As long as the head liked her, that was fine, cause y'know she wanted that Head Girl badge, just to remind her parents she was the favourite child... Or a Prefect badge. One or the other.

She took the eight sickles, and stole a glance at them, resting safely in her palm. So they were the silver-ish ones? Right? So were the tiny brize ones knuts? She almost wished she'd aske her mom to come with jer, but she didn't want to embarass herself. "Thankyou, uh, Sir, but if you don't mind me asking... Are the little bronze coins knuts?" she asked as politely as she could manage. Cause she should probably find out sooner rather than later.
How would he know? Easy. "My godson, the Slytherin male Prefect, attends Hogwarts," and yes, he said it with a heavy doze of pride in his voice. "He'd tell me if the professors were no good, but so far he's enjoyed his stay there." And he was graduating this term. SIGH. When did his little boy grow up so fast? It was too soon...too soon.

Oh, she was asking about Wizard currency. "I don't mind at all," Xavier grinned. He brought out three coins and displayed them out on the counter. "This large, golden coin is the Galleon, which I'm sure you know," because she had payed with it. "The silver, medium coin is the called a Sickle and this copper, small coin is a Knut," he explained. Xavier was well aware the girl had asked just about the Knut, but a little lecture never hurt anyone, hehe.

"Well, my dad won't let me buy them normally," he admitted, laughing a little as he looked over the masses of things he had there. "I thought I should make the most of it while I was here without him," he added. And that much was certainly true. His dad hated anything magical and anything sweet.

"6 galleons," he repeated as he counted out the galleons, "15 sickles," he counted those out too, "And 15 knuts," he counted those as well. "At least they should last me a while, right?" he grinned. Not if he had his way, but still, he could try to make them last.
Xavier grinned in an amused manner. "Don't worry about it, more than half my customers share your same issue." It was more like all of his customers under the age of seventeen that snuck into his shop and bought loads of sweets because their parents disliked it.

"They should, but you could always come back and refill on your supplies before the train leaves," Xavier grinned. Really, the kid should think about it, it was a smart idea.

She looked back briefly to ensure that her father was coming right behind her with the money to pay the nice man. The glow that was coming from her face was hard to miss as she made plans of exactly how she would devour these--she might not have even waited until she got home!

Michael trailed slowly behind his bouncing 11 year old. Just look how happy he made her. No boy could have done that, nope, just him. A smile danced on to his face when he got to the counter and saw just how much she was glowing. This would definitely be worth it.
And there came Lexa, the Gumball Machine Shaker. That nickname was going to pretty much stay with Xavier for a while... Well, unless someone else took that title away from her, which was NOT going to happen because he was going to keep a close eye on his baby. Oh, yes he was.

"Okay, let's see what you have here," Xavier said, eyeing all the candy. This was one smart girl. Really, he's never seen a child tame a parent like she had.


OOC: Would you please list the items she got.

"Well, then, you should come more often since I'll be ordering lots more of those." Actually, he was going to be ordering a whole lot of everything. Business was good right now and that made Xavier a very happy shopkeeper.

"Thank you." He took the money from her, counted it and then deposited it in the register. Oh yeah, he was going all muggle style up in here...though, it was protected my charms, hehe. "Here's a bag for your goodies and I hope you have a great day!" See, happy shopkeeper.

She was trying to figure out where she had seen this man before, which was hard to do without staring. Staring was rude. Staring was rude. Staring was rude.

She collected the three Galleons from her back pocket and set them down. Kanna fished out the three sickles from the front pocket as well. She furrowed her eyebrows slightly down at the counter, thinking.

WAIT A SECOND!

She looked back up to him, her eyes widened, and her mouth hanging open slightly. "You--You used to play for the Foulmouth Falcons!"

OHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGOD!
Xavier had been patiently waiting for the girl to pay up when she said THAT!

A HUGE smile spread across his face as he beamed. "The one an only, Xavier the "Wreck" Baltazar," he chuckled. He had earned the name "Wreck" because of his fantastic beater abilities...and because anyone whom encountered him and his bat ended up in a wreck.

Bahahaha!

Xavier searched for something under the counter and then placed it over the top. "Would you like an autograph?" Free of charge, of course. All for his fans.

*Cue dazzling smile*
