Every child in Wizarding Britain knows that Sugarplum's is the place to be. You can smell the sticky sweetness and bursts of flavour as soon as you walk through the door, the little candy themed bell, enchanted to transform into a different type of candy every hour, will tinkle merrily to announce your arrival, but we won't be surprised if you don't notice it, after all your eyes have a rainbow of delectable sweets to feast on.
Shelves among shelves of different types of wizarding sweets are ranged in aisles before you. The shelves stretch up to the roof and big glass jars display every type of candy imaginable. Can't reach? No worries! Just say the type of candy out loud and the jar will float down to you, ready to scoop out the required amount. Everything is labeled, so it shouldn't be too hard to find what you're looking for. There are a stack of baskets to the right of the last shelf - go ahead and grab one if you need it! There are four gumball machines near the exit to the sweet shop. If you have any knuts in your pocket that you are just dying to get rid of, why not buy a few gumballs with them? All you have to do is place two knuts inside the little slot, turn the knob, and watch as the gumball travels down the maze and to the little compartment at the bottom.
Once you've finished your shopping, you need to escort yourself to the check out counter located on the right side of the store. The shopkeeper can usually be found behind the counter, scooping and weighing sweets for the customers ahead of you.

The three Thanatos children were certainly role models in their own way. However, he couldn’t really help it but be most motivated by Vesper. It was definitely the extra effort she continually made to help him adjust and not be homesick. Perhaps being most motivated by her was his way of reciprocating the energies and time she put into him.
In Viano’s opinion, Vesper was more than capable of conversing with him in Italian, though sometimes she did use the wrong word and it left him momentarily bewildered by what she was really trying to say to him. The little guy grinned. “You and I are always in agreement about everything.”
“Do you need glasses?” Vi quipped in zest. “I’m the baby!” He too giggled. See? Vesper’s habit had rubbed off on him. Who knew how many more would. “Do you think it’s a good idea to let Vasco take over the sweetshop when he’s older? I think more of the chocolates would be eaten rather than be sold.” He was joking of course, and he planned to tease his adoptive brother about it at some point. “What can I say?’’ Vi continued sassily. “I steal traits of the persons I like.”
What else did he want? Viano shifted from foot to foot as he studied the displays. “Peanut butter and jellyfish and Chocolate dragon. It doesn’t have to be much. One piece is of each is enough for me…” Again, he was still adjusting to being able to get what he wanted with no questions asked. “Ice mice? Are they actual mice?” That possibility was quite disturbing.
Vesper saw nothing at all wrong with being spoiled. It wasn't like she was a brat about it and went around rubbing it in other peoples faces. She was always very humble about all the things that she had. It was so easy putting in the effort to make him feel welcome and like one of the family right away, because he was. Viano fit in with them perfectly. No one could tell Ves any different.
In times like those, Vesper was left fumbling for words or trying to describe what it was she was talking about. Sometimes in the silliest of ways that made even less sense that what she had originally said to him. "Of course we are! How can I not agree with a cutie pie like you!" She giggled, reaching out to playfully smush his cheeks.
"You are?! When did that happen?" Vesper smiled. Obviously she knew exactly when he became the baby of the family. "That's a good question, he does eat an awful lot of chocolate, doesn't he?" She would gladly get in on the teasing of their big brother with him. Cue big wide eyes and a fake gasp! "Well start stealing traits from me! We all know I'm going to be your most favorite," she joked, lightly ruffling his hair.
Nod nod. "You got it." Did he know what a good kid he was? She was definitely going to be spoiling him anywhere they went today. Viano's question about the candy being actually mice had Vesper giggling and shaking her head. "Nope, they only LOOK like mice.. but they do make your teeth chatter and squeak for a bit. It's fun."

Viano's question about the candy being actually mice had Vesper giggling and shaking her head. "Nope, they only LOOK like mice.. but they do make your teeth chatter and squeak for a bit. It's fun."
It was for that exact reason that Vi aimed to be like the adopted siblings: none of the three showed off to anyone that they were spoiled. Papa Renner had done well raising them. The realisation made Viano wish that he had been adopted earlier. But then there was that saying. ‘Better late than never’ and he supposed it was true. He would have many more years with the family, and soon that would outweigh the small number of years he hadn’t been with them. Also, Vesper would be right; he did fit in with the family.
Whenever Ves would make errors or have difficulty with words, Vi would make it his duty to correct or help her. After he laughed at her for a bit, of course, because he found her mistakes adorably funny. And suddenly his cheeks were smushed together and his lips puckering a whole lot. “I’m the cutest!” Careful now, Vesper! Don’t let him get a big head with that compliment!
“Since birth,’’ Vi continued cheekily. But at the orphanage, he had been quickly outgrowing the other kids as younger ones joined the group. With his adopted family, he got to always be the baby unless someone younger than he was was adopted. “He does! He’s a chocolate monster.” This was said in the fondest of ways. “Well, you already are my favourite, aren’t you?” There was an angelic smile from him to accompany that hair ruffle.
Viano broke into a smile as his sister agreed to get him the fudge. He couldn’t wait to taste them! At her giggling, he even grinned, belatedly finding his question funny too. “That’s a relief. Imagine eating mice, of all things.’’ He mimed vomiting. “Interesting. We should get some then… you and I can chatter and squeak together. Maybe we can secretly slip Vasco and Vera some? Have them unwittingly join in on the fun…”
Rose was brimming with equal excitement, and scaredness. She was starting her fourth year in a new school. She was likeable Yes, she had never trouble with befriending people, but um it had landed her in big trouble so what if that happened again?. This was why her mummy, and daddy decided that a new school was the best course of action. Plus she'd then follow the family Snakebark tradition to go to Hogwarts. Rose entered Sugarplums with a skip in her step, looking up and around to stare at alll the candy lining the shelves with gaping big blue eyes. "Bonjour," she called out to anyone. Oops maybe it was better to say 'hello' and then she added "Where can i find jelly slugs and chocolate frog cards?"

Well it was quite fortunate for any new student to stumble upon Emma Montmorency, a little ray of sunshine. If her blond hair wasn't sunny and bright enough, surely her personality was. Even if she was still on the small side, she hoped her personality was large enough. Although it was doubtful the rising fourth year needed any sugar, nonetheless she found herself perusing sugarplums out of boredom mostly.
That was when she heard someone asking about chocolate frog cards and jelly frogs. Glancing over she saw the girl appeared to be about her age, yet vastly unfamiliar. Strange considering Emma liked to pride herself as knowing everyone. And liking everyone, being the people pleaser that she was. Although she also knew deep down she probably wasn't everyone's cup of tea. Sometimes she was a bit much and that she'd been slowly learning to accept that.
"You have to buy the whole chocolate frog to get the card ..." Emma informed, "but there was a large display of them I saw ... over there." She pointed toward the back of the store. "I don't know you? Why don't I know you?But you've got like really pretty eyes." Emma added conversely.

Hearing another girl's voice answer her question Rose swiveled around to look at who had answered, a girl about her age and height with a bubbly personality like her own it semmed. "Card?" She echoed confused, but curious. "Why do you need to buy a frog to get a card? I thought you buy the frog for the chocolate am I wrong?" Maybe Rose should get something else chocolaty instead? Looking towards where the frogs where she made big eyes at the albums near buy? "Do people in England collect frogs cards as souvenirs?" This was unfamiliar, why hadn't mummy or daddy told her about this?
Smiling she fibbled a little with her hand's suddenly nervous which was odd for her because she usually had no problem with introducing herself to anyone and everyone. "I'm new. I'm Rose. I just moved here from France and is starting Hogwarts in September. Who are you?"

Was the girl muggle-born or something? Emma was perplexed by the other girl's confusion because 1) she didn't seem that young. But the blond did detect a non-British accent, so perhaps sweets were different in other parts of the world? Sadly she couldn't really confirm this as in her fourteen years of life, she'd only really spent time in the UK. Let alone try any foreign sweets. "Usually with chocolate frogs, avid collectors buy them for the card not the chocolate actually. There's some really cool famous witches and wizards."
She was about to ask where she was from, yet it seemed the other girl filled her in without prodding. "Welcome then, Rose. I'm Emma ... I'm going into my fourth year at Hogwarts. So do you not collect things in France?" Surely there were famous French wizards?

Did all her questions make her seem stupid? Or maybe even muggle-born? She was non-plussed because she was 14, but she had spent most of her 14 years on this earth in France not the UK, and sweets were different there. "Do you collect the cards?" She wondered. "We have sweets in France, like pastilles, and lots of other chocolates." Rose added as she eyed up the notice that if you bought several frog cards you could get a discount since it wasn't long until school started. They had famous wizards in france like the first Supreme Mugwump of the International Confederation of Wizards Bonaccord or Madame Maxine.
Smiling brightly Rose beamed "It's so very nice to meet you Emma! It so happens that I will be in fourth year too unless," Nah she wasn't going to bore the other girl with her complicated school story. If they became friends, maybe she would...But that was for another time. "You can collect things in France, but basically the girls I went to Beauxbatons with just collected make up and jewellery. It could be fun to collect something that lasts for a long time." Getting herself 3 packets of frog cards from the display Rose asked "Got any tip on what I should bring to my first year at Hogwarts other than the required books, clothes and things on the list?"

If they did make her seem stupid, Emma would NEVER tell the girl that. There was many things that Emma was, but calling someone else stupid was not in her vocabulary. She shook her head. "Not really. I mean I collect them, sure, but like I'm not super into it about wanting to get them all, if that makes sense." She frowned. "We have pastilles and chocolates here too, so I guess maybe the sweets aren't that different ... just maybe the games that go along with it?"
Oh so the girl WAS about her age. But what was the unless part about?? The blond studied her for a moment trying to figure it out but had zero clue. "Unless ... what? Perhaps you could tell me on the train." Because you can't just leave Emma Montmorency with a cliffhanger like that. She was GOING to find out even if she had to pester the girl all year. Which she really hoped it wouldn't come to that. "Jewelry lasts a long while. But golly y'all wear makeup?? I wish I could. Dad says I can't until I'm at least fifteen.... Fortunately that's only a few months away, but maybe you could teach me a few things for how to wear it." She'd only really ever seen magazines and they all looked soooo glamorous. She contemplated the girl's question. "Probably see if your parents could send you with some extra monies cause you're gonna want it for Hogsmeade. It's this all wizarding village next to Hogwarts that is super fun, with all kinds of great shops."

JT stood in the aisle for speciality candies being glad for having escaped the clothes shopping with his sister which was horrific by promising to meet them in an hour in Flourish and Blotts. His dad avoided clothes shopping too if his presence wasn't required. He knew that his mum expected JT to try on new uniforms, and everything too since he had grown a few more inches, but luckily not today.
Luck like this deserved some candy the 15 year old tall boy with brownish hair and blue eyes thought to himself as he eyed up at the shelves mumbling to himself. "Now what should I get? Licorice wands, bertie beans, pumpkin pasties or maybe fizzing whizbees?"

Tiffany was absolutely not stalking her housemate. She was just shopping for something sweet, having the biggest sugar cravings despite that being a summer dietary staple. However some eye candy wouldn't hurt anything. Peering around the corner, she felt her cheeks warming and had to look away.
Just ignore.. maybe he won't have seen you, Tiffany tried to persuade herself as she turned her back away, tugging her hat down over hair in greater disguise. "Sugar quills." she muttered in answer to his question. Huh. Who said that?

Girls loved clothes shopping at least his sister did, and JT hated it. He always felt like trying on clothes made him feel warm and sweaty. Plus he never knew if he looked good in the clothes he was trying out. His mum thought he looked good in everything so she wasn't much help. So JT was really glad that he had gotten an hour for himself to spend how he wanted before he had to meet up with his mum and sister.
Still eyeing the candies JT hadn't picked down any of the packets yet when he heard a voice say sugar quills as if in answer to his question. Glancing around he saw nobody else in the aisle directly beside him so he called out hoping he hadn't begun hearing voices that weren't there. "Who's there? Why should I pick sugar quills over the other ones?"

Since Aurora had finished all of her school shopping for the day including buying new robes and potions supplies, she had decided that she deserved to treat herself to something. As well as her sisters and Uncle Adi, of course. And that was why she was buying way more candy than she would have if it was just for herself. It was okay though, because she had plenty of money to spend.
As she shopped, she spotted JT and Tiffany. What was her friend doing? Aurora shook her head in amusement and decided that she would have to talk to her later and ask her why she was acting that way. As it was she just moved on.

It had been a nice summer so far. Granted, most of the time, Arienne had been helping out at Ashcroft Grove, but there had been little trips too. Plus time at home with her family, but there was also the need to get what she needed for the coming term. Exams were looming, and just in general she wasn’t sure exactly what to expect. Hence the decision to stop in for some sweets after her usual trip to the bookshop.
Flourish and Blotts bag hanging off one arm, the blonde had made her way through the various shelves, occasionally dropping something into the little basket she had in her hand. Things for herself, for the twins, for mum and dad, for the workers at the Grove. She figured it wouldn’t hurt to have something to thank them for humoring her while she’d been haunting the facility. She had just added a couple chocolate frogs to the basket when she’d noticed a vaguely familiar figure ahead of herself. “Aurora?”, she asked, hoping it was a lucky guess and the figure was in fact her younger housemate.

Looking in her basket, Aurora bit her lip and tried to figure out how much more candy she would need to get for everyone. She knew that Uncle Adi would want quite a lot given his sweet tooth. She told him that she had gotten hers from him. While she mostly ate very healthy, she did like to indulge herself occasionally.
Deciding to add some more Chocolate Frogs, she grabbed a small handful and added them to the bunch. There, that was more like it.
She smiled to herself and was about to move on when she heard someone say her name. Turning, she saw an older student, who she knew as a fellow Hufflepuff. "Oh, hi! You're Arienne, right?" Aurora was hoping that she was right about that. She gave the other girl a friendly smile.

Oh good. A distraction in the form of two Hufflepuffs - Tiffany had seen Aurora and Arienne enter. Perhaps she could defer to those two somehow. Except that she'd already blurted aloud and there was no turning back now since JT had responded. May as well just swallow your pride. Besides, talking to him didn't mean she had to randomly declare her affections. She was just a fifteen year old girl.
Chewing her lower lip thoughtfully, she decided to just skip the first question. "Because sugar quills are far superior for sweets. You can pretend to be studious, while secretly enjoying your candy. Although licorice wands might not be so bad either, except licorice can sometimes be reminiscent of tar." Word salad activated.

Great, he was hearing voices. His sister would tease JT about it to no end if he told her. Why else would someone talk back to him that visibly werent there unless of course they were disguised? He didn't want to think about that. Liquorice was reminiscent of tar and apparently sugar quills were just surperior candy to everything else according to a voice that sounded oddly familiar, but one he couldn't quite place.
JT shook his head, and wondered what the other voice would say if he took down candy that weren't either of those mentioned ones. Picking down a box of pumpkin pasties, along with a packet of beans he saw that two other Hogwarts girls had entered the shop too. Reaching for the sugar quills JT mumbled. "Nothing good tastes like tar, but smell is another story. Especially certain creature dung is very smellly."

He still hadn't recognized her voice? Tiffany wasn't sure that was a good thing or a bad thing. Maybe a bad thing because it maybe implied that he didn't know she existed. And not knowing she existed was perhaps worse than him finding out she crushed on him. She could step out from behind the aisle - it didn't mean she would be declaring her love for him. Love. She didn't even know what that was.
Deep breath. Be brave. She stepped out to greet him in the aisle so he could see who was talking about. "Tar never tastes good. Although not that i'd know. I mean maybe i licked a tire once, but that's rubber, not tar. Anyway, did you decide what sweets to get? You shopping for the train or just general summer snacks?" There was also Honeydukes in Hogsmeade for sweet restock during the year, so they didn't need to go overboard, in Tiffany's opinion.

Deep breath. Be brave. She stepped out to greet him in the aisle so he could see who was talking about. "Tar never tastes good. Although not that i'd know. I mean maybe i licked a tire once, but that's rubber, not tar. Anyway, did you decide what sweets to get? You shopping for the train or just general summer snacks?" There was also Honeydukes in Hogsmeade for sweet restock during the year, so they didn't need to go overboard, in Tiffany's opinion.
Who's voice was that? JT racked his brain, thinking about the girls in the snake den. Could it be Calliope? Nah, and it definitley wasn't his sister or Iris so was it Tiffany then? Finally the owner of the voice stepped into the aisle to greet him. It was Tiffany from his house which caused him to give a big sigh of relief. He wasn't hearing voices. He wouldn't need to see a healer, thank merlin.
Smiling as their eyes met JT greeted with a raised brow. "Hi Tiffany, you've really licked on a tire? What did the tire taste like?" He almost added what possessed you to lick on a tire, thats probably not healthy. "I decided on beans, pumpkin pastes, sugar quills and packet of chocolate frogs because I want to see if I can get a card I don't have." Picking down a packet of choclate frogs he added. "I'm just here for some summer snacks while I wait for my mum and sister to finish up in Madam Malkins. What brings you to Sugarplums? Just summer snacks too or shopping for the train?"
