New Vaults and Vault Maintenance Counters Aligning both sides of the main hall are long counters made of a polished rich dark wood. Behind them sit goblins, witches and wizards alike, some appearing more welcoming than others, but all ready to service you for a fee that's been debated by some of the cheaper or less wealthy wizards and witches. |
WELL, thought albus, i suppose i've gone into the wrong area, as his pronouncement of needs was roundly ignored by the busy goblins. so he waited in line as patiently as possible, and tried not to fume at this delay. after all, he was a young fellow who was used to being waited on immediately,( at least until his parents were killed...) now, his father's wand in hand, and his family gold, he needed to get his account, get his things, and get to school, or lose his inheritance, he thought impatiently... |
Ethan found the line to get his vault and waited patiently but excitedly for one of the gobins to notice him. He couldn't help but think of home and all the things he had left behind. |
albus waited on queue, waiting to get his inherited wizard gold safely in the bank... |
Just before she entered Gringotts, Evelyn paused to...scowl. There was a reason she never really had an account here in the first place. Goblins. Merlin forbid if she had to talk to one, but with recent events, it was time to just suck it up and stick a smile on her face. The smile was more of a half-scowl though. Nevertheless, the young woman made her way over to the main hall, wand and small to medium sized box in her hands. This ought to be where she would be able to set up a new vault, right? Might as well wait in line for assistance to figure that out. It'd been quite awhile since she was here last. |
As Milly staggered into the main foyer, for a moment she was overwhelmed, with all that she had been through that day she wanted to sink to the floor and sleep, but keeping a firm hold on Dizzy, who liked to wander she trotted to a crowded area and leant against a wall panting and trying to keep hold of a struggling Dizzy. Milly had been given money by all her relatives and she needed an account but she wished she could go back to the cosy inn where she had stayed the night but she knew that she had even more to do the next day and would regret leaving this important job. She groaned in despair as Dizzy took one strong lurch for freedom, and succeeded, Milly resigned herself to having to run after her. With another sigh she broke into a reluctant run... |

Official Hogwarts Business Harold "Hops" Lagerty was as happy as usual when he entered the large Wizarding Bank's marble hall. The Hogwarts Board of Governor's Treasurer walked with a bounce in his step towards the withdraws counter. Even though he was in a good mood Lagerty was still dreading the trip down into the deep vaults. He was a man from a small Welsh fishing town, the depths underground were not for him. |
Ali both loved and hated the grandeur of the place, it reminded her of home. A home she no longer had. Shaking off the depressing thoughts she made her way to stand in line and waited to be called over by one of the goblins. Goblins. Of course they handled the money. Greedy little things, weren't they? They gave Ali the chills that was for sure. |

Deciding it wasn't necessary for the female Goblin to help him today on a rather routine withdrawal, the Board of Governors Treasure responded to the Gringott's worker's greeting. "Hello there, no keep just my wand for identification. Harold Lagerty, I'm here to retrieve some funds from the Hogwarts vault number 713 as Treasurer of the school's Board of Governor's." The man with salt-and-pepper hair smiled brightly at the man as he waited for his request to be processed. |

More movement. Joy. Quote:
And his knees. His poor, stiff knees, aching with every step. How he longed to be a young goblin again. Nostalgic sigh. |

Ratnik looked over the application, checked it against the wand, and filed it away. Then, it was onto the wand itself. He took his time inspecting it. He smelled it, ran his fingers along it, and even gave it a cautious taste with a flick of his tongue. After deeming everything right, he put the wand down on the counter for the man or child to take. "Follow," he grunted, hopping off his stool and walking around the counters and through a set of doors, not bothering to look back and make sure they heeded his instructions. Please post here next. :) |

And they were going to go get it now? "Alright, right behind you." Hops wasn't excited about going down there but he would be checking a big item off of his to-do list in the Alley once it was finished. |
This one has mommy issues in case you couldn't tell haha Quote:

Having some 'Peeves' problems. Hopefully the application got to you and just once Zoe walked, wide eyed, up to the New Vaults counter. This place was much bigger than she expected and everyone around her looked very serious. "Excuse me. I would like to open a new vault. Is this where I need to do that?" |
The Group Following Colin Colin efficiently walked to the counter. The faster they moved, the faster they'd be out of view. Goblins were suspicious creatures. Quizzit not so much. Especially since he was the goblin that discovered the vault had been emptied. But the others? They'd quickly turn their backs on their fellow employees if they thought there was something in it for them. So, naturally, a lot of commotion and official looking people weren't very good. Hence nearly everyone on edge. He waited a few feet away from the counter and waited for the others to join him. |
Apologies for the wait! SS was not being nice. XD With a nod to Dorian and a quick motion at Benjamin that he was welcome to follow her, Elinor swept along behind Colin. He walked as only a bank employee really could. Get them in, get them out, that seemed to be the motto of all of them. But Elinor kept a reasonable pace with him, a person of haste, herself. She knew that her presence, and her bag with the ministry seal stamped on it, was not exactly welcomed in view of every customer and employee. She shifted it to the other shoulder, burying the seal against her hip. In retrospect, she thought, she probably looked more like a bank robber at this point than anything else. Another stray thought wished that Dorian had an equally qualified partner to conduct questioning, so that he would have been free to come along with her. In the |
His joints ached. Quizzit Wizspigot's joints ALWAYS ached, but they were especially achy today. The disgruntled little goblin sat behind the counter and rubbed his stiff knees, adjusting his spectacles when Colin and some others approached the counter. "Can I help you, Mr. Roderick.. Mr. Roderick's.. friends?" the librarian-like goblin asked as politely as possible. Those people best have not been getting mud on the floors. He wasn't cleaning. Knees hurt too much and stuff. |
"Good day, Quizzit Wizspigot." Colin greeted with a smile. He held out his wand should the elderly goblin decide to examine it. And... straight to the point. "Official business I'm afraid." he said lowering his voice. He leaned closer to the counter and dropped it to a near whisper. "Vault 713." He then straightened back out. Any verifying questions today? Because his personal favorite was 'What does a Pheonix say?' Although, he'd be sad to change it were it to be used today. But maybe he seemed Colin-ish enough where that wouldn't be necessary. He'd let the goblin decide. He'd get to introducing the lady once they were in the cart. |
"Wand please," Quizzit asked immediately, wanting to verify that this was indeed Mr. Roderick before taking him up. Only Harold Lagerty had permission to go to that vault, and he most trusted bank employees, of course, so wand verification was absolutely necessary. Who was the lady he was bringing with him, though? He narrowed his eyes but still waited patiently. And tried not to get even weaker at his stiff knees. Vault 713 was.. not one of his favorites. |
Colin spun his wand between his fingers and held it out again. There it was in all it's glory. He cast a quick smile at the MLE employee before turning his attention back to the goblin. "She's with me." He'd give a proper introduction when they got into the cart. |
