It was that time of the year again: back-to-school shopping. He had learned last year to wait until all of the Hogwarts kids had come and gone. There really was no reason for him to have bought the things he needed for university so early anyway, and he did prefer the alley being on the quieter side and with not nearly as many children running about (no need to mention that he had been one of them not that long ago).
There were a handful of things on Gabriel Diggle's list. With one year of university under his belt and still no major selected, he was better prepared for what was actually needed. Quills, ink, and parchment were a necessity if one wanted to get through any course. So, naturally, Scribbulus was the first place he stepped into.
As he meandered over to the quill shelf, he recognised the lad that was already looking at them. They had graduated in the same year, no? He was in Ravenclaw, yeah? Wasn't his name ... Ean? Ivan? It was something like that. "I recommend the snowy owl or crow feathers. They're reasonably priced and pretty reliable. Though, if you've got a little extra to splurge, the flamingo and pheasant quills are quite nice."
