Needless to say, it had been working so far.

With the number of times he'd been here, the man didn't need any sort of direction or guidance. It was as if his feet knew exactly where to go: past the signposts, past the large oak tree that had been bent oddly and across the bridge that ran over a pond. In fact, it was near this very pond that he liked to sit because it was partially secluded and didn't attract nearly as many loud toddlers as the larger one in the park did.

Long as no one called him the troll under the bridge, he was fine.

As usual, the thirty year old sat down on a ledge to pull off his shoes and socks and roll up the bottom of his jeans just high enough to avoid a soaking. Then, ever so carefully - was this a moment for constant vigilance? - he slowly dipped his big toe into the water. Just to test it, you know.

Jon walked through the park. He was working on presents for the twins, who were about to turn Seventeen. It was a scary idea really.. He'd been in their lives since they were eleven and now Tim and Ollie were about to be of age. He had to come up with special presents. Tim was easy enough to find a present for but Ollie was a little bit tougher.

The park would provide him a moment to think apart from the hustle and bustle of Diagon Alley. That's when he spotted a man who looked like he was about to put his feet in the pond. "Does that feel nice? I always imagined it to be kinda gross in there." Slimy things and whatnot. Not that the Creatures professor was against a gross feeling or two.
