She had spent her whole life being matchy matchy with Clara. She had earned a few pretty bows and nice shoes.

The last thing on their list was her wand, though, and she had somehow managed to get her mother to agree to go by herself. Said it was a right of passage or something. Chloe was just happy to have a bit of freedom.

With a bright grin and wide eyes, she stepped in the shop with a bounce and started to look around.

Rooney was never going to be a fan of the summeer. It may have been the season that his birthday was in, and the only time that he could perform on stage with his old classmates, but the weather in Britain was a joke in the summer. Summer showers, his mother said. Light rain, his father said. Light showers of rain, his bottom said! The boy ducked into the closest shop as the HEAVENS opened and every inch of water in the world fell from it and onto his head. Blasted billywigs!

He was drenched.

And even drenched wasn't an appropriate word for the state of him right now.

Mama would liken him to a drowned rat. Daddy would just laugh and ask if he had tried to catch any rain drops on his tongue. Neither would make him laugh. Neither would impress him. Roo would just want a nice warm bath and a cup of hot chocolate for when he got out.

He muttered something about looking like the fountain had taken a disliking to him, and tried to shake the water out of his hair like Elphie did. But Elphie was a dog, and he wasn't. SHAKE SHAKE SHAKE. SHAKE IT OFF. BYE WATER. SHAKE.
