Seri gently browsed the shelves, insepcting something here, picking an object up over there. The shop was amusing. She hadn't visited Hogsmeade before, and found it was perfectly lovely.

They had some similar stuff to WWW, only Seri knew she would need to pick up a load of stuff here since she would NO WAY be going back to WWW anytime in the near OR FAR future. NU-UH. She did, however, find what she was looking for.

Fireworks.

Bingo.

If she wasn't so bent on spending the majority off her money on candy she would have gone on a wild shopping spree in here but of course this visit had a purpose and wasn't done on a whim like it would usually have been.

Her eyes scanned the shop briefly. There was no sign of Seri. Pout. Maybe she was browsing the shelves or something.

She wasted no time in heading down the aisles and it wasn't long before she ran into just the girl she was looking for. "There you are!" GRIN. "Have you spotted what we'll need as yet?" Yup. They were on a mission. A top secret one that was going to eventually be very epic--and quite a show for all who witnessed it!

Lex wasn't here yet, and Seri didn't want to be sighted here for too long before someone, teacher or student, even shopkeeper, started to suspect something. Afterall, otherwise all her saving up would be for nothing, and this was gonna be BIG.

And finally she heard the tinkle of a bell, and she finally saw a familiar face!

"LEX!" she couldn't keep the excitement from her voice. This was gonna be awesome. Epic. They would talk about this for years. YEAH. "I think I have, EXTRA LARGE do you think?" Seri grinned back. She knew the answer. If they were gonna do this, it had to be BIG. There was no question. She then held a finger to her lips, "Don't speak too loudly, we don't know who's listening..." Seri raised her eyebrows in a knowing way. They could not afford someone finding out about their great plans. This one or the next. Or the one after that. But whispering was good. "But I think we're safe ere." It was cool. Plus, for now they seemed to be by themselves, which was always good conditions for secret discussions.

"Ummm...well...you see...I kinda want there to be a castle left over after we've had our fun. Plus your common room's in the dungeon mine's all the way up in the tower...if it's too big I might have to bunk with snakes--though sharing a common room with you doesn't sound so bad!" It really didn't, in fact it already had her thinking of another scheme they would have to plan and pull off. Bunking with snakes...now wouldn't that be interesting.

She lowered her voice at Seri's say so but couldn't help the giggle that escaped her lips. This felt so cool; like the were spies or something gathering supplies to go out on a mission--wasn't that what they were doing though?

After scanning the area briefly she agreed. "Yeah, we should be pretty safe. I think we're the only one's here at the moment." This provided the perfect atmosphere for planning and re-planning; there was always need for a plan B. Especially in a magic school where anything could go wrong at any second and completely throw them off guard. "I think we should grab some other stuff too." You know...for the Professors...

Well, you were certainly getting your moneys worth! "Hey could come down to our dorm! As long as they don't send you to Hufflepuff... naah, they wouldn't! I suppose, still it could have been fun.." she smiles mischeviously, Seri would be saving this idea for later. The idea of Lex with a sleeping bag and pillow in the same room as Ariana and Rora and West and Theo was kind of hilarious, though she herself was sleeping in those same conditions.

When Lex started giggling- Seri bit her own lip, and attempted to stay composed, but from her eyes you could tell she was giggling inside. She let out a small chuckle. This would be their first large-scale operation. It was perfect. It would all go to plan. The teachers would be fuming.

Grab some other stuff too? Seri looked down at the basket that she was also carrying, it had a small few products in it that she felt were 100% neccesary; fainting fancies and nosebleed nougats, and some puking pastilles. Perfect for when she needed to skive a lesson. But she knew more was needed. She whispered back to Lex, "And some stuff for the older kids.. Except for Kennedy, he's nice. He's nearly the only older kid I like. Actually I like Gwen. And Cassia and Bliss. But they're all. The majority are horrible and deserve punishment." Serenity declared.
We need something for the older years.

Come to think about it...the Ravenclaws might have been after them too seeing as they were also in the towers....two houses wanted them maimed was not the best thing in the world. Lex cringed at the thought of having to stay with the Hufflepuffs. She had nothing against them and in fact she found most of them to be very pleasant but she would never be able to see past the name 'puffer'. It was like a big block. "I'd more likely bunk with you, I hardly have any friends who are puffers...but then...you have Theo and West in your common room." That made her even less enthused about blowing up the towers while having their fun.

For now they would start small, setting off fireworks in the Great Hall wasn't all that bad and if everyone stood clear then no one would get hurt and everyone would have a good show. Heh, maybe some of the Professors would even come down to watch the show...see just how creative First years could be.

Lex followed Seri's stare and saw that she had already picked up a few other things. Her face lit up when she saw the puking pastilles. "I was especially thinking about this one too. We could probably sneak down to the kitchen one night and bake them into some cookies then hand them out to a few Professors." She paused and gave her a knowing look, hoping she would pick up on the fact that she was referring to Prof. Scabior, he deserved anything he got. "Mm-hmm, older kids too for sure!" She paused and listened to her list the few exceptions to that rule of older kids who deserved it. "Hmmm....but then you also have to consider Vivi, Vickers, Emm and a couple Gryffies that are really nice." Yup. Those were exceptions too, but everyone else was fair game.


Emerald was quietly working on shelving new supplies when she heard movement from the shop area. Did she have customers already? Twirling a brown strand of hair around a finger she tried to remember if she had turned the shop sign to 'open' in the window. She couldn't remember oh well best to check who was there looking for pranks.

Pulling away her brown locks into a loose knot as she walked the shopkeeper soon spotted her customers; two girls. Plastering on a cherry smile Emerald greeted them. "Hello girls, found anything you like?"
