Default QQS Shelves & Displays


Image Credit: Charely Potter

The shelves and displays are the first thing you notice as you enter in the Quality Quidditch Supplies shop. The side walls of the shop are neatly stacked with brooms and posters galore. You will find the latest brooms in stock as well as the typical family broom available. Between the side walls there are various shelves that are filled with various quidditch supplies and goods. This includes but is not limited to robes neatly arrayed on stacks, keeper gloves and on the two most outer-middle shelves, broom service kits. Lastly the back wall displays books and other reading materials, all to do with Quidditch of course.

All items are displayed with a price tagged on them. Be sure to handle with care, if you break something you must pay for it. When you are done here, go on ahead to the counter to pay for your new goods. Otherwise if you need any assistance at all please feel free to ask the shopkeeper, Brad. He will be more than glad to help you.

Ooc: Please do not RP for the shopkeeper. The Diagon Alley Rules apply at all times. If you have any questions, you can ask them in the Diagon Alley Questions thread.

Summer time was among them, wasn't it? Brad had just about cleaned the shop in time for the doors to open allowing the bustle of students to enter with their parents. He had resigned to counter duty, allowing him to keep an eye throughout the whole shop. Watching did get tiresome at times, however, so he kept a magazine at hand when things got slow.

Brad surveyed the two girls and later two boys that had entered, they seemed to be doing their own thing, reuniting and all. So his eyes were about to focus on the other aisles when he heard a crash.

SPOILER!!: Party Crashers

Solstice mewed in her arms, sounding more confused than anything else. "It's okay. I've got hi..."

CRASH! The girl that had been chasing after the pygmy puff had instead attempted to slide for it, and now half of the aisle was coming down around, and on top of, them. Solstice, in his panic, twisted in Dizzy's arms, dug his claws and sprang over her shoulder just the entire stock of nimbuses and a good many of the firebolts knocked her to the ground, burying her.

Then it was over. "I'm okay! I think. But, er...Solstice got loose."

Of course, she'd had to then shield the little creature from all the falling brooms and stuff, but at least the little fluff ball was okay. The Gryffindor had probably added some ugly bruises to her back 'cause she'd tried to take as much of the stuff as possible but bruises were pretty much normal for her. No big deal.

Except...except she had completely forgotten about the younger girls in her moment of broom-crashing panic. See, this was why she wasn't a prefect. Emmeline jumped to her feet, moved the squirming pygmy puff to her left hand, and held out her right hand to the girl who was talking to help her up.

"Oh no, oh Merlin, I'm so sorry!" she told both girls as pink traveled up her cheeks. She should've paid more attention. "I..Are you sure you're okay?" It was a few more seconds before the girl's words actually penetrated Emmeline's still half-distracted mind; she was eyeing Luna out of the corner of her eyes and watching for wiggles.

"Solstice? Oh no, your kitten?"Emmeline gasped. "Umm, okay, we'll find him. Or her? What color is he?" These last questions came out in a rush, because now the Gryffindor felt even worse for all the brooms crashing. She wouldn't forgive herself if she'd managed to hurt the cat (or either of the girls, really, but they looked okay). Her blue eyes were already darting all over the floor again as she spoke, which didn't help much 'cause it was now covered in brooms. But Emmeline knew from living with a cat herself that the kitten had probably raced away from the noise if he could. So she was trying to scan the rest of the shop from where she stood, but she had a feeling they'd need to go look properly. There were just too many people and WAY too much stuff to find a kitten if he was hiding in here without a real search.

Setting his magazine aside, he walked right over to the scene of all brooms knocking over. Oh dear, she was practically being buried. "Wotcher there." Brad didn't waste time and flicking his wand at the brooms to rearrange themselves to their stands as if nothing happened. "Everything alright?" Last thing he would've liked to hear was if they got themselves hurt. He was curious though on what made the brooms fall over.

"He's all black," Dizzy answered looking around. Why did the shop have to be so dark? She turned back to the other girls. "Are you alright, Nettie? What about you, uh...." She stilled didn't know the crashers name. "Are you alright?"

Dizzy jumped and froze at the voice that approached them from behind. Clearly an adult.
Probably the owner. Oh no... She spun and launched into a panicked recount of everything for a minute, before she realized shd was speaking in her native Dutch. "Er...." She took a deep brearh and started again. "Sorry! We were just trying to decide on what broom to get, then a pygmy puff got loose and trying to catch knocked over so brooms and it wasn't our fault." She paused for air and watched the brooms reshelve themselves. "I lost my kitten..."

The floors were clear again, but she still couldn't spot a hair of him. "Solstice!" Not that Dizzy was very hopeful about this tactic. She'd only had him an hour so far, and he was still learning his name. The only others in the store she could see were two boys. "Have you seen a black kitten?"

Nettie grinned. "Yes, it's short for Trinetta. It's French," she explained. She had never heard of Dizzy's full name before, but then again, she wasn't Dutch. She would bet good money that Dizzy had never heard of the name Trinetta either.

"Yeah it is! Well, actually, not until September. But since I'm going to be at school AND I'm turning thirteen, my parents let me pick out my present early!" she explained. It would be silly to tryout without her new broom if she had to wait to her actual birthday. "I'm going in to my second year. I'm a Ravenclaw," she added. She wondered if the girl had done any research on the houses. She hadn't done a TON of reading over them before going to school and had elected to wait until she got there and got sorted to really dive into what each house meant. Now that she had spent a year in her new house, she was 100% certain her sorting had been SPOT. ON.

What had drawn her to the Nimbus. She shrugged. "Well, it's right in the middle in terms of price, I don't think I need to spend a TON of money but now I'm wondering if I should just go for it and get a Thunderbolt or Bluebottle..." she began, until she was suddenly cut off as chaos erupted. Things started falling off shelves, hitting Nettie's short little frame RIGHT in the head as she tried to shield herself with a little yelp. She was more concerned about shielding herself from the brooms, though. Thankfully they just hit her arms, but that could have been a disaster if she hadn't protected her head.

An older girl was on the floor, trying to catch...something, she assumed. Sure enough, Nettie's eyes looked down and saw the little pygmy puff in her hands. Ahhhh. Ok. Things started to make sense now, especially since there was a cat around...

Or, it HAD been around. And now wondered off. Oh no!

"It's ok, I'm sure we'll find him! He can't go very far,"
she added. He WAS just a tiny kitten after all. He was probably behind a display or under a shelving unit or something...

Their reason to be there that day was what got her super excited as well, and wanting to make sure whatever product they bought was the best of the best! "Aw, thank you, love." The redhead smiled and carried their little one into the shop as he flailed his arms. "I kno', it's lush, innit, love??" Muirgen chuckled and turned to look at Kieran when he mentioned the brooms. "Definitely! I think that's our main goal for today, right?" She said, smiling happily before looking around. "Over by there!" She added, pointing in the right direction just for the sake of it, as they were more than familiar with the shop.

"I wonder if they 'ave different makes for toy brooms as they do for real ones." Muirgen said, also wondering if she should feel silly because she didn't know much about the subject. But then again, did one even do proper research into toy brooms?? "Real ones as in, you kno'... real ones." She laughed. Well, Kieran knew what he was on about!
Kieran couldn't help the chuckle that escaped his lips as he caught the eye of their son and noticed his flailing limbs. Of course he was excited. Who wouldn't be? "Best store in all of Diagon Alley, little one." And they'd get only the best for their budding Quidditch star.

He turned his eyes towards where Muirgen was pointing and he nodded before leading them that way. "Right, of course... though I'm sure we can find a few other things to purchase as well once we're done with the brooms." Of course they came with something specific in mind, but who could really blame him if he wanted to get a few extra goodies?

Slowing his gait as they approached the professional brooms, he paused to look around for the junior and toy brooms. "Hmm, that's a good question. It's been a while since I've been in the market for a toy broom," he joked with a laugh, meaning himself many, many years ago. "Ah, but here's a few," he added as he finally located the smaller brooms down at the end. "Maybe we can try one out."

Loose animals though, he had some experience given his brother's tendency to let rabbits run loose around his place. Thing was to remain calm... even though his face looked like it was lacking patience at the moment. Hopefully this didn't scare the kiddies.

"Alright.. what is the kitten's-" Oh, there it was. "Solstice. Do you have their favorite treats with you? We can lure it out that way wherever it may be hiding." Beats the other solution on waiting for it to mark it's territory.

"You played well in your last game" he commented idly, turning the bottle in his hand.
Derf's calloused hands were still pulling at the stand when the bloke he had passed earlier was speaking to him, eliciting a bit of a perplexed grunt as his head swiveled around to look at him properly - though only briefly. "Huh?" he blinking, taking a moment to register things as his attention was obviously on the frightened kitten behind the magazine stand and how best to lure it out without spooking it further. "Oh, thanks." His more, for lack of a better word, ruthless form of beating was still new to him...but it was a far better strategy than hitting the bludger into empty space. "....you did mean quidditch, yeah?"

Had to check. He was, well, fairly certain considering the shop and how...well...there was a poster WITH his own face on it on the wall and stuff. Something he was not used to at all.

Now...back to this poor cat...

"....you a player too or a fan?" he asked as he knelt down and got eye level with the cowering cat and offers his hand on the floor, palm up, and meow'd softly. He ought to ask a kneazle to teach him some important terms so he wasn't just mimicking. Or...maybe he ought to see about brewing a certain brew again. It had helped immensely with his bowtruckle, after all.

Thankfully, whatever the Hufflepuff was saying, was enough for the cat and it slowly dragged itself across the floor to his hand. Once he could manage, he grabbed it gently by the scruff of the kneck - like a mama cat only he used his hand and not his mouth, of course - and scooped it up into his arms.

One of the last stops of the day. Quality Quidditch Supplies. There was noway she could pass up going inside. She never could.

The still small for her age teen pushed up the door to the shop and stepped inside. Right away her feet moved towards the brooms. The newest models. The ones she couldn't even buy yet on her own. Blue eyes fixed on the Bluebottle C. That was the one she was saving up for. Truthfully there was a few things she was saving her money for lately but this broom was top on her list... maybe. It was right up there with a very special doll she had laid eyes on a few weeks back. Normally she would as for them for her birthday or Christmas but one of those had just passed and the other was much to far away.

If she had to be honest, working for the money herself was rather satisfying. Standing here though, looking at that broom reminded her of how much harder she needed to practice still if she wanted a spot on the Quidditch team again.

Two of Dizzy's older sisters were French, and she actually knew quite a few French names, but Trinetta was a new one for her. Maybe it wasn't French? Though, it sort of sounded like it could be French. "That's a pretty name. What does it mean? Alfdis means elf goddess in Icelandic. But not like house elves! No. The elves in Norse mythology."

Ravenclaw? Probably one of the houses at Hogwarts? Dizzy knew Hogwarts had houses, unlike Beauxbatons, but hadn't really tried to look them up or anything. Runa probably had, but Dizzy thought it'd be more of an adventure to discover the houses once there. "I'm second year too. Maybe we'll be in the same house? Do you play Quidditch? I am thinking of maybe trying out, but never really played before."

Before Dizzy could respond to Nettie about whether it was just the price or anything else that drew her first to the Nimbus... everything happened.

Nettie's words of comfort had the opposite effect, sparking a question that Dizzy couldn't answer. "No one came in or left after, have they?" Visions of Solstice running through the crowds of shoppers on the street, terrified filled her.

Dizzy looked up at the shopkeeper, tears starting to well in her eyes a little, and shook her head. "I just got him from Magical Menagerie an hour ago. I don't even know what treats he likes yet." She...she...she had to find him. HAD TO! They might have only known each other an hour, but she'd bonded with him fully in that hour!

Frantic now, Dizzy took off down the aisles, searching under the shelves and displays. "Solstice! Here kitty! Solstice! Where are you?" Please be okay, please be okay, pleasepleasepleasebeokay! "Solst..." Dizzy came around one aisle and spotted the two boys next to the magazines, something curiously bundled in one of the boys arms like he was holding a...

"SOLSTICE! You found him! Oh thank you, thank you, thank you!" She gave the boy a hug, not caring they hadn't actually met. He saved her kitten. He was a hero. Heroes got hugs. Period.

Blue eyes fixed on the Bluebottle C. That was the one she was saving up for. Truthfully there was a few things she was saving her money for lately but this broom was top on her list... maybe. It was right up there with a very special doll she had laid eyes on a few weeks back. Normally she would as for them for her birthday or Christmas but one of those had just passed and the other was much to far away.

If she had to be honest, working for the money herself was rather satisfying. Standing here though, looking at that broom reminded her of how much harder she needed to practice still if she wanted a spot on the Quidditch team again.
Walking in, his head down, Ewan couldn't help but feel out of place here. Despite his hulking figure, he loved playing Quidditch but there was no way he could afford a broom now. No. He was dreaming. Pulling his hood a little lower over his head, he walked a little closer to one of the broom displays, longing etched across face. As he stood face the broom, he couldn't help but notice the height difference between himself and the girl next to him.

Taking his eyes off the broom for a second, he looked down at her. She was atleast a head shorter than him with fiery red hair. Wait..no wonder she has feiry hair...It's the girl on fire. Taking a small step away now, he started to retreat slowly. She wouldn't recognise him, would she? I mean, he had gown well over a foot taller with a black hood covering his features. Retreating now, he headed towards the door...

Stepping a little closer in order to see the price of the broom, Rylee crinkled her nose a little. If she was truly going to get that broom for herself by the end of the summer she was going to have to work harder for it. That meant more chores around the house and property, a lot more babysitting for Saros and some of the other neighbors smaller children. She could always walk pets too! And maybe sell a few of her flower crowns, the older ones, not the new ones. She was still working on those.

Rylee was still doing some mental math calculations when a shadow fell over her in the form of someone quite a bit taller than her standing beside her. Of course. It always had to be someone much taller than her, probably a boy that was going to be trying out for Quidditch or something. Swinging her blue eyes to the side she caught sight of the tall boy with the dark hood over his head. Uhh... wasn't it a little warm for that?

It wasn't until the boy was walking away that she realized he looked familiar. Hogwarts familiar. Someone she knew but gosh had they grown! Names and faces flitted through the Gryffindor's mind until very quickly she knew who he was. Her buddy. He had left so suddenly during the middle of term and while she had tried to owl him a few times to find out what happened there had been no luck. Was he returning to Hogwarts?!

"Ewan?" she called out following after him. Maybe he hadn't recognized her or maybe... it wasn't him at all.

Ewan couldn't help but see her eyes widen as he Rylee took in his figure. He hoped he hasn't scared her but... in all honestly, he didn't want to be spotted nor did he think he would be. However, if there was someone who he didn't mind being spotted by, it would have been the red haired girl.

Pulling his hood down now, he gave her a brief flash of the cheeky smile that was always usually spread across his face. "Hey there girl on fire! How's things?", his grin actually genuine now. Reaching down, he wrapped his long arms around her and brought her into a giant bear hug. Letting go, his monkey like grin across his face, he felt... strange somehow. He hadn't smilled like this in a while. His mind raced back to the last time he saw the girl with the fiery red hair... he honestly couldn't remember.

Rylee waited with baited breath as he turned around and removed his hood showing her that it was indeed Ewan. The boy on fire. The boy that had changed his hair bright red last term and belted out the lyrics to one of her favorite songs all to get a laugh from her. It seemed like so long ago... had it only been a few months? Six maybe if she was right or had it been even longer?

"Hey! Good, things are... good." At least today they are. The summer was usually better. Getting to be home around her family helped. She wrapped her arms around him in return hugging him tightly only letting go when he had first and staring up at him. When had he grown so much?! "How are you? Are you coming back to Hogwarts in September?" What she really had wanted to ask was 'what happened?' and 'is everything okay?' but she didn't. No need to push him away when she had only just run into him again.

With a wide grin, he continued to watch her. It had been a while. Almost 6 whole months had gone bye since he'd left Hogwarts without saying goodbye. He'd missed her more than he'd care to admit... even to himself.

Forcing his smile a little now, "yeah I'm pretty good, thank you". Looking down at her now, he continued, "yeah I'm coming back. Hopefully for the whole year this time", his hand still rested on her shoulder.

Curiosity now getting the better of him now, he grinned, reluctently "so what have I missed fire girl?", all whilst slowly whistling girl on fire. Briefly, he looked down, his muggle clothes slightly worn from his long journey.

"Oh, thanks." His more, for lack of a better word, ruthless form of beating was still new to him...but it was a far better strategy than hitting the bludger into empty space. "....you did mean quidditch, yeah?"

Had to check. He was, well, fairly certain considering the shop and how...well...there was a poster WITH his own face on it on the wall and stuff. Something he was not used to at all.

Now...back to this poor cat...

"....you a player too or a fan?" he asked as he knelt down and got eye level with the cowering cat and offers his hand on the floor, palm up, and meow'd softly. He ought to ask a kneazle to teach him some important terms so he wasn't just mimicking. Or...maybe he ought to see about brewing a certain brew again. It had helped immensely with his bowtruckle, after all.

Thankfully, whatever the Hufflepuff was saying, was enough for the cat and it slowly dragged itself across the floor to his hand. Once he could manage, he grabbed it gently by the scruff of the kneck - like a mama cat only he used his hand and not his mouth, of course - and scooped it up into his arms.

Ravenclaw? Probably one of the houses at Hogwarts? Dizzy knew Hogwarts had houses, unlike Beauxbatons, but hadn't really tried to look them up or anything. Runa probably had, but Dizzy thought it'd be more of an adventure to discover the houses once there. "I'm second year too. Maybe we'll be in the same house? Do you play Quidditch? I am thinking of maybe trying out, but never really played before."

Before Dizzy could respond to Nettie about whether it was just the price or anything else that drew her first to the Nimbus... everything happened.


Text Cut: everyone after the "incident"






Nettie's words of comfort had the opposite effect, sparking a question that Dizzy couldn't answer. "No one came in or left after, have they?" Visions of Solstice running through the crowds of shoppers on the street, terrified filled her.

Dizzy looked up at the shopkeeper, tears starting to well in her eyes a little, and shook her head. "I just got him from Magical Menagerie an hour ago. I don't even know what treats he likes yet." She...she...she had to find him. HAD TO! They might have only known each other an hour, but she'd bonded with him fully in that hour!

Frantic now, Dizzy took off down the aisles, searching under the shelves and displays. "Solstice! Here kitty! Solstice! Where are you?" Please be okay, please be okay, pleasepleasepleasebeokay! "Solst..." Dizzy came around one aisle and spotted the two boys next to the magazines, something curiously bundled in one of the boys arms like he was holding a...

"SOLSTICE! You found him! Oh thank you, thank you, thank you!" She gave the boy a hug, not caring they hadn't actually met. He saved her kitten. He was a hero. Heroes got hugs. Period.

To the outsider just as suddenly as the kitten was lost it was found! This was good. Brad's anxious face merely morphed back to reflecting his usual calm mood. "Ah.. excellent find there, young man." He imagined they could use some privacy and such with the hugging displaying just then. "Now then, if you need any assistance with checking out or.. another accident I'll be at the counter." Yep, time to head back to the counter where he'd be ready to assist again at the next moment.

Just like that, Rylee's grin matched her friends and things felt almost like they had when the two met last September. Her mind raced with questions to ask him but something inside her told her that now wasn't the right time for any of that. Some things needed time and why he had left like he had, without saying bye, well that may very well be one of those things.

"Yeah? That's great!" Rylee smiled brightly. "If you plan on leaving again midway through term... at least let me know, okay?" Seriously. Even a scribbled note saying he had to leave would have been better than getting no word about it at all. He had just been... gone. There one day and not the very next. No one she had asked had been able to tell her anything more than 'he had gone home'.

What had he missed? Why did he have to ask that. Her freckled nose crinkled a little and she began to fidget shifting her weight from foot to foot. "I uh... well-... a lot..." Rylee shifted her gaze onto the floor at her feet, unconsciously rubbing at her left arm. Only thing good things, talk only about the good things... "There was a trip to Gringotts and an overnight camping trip..." Mhmm those were nice. Don't bring up the creature adventures thing in the lake or the Inferi... or the Boggart or Ghoul at Hogsmeade...

Ewan's grin widened now as he watched Rylee's spread. As he watched closely, his smile matching hers, he seen a slight flicker on her face as though she was annoyed. Okay. She did have a right to be. A crincle now appearing on his brow, his smile slowly shifted, replaced by a blank mask. "I uhh.. sorry. I didn't want to". With a small sigh, he continued, "I'm sorry. Believe me, I wish I could have stayed".

Ruffling his long hair and looking down, he couldn't meet her face. He wanted to tell her but well...he'd end up breaking down. Seizing on to her next answer, he quickly rearranged his face into a smile "that sounds really cool! I wish I could have come!".

Derf was not banking on cradling the kitten in his arms like a baby, seemed an awful lot to expect it to present it's tummy to him considering how scared it seemed hidden behind the magazine display....but the feline was also clinging to his shirt somewhat desperately. Good thing the Hufflepuff had gained a rather high threshold for pain these days. His attention primarily on the creature in his arms, Derf somewhat heard the calls of a younger girl for her familiar....but he CERTAINLY felt the arms that were wrapping around his waist moments later.

And...well...he was never one to turn down a hug. Though his arms were a bit full at the moment so he couldn't properly reciprocate.

"Oh, is this your person?" he chuckled under his breath - clearly speaking to the kitten rather than the girl herself. "Reckon I ought to return you proper then, yeah?" Which he would do....once she let go of him so he COULD, you know?

And he simply nodded his head towards the shopkeeper - who he also had not noticed until just now. At least the kitten hadn't used anything for a scratching post just yet?

A fluid of emotions must have been coursing through her friend as well. One moment they were both smiling and the next Ewan looked upset. This wasn't how she wanted a reunion to go. "Whatever happened to make you leave so fast... I'm sure you'll tell me about when you're ready. Until then... let's just put that aside, yeah?" Sadness wasn't what either of them needed right now!

Rylee quickly grasped onto Ewan's own mild excitement and went on to shift their conversation onto more happier things. "It was pretty awesome! Camping is always really fun though." Sleeping beneath the stars was relaxing and always managed to clear her head like not much else could.

With the growth spurt he had gone through his old hand-me-down broom wasn't doing the trick anymore. It was barely supporting the height or the weight he had put on, plus he was really hoping to advance his Quidditch playing skills this term. That wasn't going to happen unless he had a new broom. Glancing around the store he found a few of the brooms.

He had been going back and forth and back and forth. He had worked all summer to save up to get this broom. Well that and his pop-pop told him he would pay for the broom anyways. He really that he'd have a quidditch playing grandson since his brothers had all played Quodpot back at Ilvermorny. Stepping closer to the Thunderbolt 6000 he looked it over and tried to decide if it was the one he was going to get or not.

Under the premise of needing new Quidditch goggles, Cameron had walked into the Quidditch store. For like the 10th time this summer alone. He liked it in here, alright? It made him feel at ease. And it wasn't like he was BUYING something every time he was here, after all.

Okay, today he was.

But only today.

Turning the goggles over in his hands absently, Cam walked over to the broomsticks. Just out of interest, you know. "Are you buying it?" He asked once he realized that he knew the boy standing next to him. He was on the Quidditch team too. He could probably do with a new broom, to be honest.

Breaking off the hug, Dizzy gently took Solstice from the boys arms. "Thank you, thank you! You're a hero!" Poor kitten, he was trembling! She winced as Solstice dug his claws into her. He wasn't meaning anything by it, she knew. He was just scared and was clinging on to her for comfort.

"Thank you so mu..." Dizzy's voice strangled itself as she looked up at her hero for the first time. Two competing descriptions of the older boy leapt into her mind at once, the result of which was the description: He's like a greek surfer god dude.... And she was just hugging him! Oh, Merlin.

That was enough to break Dizzy of her short spell. "Er...sorry. Er...thanks again." Was she as red in the face as she felt? "I'm Dizzy...This is, um, Solstice..." Oh, Merlin. She felt like she was watching a train wreck in slow motion. And she was the train!

At least she was remembering to speak English, somehow. Or, was that making it worse? "I....I...need to find a broom. Excuse me..." She slowly started making her way back to Nettie and the other girl, but stopped. "Thank you!"

It was, all things considered, a slightly too warm day to have 'Nox draped over her shoulder as he had been ever since they'd left the menagerie. Not that Runa would consider attempting to move the kitten though. The little fluff ball seemed to trust her so far - no point in disrupting that by forcing him down from where he wanted to be. Now, where had Dizzy gotten off to... She'd been talking about... cleaning supplies? No... that wasn't right. Runa scolded herself for not paying attention and then stopped suddenly.

"Quality Quidditch Supplies" read the sign over the door.

"Brooms!" The odd looks she got from a few others on the street as the girl diverted herself into the shop were met with a shrug. By now, Runa was generally accustomed to such things.

She was just in time to see Dizzy retreating from a boy while thanking him. Runa reached the other girl at the same time as her sister. "Who's the boy you think is cute?"

I'll fill you in about what's been happening?". Despite the gut wrenching feeling it gave him to talk about it, he knew he had to speak to someome


Smiling now, his mind wandering to his favourite constellation, he couldn't help but picture the scene that she had painted for him. "Camping with your friends in a tent sounds like so much fun! I hope we get to go again this year!". He couldn't hide the obvious longing in his voice. Although, if his current predicament continued, he'd be doing a lot of camping anyway.

Patrcik startled when the voice asked if he was buying it. "Oh, still trying to make up my mind." He had been playing as much as he could all summer, well as much as he could between baseball games. He was seriously hoping that he could make the team again, he hoped by the time he was a seventh year he'd at least have something to show for it. He was hoping that Slytherin could pull out the quidditch cup this term.

He turned looking at the guy, he knew him, he had seen him around the common room pretty frequently. "New goggles?" he asked pointing to the goggles that Cam was turning over in his hands. He was never a fan of goggles, a lot like he wasn't a fan of face masks in Baseball.

They felt odd. He glanced back at the broom, "Deciding if the 6000 would be better than a different broom altogether."

Default Derf and Dizzy!
curly haired prefect - "sometimes I get angry!" - 30/90 - *chicken emoji* - probably @ Disney - I speak dog

Oh, look! It was Derf! And he had the kitten! Nettie grinned and watched as the older boy approached them and reunited Dizzy with her escaped pet. "Hiya Derf!" Nettie piped up as the prefect approached them. Of COURSE the older Puff would be there to save the day. He always seemed to be involved in the drama. It was one of the reasons Nettie liked to stick by him when things started to get crazy. Like when magical cursed treasure suddenly appeared on a class trip.

"Yes, let's get back to the brooms!" she said with a smile to her new friend, completely oblivious to all the blushing and stammering. "This is an important decision, after all," she added with a nod.

Nettie was starting to lean towards the Nimbus. Maybe. UGH. Why was this decision so hard?!
