Default Street Vendors



Though numerous street peddlers line the streets of Diagon Alley, customers would be wise to be wary of them. Any number of items can be found hawked on the streets daily, many useless and some illegal. One might be able to buy a cheaper wand, running the risk of it exploding during use. Bottoms have been known to fall out of the defective cauldrons bought from one of the carts. Not all is bad, though. Discounted jewelry can be bought, though the gold or gems may not be pure. One some days, a hag comes through with a cart of wind-chimes, some proclaimed to warn of burglars. Often, knick-knacks and small décor can be found in various carts. Be warned, though – sometimes the items being sold have been stolen from others.

Beyond item hawkers, various stalls are set up selling street food. Try a Cauldron Bread (a bread bowl carved out with soup or chowder served inside), stop by and grab some skewers/kebabs to go, hit up the Confetti Popcorn (the fizzy popcorn is supposedly made with real Muggle soda and fizzes in your mouth; dill pickle flavored even crunches like a pickle; berry flavored popcorn actually has dried cranberries, which goes well with the raspberry, blackberry and strawberry flavored popcorn). If you’re looking for a quick snack, the streets have enough.

A couple of minutes later, Cooper was arriving at the shady spot she had indicated earlier with a lemonade in each hand and a basket of fish and chips (extra chips and a little paper cup of ketchup and one cup with tartar sauce) balanced on his forearm. "Here you are," he said as he offered her one of the lemonades and then settled down himself, quite ready to tuck into his lunch.

Any rosiness to her features was not totally unnoticed but he did assume that the glow had come from being out in the sun for an extended period - hence her suggestion that they sit in the shade.

"Do you mind if I...mix all the ketchup in with the tartar sauce? Or would you like straight ketchup with your chips?"

Charlie had walked over to the table that was below a tree and plum in the middle of shade. She loved that there were places to sit out here during all of the different times of year. it was one of her favorite things about the Alley, the hustle and bustle when the Hogwarts kids were around was fun, but even when they were in school it was a busy place.

She watched as Cooper walked closer noticing his balancing skills, smiling she took the lemonade he was offering her, "Thank you." She leaned in a bit closer than necessary but it was Cooper and she was a liability when it came to him.

She shook her head at his first question but realized maybe she should actually answer him since he asked two questions, "I don't mind at all, by all means add the ketchup." She waited for him to do that before snagging a chip to dip. "How have things been for you? I feel like it's been quite a while since we were able to sit down and just chat." She made direct eye contact with him like that would let him in on all her secrets.

Shade was good. Cooper had perpetually neglected sunblock and had quite the farmer's tan because of it. He didn't mind it so much though, it was a representation of his hard work and he was working hard. Maybe a little too hard, but it was giving him a very comfortable financial foundation. He might even...maybe...find his own flat soon. Though separation from Phoebe and Theo felt like an uncomfortable concept. Phoebe moving in with Morgan was inevitable and with his erratic schedule he just felt like...maybe...he...should...well...anyway.

Thoughts for another time and maybe when he actually remembered his farmers tan since his rolled three quarter sleeves were hiding the tan lines.

"You're welcome," he smiled back as he settled into his seat properly and set right to fixing his not-so-special-special sauce. Using a chip to mix, Cooper popped it into his mouth and licked his thumb clean from some of the sauce that had splashed up while mixing. "Uuuuuuh..." he chuckled after popping a couple more chips into his mouth, once again licking his fingers - this time from grease. "Gosh...I don't know. Sort of more of the same. Working too much, according to some, and that means splitting my time between here and France...been picking up more hours on the Ashburry-Hawthorne sanctuary, Creatures and Cwtches Sanctuary, since they just had their second child and...they could use the extra hands. Some days I'm more a human babysitter than assisting Derfael with creatures or repairs around the stables." He didn't mind this though and it was a nice change up sometimes from working exclusively with creatures as a creature healer in the Alley or herding abraxan with Monsieur Benoit. Photography had sort of taken a backseat, ish, but he still got to dabble in it in meaningful ways. Promotional art for the sanctuary and the Benoit estate specifically. "It's Mercer and Marina's OWL year at school...so been trying to send them my notes and such to help them prepare. Not so sure they really appreciate it though. Probably a bit annoying and overbearing to them."

Cooper had been...rather over zealous with his studying. Great coping mechanism for PTSD from the Third Wizarding War.

Cooper leaned forward and grabbed one of his fried fish fillets and dipped it deep into his sauce. "How are things at Malkins going? You getting to make designs of your own yet? I could take some photos for you sometime if you'd like." And then SethElliot's voice went buzzing in his ear about how he ought not do anything for free, not even favors to friends. Cooper had made some coin at Hogwarts taking headshots for friends - awkward as that had been in some cases - but his style was not the best for modeling agencies in that way. Less high fashion and commercial and more...intimate. His aesthetic worked pretty good with product display though and editorials. "I come with a very reasonable price point," he added as an afterthought, hopefully it coming across that he was teasing.

Adapting to a new work place and a new routine was going to take some getting used to for the twenty-five year old. She supposed it was her first real ‘adult’ job since graduating University, one where she wasn’t constantly being guided or working for a family member. If she was going to be completely honest with herself it wasn’t one hundred percent the job she was hoping for but it fit with her credentials and she guessed that with age and with experience she might be able to reach her goals in a couple of years. Truth be told Allie really wanted to be an educator but the job market was slim pickings and she really needed a job at that minute in order to be able to pay for the wedding that she had always dreamed of. Her fiancé Matty would probably have been happy with a small affair but Allie wanted a big event full of family and friends and enough food to feed a small army. It was one of the reasons she had fit into the Ackerly family so well, there were so many of them and family was at the core of whatever they did.

Instead of taking her lunch break in the food court of the Ministry, Allie had decided to venture into Diagon Alley in the hopes of gaining some more inspiration for her upcoming nuptials. Her sandwich in one hand which she was gently munching away on and her large black bag complete with paint splatters from that days daycare activities sat in the crook of her arm, her feet padded their way along the cobblestones and in the direction of Madame Malkins passing by the wares of the street vendors. A shiny gold necklace quickly caught her eye and she paused for a second to take a closer glance.

Perhaps it would be unwise to purchase from one of these vendors as their reputation wasn’t always positive but a girl could certainly have a look could she not?

"I come with a very reasonable price point," he added as an afterthought, hopefully it coming across that he was teasing.
Charlie smiled because forearms, let's be honest. But she needed to focus because Cooper was right in front of her and it had been too long since she had been able to see him.

Working hard? That didn't surprise her one bit, he always had been a hard worker and wanted to be the best in his field. "Are you still enjoying working at the sanctuary? I know that you really enjoyed it the last time we spoke." Her laughter filled the air when he mentioned being a child wrangler more often these days. "I can only imagine how much those kids keep you on your toes. I'm sure the creatures are a bit more predictable." OWLs, she didn't miss those in the slightest at all. She nodded, "sounds like you just want them to have a security of passing. I can't blame you there."

Snatching a chip she smiled and nodded, "I'm still loving it. There's just so much you can do for people. Little linings here, custom works there." She hummed thinking about the latest project the owner had let her lead on. "Actually, I've gotten a few opportunities on the last few custom orders that came in. But I've still been doing some designing here and there on my own." Did he just offer to give her a full afternoon of picture taking? What if she was the model, would he still do it? "You'd really do that? You'd take photos of my work, what if I wanted to model it in the photos would that be okay?" She didn't lose sight of his later comment, "what's the going rate for a Cooper original session?" He may not always be doing much photography but he was still really good at it and she knew it. Seth Elliot could shush he was always pushing the friend group, but he couldn't be blamed here. Cooper was worth the cost.

Seth Elliot could shush he was always pushing the friend group, but he couldn't be blamed here. Cooper was worth the cost.
Cooper beamed with pride. "Oh yeah, absolutely. I'm trying to convince Mecer to join me there a bit over the summer for some work experience," he added. It was a bit more selfish than that, in all honesty, in that he felt it was an easy way to guarantee some time with his brother since he insisted on keeping such a full on schedule. "Though...first I ought to do something for him and Marina since they will have finished sitting their OWLs ...and putting up with me reminding them about them." Stressful too. Well, stressful for himself at least since he had thrown himself entirely into studying. Perfect coping mechanism for wartime trauma. There really was only one kid he needed to properly wrangle...but she was a lot. The adventurous spirit of both her parents was amplified and she literally wanted to take every creature out for a joy ride.

Smiling a bit as she spoke, Cooper felt his heart swell a bit at hearing how much she was enjoying what she was doing. Thriving, truly. It really was something special to see their generation bouncing back from everything they had been through...and it also reminded him of something. "Speaking of...I may bring my creature healer robes in for some adjusting, if you don't mind. It's starting to fit tight in places and I'd really rather not buy a whole new set." Something special about his first work uniform, even if it was not the profession he saw himself in long term. "I think so...yeah," he nodded with a slightly wider smile. It was such a peculiar barrier to have with his photography but he had worked through the added expectations and pressure he put on himself when it came to friends. He couldn't always help that he was such a perfectionist. "I mean, that's assuming my style suits your aesthetic. I've done some product photos for Helena in the past, jewelry, and that went alright."

Talking pricing was something that he still was not comfortable with, a feeling that was only intensified by the level of familiarity with a potential client. He felt awful when the response was that it was too pricy or embarrassed when it seemed like he was selling himself short. So much easier to just get hired for a job. Self employment was stressful. "Oh...well...somewhere between...10 and 15 galleons depending on the length of the shoot and the amount of set up for said shoot," he pitched while rubbing his now sweaty palms on his knees.

Knick knacks.

Ary loved knick knacks, the uncertainty of what would find among the endless amount of trinkets. There was something about that uncertainty and the chaos of it all that appealed to him. It was why he adored that junk shop here in Diagon Alley. That place was next up on his list to visit, after which he needed to catch up with the rest of the family. Except for Dy. His sister was a short distance from him arguing with a witch over a Gobstones set that supposedly once belonged to their dad, the famous player for the Hereford Hippogriffs.

Ary wanted to snort with laughter because clearly the witch was lying. Their dad kept ALL his Gobstones sets like a mad hoarder. There was no way that Aditya Atreyu-Rehman would ever discard any of his precious sets and Dy was trying to drill that fact into the witch’s head. Dy was fighting a losing battle though. Ary simply shook his head and decided to examine some rather shiny jewellery on display.

Did that bracelet have various species of owls as charms?

Having left her auntie at the leaky cauldron the 11 year old Emmie made her way towards the street vendors to look up the stuff on display. Maybe she could find a new bracelet or some popcorn before she headed to FB to buy her new books. Emmie hadn't thought that she was going to Hogwarts in september. She was supposed to go to Durmstrang like all of her friends did, but now she wasn't. The events of the summer that she didn't want to think about had led to her, and her twin brother Jamie having to move in with her auntie Laurel, and now they were here in Diagon Alley, and she was slightly lost.

Passing some stalls Emmie headed over to a jewellery stall where a boy about her age was eyeing up the things on display. Stepping up next to the boy Emmie plastered on a beam, and asked curiously "Hi! Do they have any fun creature bracelets here? I'd really like something with a fairy."

While little Ary was not interested in wearing the bracelet, the fact that there were owls on it fascinated him! As a matter of fact, anything pertaining to creatures interested him. His examination of the bracelet was interrupted by a chirpy and bubbly unfamiliar voice at his side. Ary straightened up, turned his head and came face to face with a huge beam. This girl could have been Bryony, his best friend, given those energetic traits.

A fairy bracelet? Truthfully, Ary hadn’t noticed. He changed a quick look around but didn’t see any {unless his hurried scan missed them completely}. He turned back to the girl and shook his head. However, a finger did reach out to point to the owl bracelet he had been interested in.

Would she perhaps like one with owls instead?

Would she perhaps like one with owls instead?
Emmie's attention was diverted from the boy by her side to the display in front of them, crossing her mental fingers for seeing something fairy like, but she was out of luck. She then turned her dark eyes, and attention to the boy again, who now was pointing a finger towards an owl bracelet.

Examining the owl bracelet in question Emmie chirped to the boy, throwing in an introduction. "Oh those owl's are cute! I'm Emmeline by the way, who are you? Don't you want that bracelet for yourself?" Boys could wear bracelets just as much as girls did, but when she thought about it Jamie never wore much jewellery. Letting her eyes scan over the display again she wondered if they just sold bracelets or if they necklaces and earrings too?

Ary braced himself for the next round of chattering. See, he’d had plenty of experience with that and since he had immediately tied this girl to Bry’s hyperness, it made sense that the newcomer would fire words away at his ears. Also, he was still convinced that he attracted the majority of people that were talkers.

Needless to say that Aryan was not disappointed as question upon question were fired.

The boy nodded. Yes, the owls were cute. Did this mean that she wanted to buy the bracelet? “I’m Aryan. Hi, Emmeline. No, I was just looking at it. Do you want it?” Because anything related in the remotest of ways to creatures was worth his attention. Ary saw Emmeline looking about at the other items on display. “Looking for something else, then?” Perhaps he could help her find it.

This was not the first time Regulus had noticed the street vendors. In all his wanderings through Diagon Alley, when he was just pacing the time away until his father collected him in the past, he'd seen them alright. Heard them. Caught the aromas of the different stalls on the breeze. Other times he'd been here to buy his school things, and had no extra money for anything frivolous. That's why today was, in its way, momentous. He had with him actual spending money, and not only that, but his papà had given it to him. Maybe that was a sign of their changing dynamic. Maybe not.

The issue now, of course, was that Regulus couldn't decide where to splurge this extra money, or if he should at all, but save it instead. Perhaps it was a test. Papà would probably save it, but then Papà was averse to spending any money unless he had no other choice. Was it, perhaps, a test to see how alike they really were?

It wasn't good to keep thinking like that, Regulus knew, but he couldn't always help it. It was that thinking that had driven him out of every shop so far, so that now he had been walking up and down the vendors' stalls for a good twenty minutes, jangling the coins in his hand, which he kept in his pocket. He could not remember ever having such difficulty making a decision, or puzzling through the deeper meaning of the choice he had been given.

Mentally berating himself, Regulus stopped in his tracks, and turned to the nearest stall. Confetti Popcorn. That one.
