| | Rubbish Bin The rubbish bin has surprisingly been here before some of these shops were here - namely Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes - which was able to obtain such a cheap rent by its creators Fred and George Weasley, by accepting a store location next to the rubbish bin. The rubbish bin contains various wrappers and broken magical instruments, as well as the occasional half eaten ice cream cone or other sweet, or even a decomposing dead animal.
Basically, it generally has some NOT so good odors emitting from it. But once you get past the stenches, there may be some junk that could be your next treasure. So have a peek, if you dare, but don't come crying when some random item or pest poked your eye out.

Did that mean she would do it today? Maaaaybe. Mostly, she just wanted to hang out with Val somewhere other than their two houses. So here she was in DA, wandering past Weasley Wizard Wheezes, crinkling her nose as.....SOMETHING....bothered her. The smell was one of the worst she had ever inhaled. Naturally, she headed right towards it. WHERE WERE U, SMELLY SMELL? Valencia was excited to have some free time to catch up with Aboli. Sure, they'd seen each other a few times, but she was so used to seeing her every day that anything less seemed like they never saw each other.
What was she becoming? She had friends that she missed. This was a new and exciting (and somewhat scary) experience.
She was wandering around looking for the snake when she spotted the other girl. Heading right toward... "Why are you heading toward the rubbish?" she asked. "Have you got something to dispose of?"

She spotted Valencia, but hardly paid her mind as she got closer to the bin. "You mean like a body?" She smirked as she turned to look at her best friend. "You'd be the one I'd call to help me dispose of it - bit of a bad place to get ride of one here, though. No....I just.....it smells SO bad I just had to know what could possibly smell THIS bad. Have you ever smelled a rubbish bin that smelled this BAD?" she gestured wildly at the bin.
Fancy their meeting spot being the stinkiest spot in all of Diagon Alley. It seemed fitting for the two of them for some reason. One of the first things Aboli had done when getting home and receiving her DELAYED birthday gift was show Valencia. It had been a gooorgeous skull, preserved and kept in perfect condition. It was part of her bone collection at home.
So their weird friendship made this meeting spot less curious and more fitting.

"Animal related things can smell pretty bad. As well as food. Really, anything organic sets off smells." "What do you want to do? Or did you just want to hang out here?"

As well as food. Really, anything organic sets off smells." "What do you want to do? Or did you just want to hang out here?" Curious indeed. Aboli snorted. "Hang out near the rubbish bin? Valencia, honestly..." she shook her head and laughed. "I'm not sure this is the best place we could choose. However...while I'm here," she grabbed some crumpled paper from her backpack and tossed it gently into the bin. "So. Where to from here? I don't care what we do, but I'm just glad to be AWAY from my mum." As much as she had missed Ziggy last year, she and her mother butted heads a LOT. They just thought so differently about things sometimes....and oooother times, they were way too alike. It was exhausting. Not to mention that her mother had the tendency to try to ANALYZE her like one of her clients sometimes. It was EXHAUSTING OK? "Where's Royse at today? Chilling out somewhere without you?" she grinned.

Chilling out somewhere without you?" she grinned. Valencia shrugged. "You're the one that's been walking closer to it." So really this was her fault.
She tilted her head to the side. "Things not going well at home?" sh asked. Valencia found this odd considering how much Aboli missed her mum over the school year. "He's at the house. Dad and him bonded over cars." she said with a bit of an amused expression. "I think he's trying to get dad to teach him how to drive."

Aboli would not take the blame for it even if it were her fault. K?
But she did manage to get any trash from her bag into the rubbish bin. Aboli was normally neat and tidy, and so her backpack was pretty much spotless, but she had a couple of things from last semester still in it. And it was SUMMER so school stuff should not be in there! "Things are going well....just....Mum and I always fight a lot. It's the usual. I thought she'd be cooler since she hadn't HEARD from me in months on end but...what can you really do," she shrugged and sighed. "OooOooohh...cars. Cool. I don't think I want to know how to drive. It seems scary. And dangerous." And she was beyond muggle means of transportation, she thought to herself. "Are you interested in learning how to drive?" It seemed like such a Royse thing, too.
Before Aboli could do anything else, though, she pulled some gloves out of her bag. "I got these for next year at school....I figure it'll help me wean off of potions and stuff." She slipped them on. "Only thing is it's hot for my poor hands. MAYBE we can charm them!"

"Only thing is it's hot for my poor hands. MAYBE we can charm them!" Valencia nodded. "How's everyone else in the family? Could you causally just... move topics?" She'd never really had any arguments with her parents. She didn't know how it worked. "I know how to drive. My dad taught me. He thought it was important. I just can't legally do it off the property. I imagine it's scarier with other people around." Doing it on her own just around the house area it was completely fine.
She took the girl's hand and studied it. "Circulating the air would help." she agreed.

Aboli knew Valencia probably wasn't familiar with much suffering or uncomfortability, and usually she didn't let it bother her. Miss Perfect!Life was her best friend, someone she admired, and just because Valencia had a relative easy life (to Aboli at least) didn't mean she valued her less or anything. But she just siiiiighed at her friend's recommendation. "It doesn't really work like that between us. Mum picks and picks and doesn't leave me alone once we get into it." And she knew Ziggy wasn't doing it to be mean or annoying....but her mum couldn't handle not solving a problem as soon as it came up. "WAIT - you KNOW how to drive?!" How come Aboli didn't know this information already?! What the heck?!?! She was a LITTLE jealous only because it was something Val knew how to do that she herself didn't, but she wasn't sure she would be good at driving or would feel comfortable enough behind the wheel. It just seemed sooooOOoo scary.
Circulating air seemed like a good idea. "Okay...how do we do that?"

"If you're that close and she asks that many questions, she would probably understand." At least, that's what normal healthy relationships were like.
She nodded. "Yeah. But like I said... I've just driven around the house. Nothing special. My dad just thinks it's important to have a well rounded muggle knowledge... just in case." "It's just a simple weather spell. I can charm them for you on the train if you'd like."
