But this is all she said as Sloane looked over the wands on display with wonder and awe. Okay, yeah. It was kind of sweet or whatever. It almost brought Zor back to her own wand-fitting. Almost. She wasn't sentimental, that was her WIFE.
Ahem. "Only if--" she started, halting quickly when she noticed the embarrassment in the girl's eyes. Damn. Zoryn reaaaaaally wanted to tease. But the Faith-sounding voice in her head kept her from doing so. And instead, she nudged the girl and offered an encouraging sort of look. Or whatever. "You could have a wand like this, yeah. It'll have to choose you though. The wand finds the wizard." She explained, far more gently than Zor was ever used to. "You'll walk up, and they'll take measurements or whatever," she wouldn't go into detail because a) that was the boring part and b) it'd be funny to see how Sloane reacted to the flying measuring tape. "They'll give you some wands to try out, but most of them will be total duds. And you might make a cabinet or two explode before the right one finds you -- that's the best part." Destroying a century old shop. Ah. The joy it brought her. She had a What? Sloane quickly clawed at her face quickly to get rid of the sweaty moustache, only to realise that it must have already dried. The scowl across her face was brief and fleeting but it portrayed the right amount of contempt.
Anyway...
Not knowing too much about how she was actually going to get a wand, Sloane turned, her expression betraying her interest as her face lit up with excitement. "But how does a wand find a wizard? Did yours find you? What happened? How did it find you?" the questions flowing from her one after another quickly now as she got more and more excited. Very un-Sloane like.
Just as quick however, Zoryn answered some of her questions and this left her even more excited! [B]"You what?! No way..."[B] Zoryn was not cool enough to blow a cabinet explode, was she? Eying her suspiciously, she continued “Are you lying to me? That doesn’t sound like it would be allowed. You’d be like, thrown out before you even started Hogwarts.” Neither Faith or Zoryn had mentioned anything about being thrown out of Hogwarts when they’d talked about the school before however so maybe they hadn’t thrown her out for it.
Unsure of what exactly she should do next, Sloane turned towards the counter and hesitated for a moment, unsure if she wanted to go alone or with Zoryn. “I can just walk up and they’ll measure me. That’s it?” She wasn’t nervous. Of course not! She just needed…confirmation of her theory, that’s all. |
