Cole could practically hear his father’s voice ordering him to pick up the marbles and apologize to the shopkeeper. Before he could do either though a woman around his step-mums age came over and picked up all the marbles quicker that he could say Hogwarts. Surprised and confused at her kindness Cole looked over at her and mumbled out. "Thank you for helping me pick up the marbles ma’am. I was going to do it myself." Because he had good manners.

When the shopkeeper came over and asked him about the poster he was holding and not the marbles Cole was for a moment stupefied before he found his voice. "I'm sorry for knocking down the marbles mr shopkeeper. I must have nudged them when i reached up to get my poster. The marbles aren’t mine." His eyes went down to look at the poster still in his grasp when he heard the unmistakable voice of Carsyn. Sighing again but now inwardly he looked up at her and rolled his eyes at his cousin trying to not get irritated. "You know i don’t want to be seeker Carsyn, my heart is for keeper or chaser, but I’m definitely trying out for the team if Beauxbatons has quidditch so you’ll be stuck with me if we get chosen.." Switching his gaze to the shopkeeper Cole asked "Do you have any books on how to be a good keeper?"

She looked at him for the briefest of moments before saying "How old are you? My niece is just about to start at Hogwarts." She didn't know anyone who would be going, seeing as she'd been living in a mostly muggle town.

Turning back, Lou smiled in response to the Shopkeeper's thanks. "It wasn't a problem. I'm Louisa, by the way. I just moved into the Leaky," she said, seeing as she had just moved into the Alley she figured introducing herself to her fellow residents wouldn't hurt. "Really? That would be great, thank you. There's some stubborn cobwebs in my attic, perhaps there's something in there about it." She picked the book up and tucked it under her arm before replying again to the shopkeeper. "Quidditch Through the Ages would be good, I think. I'll take one." She had wrapping paper at home, and a card already filled in.

Hearing part of their conversation however, it was clear she was a Quidditch player. "Hello there, do you need any assistance?"

Now it made sense, he would have to place an charm to prevent the marbles from spilling again after. "Don't worry about it, young lad." The mess was saved for now. As for his question on books, "We have '30 Ways to Fly' which details maneuvers and other tricks you could use for Keeping among other player positions." It was a great book.
Was this some sort of pun? Marbles? Cause Carsyn wanted to laugh about that. Her gaze flicked between Cole and the two adults, back to Cole and she shook her head. "We're in the same house, Cole Vance. I'm pretty sure I can handle being on your team. I just forgot what position you like." So right now, she just had Cordelia for seeker competition, which definitely made Carsyn feel guilty cause the girl was younger, but she'd have her moment to shine after she graduated....

Not sure if the older woman was talking to her or Cole, Carsyn chimed in. "Fourteen. We're both fourteen actually," She gestured to herself and Cole. "Gonna be fourth years. And we're totally in the best house." Mmhm.

Oh. The older male must have been the shopkeeper for here. Assistance? "Uh... yea... I was wondering... if you had anything for guaranteed success as a seeker?" Because it was pretty prudent that she make the team, you see. Goals.
