She picked up the book of face paint ideas and is amazed to see that it was possible to have moving pictures! She had to have one. Launna heaped her shopping bags on the ground and leant her new broom against one of the chairs. Perhaps she could have a broom face painting? She wandered over to one of the shopkeepers. She thought she recognised them - oh yes, they were the shopkeeper at Flourish & Blotts! 'Hi, I was wondering whether I could have a face painting of my new Firebolt,' she asked, pointing towards her broomstick. 'And perhaps it could be chasing a golden snitch...?' She dug her hand into one of her bags and pulled out the snitch she'd bought at Quality Quidditch Supplies. 'Like this one?' She smiled hopefully.
Brett watched as a number of people approached the table and talked amongst themselves, some looking through the designs in the book. No one had yet approached them to ask for a design to be painted, but that was fine with Brett. It was just as good watching them be creative in their own way.

Ah, he spoke too soon. As a young girl approached him, he smiled, recognizing her from the bookstore. He studied the broomstick, quite impressed that she had a Firebolt. "You play Quidditch?" He asked as he began to pull a few paint jars towards him. "I can definitely try to give you the most accurate drawing. We'll see what a little magic can do."

He gestured for her to sit on the bench next to him, and then eyed the broom critically.
