in the tube and they can't reach it.," Pippa motioned to the two ravens who had flown over to the table and were now taking turns in trying to stick their beaks into one of the tubes to pull out the treats, unsuccessfully.
"But if they find the balls we've hidden and put them down the other tube, it will raise the water in the first tube until the treats are high enough for them to grab. Let's watch and see if they can do it." And here Pippa stood back and turned to watch her raven pair. Sure enough, eventually Troy and Cressie began flying over the room looking for the balls, which they found soon enough, and one by one, they flew back to the platform and dropped each ball in the water-filled tube, pushing the water over to the other side and raising their treat basket higher and higher. Finally Cressie managed to pull it out and the two mates eagerly shared the treats between them.
"So let's give a hand to all the ravens, and also to our two excellent volunteers," and here Pippa beamed at Remy and Lisa. "And if anyone wants a closer look or to talk more about adopting a raven, please see me over in the Magical Menagerie section."
Satisfied with the way the ravens behaved--so much better than the jarveys--Pippa let Troy and Cressie perch on each of her arms as she ended the spells she'd placed on everything and levitated her equipment back to her corner of the room. Now there was just the finale to go, but that would come later, after the other shopkeepers had had a chance to speak.
She paused for a moment to consider telling Lisa about her little crush on Atlas. Truthfully, she had a crush on about six classmates in total but Atlas was the one she was closest with, and that made a difference. Lisa was, of course, trustworthy, but she was also friends with him… so things could get whispered on if she wasn’t careful. Who was she kidding - she was 12 and had no self control over stuff like that!! She shielded her mouth a little to utter, “Between you and me… he’s gotten a little cuter over summer.” Followed by a high pitched giggle. “I’m sure he’d like to come.” With her, with Aries, with whoever. Whatevs.
This was good… Lisa was thinking the same thing as her with regards to getting their siblings to hang out, and she must be a mind reader because she was also wedding planning. “A June wedding would be perfect. Nice and sunny.” Remy beamed. “So we’re basically sisters, right?” Remy would love nothing more than to be sisters with Lisa because she was the absolute bestest bestie. She hoped they’d hang out even more in their second year.
The Gryffindor beamed proudly as the ravens found the balls, and lapped up the attention from the crowd. It was right up her street to be on stage like this. Oh, was that it…?
Rent followed her friend off stage and then sighed a little. “I was hoping we’d get to feed them, or at least pet them.” She gave a small shrug of her shoulders.

My, oh my, would you look at the nice little crowd that was gathering round for this afternoons grooming sessions! Colwyn couldn't be more thrilled with how the Meet & Greets were going. It seemed like each one the group was getting larger, the questions more involved, the people more alert and he LOVED it!
"Good afternoon! I'm Colwyn but you can all call me Col if you like, I'm the shopkeeper over at Eeylops Owl Emporium," he gave everyone a warm welcoming smile. "This afternoon I have some friends here with me that will be helping me with some demonstrations on proper grooming etiquette for owls. Now typically an owl will tend to themselves fairly well but occasionally they may need a bit of help due to old age, illness or injury."
Giving a soft whistle two elf owls seemed to appear out of nowhere overheard and silently landed on the perch beside him. "Here we have Dawn and Dusk. They are a bonded pair of Elf owls. They will be helping me today. But before we start does anyone know how an owl might groom themselves or one another?" Time to get those young minds working!
Sophie listened attentively from her spot in the front. She'd never been inside Eeylops, but she'd admired the owls in the window every time she passed by with her parents during afternoon shopping trips. When Colwyn, the shopkeeper, whistled for the owls, Sophie exclaimed with the rest of the group. "Oooooh!"
At Col's question, Sophie's hand shot up in the air. Before he could even call on her, she declared, "Owls preen themselves, don't they? Where they sort of use their beaks to clean out their feathers?"

As usual, Clivert Higgs was uncomfortable in Diagon Alley. He wouldn't have come today at all if he hadn't thought Theodora would love it. Despite the many years at Stemp House, Clive couldn't shake the habit of looking for escape routes in a crowd. Keeping alert, the almost sixteen year old tried to walk as close as he could to the shop fronts, but the throngs of people seemed to keep trying to pull him and Theodora to the centre. He touched his forehead where he felt a light sheen of sweat. ... Hot and packed. The worst.
"Hey, Theodora," he spoke gently, tapping his sister's shoulder. "Do you want to go look at some creatures?" Clive offered with a smile, gesturing towards the roped off area. It seemed like something she'd like, in his opinion, and it could be a nice respite from the summer shopping horde. Just for a bit.

The Gryffindor beamed proudly as the ravens found the balls, and lapped up the attention from the crowd. It was right up her street to be on stage like this. Oh, was that it…?
Rent followed her friend off stage and then sighed a little. “I was hoping we’d get to feed them, or at least pet them.” She gave a small shrug of her shoulders.
Back at her area of the Adoption Booth, Pippa turned back and saw the two girls who'd been helping her still standing near the presentation area. She'd half expected them to follow her when she invited the crowd to come take a look at the ravens. Probably she should have said something to them, she thought, but there had been so many things to think of--the 3 ravens, untransfiguring everything, getting cleared out before the next presenter was due.
She gestured at them to come over, if they'd like. She needed to stay here because there were people who needed pets and creatures who needed homes!
Refraining from the urge to correct the young man on specifics, Zachaël simply smiled and took the number as an attempt to illustrate how old the family owl was. It sounded like Harry was in need of retirement. "A family that prefers to keep a more practical pet," he mused instead while offering the owl perched on his shoulder one of his fingers to nibble on. "Owls not only make for outstanding familiars to witches and wizards, but they are also vital vessels for communication and conduits for magic." With these praises, Zachaël puckered his lips for Waful to sneak in a little beaky smooch. "Would you like to hold your arm out and see if Waful will perch on it?"
Will raised his eyebrows in confusion as he repeated to the older dude. "A more practical pet?" Did he mean that Harry wasn’t practical because he was old? Will could agree with that secretly, but Harry was still family and he loved him. Getting curious he asked "Can owls transport magic?" Or had he misunderstood the whole thing? It wasn’t unusual that he sometimes drifted off in own thoughts or got distracted when older people gave him a lecture on something he already knew about, in this case owls. Will wasn’t going to tell the older guy that though. Instead he considered the offer for a moment. Holding his arm out towards the owl, he asked "Is Waful nice? I don’t want to be bitten." He had a few scars from where Harry had bitten him in the past so he knew how sharp owl teeth were.

He had a few scars from where Harry had bitten him in the past so he knew how sharp owl teeth were.
Waful had the sharpest and bestest talons. He also head the shiniest and bestest feathers. He ALSO had the brightest and bestest eyes. Everything about Waful was the best and he worked hard to keep it that way. But what Waful did not have the best of were teeth and that was simply because owls did not have teeth to begin with. If they did, however, you could be sure that Waful had the best of those too.
Hearing his name spoken by the curly haired master, Waful ruffled his feathers a bit and decided to take action rather than perch and look pretty. Spreading his handsome wings and showing off his very impressive wingspan, the snowy owl gave a please 'hoot hoot' before hopping the distance from the shoulder he was already comfortable on to the considerably narrower shoulders of the boy. Another friendly hoot hoot later and his head turned some 210 degrees to look back at the Owl Post shopkeeper with an expectant click of the beak.
Treat, now. He deserved it. Waful was a very impressive and busy owl.

Hearing those 'Ooohs and Aaaahhhhs' from the crowd is what it was all about. Little tricks like that captured their attention so that he could talk for a few moments about grooming or eating habits. There had to be a little fun and entertainment with the learning mixed in otherwise it could grow boring. He knew that and he didn't want it to happen.
That's also why he liked to engage the crowd in what he was doing as much as he could as well. So when a young girl up front answered right away before he could even call upon he chuckled. "That's right!," Colwyn nodded his head as he pointed a finger at the girl. "Owls not only preen themselves but they will preen one another as well if they are comfortable with each other." Dawn seemed watching the children in the crowd but Dusk was using his beak to clean his feathers as the girl had said.
"Not only will they use their beaks to clean themselves but they will also use their talons. The two outside talons are called the 'feather combs' and these help them to clean their heads." Which as if on cue Dusk was now doing. One might come to think that the owl knew exactly what Col was saying and was showing the group or it was an incredible fluke.

On the one hand, getting to visit Diagon Alley with her brother was an adventure, so Theodora had been all for it when the idea had first come up. Even if there was a part of her that knew it had all been for her and she knew he was likely looking for every avenue of escape had anything dangerous happened to them. She fully believed Mrs. Stemp wouldn’t have let them come if there was risk of the creepy cult people appearing, or, probably more likely, the witch who had kicked them out of their childhood home. Either way, she had chosen to look at it as an adventure, and was already thinking of things she could get for Sophia as a gift because besties did that, and of course Guy Fawkes the plushie phoenix was along for the adventure so he didn’t need a present.
She had been actively looking around at all the people and everything else happening when she’d felt the tap on her shoulder, and she tilted her head to look up at her brother. “Absolutely. Think they have any phoenixes over there?,” she replied, gaze flicking over toward the roped off area as she’d spoken. Seeing a real-life one would be amazing. Plus, maybe her brother would relax a bit in a smaller crowd.

Sophie thought Dawn and Dusk were super cute. They seemed so smart too. As Col talked, it seemed as if the owls were listening and began to demonstrate on cue.
She was pleased to have gotten the answer right, although she didn't know about feather combs. Watching Dusk comb the feathers on his head was cute but also a little funny. Sophie giggled and raised her hand to ask another question.
"If I adopt an owl, what should I do to help clean her if she gets really dirty or can't clean herself?"
Pippa was pleased with how things were going at the Celebration. She'd placed any number of dogs, puppies, crups, cats, kittens, and kneazles, not to mention bunnies and hamsters and birds, with just the right homes. But now it was time for her last presentation--the grand finale. She looked down at the animals that were going to join her and which were all looking up at her in gleeful anticipation. "Okay, you all, it's show time!" she said in a low voice, and the, followed by two well-behaved creatures, she made her way back to the central platform.
"Hello, everyone, thanks for coming to my final presentation and for coming down to Diagon Alley for our Celebration! These last creatures I'm going to talk about are some of the smartest, most loyal, and most affectionate magical creatures known to the wizarding world.
"First, I give you Barnaby!" And as she said the name, a little brown and white dog jumped up onto a low stool Pippa had placed there for him. But...wait...that wasn't quite a normal dog, was it?
"Barbaby is a Crup, a magical creatures native to our England. As you can see, it looks a lot like a terrier, except for its tail." Barnaby wagged its peculiar forked tail back and forth for emphasis. "The Crup is almost certainly a wizard-created creature; they are intensely loyal to wizards, but tend to be ferocious toward Muggles, so it's best not to get one if you have Muggle friends and relations.
To own a Crup, you're required to pass a test at the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures at the Ministry, to show you can keep it under control in Muggle areas. You're also required to crop its forked tail, with a painless severing charm, when they reach six to eight weeks of age, so Muggles won't notice." Barnaby stood on his hind legs and hopped in a circle so the audience could clearly see him from all angles, then accepted a treat from Pippa before hopping down from the stool and going to sit quietly by Pippa's feet. "Thank you, Barnaby," she said.

Atlas has gotten cuter? Lisa raised her eyebrows mischievously at her friend. “Has he? Oh.. um… has Aries gotten cuter too?” she inquired. The Flamsteed twins had always been nice to her even if Atlas had tried to convince her the Hogwarts Kneazle was out to get her… Then again Lisa supposed that he was warning her because he didn’t want her to get severely injured. She admired Atlas for his intelligence. And Aries… Aries was sweet too. She fondly remembered the time that they had gone bird watching together. She had once made fun of such an activity but it… it had been a rather lovely experience. Lisa was glad that Atlas would probably come and hopefully he, Remy, and Aries would go together.
Lisa smirked, casting a secretive look to Remy as if they were hatching the best prank or best plot of their lives. Well. They practically were. She nodded, watching the animals in front of them (or pretended because she was imagining the whole set up and wedding. “Delightful weather even.” She could picture the wedding clearly in her mind. Lisa pursed her lips. It would happen. They would make it happen. A smile appeared on her lips as she watched her friend beam with excitement. Remy’s excitement was naturally infectious causing her to grin more. “Of course we are! We may be in different houses BUT that doesn’t matter! Maya and Noah are in different houses to me and Evan. Maya’s a Slytherin. And Noah was a Gryffindor.”
She sighed when they exited the stage both relieved and saddened that they hadn’t been able to feed the creatures. Out of the corner of her eye, she did notice Pippa looking at them. “Hey… Rem. Let’s go see the creatures over there!” she whispered and gently tugged her friend along.

Uhhh.
Why did she have to keep bringing Aries up? Take the hint, Lisa!!! Now Remy just felt bad about not having thought about Aries in that way, but as soon as it did cross her mind… she couldn’t deny it really. “Um, of course. They’re both cute, that’s what I meant to say.” Remy gave a defeated look and then looked over her shoulder to check no one was in ear shot. It seemed that every time she told a bestie about her little crush they said something to embarrass her.
“My sister was in Gryffindor, TOO!!! They probably already know each other, right?” If not, let’s headcannon it right now. Remy gazed off to imagine them both being secret lovers, too afraid to admit one another’s feelings for each other, reunited because of their meddling CARING kid sisters. Remy offered Lisa a fist bump to confirm their new sisterhood.
Remy sighed alongside Lisa but her attention was immediately caught by the Crup that was now on stage. “Awwww!” She exclaimed. They’d definitely have to feed the Crup. Remy waved her hand in the air at Pippa, clearly volunteering again despite the woman not even asking for volunteers.

Pippa smiled as she saw one of her volunteers raising her hand again--these two just couldn't get enough of creatures, could they? But Pippa couldn't keep the Kneazles waiting, so she waved back and motioned over toward her area of the Meet 'n Greet, hoping the girls would get the idea to go and meet her there when she was finished.
"And this last creature," Pippa continued with her presentation, motioning with one finger toward what looked like a large grey cat flecked with darker grey and black, "is a Kneazle. Jump up, Percy, and give the folks a good look." The Kneazle leaped up on the stool and sat there erectly, turning his head from side to side and waving his tail slowly back and forth, as if posing for the audience.
"Kneazles also originated in Britain, though they're now found worldwide. As you can see, they look a lot like cats, except for their large ears, and of course, their tails." Here Percy flicked his lion-like tail again proudly, as if he thought he were a real lion. "Kneazles are smart, independent, and sometimes a bit aggressive, but if one takes a liking to you, you won't find a better pet. They can instinctively tell when a person is up to no good, and have a great sense of direction, which is useful if you need help getting home. Like Crups, you have to get a license to own a Kneazle, since they look different from ordinary cats and have to be kept away from Muggles. Thank you, Percy," Pippa finished, handing Percy a treat before he glided silently off the stool.
"And now, for the big finale--they've all been working on this for weeks, so please give them your attention!" Here Pippa clapped her hands, and a line of Kneazles flanked on either side by a line of Crups all ran up onto the platform-stage. The Kneazles ran in an inner circle, one of them occasional meowing at intervals, while the Crups ran in two circles around them, one going clockwise and the other counter-clockwise. As the Kneazles slowed, then stopped, they took up a formation in the center, some of them standing on the tops of the others and ending with a little Kneazle kitten on top, all of them purring loudly, as the Crups continued to trot around them, yipping and yapping. After a few laps, they all stopped and faced the audience, standing on their hind legs and waving their paws.
"What a fantastic performance, people!" Pippa exclaimed, and it was not clear if by "people" she meant the creatures or the audience. "Let's give everyone a big hand, shall we?" And Pippa began to applaud as the Kneazle pyramid slowly broke apart and the Kneazles lazily joined the Crups at the front of the stage, stretching down on their front legs and waving their tails up in the air.

Colwyn had shifted his attention onto Dusk and Dawn for a few moments. Sometimes he could be like a young child himself, wathcing the owls for hours and hours as if he had never done so before. They were truly wonderful creatures when taken the time to get to know them. Each one had such a personality.
There was a hand in the air accompanied by a voice again. He smiled looking over to see the same young girl who had answered his question asking her own! Yes! "That's a great question! I was going to give a little demonstration about how to do that should you ever need to. Would you like to come up here and give me a hand?"

After taking their bows, all the Crups and Kneazles left the stage in one big crowd, heading as fast as they could toward Pippa's area. They were not nearly as organized as they had been going up to the stage, because they knew that now that their part was done, there came treats!!!
Pippa nodded to the audience one more time before heading over herself to herd her creatures into some kind of order. "Thanks, again, everyone, and please, if you're thinking of adopting a pet, take another look at all the displays and see if you can find a forever friend." Then she returned to her station, and looked to see if either of her two volunteers had come over there to meet her--because there were a lot of treats to hand out in a hurry, and that seemed just the thing they might like to do.

Oh! Her sister was going to be a Healer too! “NO WAY! My brother wants to be a Healer too! He’s one year younger than she is. Noah’s his name. He’s going off to school this year. Took a gap year to travel but brought back plenty of gifts for me.” Maybe their siblings could be friends!!!! Like Minjae and Noah. If Anjya and Noah were friends, then they could have their older siblings drive them for get togethers and more! And they would t be upset about it because they’d be hanging out with their friend too. Brilliant? Brilliant. Lisa was quite chuffed with herself.
