SO... she was back in here. No hoody, no spy-ish moves... the shopkeeper probably wasn't going to recognize her. And she didn't really care. She was just so annoyed at that moment to care about anything.
"Hey.." She leant idly against the counter and slid a bunch of Knuts onto the table. "Those are the two Sickles I owe ya." She couldn't even force a smile. "Thank you for waiting. And..." she was urged to tell her not to sell Quidditch Equipment that could be used as weapons like beaters bats?. But then decided against it and sighed. "..just fine. Thanks." And headed for the door.

On her way out of Diagon Alley, Oceana decided to stop at Quality Quidditch supplies. Even though she wasn't allowed to have her own broom at Hogwarts since she was only a first year, she played Quidditch all the time at home and was an excellent Seeker. She grabbed a copy of Quidditch Through the Ages and Snitch: The magazine. Then, she made her way up to the front counter to pay.

Maggie saw a small girl waiting in line and waved her forward with a small smile, since she looked kinda nervous. Geez, why were all these first years so scared all the time?

Leo set the Twigger 101 on the front desk, very very gently, careful not to tweak a twig. Perfect. Now to wait for someone to ask the time-honored cashier question "Can I help you?" He was sure that was what they would say, or close to it. They all did.

When Helena heard the little bell tinkle over the door, she came out. The man who was in the shop seemed to know what he was looking for, so she waited to speak until he came up to the counter. "Hi, there. Will that be it today, sir?" she asked with a smile, pulling her auburn curls back from her face and tying them behind her head.

Leo worked hard to keep a stupid grin from entering his face as this beautiful woman didn't ask the expected question. He realized she had asked something, but couldn't really recall what it was exactly. He shook his head very slightly, to clear his thoughts. "Oh, yes, just the Twigger."

LaFresita 08-09-2011 03:02 PM

"Alrighty," said Helena as she began wrapping the beautiful broom he had brought to the counter. Maybe she should buy one for herself. Waaaaait, wasn't there some law with this? Oh, yes, you have to be of age. Well, this guy certainly was, so she didn't bother asking. "That'll be 12 Galleons even, if you please," she added as she finished wrapping it, giving the man a small, polite smile.

Leo fished the galleons out of his pocket, and counted out twelve, handing them to the woman. He gave her an irristible smile. "There you go." He all of a sudden could wait for forever to get home and go pick up Presley at the station. She certainly was beautiful. Leo grabbed the carefully wrapped broom, and waited for just a moment, then exited the store.

Penny walked into Quality Quidditch Supplies, with a set list on her mind...
Firebolt 600, broom servicing kit and a pair of Quidditch goggles..

Walking up to the counter, she waited for an assistant to come help her..

When a little girl came up to the counter, Helena turned and smiled at her. "Hi there, dear. What'll it be today?" She was extremely glad that this was turning out to be easier than she expected. And after summer things died down, she would be putting the final touches on the wedding.

Rose walked up to the counter holding her new Firebolt 600... her parents had given her enough money for a Nimbus 7003, but she was going to use 10 sickles more of her own money to get a Firebolt! Oh, and a Broomstick Servicing Kit!

Helena looked up and saw another girl with a broom in her hands. She smiled, but made a mental note to put out the new brooms they had just gotten out front as soon as possible. "Hi, dear, what can I help you with today?" she asked the girl.

Penny smiled at the lady, "Good morning, I wish to buy a firebolt 600 please, a broom servicing kit and some quidditch goggles also", said Penny, her purse already in her hand to make payment for her new broom..

Penny's dad had been so proud that she had made the house team, he gave her the money to pay for the new broom as a reward - Penny was very excited :woot:

'Hello!' Rose grinned. 'Um, can I please buy this Firebolt 600 and this Broom Servicing Kit?' Rose asked. Luckily, now she was a Second Year, she could have her own broom, as the school ones had all been broken...

"And what year are you?" Helena asked the two of them, not necessarily trying to group them together, but they both looked like they might be just starting school.

Penny looked at the lady, remembering her from last year, when she refused to sell her a broomstick..

"I'm going into second year when we return to school... My dad is buying me this broom because I am on the house team - He is right outside, if you need to ask him"

Penny wondered if this was the only quidditch shop in the country - she doubted she would trouble anywhere else...Considering she was 12yrs old now and stood at 5ft 4 inches and looked a lot older than she was...

This broom was supposed to be a treat - reward... Penny had been excited: now though, she just wanted to leave with her dad and go somewhere else - Her previous excitement dissipating quickly.

Ringo 08-13-2011 08:35 PM

Ronnie and her mum walked to the counter. Her mum set the Twigger 101 on the counter, then the Broomstick Servicing Kit, Keepers Gloves, Quidditch Goggles, A Beaters Bat, Quidditch Robes, the Rule Book, and Quidditch Through the Ages. Ronnie gaped. She then noticed her mouth was hanging open and she closed it. Yeesh, what if she wasn't even a Beater or Keeper? Oh well! Didn't matter, she could play with her brothers with all this! Her eyes boggled as her mum said "And I think that's it!" Ronnie was finally going to get a broom, since she was a second year :)

Alyssa moved forward to the counter and delicately placed the firebolt and other supplies on the counter. "Thank you so much for helping us", she said. "This place is awesome. I could stay here all day, but I don't think that my Mom and Dad would like that", she said with a grin looking up at her parents. "My parents are the best. They are buying me the firebolt for my 12th birthday even though it's not for another 3 more months. Aren't I lucky? I'm so sorry for blabbering. I'll keep quiet now so that you can tally up how much we owe you", she said meekly.

"Not necessary," Helena said with a smile as she wrapped the items and totaled them together on a piece of paper. Numbers had never quite been her thing. "That'll be 9 Galleons, 4 Sickles, and--- nope, that's it." Well, really it wasn't, but what was another half a Sickle?

Oh, goodness. This was going to take a lot of totaling, hmmm? Helena started on before the girl and her mother even got to the counter, soon enough so that, once she had wrapped the last item, she said, "18 Galleons, 11 Knuts, if you please!" Phew! Rough first day.

Ooooh, lookeh - Helena was already getting better than this. "It's quite alright, dear," she said with a smile at the girl's running of the mouth. Something small panged withing her. "That's 11 Galeons, 6 Sickles, and 26 Knuts, please," Helena said when everything was ready and packaged.

Alyssa grabbed the money from her purse, counted out the exact change and handed the money to the shopkeeper. "Thank you very much, Miss" she said. "I really appreciate your help". With that, she picked up her packages and followed her parents out the door. She was so excited. She now had her very own Firebolt.

Penny breathed a deep sigh of relief, looking at the now wrapped package containing her new broom..

Taking the gold and silver from the purse, she handed over the 9 galleons and 4 sickles...

"Thank you", Penny said, "I wish you a pleasant day", she added with a smile... Lifting the package off the counter, Penny turned and left the shop to meet her dad outside... her new broom safely under her right arm - Penny couldn't help but smile a little.

'I'm going into my Second Year!' Rose grinned at the lady. 'I need a new broom as the ones at school got trashed, and I need one to play as Chaser!' Rose grinned

"Fine, fine," Helena said with a small smile as she pulled out the broom and kit and wrapped them up for the girl. "8 Galleons, 10 Sickles," she said when she had totaled it up.

Nicki Granger 08-14-2011 08:13 PM

Alexis walked up to the counter, her arms full with what she had picked out. She placed them all on the counter. "When you have a spare moment, Miss, could you tell me how much all this costs? I'm ready to check out".

Kimalia walked up to the counter after being assisted, "Thanks for the help ma'am, I think I got everything I want." The Oakshaft broom, Broomstick Servicing kit, and the purple Quidditch goggles, yep, that was all she needed. Taking out her small muggle change bag that held her coins she asked. "How much will all this be?"
