Default Outdoor Seating


Visiting Florean Fortescue's for a tasty treat? In the shop just to meet and greet with friends? Either way, you'll probably be looking for a place to sit down. If the weather's warm enough, or you're just looking for some fresh air, you'll love to sit at one of the many outdoor patio tables the parlour has to offer. Each table is circular in shape, with a number of comfortable wooden seats surrounding it. Depending on the time of year, you just might find a bouquet of fresh flowers sitting in the middle of the table you're seated at.

If the sun is too bright, you'll want to open the umbrella-style top mounted on your table. Otherwise, leave the umbrella closed and pushed down to enjoy the sunny day. At each table, you'll find a menu showcasing all the tasty flavours available at Florean Fortescue's. A napkin dispenser can also be found at every table, just in case you have to clean up any ice cream accidents that do tend to happen.

He could still recall so vividly the ice cream date prior to his starting at Hogwarts when he had JUST received his wand and the whole THING that had come about because of his fwooper core.

Now, at the ripe age of 20 and no longer a vagabond but a somewhat reluctant university student, Derf was making his way towards Florean's with Clara on her leash. She had been particularly fussy to get out and with Chloe taking a double shift at her work he felt horrible about leaving her home alone.

So here they were.

And there Jessa was.

"Jessa!" he called with a wave, just as he had done practically every summer prior. "Sorry. Reckon you were waiting a bit," he apologizes while switching Clara's leash between hands as she scurried around in circles at his feet. "Clara got into some of the supplies so we had to take a bath before coming." Which was why he smelled particularly of doggie shampoo.

She sorta needed to stand so he could give her a hug though, you know?


Jessa was on her feet the moment Derf got close enough, her arms extending easily for a hug. Hugs, when involving the right people, could be lovely. Derf's hugs were among the ones Jessa liked. She'd been getting them for ages. Long before they were ever ruined for her. "I don't mind. The quiet was nice." Especially nice after her morning with the boys. They were lovely, but sometimes they were loud.

...

...Most.

Most times they were loud.

Jessa watched the eager dog run about her master, admittedly more interested in the fluidity of movement and consistency than the actual dog but she was careful not to spare too long a look. It helped, for fine tuning her cats.

"Was it something toxic or inconvenient?" Whatever Clara had gotten into.

Man this place was packed, of course Lyra been here before, but how did people walk around this place was a mystery to her. Thank goodness she had most majority of her school supplies, it was weird shopping for her robes though, especially when at Ilvermorny they already had them at school. All she had to really get was some more books, but she needed a break, seeing how Stella was with Oceanus now she decided to get something sweet, although she couldn't decide on Sugarplums or the ice cream shop, she decided ice cream would be better seeing how it was hot and so was she. Walking into the shop, she ordered a double scoop of mint chocolate chip, her sky blue eyes looking around the place she sighed seeing no spots opened. Well darn guess outside will have to do, much to her dismay.

Picking a spot in the shade, she frowned as her ice cream started melting. Seriously why wasn't there a charm or so to keep it from melting until it was all gone? Ugh.... she hated ice cream soup! Grabbing some napkins she grumbled eating her icecream soup, at least it was still cold and sweet so better then nothing right?

Ice cream. What a fantastic invention! Surely nothing this deviously delicious could have been created by the muggles because it was just pure magic! Hankering for another ice cream cone, because he seemed to be spending most of his time in here of late, he strolled through the front doors of the store and weaved his way through the throng of customers, eventually getting to the end of the queue. As he waited, his mind wandered back to the little room that was his home for the time being and he let out a small, frustrated sigh. WHY did they all have to stay in Diagon Alley? London clearly wasn’t as big or as busy as New York so what was the big deal? Obviously, Cian couldn’t come (mainly because he was a little snitch who would tell on him if he got into trouble) but he was old enough to walk around on his own now! He was in his sixth year! Almost a fully qualified wizard.

When the Ilvermorny transfer finally arrived at the front, he ordered his usual chocolate extravaganza and headed straight for a chair outdoors not even bothering to look inside and what was waiting for him, sitting in the sun looking as though someone had just stolen her favourite toy? “What's gotcha so down, or what? Drop your ice cream or somethin'?” his face full of humour at her clear look of misery. He almost offered to get her an ice cream but seeing her like this was just too much fun. Taking a lick of his own, he pulled up a chair from the table next to theirs and sat next to his fellow Ilvermorny student.

“I hope you’re not going to mope around Hogwarts like this?” He knew full well that she most likely wasn’t going to transfer with him but he couldn’t help but give her a gentle reminder that she could still join him. It wasn’t too late.

THIS WAS A VERY EXCITING DAY. And as a very exciting day, Evan was celebrating it in STYLE and had gotten himself a three scoops of ice cream. He'd decided on Fizzing Whizzbee, Bertie Botts and Strawberry for this go around. Mainly because he was still experimenting on flavors and he wanted to make sure at least one of them was edible. Normally, three would seem like TOO much sugar for him but it was a special day and Maya had gotten to come along and he wanted them both to be able to try as many flavors as they could before he was off to Hogwarts and couldn't eat more with her.

Once they'd paid and passed through the toppings bar (none for him, thank you. TOO many choices), Evan grabbed a large chunk of napkins for them so they could go outside and grab a seat. Thankfully, the tables all hadn't filled up TOO too much yet so he was able to plop down and claim one for the Nam siblings. He glanced over at his sister with a giant grin, "What did you decide to go with again?"

Maya was careful not to drop her ice cream. There were as many flavors as there were at Ben & Jerry's back in America and it didn't help her narrow her choices. Especially when there were so many possibilities for magic ice cream. She followed her brother to the outdoor seating area and took a seat across from him. "I got the pumpkin fizz!" she said happily as she compared the two's ice creams... more specifically, how much more ice cream Evan had chosen as opposed to Maya's one scoop.

"Are you going to finish all of that?" she giggled, holding up her spoon, excited to try her ice cream. "What flavors did you get?" Maya recognized the signature pink hue that would be strawberry ice cream... but the other two scoops made her curious. What kind of magic ice cream had her brother chosen? "Do you think if we eat this, anything strange will happen to us?" Would they be able to speak another language? Would their tongues turn colors? Magic - it was amazing.

So far so good on them making it to the table without either having made a mess with their sugary goodness. He could be kind of clumsy, which was why he had felt it a necessity to grab such a massive stack of napkins to take along to the table with them. He eyed the slightly orange hue of Maya's ONE scoop which made him feel so piggy. "Ooooh, pumpkin fizz sounds good! Is it good?" He watched her so he could see her reaction when she took a bite.

Hearing her question, he glanced down at his bowl and shook his head before pushing it closer towards her as well. "Probably not. But I got a ton figuring you could try these flavors too!" Because he liked to share okay? And he was hoping that meant she would allow him a tiny bite of her pumpkin. "I ended up with strawberry so I know I like something," and also because it was his favorite, "Fizzing whizzbee which I have no idea what it'll taste like andddd a scoop of Bertie Bott's. Which is apparently a surprise until I try it AND it could end up being GROSS." Which, he wasn't actually sure why he did that one except to maybe tryyyy to push himself to be a little adventureous. "Well.... I hope not depending on what those side effects would be." Nothing had happened last time he didn't think...

She cautiously ate a small spoonful of the ice cream, surprised by the... well... the fizzing. "Wow," she said quietly with her eyes wide. "This is really good! It's like soda but as ice cream and pumpkin flavored!" she exclaimed. Which Maya supposed had been in the name so she was slightly embarrassed. She happily took another bite of the ice cream before pushing it towards Evan. "You should try it!"

Magic ice cream was absolutely the best. She looked at the bowl that Evan had longingly. Now that she had tried hers, she wanted to try all the other flavors. When he pushed it closer to her and told her to try the flavors he had chosen, Maya had to resist her urge to dig right in. "A fizzing whizzbee sounds like it could be explosive," she giggled, taking one of the many napkins Evan had grabbed and wiping her spoon clean. Maya didn't want to contaminate the different flavors. "What is a Bertie Bott's?"

If it could be something gross, Maya wondered why Evan chose it. She took a spoonful of the fizzing whizzbees ice cream, deciding she would let her brother try the Bertie Bott's one first just in case it was horrible. When she took a bite of it, she felt her ears popping, her tongue was dancing! "OH!" she said, her eyes widening like saucers. "This explodes in your mouth!!!" she laughed, enjoying the lingering feeling in her mouth. "This is amazing!! How do they make ice cream like this?" She wanted to learn how to... so maybe she could replicate it at home when her brothers had gone off to school. She would be able to share this wonderful experience with Lisa if she learned it.

Well, that expression at least looked like the ice cream was yummy then! A pumpkin-y soda ice cream flavor? He was skeptical about pumpkin soda to begin with but... since a bite was being offered anyways. Evan took a small spoonful, popping it into his mouth, his own eyes widening slightly. "How does that taste exactly like carbonation when it's just a scoop of ice cream!?" It tasted exactly like his favorite seltzer waters. Since Mom didn't usually let him have a ton of sugary drinks -- probably since she knew about the stash of candy under his bed. Heh.

Magic ice cream was certainly something else entirely. He was almost regretting his decision to go for something so muggle and mundane as his favorite strawberry, especially now that he knew the other flavors weren't bad. But at least the strawberry was also on a whole new quality of good! "It really does... Hopefully it's not going to actually explode on us? I'm hoping it's just kind of like pop rocks!" Which were fun to eat too. They didn't hold much flavor, but they were an experience candy. "Well... I'm assuming Bertie Bott's is just the name of whoever came up with the beans. Kind of like how Jellybelly is just the name for us? But I'll have to read into it to know for sure." Which she could bet he would now be doing when he got home so he could be 100% certain in his answer.

Seeing her go for Fizzing Whizzbee, he decided to start them off on the Bertie Bott and just hoped it wasn't vomit like S had mentioned it could be. He'd be fine with something docile. E took a tiiiiiiiny spoonful, popping it into his mouth and nearly sighing in relief when he tasted cinnamon. Except... this cinnamon was STRONG. And actually kind of burned! "Sp-Spicy!" He quickly took a larger spoonful of his strawberry and popped it into his mouth hoping that would cool it. "So... Whizzbe is a win? And they probably make this by some type of charm... I'll ask my Charms Professor when I go to Hogwarts so I can come back and maybe we can make our own!" With different fun reactions!!

Lukas was in a good mood. It was a beautiful early afternoon day to be in Diagon Alley. The weather was warm, the sun was shining and best of all, he was given enough spending coins to get everything on his list for next term and a bit extra. The bit extra was meant for a new book or maybe something to eat or drink should he get hungry. But the twelve year old had plans of his own on what to do with it. All he had to do was watch how much he spent and not buy anything that wasn't on the list.

Besides ice cream. Ice cream didn't count. It was a given. Everybody knew that when he was in DA a trip to Florean's was going to happen. Which is exactly where he ended up after only going to one shop. What? A boy needed his sugar fix.

After waiting in line for what seemed like forever, Lukas finally made his way back outside to the seating area that was just as crowded as the inside of the place. Bright blue-gray eyes scanned the area finding an empty table off to the side. Dropping his backpack onto an empty chair he sat down with his cup of ice cream that he may of may not actually finish.

Mmmm butterbeer, orange marmalade and apple crumble topped with little sparkling crystals that were crushed up pieces of ice mice. Yum!

Ingrid wasn’t in Diagon Alley often. Usually found up north, the wee Scottish lass was usually found talking to customers behind the counter of their shop or with her nose pressed up to the book that she was reading so when she was down in London, walking the streets of Diagon Alley and looking through the windows at all of the amazing things that the wizarding world had to offer, including that of a certain ice cream shop.

She didn’t need Ice cream. And yet, she did [I]need[I/] Ice cream. Really, the logic inside the head of Ingrid Starling Luck would have made sense to very few people and yet, she didn’t mind. Nor did she mind that she was now holding a large strawberry ice cream that she’d just purchased inside of Florean Fortescue’s just moments ago. All she was focused on was the pale pink ice cream that was currently sitting inches from her face in a waffle cone. Everything was going swimmingly…

…until she tripped over the leg of a chair that some boy (Lukas) had just sat in and stumbled, falling onto her ice cream. “Ouch!” she grunted under her breath as she turned onto her side, her eyes falling onto the floral t-shirt she was wearing. “Oh no...Dad’s going to kill me!”, she grumbled as ice cream dripped from her t-shirt onto her hands and the floor.

Orion didn’t usually indulge in ice cream, nor did he come to Diagon, nor did much care for crowds.. but lately.. he felt like he needed them. Despite his eternal hunt for solitude, it had been rather.. lonely lately.

At least he had his studies to keep him busy, and his work, but.. he found himself missing certain people. Probably much more than he should. In fact he found his heart ached most of the time.

But such was the life of a dungeon creature.

He sighed softly as he settled down at a table and put the Umbrella up to keep the sun off of him and his black hoodie. He was back to his usual black.. the things he had bought from Candi took up space in his closet now,. And he would look at them with a sad glance from his deep brown eyes.. and close the door.

He pulled the hood over his head and stirred his chocolate frog ice cream as he looked around.. content to people watch as he ate his feelings.

But such was the life of a dungeon creature.

He sighed softly as he settled down at a table and put the Umbrella up to keep the sun off of him and his black hoodie. He was back to his usual black.. the things he had bought from Candi took up space in his closet now,. And he would look at them with a sad glance from his deep brown eyes.. and close the door.

He pulled the hood over his head and stirred his chocolate frog ice cream as he looked around.. content to people watch as he ate his feelings.
Carsyn wasn't one to indulge in too many sweets, in particular during her last season playing for the under 17, but they had just had a successful match and it felt deserved. After getting a scoop of chocolate cauldron flavored with some sugar quill toppings, the Gryffindor gazed around the shop in search of a familiar face before her eyes found a familiar mop of dark hair outside.

Heading outside, she walked over to his table.

"Waiting for anyone?" She asked curiously, figuring it was probably the right thing to do. Last thing she would have wanted was to intrude on a date he might have had with someone. Although then again, if he did have a date, she hoped he would have had the decency to not order his ice cream before his date.

The bit extra was meant for a new book or maybe something to eat or drink should he get hungry. But the twelve year old had plans of his own on what to do with it. All he had to do was watch how much he spent and not buy anything that wasn't on the list.

Besides ice cream. Ice cream didn't count. It was a given. Everybody knew that when he was in DA a trip to Florean's was going to happen. Which is exactly where he ended up after only going to one shop. What? A boy needed his sugar fix.

After waiting in line for what seemed like forever, Lukas finally made his way back outside to the seating area that was just as crowded as the inside of the place. Bright blue-gray eyes scanned the area finding an empty table off to the side. Dropping his backpack onto an empty chair he sat down with his cup of ice cream that he may of may not actually finish.

Mmmm butterbeer, orange marmalade and apple crumble topped with little sparkling crystals that were crushed up pieces of ice mice. Yum!

She didn’t need Ice cream. And yet, she did [I]need[I/] Ice cream. Really, the logic inside the head of Ingrid Starling Luck would have made sense to very few people and yet, she didn’t mind. Nor did she mind that she was now holding a large strawberry ice cream that she’d just purchased inside of Florean Fortescue’s just moments ago. All she was focused on was the pale pink ice cream that was currently sitting inches from her face in a waffle cone. Everything was going swimmingly…

…until she tripped over the leg of a chair that some boy (Lukas) had just sat in and stumbled, falling onto her ice cream. “Ouch!” she grunted under her breath as she turned onto her side, her eyes falling onto the floral t-shirt she was wearing. “Oh no...Dad’s going to kill me!”, she grumbled as ice cream dripped from her t-shirt onto her hands and the floor.
Predictably, Adam had gone his own way shortly after arriving at Diagon Alley. He had too much to do and too many things to buy and his family was just going to slow him down! It was better for everyone if they just let him do things at his own fast pace.

Truthfully he had...already gotten ice cream today. Before he went to get his wand. However, he would be lying if he said he wasn't tempted to get ANOTHER scoop because....well, he was an 11 year old in Diagon Alley with minimal supervision. Why NOT get another scoop was the question!

As he walked by the ice cream parlour, his thoughts immediately turned when he heard a very familiar voice nearby. Sure enough, in the outdoor seating he stopped his sister - literally COVERED in ice cream. Grinning, he hopped over the fence into the seating area and walked up to her.

"Hey Ingrid, eat ice cream much?" he teased, unable to help himself. Ok, now that he had gotten that out of the way, he should probably like...actually help her. So he grabbed a whole handful of napkins from the nearby table where the boy was sitting (Koylander) not at all caring that he might be taking them from him.

Kizzy had underestimated how exhausting the day would be. Upon arrival at Diagon Alley, her energy felt endless. Now it felt... at its end. Fortunately there was an easy fix-all solution and it happened to be ice cream. AND she was of age (for Hogwarts and nothing else) now, which meant her requests would be taken more seriously. (This was likely far from the truth, but she was granted permission for ice cream nevertheless).

With her dessert already in tow (a double scoop of some fruity sorbet with lots of coconut flakes to top it off), Kinsay made her way outside of the shop to find a nice, unoccupied table for herself. It was very busy today, but despite this she managed to find the BEST table Florean Fortescue's had to offer. It was actually the perfect spot to enjoy her ice cream, except for the fact that it was positioned directly under the sun. This made the 11 year-old frown. It did have an umbrella though and Kinsay was smart enough to know how to open it up. So she skipped over with delight after deciding she could handle the task on her own.

Setting her ice cream cup down, she climbed up, onto the round table and lifted the ends of the umbrella to take a look underneath. Hm. Maybe she didn't know how to open it up by herself after all. She did know she could figure it out though. Maybe.

Orion’s eyebrows went up as he heard a voice and he looked up to see Carsyn standing there. Apparently his black hoodie wasn’t enough to blend in.. but then again, it was the dead middle of summer and he was in a sweatshirt with the hood pulled up.. so..

About as inconspicuous as Batman going out the window in that one old movie he saw.

He scoffed a little at her question. “Not a soul.” he shook his head.. who did a dungeon creature get to wait for? He was all alone. Ink was off on the states, he didn’t talk to JJ anymore and Candi.. well that book was closed.

He would have scoffed more at her thoughts.. dungeon creatures did not date.

“Care to join me ” He asked as he motioned to the seat across from him.

Cooper Branxton was having the time of his life this summer. There was some delicious irony in how it was now of all terms that he and dad had gotten mum to come around and allow him to stop homeschooling so he could finally attend Hogwarts like his parents both had. He pretended that the countless mornings he had staged foaming at the mouth (too much mint toothpaste helped with the look) because he was so rabid from the isolation that was homeschooling. Only Cooper was anything but isolated. He just liked to play that card a lot whenever the debate of 'will he, won't he?' came up with Hogwarts. Just one of the many index cards in his stack that he pulled out when such debates over the dinner table occurred.

Fresh from Malkins and his new school robes in the bag in his hand, the budding third year whistled to himself as he made his way down the street...until he saw someone standing on one of the tables outside of Florean Fortescue's. It took him approximately three seconds to place the all-too-familiar head of blonde hair before he was pulling out his latest dumpster find turned restoration project turn friend: his Poloroid SX-70 camera.

After making sure everything was locked and loaded, he lifted the view finder to his eye and waited for just the right moment to snap a shot of Kiz looking both absolutely adorable in her curiosity as well as absolutely ridiculous in her lack of manners.

KUCHEEEEEEEEEEEER.

That was the thing with these old camera, especially those repaired by the hands of a teenager. They made REALLY loud noises.

And there the cause was. Literally on the ground at his feet. A girl about his age, maybe a bit younger, ice cream dripping down the front of her shirt.

"You okay?" The question was already out of his mouth before he even moved. Dropping his spoon down into the bowl of ice cream, he pushed his chair back from the table carefully. The motions were done quickly and smoothly without any thought. "Don't worry about it, we'll get you cleaned up." We as in her and him. He would help since she did fall because of him. Well not him... but his chair. Lukas offered her a light grin and held out his hand to help her to her feet.

Huh? Within the span of him being alone, the girl falling over his chair and him offering her hand up there was someone else joining them. Someone who seemed to know the girl by name. Ingrid. Did he care that the boy took the napkins from his table? Nope. That's what they were there for, to clean up spills.

It wasn’t often that she didn’t want to see her twin. Sure, he was super annoying and they bickered a lot but she loved him even if he did never let her forget that he was the older one. Right now though, covered in ice cream and sitting on the cold hard ground, it was safe to assume that she did not want his big head around.

“Shut up Adam. Haven’t you had ice cream already today?”, something she intended to pass onto their father is he didn’t zip his big, stupid mouth! With a small sigh, Ingrid accepted the napkins from her brother with a small smile and a reluctant “Thank you” . The thank you was to both her brother and the boy who who’s chair leg she had tripped over. “I’m okay, I think” she continued, flicking stray bits of cone and ice cream from her shirt as she continued to wipe her t-shirt. “My ice cream looks like someone hit a bludger at it though” a small laugh escaping her lips, eventually turning in to a sigh. She did have a small amount of gold left but that was going to be for…something else.

“Dad’s going to kill me Ad” her eyes now on her long-haired brother, hands full of ice cream filled napkins. It wasn’t often that the youngest of the Luck clan dressed in clothes that made her look remotely girls but today had been one of those days, if not reluctantly. She was so much more at home in dirty overalls that she could smuggle animal treats in to feed all of the creatures in the store when no once way looking but today had seemed like an important day.

Turning to the boy who she’d practically fallen over, she smiled before apologising, “Sorry. Your chair leg... It was an accident. I’m Ingrid. This is Adam, my brother.” . Honestly, she wasn’t even sure how it had happened. The chair leg had literally come out of nowhere! Had she even tripped over the leg or had someone tripped her? No, it must have been the chair leg.

Still not really paying attention to the other boy nearby, Adam wrinkled his freckled nose and shook his head. As far as he was concerned he had NOT eaten any ice cream today. Nope. "I think you're mistaken," he said matter of factly, hoping his confidence in his answer would help her conveniently forget that he'd already had some.

"He's not gonna kill you. Accidents happen!" he assured her, giving her a little smile of encouragement since she was obviously really upset about this. Dad was a wizard! He'd get the stains out with the simple wave of a wand.

Oh. Right. There was another person here. He turned to the boy and grinned. "Hi!" he said simply. Wait, what had happened? She'd tripped over his chair? Darn, he'd missed it! He felt bad she had fallen of course, and had ruined her clothes and dropped her ice cream - but it was probably hilarious to watch.

Yeah I broke that mirror, so what? ll NOT backward ll Official Gryfferin ll Lemon's favourite

Was it just her or did today seem reeeeeally long?? It must've been hours since her and her mummy had arrived in Diagon Alley and she had BAGS OF STUFF to show for it. It was bad enough she would have to miss gymnastics. If they stayed too much longer, ballet would be out of the question. The only thing that kept the little girl from huffing her discontent was the fact they were getting ice-cream now , then her mummy promised they would head home.

Emmerson took the bags out to the seating area while her mother stayed in line. It sure was crowded today, it was a wonder there were any seats left.

It took some looking, but she managed to find a table facing the equally busy streets. Without a second's hesitation, Emm hurried over, cutting off a woman and her child as they were about to sit. When told they'd been about to take the seat, Emmerson did little more than turn in the other direction and run a hand through her tangled hair, as if no one had spoken at all.

When the younger child tried screaming, the 11 year old made a point of fixing him with a rotten look and telling him things her mummy said were okay to say if people got on your nerves. The woman didn't like it, but she took her child and went to sit elsewhere.

Hpmh. Some people.

Only Cooper was anything but isolated. He just liked to play that card a lot whenever the debate of 'will he, won't he?' came up with Hogwarts. Just one of the many index cards in his stack that he pulled out when such debates over the dinner table occurred.

Fresh from Malkins and his new school robes in the bag in his hand, the budding third year whistled to himself as he made his way down the street...until he saw someone standing on one of the tables outside of Florean Fortescue's. It took him approximately three seconds to place the all-too-familiar head of blonde hair before he was pulling out his latest dumpster find turned restoration project turn friend: his Poloroid SX-70 camera.

After making sure everything was locked and loaded, he lifted the view finder to his eye and waited for just the right moment to snap a shot of Kiz looking both absolutely adorable in her curiosity as well as absolutely ridiculous in her lack of manners.

KUCHEEEEEEEEEEEER.

That was the thing with these old camera, especially those repaired by the hands of a teenager. They made REALLY loud noises.
Manners were not something Kinsay was concerned about at the current moment. In fact, manners were not something she frequently thought about at all. The only times she called them to mind were when daddy would remind her, but even then she did not usually climb onto tables whilst wearing shoes. She likely wouldn't make a habit of this either, but she was a little girl hyper-focused on a task. In other words, until she could find a way to open the umbrella, Kinsay James could not be stopped.

The eleven year old frowned as she lifted the corner of the umbrella even higher and stuck her head under. Hm. This would be harder than she thought. There was only one feasible option here and it was to TUG. Giving the umbrella a pointed look, she grabbed a fistful of the fabric and began tugging with all of her might. Biting on her tongue and leaning back to add more--CLICK! There was a click! She HEARD it!

Only the delight that had registered on her features did not last any longer than two seconds because that's all it took for her to realize that the click had not come from the umbrella afterall, but was instead the sound of an old-school camera. One that was being operated by none other than cousin "COOPER!!"

Yup. She was squealing.

In any other circumstance she would have run to throw her arms around him in a kizzy-cuddle, but as it was she was still stood on the table. The tiny blonde did throw her hands into the air though, as a consolation. Maybe he knew how to fix this umbrella. He could fix old cameras into new, so obviously he had experience with making complicated things work like they were supposed to.

“Shut up Adam. Haven’t you had ice cream already today?”, something she intended to pass onto their father is he didn’t zip his big, stupid mouth! With a small sigh, Ingrid accepted the napkins from her brother with a small smile and a reluctant “Thank you” . The thank you was to both her brother and the boy who who’s chair leg she had tripped over. “I’m okay, I think” she continued, flicking stray bits of cone and ice cream from her shirt as she continued to wipe her t-shirt. “My ice cream looks like someone hit a bludger at it though” a small laugh escaping her lips, eventually turning in to a sigh. She did have a small amount of gold left but that was going to be for…something else.

“Dad’s going to kill me Ad” her eyes now on her long-haired brother, hands full of ice cream filled napkins. It wasn’t often that the youngest of the Luck clan dressed in clothes that made her look remotely girls but today had been one of those days, if not reluctantly. She was so much more at home in dirty overalls that she could smuggle animal treats in to feed all of the creatures in the store when no once way looking but today had seemed like an important day.

Turning to the boy who she’d practically fallen over, she smiled before apologising, “Sorry. Your chair leg... It was an accident. I’m Ingrid. This is Adam, my brother.” . Honestly, she wasn’t even sure how it had happened. The chair leg had literally come out of nowhere! Had she even tripped over the leg or had someone tripped her? No, it must have been the chair leg.

"I think you're mistaken," he said matter of factly, hoping his confidence in his answer would help her conveniently forget that he'd already had some.

"He's not gonna kill you. Accidents happen!" he assured her, giving her a little smile of encouragement since she was obviously really upset about this. Dad was a wizard! He'd get the stains out with the simple wave of a wand.

Oh. Right. There was another person here. He turned to the boy and grinned. "Hi!" he said simply. Wait, what had happened? She'd tripped over his chair? Darn, he'd missed it! He felt bad she had fallen of course, and had ruined her clothes and dropped her ice cream - but it was probably hilarious to watch.
Lukas looked back and forth between the two of them as they bickered over ice cream. It almost made him smile as he thought about how he and his twin sister disagreed sometimes. And now he was missing her. He should've had her come along with him instead of letting her stay home and read of whatever it was she was doing.

Hmm? Oh, she was talking to him! With a slight shake of his head as if shaking the memory away, he gave her a light smile. "You're welcome." Not that he had actually done anything more than help her up. "You can sit down... if you want?" It was only him at the table. As for her ice cream, "At least it's still semi edible?" Worse things could've happened. It could've ended up all over the pavement.

There was a slight tilt of his head as SHE apologized to HIM. "It's not your fault. It's the chairs." Lukas grinned at her a little in hopes of maybe making her smile so she didn't feel so bad. "Nice to uh.. meet you both." Even if it's only due to her falling over his chair. "I'm Lukas."

"How does that taste exactly like carbonation when it's just a scoop of ice cream!?" It tasted exactly like his favorite seltzer waters. Since Mom didn't usually let him have a ton of sugary drinks -- probably since she knew about the stash of candy under his bed. Heh.

Magic ice cream was certainly something else entirely. He was almost regretting his decision to go for something so muggle and mundane as his favorite strawberry, especially now that he knew the other flavors weren't bad. But at least the strawberry was also on a whole new quality of good! "It really does... Hopefully it's not going to actually explode on us? I'm hoping it's just kind of like pop rocks!" Which were fun to eat too. They didn't hold much flavor, but they were an experience candy. "Well... I'm assuming Bertie Bott's is just the name of whoever came up with the beans. Kind of like how Jellybelly is just the name for us? But I'll have to read into it to know for sure." Which she could bet he would now be doing when he got home so he could be 100% certain in his answer.

Seeing her go for Fizzing Whizzbee, he decided to start them off on the Bertie Bott and just hoped it wasn't vomit like S had mentioned it could be. He'd be fine with something docile. E took a tiiiiiiiny spoonful, popping it into his mouth and nearly sighing in relief when he tasted cinnamon. Except... this cinnamon was STRONG. And actually kind of burned! "Sp-Spicy!" He quickly took a larger spoonful of his strawberry and popped it into his mouth hoping that would cool it. "So... Whizzbe is a win? And they probably make this by some type of charm... I'll ask my Charms Professor when I go to Hogwarts so I can come back and maybe we can make our own!" With different fun reactions!!
Maya had never really tried many pumpkin flavored anything but this was certainly changing her mind. She wondered if they could bring some back to Lisa... the orange hue of the ice cream was sure to appeal to her younger sister. Seeing Evan's face when he ate the ice cream made Maya fill up with pride. She felt like she had chosen a good ice cream flavor despite never having it before. "It's so cool! It's almost like a coke float." Which she enjoyed from time to time but surely this ice cream wasn't as bad for one as mixing a sugar filled soda... with sugar filled ice cream? "I wish this wouldn't melt... then we could bring it home..." What a shame, magic should be able to keep ice cream from melting.

She happily ate some more of her ice cream, wiggling in her seat to some music in her head. This was delightful indeed. Maya wasn't a big fan of Jellybelly jellybeans. A lot of the flavors were quite gross. She wondered what flavors magic jellybeans would have and if they planted them would a magic jellybean stalk grow?. She watched her brother go for the 'Bertie Bott' ice cream carefully, ready to offer him a spoonful of her own ice cream if it were truly disgusting to get rid of the taste...

but she found herself laughing hard and out loud at his reaction. "Evan!!!" Though she felt concern for her brother, the sight was hilarious, especially when he quickly ate some strawberry ice cream. Could ice cream be spicy? Did that mean it was chili pepper flavored? "Whizzbee is a definite win. It's almost like pumpkin fizz but without the pumpkin!" The fizzing would be the selling point of the ice cream. She giggled again, thinking of his reaction to the Bertie Bott's flavored ice cream.

"Was the mystery flavor jalapenos?" she asked. She was curious of course... and tempted to try it but was a bit hesitant. What if her tongue caught fire? "I think your ice cream would make an interesting ice cream cake at a party..."

He normally wasn't big on Pumpkin by itself but... it seemed like magical folk were very into it considering they drank pumpkin JUICE on the regular. So maybe it was time to start trying more pumpkin-y things and DECIDE to like it. And if more of it tasted like Maya's ice cream, it might not be too difficult of an adjustment. "It is exactly like a soda float!!" Which meant even if they couldn't take this back to Lisa, maybe they could make something similar? A pumpkin flavored ice cream in some cream soda might taste a little bit similar.... He filed that idea away to try it later and see if they could share some with Lisa that way. "Maybe we can bring Leese next time? And Noah! Make it a whole family affair!" For ice cream!!

Ughhhh. His mouth still felt weird. Why had he decided to go for the Bertie Botts against his better judgement?? He should have tried something different. Like maybe the blood pop flavor! Although... the name of that was concerning to him, almost as concerning as chocolate frog had initially.

He pretended to frown at Maya and her laughter, but honestly he was not perturbed. He liked when his siblings laughed, even if it was at his expense. Besides, he supposed he really did look funny. "The flavor is STRONG." Too strong! But maybe that was part of the draw of the weird candies? "I think next time I will just stick with the Whizzbee or something chocolate..." Or maybe just something where he was certain of what the flavor SHOULD be.

"It was Cinnamon. But really strong in the flavor. It felt like that Cinnamon challenge thing!" Not that he would have actually ever TRIED that. "Do you want to try it?" He pushed the bowl closer towards her again. "Wait, which one?? The mystery flavor?" Wouldn't THAT be a fun birthday surprise...

The only thing that kept the little girl from huffing her discontent was the fact they were getting ice-cream now , then her mummy promised they would head home.

Emmerson took the bags out to the seating area while her mother stayed in line. It sure was crowded today, it was a wonder there were any seats left.

It took some looking, but she managed to find a table facing the equally busy streets. Without a second's hesitation, Emm hurried over, cutting off a woman and her child as they were about to sit. When told they'd been about to take the seat, Emmerson did little more than turn in the other direction and run a hand through her tangled hair, as if no one had spoken at all.

When the younger child tried screaming, the 11 year old made a point of fixing him with a rotten look and telling him things her mummy said were okay to say if people got on your nerves. The woman didn't like it, but she took her child and went to sit elsewhere.

Hpmh. Some people.
The sun was hitting peak sweaty-saturation in the sky, and Phoebe was already tired of peeling her sundress off of the small of her back. She was disgusting, and she needed the tallest glass of lemonade in the world. Or maybe six scoops of ice cream in a waffle cone, even if that sounded sticky.

She settled on ONE scoop with sprinkles, in a cup to preserve her hands, and emerged back into the sun with her prize. Her eyes took ages to adjust to the brightness, and when she could see again, she found herself watch Emm bully an adult and child into giving up their table. That's the spirit, kiddo.

"Hi." Phoebe settled herself across from Emm and toasted the younger girl with her cup of ice cream. "You've been shopping!"
