She pushed open the door and glanced around. Lots of books… If it was possible, the place looked more disorganized then Flourish and Blotts. But as Daisy knew, looks could be deceiving.

“So, history or biographies…” she muttered trying to decide where to start. She looked around for some signs. “Looks like histories are closer…” And so she took a turn down a row of books towards the history section.

“’cuse me,” she said as she pulled her satchel closer to her to prepare to slip past the boy. As she paused she noticed a few book titles around her. “Interesting topic no?” She making polite small talk. “I recommend Herbert’s “Troubling Treatments and Handling of Pachyderms and Dracunculus.” She paused. “Very informative.”
The Hogwarts Library was definately easier to navigate than this place. While some people relished the opportunity to dig and search for things in second (or in this case third) hand shops, Damien would rather his search be simple and quick. Signs to point him in the right direction.

Wouldn't that be nice. 'Crazy books this way, please'.

What a joke.

Out of the corner of his eye he noticed another girl attempting to find her way though the shop, more than likely in search of a book. He gave her a polite smile and flattened his back against a bookshelf so she could move past him, before turning towards her as she recommended a book. "They are definately different. The topics of some of the books, I mean. Never knew there could be this many wizarding authors to be all honest."

He cleared his throat and rubbed the back of his neck. "I'm actually hoping to find books that focus more on ... the after life of a wizard. You know how the ghosts wander about Hogwarts as they please and have their own tales of their lives -- and deaths in their case --" he paused deciding whether or not continuing this conversation with a perfect stranger was a good idea or not. Damien never gave so much information to someone he hardly knew.

So the boy simply shrugged his shoulders. "Just sounds interesting, is all," he added, Irish accent flowing through.
