"You seem like you don't frequent wizarding joke shops." What an observation, Gabriel. He was really on top of his game today.
Thank goodness he wasn't mad at her. Jina thought there were plenty of weirdos in Diagon Alley who would hex her for accidentally pranking them. It did not feel very safe here anymore; she heard that spooky things were happening in Wizarding Britain. She smiled back at the man, glad to hear that he was alright. She would have panicked if she found out that the telescope gave bruises (she had not learned how to heal bruises), but was blissfully unaware.
"I don't. I'm just here to buy some things for ... my friends," she nodded, surprised by his observation. Then she remembered how she freaked out over a small incident just a moment ago and facepalmed inwardly.
"You've got quite a list there. All for this store?" That was a joke, obviously. No one made a shopping list for Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes, you were supposed to be ~spontaneous~ and grab whatever tickles your fancy ... right?
