While not her usual hang out spot for the summer, boredom and anticipation had struck Sage and she was desperate to find something at least moderately thrilling to pass the time. She had been climbing the walls, literally, in alleys and those establishments that had bricks and stones that stuck out juuuust enough for her to get a grip on to hoist herself up...but apparently not all the other shopkeepers in the area found her parkour skills endearing and more than a few words had been exchanged which now left the budding seventh year with her feet on the ground. At least for the time being. She was going to save some coin up to catch the bus elsewhere test out some new terrain eventually. But no, alas. Today was just another day wallowing in anticipation for her first DATE and the summer romance ahead with Solomon.
Having grown bored of watching soon-to-be first years have their wand fittings, Sage had created her own mini challenge of sorts. While dad was busy being attentive to customers, Sage had collected about a dozen random wand boxes from the back and tiptoed through the shop and over to this brass delight. Obviously, having no spare coins to her own name seeing as she was saving it for other things, she had also slipped some sickles from the till. It wasn't technically stealing, you know. She wasn't a customer and the money was simply moving from one till to the other. No harm, no foul, nothing to see here.
"Hmmmmm," she hummed as she removed wand number one from its box and turned it over in her hand several times before giving it a thoughtful sniff. "Apple, definitely apple. Um....12 inches...with...with..." She squinted at the wand and attempted to balance it on her index finger. "Phe....onix feather....no...no no...hippogriff feather..."
