As his eyes wandered, he saw a few baby Claws in his midst. He smiled in their direction, but had no idea what their names were. He also spotted some of Hogwarts' Quidditch players, which was to be expected. After another minute of maneuvering through the other students, Jackson had found the gloves and began to try a pair on. Hm... These seemed to have a pretty good grip to them, but he was unsure still. He took them off and tucked it between his arm and torso while he tried on another kind. Oh. No, these were definitely not right. Taking them off, Jackson looked at the label and almost laughed when he realized that this second pair was for Gobstones. That made sense.

Trying the first pair on again, he decided that this was a good fit for him and he went back to walking the store. He had been having an internal debate about getting his own broom. On the one hand, he would probably only use it whilst a student... on the other hand, those school brooms weren't doing anything to help him either. Well, he thought to himself, if you get an alright one now, then that's two years of plenty of use. Then of course you can reevaluate. Feeling a little bold about this whole thing, Jack approached the brooms. They were quite impossible to miss of course. He had to admit, it would be really nice to have one of these new brooms than to have to hope for a decent one during class. Kye had a... Moon something? She had been a Chaser for her last two years at Hogwarts though, and had gotten a broom much higher end than he needed. Honestly, he felt a little too anxious to get on that Moonbrusher after seeing how fast Kye rode it during Quidditch games. He wondered how he would do on the Quidditch team, but he knew that Chaser was completely out of the cards for him.

Archer had dropped by the QQS (after asking someone in the alley where the nearest Quidditch shop was, of course) to replenish her broomstick servicing kit, which was nigh on depleted. Of course, this being the first time she had visited this store, she had no idea where said supplies were. But instead of asking someone, she had decided to take the opportunity to explore a little. After all, it couldn't hurt to get to know the place a little, right?

About the second or third aisle she went down, she ran into (almost literally, if she hadn't stopped when she had...) a guy staring at the brooms as if he was trying to decide which one to get. "I'd go with the Thunderbolt 6000." Of course, that was a biased recommendation from a proud owner, though she'd deny it if asked.
