Arlo was starting to get the hang of wandering around the little magical street by himself. He still needed nearly everything on his list but he didn't really care too much. If all else failed, Silvestro would have to get the things for him when he had already gone to school. It was his fault it wouldn't have been bought already, considering that Arlo barely understood English, let alone how to buy things in English shops, or even what it was he needed for that matter.

Having wandered around yet another shop for quite a long time trying to work out what he needed, he headed to the counter with his arms full of things he thought he might have needed at some point. On his way around the shop, he had picked up a deck of self shuffling playing cards, a pack of exploding snap, a seven-lock trunk, an abacus (mostly because he just liked to play with them, more than because he would need one), a telescope, an hourglass (again, mostly just because he liked them), a magical camera and some spellotape. He had far too many things, really, but he did like to be prepared. He waited for his turn to come to pay, although he really had no idea how much all of this would come to. Sometimes, he liked having a rich parent that paid him to leave him alone. It was very useful when it came to schooling and needing new things.
