It was kinda scary and exciting all at the same time.

Once they had arrived and walked in though...the scary part disappeared and she was EXCITED ALL OVER AGAIN YEAH.

She beeeeamed at all the family members that had come with her and even at the other kids here to and - GAAAAAAAASP.

"NO ONE can be matched with my wand, Hassan! 'Cause it'll only want me and why would it match with anyone else when it could be matched with me." No way the wand that was perfect for her would choose someone else. No way.

Grinning at him again, she bounded forward to the measuring tape area.

She could, right? And she could use her biggest, best puppy dog eyes to make this happen. So really, she had no reason to pout at all! And so she sucked her bottom lip back in and hurried over to Hassan, attaching herself to his leg, as Abey had his other side covered. They were a Botros family sundae and Alanna was the cherry on top!

"You'll take me to get my wand someday too, right Hassy?" Junia glanced up with hopeful eyes, her gaze traveling from her older cousin to her sister sitting on his shoulders. Maybe he'd even take 'Lanna and Aaron when they were old enough.

"But I just shined it, 'Lanna. Y'gotta be extra careful if I let you wear it." Which, because she was the best older sister in the entire wizarding world and universe, she would. The eight year old handed it over to Hassan who could hand it to Alanna, Junia's eyes watching all the while lest it should fall. "I don't have one for you, Abey, but you can hold my hand if you want." Because holding a princess's hand was just as good as a tiara, honestly. 'Reka could hold her hand too if she wanted.

Sooooo, now that ~~the birthday girl~~ Rula was in, all they had to do was wait here before they were allowed to go have some ice cream. Eureka, being the always active girl she was, kept pacing and jumping from a spot to another avoiding the crowd. She caught Junia giving up her tiara for Alanna then, and she approached them both. "You can have one of my pygmy puffs." She knew no one was as excited about them (or creatures, in general) as much as she was, but she relentlessly tried to force their presence on everyone. Because her daddy said she could.

Ever so gently he knocked his head against Alanna, his dark eyes on his little brother who's hand he held just as tightly. "You both can have a wand. They have sparkler ones in each Hogwarts house." Hassan was prepared to buy one for each of his cousins and a polish kit for Rula. Mostly for the holster but also because he wanted her to be able to take care of her wand.

He was going to spend a hell of a lot of money today on these kids, it helped that all their folks had chipped in when they heard what he was doing.

'Please' and 'Thank You' were magic words, mhm, her Mummy always said so. Alanna looked down at him before turning her attention to Hassan again. He'd have to say yes now. It was magic.

So engrossed was she in everything Junia began to say about the tiara that she didn't notice Rula darting off to get her wand. Tiaras were serious business and you had to pay extra special attention when you were being allowed to wear one. The brightest of smiles flashed across the 4 year old's face once it was extended toward her and her little fingers wiggled about excitedly in a grabbing motion. "I'll take GOOD care of it, promise promise promise." That was a magic word too and you couldn't break it so Juni knew she meant serious business. Alanna wasted no time in plopping it on her head. "I look like a princess now?"

The little girl leaned forward a bit, nearly climbing a bit on Hassan's back as she did to get a better look at Reka's puffs. She wasn't sure if she wanted to TOUCH one but they were SO FLUFFY and CUTE. Alanna didn't take her eyes off them til she felt Hassan's head knock lightly against hers but it was what he said next that had her wiggling.

"Wow!" Immediately she shrunk into herself, only now aware of how loud she'd just been. It took her a moment to recover. "A wand? For me and Abey? Do they have pink?" She didn't know the houses but she DID want a wand anyway.

Rula was going, going, gooooone. Except not really gone because Abey could see her right over there, getting measured up for her wand. He kept his eyes on her a little longer, intending to watch her all the way up to the counter, but his attention was caught by someone else just a second later. Junia, offering to let him hold her hand. Abey nodded, still super shy even though he was in the presence of a whole ton of his family, and wasted not a moment in reaching out to hold onto his older cousin's hand.

It seemed that not a second later, Eureka was there, talking to Junia about pygmy puffs and offering her one. Abey thought those little things were cute, but he wasn't quite as interested in the creatures as Eureka, and so looked back to Hassan instead, just as he mentioned...

!!!!!

"A sparkler wand..." Abey repeated, whispering the words back to himself like Hassan had just offered to get him the greatest toy or the tastiest ice cream ever. A wand he could use to make sparks. This was the best day of his life. Abey glanced up at Alanna to check her reaction, and to make sure that he wasn't reacting wrong, then looked back to Hassan, a big giddy grin on his face.

"Can we really?" His eyes SHONE, full of WONDER. "Thank you Hassan!" Abey hugged his big brother's arm (with some difficulty, as he was still holding both Hassan and Junia's hands). "One for the house that you and Grandpa were in?" He knew they were in the same house, and probably at the same time too, because they were both old, right? But though he knew nothing else about the House or the House colours, Abey knew that that was the one he wanted. For definite.

"I'm sure they're both fine, thanks." he replied with a half raised eyebrow. "Unless you've been stepping in things I should be concerned about?"

In which case, radioactive spiders would be preferred. Being a superhero would sort of be cool. Or a ninja. But he was pretty sure you had to train to be one of those, they didn't just happen.

Fine? Okay, well... that was good.

Ahem. Jake nodded and, having noticed the raised eyebrow, realised he must have been acting a little... odd? Maybe? So, uh. Yeah. He made a decent attempt to reeeein that in a little, and sorta... fixed his jacket real casual like.

"I..." ... Apparently, Jake didn't know how to respond to that. He blinked at the man once, twice... three times... then tried to reeeeal subtly glance down at his own shoe, angling it as though to check the underside. This would be a real bad time to discover he HAD stepped in something concerning, wouldn't it? Like cruppy poop, or some exploding potion.

...

"Nope. I think you're good. Nothing concerning here." Jake looked back up again and gave a smile, like this was some real fantastic news to be imparting. Mystery dude may have gotten his foot stomped, but no feet were exploding today. Not because of Jake, at least.
