| | |  Sugarplum's Sweet Shop
 Every child in Wizarding Britain knows that Sugarplum's is the place to be. You can smell the sticky sweetness and bursts of flavour as soon as you walk through the door, the little candy themed bell, enchanted to transform into a different type of candy every hour, will tinkle merrily to announce your arrival, but we won't be surprised if you don't notice it, after all your eyes have a rainbow of delectable sweets to feast on.
Shelves among shelves of different types of wizarding sweets are ranged in aisles before you. The shelves stretch up to the roof and big glass jars display every type of candy imaginable. Can't reach? No worries! Just say the type of candy out loud and the jar will float down to you, ready to scoop out the required amount. Everything is labeled, so it shouldn't be too hard to find what you're looking for. There are a stack of baskets to the right of the last shelf - go ahead and grab one if you need it! There are four gumball machines near the exit to the sweet shop. If you have any knuts in your pocket that you are just dying to get rid of, why not buy a few gumballs with them? All you have to do is place two knuts inside the little slot, turn the knob, and watch as the gumball travels down the maze and to the little compartment at the bottom.
Once you've finished your shopping, you need to escort yourself to the check out counter located on the right side of the store. The shopkeeper can usually be found behind the counter, scooping and weighing sweets for the customers ahead of you.
This shop is NOT STAFFED and has a NPC shopkeeper.

Originally Posted by Nordic Witch  The place was more packed than Bella really liked which made her feel a little queasy and nervous and that alone made her quicken her steps a little as she headed toward her mother’s safe side. She pushed the feeling back though as Tadgh did his best to explain what a step stool was to her. Bella was just going to take his word for it, it was easier than admitting she still didn't understand what he meant. "I understand what a step stool is now, thank you." she mumbled kindly as she spotted her mother’s familiar figure by the liquorice section. Raising her voice Bella called "Mom, can you help me and Tadgh get some chocolate frogs packets down, they are so high up?"
Sophie heard more in the single word 'mom' than Bella probably knew. Her daughter was feeling a little nervous in the packed shop she guessed. "Of course I can assist you and your new friend dear." Turning her attention to the boy by her daughter’s side she greeted "Hello Tadgh was it? It’s nice to meet you. I’m Isabella’s mother, Sophie." Bella wanted to sink through the floor. Why did mum always have to be so correct and polite all the time? Hoping Tadgh understood she mouthed 'sorry' to him before she answered his earlier question proudly. “My mum was a Gryffindor and my dad was a Slytherin and my grandparents were Hufflepuffs I think, but honestly we’ve got all the houses on our family tree.” Tadhg didn't like crowded places, he was a bit claustrophobic and you could tell it was getting to him. He wasn't the best at explaining things, but boy his age was? He was confused as well cause where he was from it wasn't called that but his mother explained it to him. " I'm not the greatest at explaining things sadly, I'm sorry. " Seeing his mother he quickened his pace towards her who wasn't far from Bella's mother as well.
Tadhg nodded. " Yes ma'am, very nice to meet you Mrs. Sophie, thanks for the help." Tadhg looked back at her before mouthing 'It's okay' back at her, he knew how parents were. "That's so cool, I wouldn't mind what house I was in, all of them would be cool!" Seeing his mother he groaned. "Tadhg sweetie you okay? Seeing Bella she smiled. " Oh hello there, nice that my Tiger made a little friend I'm Saoirse." Tadhg blushed at his mother calling him Tiger but it been a name she called him since he was a baby.

Bella was in her mind not any way near being a claustro whatever it was called, but she could admit to herself and her closest family that she liked it when you didn’t need to elbow your way through a crowd. Throwing a glance at Tadgh she replied. "Apology accepted." Obviously, what else was Bella going to say with two mums looming over them?
Sophie beamed at the young boy. "It’s no problem at all." To her daughter Sophie mouthed 'behave' before she disappeared off to get a handful of chocolate frog packets. It didn’t take long before Sophie was back with the candy. Bella had in the meantime agreed with Tadgh’s statement about the houses, but not totally. "Yes, all the houses would be cool to be in, but I’m hoping I’ll be either a snake or a lion like my parents we're."
Turning her eyes up at Tadhg's mother she smiled sweetly. "It’s nice to meet you Mrs Saoirise." Could she say Tiger too since he was now by his mother’s standards her friend? Thought was though forgotten when Bella’s mum handed over the chocolate frog packets to her and Tadhg. Bella wished she could open the packet right then and there and see what card she had gotten. To Tadhg she asked "Do you collect the frog cards too?"

Kitty was wearing a skirt today—his favorite skirt, to be precise. It was a soft lavender and it was absolutely the best thing he'd ever found in a Muggle thrift store. There was no way he wasn't gonna wear it as much as possible, not only to show people the brilliance that was this skirt, but also because he looked damn good in it.
He flounced into Sugarplum's with a smile, as per usual—he had to come back to restock his hard candy supply. He was one of the shop's most frequent customers and biggest buyers because he had absolutely no self control. But sweets good.
He opened out his bright pink cat-decal tote bag with a flourish, and then started shoveling in as many individually wrapped hard candies as possible, making sure to specifically get a good number of butterscotch flavored and strawberry flavored ones. | |

He opened out his bright pink cat-decal tote bag with a flourish, and then started shoveling in as many individually wrapped hard candies as possible, making sure to specifically get a good number of butterscotch flavored and strawberry flavored ones. Yassi had come to Diagon Alley in search of a new journal. This, of course, meant that she would eventually find her way to a shop that sold stationary. In the meantime, however, she chose to venture inside every other store. Naturally. The sweet shop had a particularly inviting display and before she could stop herself, Yasmin had already found herself well within the store. Slowly she would make her way to find a journal.
For now, she lost herself among the vibrant displays, clinging both to her satchel and the vague scent of honey. Though the sweets here were nothing like those in Yazd, Sugarplum's had a jovial charm that Yassi couldn't help but admire as she made her way through the various aisles. Perhaps she could find something to send little Rod. He wasn't so little any more, but Yasmin was certain he would still appreciate a sugary treat. She would find him something he hadn't ever tried before.
As she turned the corner, Yassi found herself smiling warmly at the sight of candies being shoveled into a bag without shame, dancing their way into a bright tote bag. "Oh, your bag!" Yassi lifted her arms well above her head. "It's lovely," though she was quite partial to cats and perhaps a little biased in this regard. "Did you make it yourself?" She pushed her shades up to her forehead, revealing her warm, brown eyes and reached out to lightly brush her knuckles against the tote in admiration.

She pushed her shades up to her forehead, revealing her warm, brown eyes and reached out to lightly brush her knuckles against the tote in admiration. Kit turned to her and smiled brightly. She was so pretty! AND she liked his kitty tote! She was an amazing person in his book already. "Well, first off, can I just say that you look absolutely stunning," he said, gesturing to her person. "Love those shades as well, you'll need to tell me where you got them," he grinned.
He looked down at his tote and sighed a bit. "But, sadly, no, I wish I could make something this amazing. I actually thrifted it. You can find some pretty cool stuff in Muggle thrift stores, you know." This was a tidbit of knowledge that a lot of wizards hadn't picked up on, which he was kind of shocked about. There were some amazing finds in there for cheap—sometimes you'd even come across a magical item, which Kitty kinda figured was a little dangerous, but he never bought it up if he didn't want it. Whoopsies.
"I'm glad you like it, though—some people give me looks when I use it, but I just think it's neat! Pink and cat! It's a match made in heaven," he said, finishing up his shoveling—he had been doing it for a good portion of the conversation, but now the bag was a little less than full and he thought that seemed like enough candy. | |

The bright bag was nothing compared to his brilliant smile; one so contagious that Yassi soon found herself unable to contain her own. "Oh-h-h, you are so kind," she brought a hand to her heart, bowing her head and waving her other hand in front of her (not to dismiss the compliment, but rather as a gesture of humility). "You do?" She must have been blushing, though her complexion hid it well. "I found them by chance! In a bazaar, when I was visiting my sister and her family in Isfahan," if she sounded at all surprised, it was because she still could not believe her fortune in stumbling upon them. Among the junk, one could find treasure, but it took patience (and, often, several hours).
"I never have such luck," she admitted, despite some clear frustration in this regard, her voice was still light and full of life. "You must have an eye for good finds, there is no other explanation!" Again, she waved her hand around as she spoke. She liked him already. The British, they were usually taken aback by her exuberance.
And far too judgemental, as evidenced by what the gentleman before her explained of his bag. Yassi lowered her hand to slip it inside the pocket of her trousers as she listened. "It is neat!" She agreed, her hand once again shot up into the air as if to punctuate the declaration. "Perhaps they are not cat people," Yassi offered. "Though if I may be honest," she started with a coy grin. "I do not understand the need to differentiate between cat people and dog people." Why were people so quick to draw divisive lines? Could they not find common ground in their shared love of animals, rather than force others to take sides? Arbitrary dichotomies only served the purpose of division and really, what good did it do to divide?
Though if anyone asked, Yassi was a proud cat person.

Arbitrary dichotomies only served the purpose of division and really, what good did it do to divide?
Though if anyone asked, Yassi was a proud cat person. Kitty quickly figured out that she was very physically emotive and he loved that! This lady was super pretty, had a good sense of style, was super expressive, liked his bag and was in a candy store? That's, like, a quintuple win! He clasped his hands together and inhaled in excitement. "Ooooooo, I love unexpected finds! They're always the most fulfilling, aren't they?—When you stumble across something you really love and are able to take it home!" He sighed wistfully. "Where is Isfahan, though? I gather it's not anywhere close, huh?" he said, slightly downtrodden. He really wanted those sunglasses...
He scrunched up his shoulders with appreciation. "Awh, thanks! Well, if you picked out those sunglasses you must have a good eye as well! We can go thrifting together one day, and with our powers combined we're sure to find you something great!!" he said, grinning and clapping a bit. He had never gone thrifting with anyone before, but he just knew it would be fun. He was already mapping out the different spots they could hit on their hunt—lots of good thrift spots in London, with an ever-rotating stock because of the population.
He blushed a bit at her exclamation, then giggled. She was so great with her hand movements!!!! Lovely woman!!!! "Yes, I totally agree. Cats and dogs are both adorable furry animals and who cares who likes whichever one better! Unity for the masses!!!" he exclaimed and laughed.
He, too, however, was a cat person.
A thought formed in his head and he immediately acted on it. Kitty pulled out his wand from his hip holster and pointed it at his bag. With a silent flick he was catching an exact replica of his tote, and then handed it to the nice lady. "Here—it might dull or fray faster, but I'd say you'll get a good couple years out of it," he said smiling. "Oh, and I'm Kittredge, by the way, but my friends call me Kit or Kitty. Whatever works!" | |

His energy was delightful and Yassi, yet again, found herself unable to contain her smile. "Oh, absolutely," she replied, moving her head this way and that. She would have said more on the matter had he not asked about Isfahan. "Unfortunately it is not, but with magic... Everything is close enough, I suppose," she replied with a voice filled with longing. "Isfahan is a city in my home country, Iran." One of her favorite cities, though nothing could ever compare to Shiraz.
Again, Yassi found herself perk up with excitement. "I would love that! I always feel a little lost when I venture to the thrift stores on my own." It was something that couldn't be helped, unfortunately. It was never quite as fun doing things on her own either, though this is something she had overcome in her time here. "I can already tell you are a wonderful shopping partner." She meant it too. With his energy and clear sense of style, it was difficult to imagine otherwise.
"Look at us, we are starting our own movement!" She doubled over in laughter. To think, she had only come to Diagon Alley for a journal!
It took her a few seconds to recover from her laughter, but when she did she looked at her company quite curiously. "Ooh, Ooh," upon the realization as to what he was doing, Yassi's whole expression shifted. He was melting her heart. What a sweet gesture! "Thank you, this is so kind." She took the duplicate from him graciously, looking at it with sheer delight, before slipping it through her arm so that she could take out her own wand and perform the very same spell on her shades. "A trade," she laughed as she held out the duplicate pair of glasses for him and slid her own back on. "It is so very wonderful to meet you, Kitty." Yassi smiled warmly, bowing her head ever-so-slightly. "I am Yasmin, but friends call me Yassi." And oh, did she hope they could stay friends.

Kitty steeled himself at her words—yes, with magic it couldn't be that hard to go. He could Portkey there sometime! And then, once he knew what it was like, he could Apparate. Easy peasy! He nodded. "Yes, you're right! It's not that far." Physically, though, it definitely was. "Ooooo, Iran? That's definitely pretty far. What is it like? When did you move here?" He always had lots of questions about foreign countries.
He giggled at her compliment. She was super sweet!!!! Kitty really loved this dynamic they had. "Awh, thanks! Okay we will definitely go thrifting someday! I know all the best spots around London, so we can make a whole day of it!" he grinned and squealed a little. "I'm excited! I've never gone thrifting with a friend before."
YES! A movement! "A cat-and-dog-person movement! An every-animal-person movement! This is how the world was meant to be!!" he laughed.
Kitty's eyes lit up as she duplicated her glasses. She took them from her gingerly, hopping from foot to foot excitedly. "Oh-em-gee!!!! Thank you so much!" he giggled giddily. He put the shades on his face and jumped up and down and clapped his hands. "AH! They're so lovely!!!" He sighed as he released his excitement. "It's so nice to meet you, Yassi! I'm so happy we met, you're literally the best!" And Kitty meant that completely—she was one of the greatest people he'd met in a while. | |

YES! A movement! "A cat-and-dog-person movement! An every-animal-person movement! This is how the world was meant to be!!" he laughed.
Kitty's eyes lit up as she duplicated her glasses. She took them from her gingerly, hopping from foot to foot excitedly. "Oh-em-gee!!!! Thank you so much!" he giggled giddily. He put the shades on his face and jumped up and down and clapped his hands. "AH! They're so lovely!!!" He sighed as he released his excitement. "It's so nice to meet you, Yassi! I'm so happy we met, you're literally the best!" And Kitty meant that completely—she was one of the greatest people he'd met in a while. It did feel far sometimes though, that much was certain enough. Especially without having her siblings nearby, the distance could feel endless some days. "Oh, it is wonderful! You would love it!" How did one even begin to explain the country as a whole? "Full of friendly people and delicious food!" Kabob was easy to find anywhere, but it was difficult to find Fesenjān done better anywhere else. That was a hill Yassi was willing to die on. Not to mention, the way foreigners were received in her country was unmatched. Personal invitations into someone's home, warmth, and hospitality. It was a visitor's paradise. Yasmin missed home dearly. Perhaps she would take some time off of work soon in order to visit. "But oh, I moved after secondary school. Not very far at first," she explained, pausing only then to add, "it is easy to travel between Istanbul and Shiraz. But I am hoping to stay in the UK for much longer." Again she smiled warmly, tucking strands of loose strands of hair behind her ears.
His energy was contagious and Yassi could feels herself feeding off of it. Oh, she clapped in delight. "Yes! That would be lovely, Kitty! Do you have a phone? Can I give you my number?" She hadn't ever gone thrifting with a friend either, though perhaps that had to do with the fact that she did not have many friends here. Hopefully something that would soon change. Already, she had felt she made a friend in Kitty.
Again, she found herself doubling over in laughter, the sounds echoing throughout the store. "Ah, I have missed this kind of energy!" She exclaimed, throwing her hands into the air.
She bowed her head, gracefully in reply to his gracious thank you. "And even more lovely worn by you," she added with conviction. "Ah-h-h, I'm also so happy!" She really was. It had been a long time since she had met someone so exuberant. "We must plan to meet again! Do you work near here?"

Friendly people and delicious food were extremely appealing to Kit, so he was happy to hear they were abundant in Iran."Ooo, sounds like my kinda place! I'll definitely have to visit, then." He grinned when she said she wanted to stay in the UK. "Well, great! That just means I'll get to see a lot more of you!"
Kit nodded enthusiastically. "Of course!" Another thing he loved about this skirt? Pockets! You don't see many skirts with pockets, do you? He pulled his phone out of one and opened it, handing it to Yassi to put her number in. "I'll definitely text you so we can sort out the details!"
Kitty bounced on the balls of his feet. "I'm glad!! Normally people can't really keep up with me, but now I know someone who can!" He put his hands in the air and clasped hers excitedly.
Kit's smile grew wider at her compliment first, and then her question. He giggled and spun dramatically so his skirt would fan out a bit. "Well, I actually just got hired at the Ministry as a Sentinel!" he said, then sighed contently. "I've been wanting to be a Sentinel since I was six, so this is literally a dream come true!" he said, spinning again. "What about you?" | |

"I've been wanting to be a Sentinel since I was six, so this is literally a dream come true!" he said, spinning again. "What about you?" Again, Yasmin found herself smiling from ear to ear, the warmth practically radiating off her now. It was such a treat to find such kind souls. Sometimes she worried for the state of the world, but when she came across people such as Kitty, she knew everything would be just fine.
"Excellent!" She chirped enthusiastically before eagerly punching the numbers into his phone and handing it back to him. "You must send me a message so that I can save your number as well." This, she was sure, went without saying, but Yassi thought to say it anyway lest he worry that she did not feel as enthusiastically as he did. His next words hit a soft spot. Oh, he was as sweet as halva. "I feel so similarly, Kitty!" Especially at the office. Yassi always worried she was too much for people, it was very difficult to tell.
"Oh-h-h!" As if it were even possible, her smile grew tenfold. "You are kidding!" This was even more wonderful than she had first thought. "I am also working at the Ministry! I am an apparation instructor, in the Department of Transportation," she flung her arms into the air again. "Well we must take tea breaks together and you can tell me more about this lifelong dream of yours! There is a little café on the same floor as your department, I was trying to keep away," here she paused, looking around before leaning in as if about to share a secret. "I have been collecting too many of the plants they post for adoption." It was becoming an issue. Her cubicle looked much like one of the level 4 greenhouses. "But now that I have another excuse to venture over..."

"But now that I have another excuse to venture over..."
Kitty took his phone back from Yassi. "Of course, I'll send one right now!" Kitty typed up a text and sent it:
Hey!!! This is Kitty!!!! 
"There!" Kitty managed a small smile. "Well, now we can keep up with each other! I feel like our energies match super well," he giggled. People never disliked him (as far as he knew, anyway) but he could tell some of them thought he was a bit much. He didn't think that would happen with Yassi.
Kit gasped a bit and clapped his hands again. "Oh, that's wonderful!!! We'll be able to see each other so often!" He giggled, thinking of the fun they would have working together at the Ministry. "My dad's told me about the little café and it seems adorable!! I think I'm going to have to curb my plant-buying impulses as well," he chuckled a bit. "Oh, I just can't wait to start, it's going to be so much fun!!" It wasn't going to be as fun as he thought. | |

"Oh, I just can't wait to start, it's going to be so much fun!!" It wasn't going to be as fun as he thought. Yassi smiled widely, perking up even more as she felt the buzz of her phone. "Ah, I am so glad to have met you, Kitty. You radiate the kindest aura," she meant it too. It was not every day that Yasmin felt such a connection. But to feel such a way upon first meeting someone was special, indeed.
"I am on level six, anytime you need anything or would like to chat, please come find me or send me one of those funny little flying memos," she hadn't ever had the opportunity to use those for fun - and what a divine opportunity this would be. Reaching to place a hand on his shoulder, Yassi again smiled some more. As for curbing plant adopting impulses? This made the thirty-two year old laugh. "We can help each other." Merlin knew she couldn't resist."It was such a pleasure meeting you, Kitty. I do have to get going, but this was the highlight of my week."
