When they’d left for school without her, it had left a hole at their usually loud and busy home. It didn’t quite feel like home without them there but now that they were coming back and she was on the cusp of actually going herself, things were looking up.
With the Luck family reuniting coming in a few days though, the youngest of the family (by mere seconds!) was out and about, wandering the Alley with her nose pressed in a book and a smile on her freckly little face, eager to explore. What to do though…That was when her nostrils were assaulted by the almost sickly smell of sweetness coming from a sweet shop. The perfect welcome home present for her siblings!
Slipping her book under her arm, Ingrid slipped through the open door and looked around, slightly bewildered at how much the shop really had to offer. There couldn’t be a different type of sweet in each of the jars, could there? Maybe a pick n mix would be the best idea but…how would she get to the sweets at the top? “Excuse me, how do I get the sweets from the top?” . It wasn’t like she wanted to ask a random boy (Evan) but there really was no one else around at the moment. Sure, he didn’t exactly look like he knew what to do either, the way he was just standing there and staring at them but she had to ask someone. “Are you okay? You’re kind of staring at them”, a small smile on her lips now as she watched, a few feet away from the boy. He was continuing to just stare at the shelves, unable to decide exactly what to start with. He had tried the Sugar Quills with Solana, and those were honestly quite good so he grabbed a couple more of those to put in his stash. And... lemon drops sounded tasty, so he grabbed some of those as well. Now Bertie Bott's... well, those just sounded like they could be fun as a game but as a legitimate sweet snack? He wrinkled his nose slightly before deciding to pass on them. Hmm... but what else could he try? Maybe the thing called... Blood pops? Although, that also sounded kind of gross...
He was lost in his decision making on the very important decision of candy, when he jumped slightly hearing another voice. Evan turned noticing a girl who looked around his age. How to reach the top shelf? E blinked slightly, looking from her to waaaay up where there was another row of candies he hadn't even looked at yet. "Umm, I'm not actually sure... maybe there is someone taller around you could ask?" Hopefully he'd be tall ONE day. Today was unfortunately not that day... "I could help you look for someone?" He hated being unhelpful, but finding someone else was really all he could assist with.
And then she was asking if he was... okay? Right. Yes, he was staring and definitely looking lost. All of these new things were just so... new! "Oh, um... yes. I'm... muggle born I think is what it's called? I was just trying to decide what to try from the shelves!" It really would have been nice if his family had not kept him so in the dark about the magical world Noah had been living in so he didn't look so SILLY. Like right NOW. "What's your favorite?"
