| Lovely™ | Captain Hurted | Ariana's Bane | Resident Antagonist | Unparalleled Delight This had been the thing Daxton had been looking forward to the most... maybe. He had been eagerly anticipating buying his books too, so he could learn as much as he could about magic, as soon as he could. But once they'd bought as many school books as their budget had allowed, and he'd had the chance to read through them all, Daxton's attention had turned instead to the all-powerful magic wand.
The thing was, now he was here, he was quite certain that he didn't like this shop in the slightest. Between all the things to take in, and having to manoeuvre around the various other people milling about and trying not to let anyone so much as brush up against him, Daxton felt really quite stressed out. He couldn't even relax once he reached the more open area, especially when he saw tape measure, floating menacingly in wait.
... Was that going to touch him?
It looked like it was going to touch him.
Daxton felt the anxiety rise, but stepped forward into the measuring area anyway. He. Wanted. That. Wand.
The boy took a deep breath, tensed right up, and watched the tape measure get to work. This, at least, was better than an actual person getting right in his personal space to do the measuring, but somehow it felt almost the same. He wanted to badly to close his eyes and go somewhere else in his head while the thing flitted about him, but after a few moments he instead stared straight ahead, fists clenched by his sides.
When Daxton chanced another glimpse at the tape measure - it was taking far too long for his liking - and saw that it was definitely repeating a measurement it already had (elbow to wrist, left arm), he batted the stupid thing away impatiently. After giving it another whack with the back of his hand for good measure, Daxton turned away and made his way towards the front counter... before the tape measure could try wrapping itself around his head again and he was forced to set the bloody thing on fire.
