Default Madame Puddifoot's

Madame Puddifoot's is a quiet tea shop where you can meet up with your friends.

The tea shop is laid out in a typical English tea room fashion. Lace doilies cover each table on top of the flower patterned table cloths. In the middle of each is a small container with a tea light candle, ready to be lit for those on a romantic retreat. The windows are half covered by fancy net curtains, leaving just enough room at the top to see over and down Hogsmeade's High Street. Little flower and heart covered cushions are on each seat awaiting your arrival.

Sapphira Puddifoot keeps the shop this way because she has to. But she has no desire to look upon all the fancy decorations herself, which is why you'll most likely find her in the back room. She'll come and serve you, but make sure you know what you want to order as she doesn't have all day.

WHAT?! "Different? But... but... how?" Hadn't they always been like this?

This was going to be one of those times when he had to grin so she wouldn't be too mad, right? Awesome. Grinning was happening. "But it's great! Don't cover them up, embrace it," Nodnod.

... Yeah... he was confused. "I did?" Caught something... Why would he say something like that? "You sure?" Because he'd much rather sort out whatever-- ... GRIN. Lots and lots. "I'm really glad that you do." See? This was nice. Even if these seats weren't as comfortable as the sofa they liked to cuddle on back in the common room. ... Oh food. "Oh a bacon buttie! Look, Ells, they have cheese and crackers!" Good old healthy snack. "Tea sounds great. I might get some too," Better than coffee they served in shops. Too much sugar. And speaking of sugar, half of the things on the menu seemed to be swimming in the stuff! And the prices? A small frown formed on his face before he said, "Yeah... they certainly weren't that high back in the day."

Maybe... he should stop showing her his hands? Yeah. Letting them drop down again, he frowned a little at her. "Erm... has that been happening a lot lately?" Because she should get that looked at with the Healer. ... Wait... "You do?!" Way to withhold vital information, Bishop. "June... June... what is he like?"


"Yeah, definitely." It was sad in a way too. A lot of things were different now and people had come and gone and she sometimes wished they could go back. Only sometimes, though. At least back then she wasn't wrinkly and grey. And...clearly she'd freaked him out by implying that they were the ones who had changed so she bit her lip and nodded slowly. "I just mean...do you ever wonder what's going on with us? I knew eighteen would make me feel old but I never thought I'd feel like this." And yeah, this was probably not the kind of talk suited for a date but it was sort of too late to turn back now.

The grinning was totally working, by the way. It always did which made Ella think he had an unfair advantage when he annoyed her. Reluctantly the Head Girl smiled too and lowered her hands, lacing them together instead. "If you say so, Alec." She still thought tomato colors were best meant for the garden or a salad but what did she know?

"I don't know now, honestly. I could've sworn..." She was confused now, and also wondering if she was imagining things. Could be possible, actually. Her body was doing weird things so it wasn't so far fetched to think her mind would follow after it. It was slightly worrisome, though. She'd just worry later, yeah? Handsome boyfriend to pay attention to now and all that. "Can't help it. It's easy to feel that for you." Oh gosh, that was cheesy. Cheesy...cheese. Had he mentioned cheese and crackers? "Mmm! That does sound lovely. We should have some of that most definitely." And as Alec agreed with her on the prices, Ella noticed a couple of unused sugar packets and casually placed a hand over them, sliding them in the direction of her now open purse.

"Sometimes, yeah. I guess a bit more now than a few days ago?" Her memory was a bit fuzzy so she wasn't too sure when it had started but she could see it concerned Alec and so she smiled. "No worrying, okay. M'sure everything is fine." She hoped so, anyway.

June...what was June like? "Um...he seemed okay. I'm pretty sure he likes creatures just as much as me which makes him cool in my book." But other than that, she didn't know much. Not much chance to chat during their internship. Creatures to attend to and all that. "Why, you want to interrogate him or something?" That thought was actually amusing and Ella smiled a little, eyebrows raised.

Emmylou looked around, she hadn't ordered anything yet. Emmy wouldn't normally go into a shop like this but she was cold, she really wanted to know where her roommates put her jeans! The poor girl just wanted to wear her jeans and a sweatshirt but she knew she didn't want to wear this skirt or this shirt or this coat but the boots were alright. Emmylou had been complain about a lot of stuff in her head but on the exterior it seemed as if she always wore this stuff, she was pretty good at not letting her feelings show unless it was something that threw her over the edge. Emmy waved the redhead over to the table.

"HEY! How are you? I'm great, I'm so happy to be here and to get away for a day or two!"
SPOILER!!: KACE

He was told to meet at Madame Puddifoots which was cool, he was craving something sweet and wanted some tea. As he went inside the store, he saw her and waved. "Hey Emmylou!" he said letting her know he was here. He also saw a new girl and nodded towards her and gave her a warm smile.

Between the talking Emmy would glance up at the shops doors to see if anyone else would walk right through. Kace had told her that he was going to show up, she really hoped that he did. Emmy met Kace on twitter and found out he went to Hogwarts and she was so happy because she could meet him now and not wait until the summer. Emmy could tell that Kace would be like best friend material but that's how she thought about everyone, she wasn't in liking boys...yet but she knew it would come along one day and hit her right in the face, she hoped it wasn't soon.

"HEY! Kace. How are you?"
SPOILER!!: LOUIS

With his hands buried in the pockets of his trousers to avoid the cold, Louis walked into the little shop. It didn’t take very long to spot the other three kids - Lux’s bright hair made an excellent landmark.

“Lady Lux!” he beamed at the sight of his Little Lady of the House of Hufflepuff, greeting her by ruffling her bright red hair playfully. He turned his blue-eyed gaze to Emmylou next, putting on a face of mock disappointment. “Toucan! Where’s your beak?” He chuckled softly and proceeded to sit across from the two girls, next to a younger boy he’d never met before.

“Hey, mate. I’m Louis,” he introduced himself, offering the boy a hand in friendly greeting.

Now there was two people missing, Emmy really hoped that Louis and Bart would show up, mostly Bart because he was commentating the last time she had seen him. Emmylou smiled at the others, where were these two. They weren't late she was just super excited. THERE HE WAS! HER NEW FRIEND, LOUIS! She still needed a nickname for him but she needed to know him more because she sucked at giving nicknames.

"HEY, Louis! I used a spell to mask my beak."

My reflexes are better when I'm on a sugar rush." Good reflexes where excellent to have. It's why Alice let her have candy before matches even though they were meant to be on this super strict diet to make sure they didn't go flopping and sluggish all over the Quidditch Pitch. Personally she didn't see what the big deal was so despite her Captain forbidding it, she had all the candy she wanted.

Lex followed Jun's gaze and spotted that Ella girl--see she remembered this time--waving back. Were they on a date over there? Was she interrupting? Could they be nice enough to warn her before they started any kissing? That would be fantastic.

Having both decided on croissants first, Alexa looked around for the lady in charge of this place. Er...was she just meant to yell or.....? Lex leaned onto the table and whispered. "I don't see the Shopkeep Lady. How exactly are we meant to get her?" Lex was quite sure that if they broke something she'd be out in a flash but that would have been counter-productive because they weren't trying to get kicked out.

Whaaaat?? Lex leaned back in her seat, a look of disbelief present. He FORGOT whether it was for her or not? "It's for me, trust me. All of it. Even the ones you didn't bother taking with you." Just in case he got any bright ideas about handing them out in the Ravenclaw Common Room later when she couldn't see. "How many did you get with chocolate in them?"


Yeah, no.

"See, now I don't want to be around you during a sugar rush. You might end up killing me or something," Or just seriously injure. Lex looked like the type. Plus they had this type of conversation before at the entrance hall. Which is how they started planning these dates and all. And if her reflexes were better, it was a sure thing Jun would stay away from her. Up in his dorm, in the claw tower. Yup.

Hm, that was a good question. Maybe if he yelled loud enough she would appear. But then be kicked out and not allowed back. That was so not happening. "Yelling won't help. She'll get upset. Maybe just wait it out a bit longer?" It was their only safe bet for now. Or walk up to the counter and call out to her. But that required more effort. "I'm sure she'll pop out soon,"

"Yeah, I figured. Wrote it down in my notebook and then I started losing my memory while I was away. You're lucky my brother kept reminding me," Thank goodness for Kai too. Him and his annoying ways of reminding Jun who to get gifts for. And it was gifts only for girls. Welp. "Um, I think like five other bags of chocolate? I'll have to check again when I get back,"

As Kace entered the shop, he noticed he wasn't the only dude here. As he was looking around for familiar faces, he noticed someone was introducing himself. He looked up and noticed it was a gryffindor, so he hadn't seen him around.

He got up from his seat and shook his hand friendly. "Hey mate, i am Kace. Nice to meet ya." he smiled. "Glad i am not the only boy here." he joked with him.

"HEY! Kace. How are you?"
After Kace greeted Louis, he heard Emmylous voice. He turned around and smiled at her. He waved and returned her greeting. "Hey i am doing great! I am excited that i am actually in Hogsmeade." he said looking around this tea shop. "I have never been in a place like this before though...but good choice. Do you know what your gonna have?" he said looking through the menu.

That thought was actually amusing and Ella smiled a little, eyebrows raised.


So... this wasn't a great topic, was it? No. He probably shouldn't have brought something like this up. Maybe he could... lighten it up a little? "Erm... there are some great things we have now that... we didn't have before?" Clearly he wasn't that good at this. Clearly. What's going on with them? Alec frowned a little and nodded too. "I guess?" Shrug. "I mean... you're not meant to be getting grey hairs at eighteen, right? And eighteen's not... that old." But they were the oldest two students in the school. ... Right?

Of course the grinning would work. Tactics. He was glad to see that the girl was smiling in return, though. And she had uncovered her face! Success! "Yeah, I do! You have nothing to worry about, yeah?" You know, if she had been worried that it looked bad.

More confused looks were given over towards the girl. Lots of confusion. "I'm sure it's nothing," Shrug. So she didn't need to worry about it, yeah? Because if he knew her, he knew that she tended to worry a lot. And this was a date! This was meant to be nice and a time for the two to relax from their duties and studies. And... cheesy. The girl was providing the cheesiness. A sheepish expression crossed the Head Boy's face. "It's easy to feel that way about you too, you know," GRIN. Did she want cheese and crackers too? "I... hope they make them like they used to." And.. what... was she doing? He stole a quick glance over at the shopkeeper before looking back at the Head Girl. "Sugar?"

Of course he was going to be worrying. He frowned a bit more when she mentioned that this had gotten worse over the past couple of days. That was enough to be worried about. "You sure? I mean, you could go and--" ... No. He knew how she felt about visits to the Healer. "... and get it checked out?"

He liked creatures. Glances were made in that direction again. "Well... if you think he's a good guy..." Ells was a good judge of character, right? Right. "Erm... yeah! He's dating my pseudo sister, I have to know what his intentions are." It would be the same thing if Astrid was dating someone.

... Astrid wasn't dating anyone, right?

Wait what? "Noooo." She insisted. "I'd only kill you if you tried killing me first or tried getting me down from my sugar rush. Those things are best left to run their course. Think of it more like....all the fun we can have while I'm on a sugar rush. You'd probably have to be on a sugar rush too to make it work but that's easily arranged." Because Jun liked large amounts of candy as well. Between the two of them they could do some serious damage when hyped up on sugar.

Yelling was always an option and so was taking a walk behind the counter but she didn't think she could do either right now. Getting up was a lot of effort after having hobbled here in the first place and now having that subtle aching in her knees and yelling, holy kneazle she didn't even wanna think about the strain involved so maybe he was right and the woman would just show up.

How very Ravenclaw of him. Writing things down was a good way to keep them in mind but by now she'd forgotten everything she would need to write down so it was a lost cause for her. "You should thank him for me." She said with a firm nod right before her eyes widened a bit and a wide grin spread across her face. "FIVE other bags of chocolate? Like legit??" hfaiyewgydwiudua!!! "You're the best! Are they like these? Do they have a marshmallow inside or all rock like??"

Oh! There was the shopkeeper! Lex gave the woman a wide smile when she approached the table, practically bouncing now that they were a step closer to the SUGAR. "We wanted to order some croissants 'cause see, we wanna eat most of the sugary stuff you have to offer but wanted to start small. What would you suggest after the croissants?" You know, with them working their way up and all.

You know, with them working their way up and all.


"You just confirmed that if I threw water at you, you'd kill me. I'll keep away till then," Or maybe just watch Lex go nuts from a safe distance. Merlin knew she'd ran up the walls if she could. But since they were wizards, they probably could. With the right charm and all. "Don't think you'd want me in one of those. Mum said I once ran around naked while on a sugar rush. Pretty sure I don't want that to happen again. Especially not here," Because there was a simple solution to that. Expulsion. Which he couldn't afford to get. EVER. He liked it here way too much and befriending Lex made it harder to leave.

Jun nodded. "I'll be sure to include it in my next letter to him. Maybe ask for gummy worms while I'm at it," Because he couldn't just eat chocolate all the time. It was tasty and all, but other kinds of candy were usually best at times. "Yes, completely legit," Jun grinned. And they were somewhere in his enchanted bag. He'll have to dig it out later for when they met up again. "Uh, I'll have to check again at the dorm. I'm pretty sure they're all different kinds. Not too sure if they have marshmallow in them though," He really needed to check now. Kai had better not messed up the chocolate.

Oh, good. The shopkeeper was finally here. And Lex was getting suggestions on what they should get later on. Most sugary things, please!

Sapphira listened to the old-looking girl with mild interest. They had all sort of oddity up there in Hogwarts, she was not going to question or even think about anything that came from there. And the girl wanted to have a nice chat? Recommendations? Sapphira's interest dropped about ten degrees, and you could see it in her neutral face. "There's the list there on the table. You're welcome to choose whatever pleases you and your date." Make it quick, she didn't have all day.

SUMMER FOREVER

Late. Late. Late.

Delilah stood outside Pudifoots and waited for Mitchie to turn up.. who was late, by the way. Seriously, WHY? The girl tucked a strand of her blonde hair behind her ears and scanned the street for her friend. The girl was FREEZING! Uh.. maybe she should go in and wait. It looked warm inside. And super crowded too.. Sigh.

.. Maybe in another five minutes. Yeah.

Pretty sure I don't want that to happen again. Especially not here," Because there was a simple solution to that. Expulsion. Which he couldn't afford to get. EVER. He liked it here way too much and befriending Lex made it harder to leave.

Jun nodded. "I'll be sure to include it in my next letter to him. Maybe ask for gummy worms while I'm at it," Because he couldn't just eat chocolate all the time. It was tasty and all, but other kinds of candy were usually best at times. "Yes, completely legit," Jun grinned. And they were somewhere in his enchanted bag. He'll have to dig it out later for when they met up again. "Uh, I'll have to check again at the dorm. I'm pretty sure they're all different kinds. Not too sure if they have marshmallow in them though," He really needed to check now. Kai had better not messed up the chocolate.

Oh, good. The shopkeeper was finally here. And Lex was getting suggestions on what they should get later on. Most sugary things, please!

Okay, so maybe she had said she'd kill him but that would technically only have been his fault. No one sees a sugar addict on a sugar rush and decides to throw water at her. It was a death wish in itself! Lex would have pointed this out too but was stopped by his next statement. "You ran around naked?" She asked, lowering her voice a bit but the expression on her face said it was probably the funniest thing she'd heard in a MONTH. Lucky for him she wasn't about to do some loud outrageous laughing but snickering was definitely happening. "How long ago was that? How old were you?" The last might have been the better question. That was something she'd expect from her 4 year old sister.

Ooohhh!! "Yes, gummy worms too, see if he can send some and maybe those jaw breakers too. Merlin I haven't had one of those in ages." The last she'd seen a jaw breaker was possibly the summer before her first year at Hogwarts, before she started spending minimal time around muggles and didn't waste as much time going into muggle candy shops.

The fact that he wasn't sure what KINDS he had didn't bother her too much. Candy was candy and even though he liked sour ones he must have at least remembered she didn't fancy them much so nothing to really worry about. "We're just gonna have to stop by the Ravenclaw Common Room later and find out." Something to look forward to.

And wasn't the shopkeep a bunch of sunshine wrapped inside a sour face? Tut tut. "I can read Ma'am, I promise. I know what's on the menu and we're gonna have most everything. Just thought you could have helped us decided the order so we don't keep calling you after we've finished every plate. It could get annoying you know, all the walks back and forth. It's great exercise but at what cost? Having to see two annoying kids every ten or so minutes?" Just some food for thought. "And he's not my date. We're just on a date." Because that made sense.

Allison was totally prepared for the cold weather but not this! She tried to walk through the flurry of snow, hail, and ice. She tried calling her friends but then remembered they'd left their phones at her apartment. She saw a shop as she aproached it she could see warm lights and tea. She ran as fast as she could and peeped through the window, fancy and not her kind of place but anything to get out of this storm. She opened the door stepped inside and the door slammed itself behind her. She felt heat rise to her cheecks and hoped nobody was staring at her

Jun snorted and laughed. Reason why he has a duplicated candy bag that he shows his mum before heading to school. The real one always stayed tucked nicely in his trunk with the better candy. Out of all things to remember, why couldn't he forget that bad sugar rush. Merlin, it was a bad memory for him. "I think I was thirteen when it happened. Appearantly, I was jumping and running all over the place and broke some things," Which is grandmother was not happy about. Like at all. Every time he'd visit now, she's only give him water to drink and no treats. She was an evil woman for that. Jun couldn't even remember how the rush started, but thankfully he hadn't had one since. And he was going to keep it that way.

Nod nod. "Loads of gummy worms and jawbreakers. He might throw in extra candy I forgot at home. Dunno what kind either," Hopefully it was some pepero because Jun was running low on those and they were his favorite. Especially the strawberry kind. Kai might also make him pay back all the money he spent on the candy. Ugh. Jun nodded. "Yup, and you can take the five bags of chocolate that I'm pretty sure are for you anyway," Unless one was for Midget. But he'll just tell Kai to send more later.

Jun held back a look towards the shoplady. There was no need to be grump about things. This was her job anyway. And if she didn't want to do it, why not hire more help? But he was pretty sure she wouldn't want to split her money among others. So lighten up, Miss.

"I guess?" Shrug. "I mean... you're not meant to be getting grey hairs at eighteen, right? And eighteen's not... that old." But they were the oldest two students in the school. ... Right?

Of course the grinning would work. Tactics. He was glad to see that the girl was smiling in return, though. And she had uncovered her face! Success! "Yeah, I do! You have nothing to worry about, yeah?" You know, if she had been worried that it looked bad.

More confused looks were given over towards the girl. Lots of confusion. "I'm sure it's nothing," Shrug. So she didn't need to worry about it, yeah? Because if he knew her, he knew that she tended to worry a lot. And this was a date! This was meant to be nice and a time for the two to relax from their duties and studies. And... cheesy. The girl was providing the cheesiness. A sheepish expression crossed the Head Boy's face. "It's easy to feel that way about you too, you know," GRIN. Did she want cheese and crackers too? "I... hope they make them like they used to." And.. what... was she doing? He stole a quick glance over at the shopkeeper before looking back at the Head Girl. "Sugar?"

Of course he was going to be worrying. He frowned a bit more when she mentioned that this had gotten worse over the past couple of days. That was enough to be worried about. "You sure? I mean, you could go and--" ... No. He knew how she felt about visits to the Healer. "... and get it checked out?"

He liked creatures. Glances were made in that direction again. "Well... if you think he's a good guy..." Ells was a good judge of character, right? Right. "Erm... yeah! He's dating my pseudo sister, I have to know what his intentions are." It would be the same thing if Astrid was dating someone.

... Astrid wasn't dating anyone, right?


She was going to say 'like what' but Ella thought better of it. They weren't together first year and she hadn't been on the Quidditch team then, or on Yearbook, or had a chance to be Captain yet. All of those things had changed her and she wouldn't want to give any of it up, even if things with them were kind of crazy right now what with the aging and all. Really, she just needed to stop being such a downer. If Alec was going to try, so was she. And so she smiled a little and slowly reached for his hand, giving it a squeeze. "You're right, y'know." Smart guy, Alec was. And on her part, she shouldn't have questioned the aging, not now. It was too late to backtrack, though. "Do you think the healer is working on it? I mean, surely the Professors must have noticed what's going on with us." Clearly Culloden had, having had a wrinkle potion lesson and all.

Nothing to worry about? "If you say so." She'd just have to take his word for it and she was pretty good at doing that.

She was worrying. Totally was. Per usual, yeah? She just couldn't help it. Especially if this dumb old age epidemic was making her all weird and forgetful. Who would want to be around her if it got worse? She'd be all alone and deaf and talking to herself and then she'd die alone. Yup. And so when Alec said it was nothing to worry about, the eighteen year old nodded and said quietly, "I really hope so." And that was the last she'd say about it, yeah? They had nicer things to talk about. Things like him agreeing with her which caused her to grin like an idiot. "You're sweet, y'know." She was going to keep him. He also seemed hungry which was good because she was too. Time to eat, then? "I hope so too. Do you want to order now, then?" And oh gosh, he saw the sugar? So much for being stealth. "They want you to take it," She insisted, sliding the packets into her bag. "Why else would they buy in bulk?"

The healer, Summers? Just no. Ella made a face and shook her head. "It's probably nothing, remember?" Hadn't he said that before. "Besides, if I need to go, so do you." And he didn't want to do that, did he?

"I think, yeah. Maybe you should meet up with him, then? Try and see what he's really like so you'll know if he's good for her and stuff?" Could she come too? She was a super investigator so it totally made sense for her to interrogate him too. Just saying.

Meeting her gaze as she spoke, he wished she would lower the menu he could actually see the smile that he knew was there. He could feel his wrinkly and age spot covered cheeks growing warm and he breathed in as he was breathing out. The not old he could believe, especially since he was still very much young at heart. The handsome, well, she was being far too generous. "I still have my hair at least," he replied as he patted his silver head. "But I certainly don't look young anymore, Medea. Don't feel it so much either. I look like I could be your grandfather instead of your..you know." That word. The one that he couldn't believe he could use to identify himself as. He glanced down at his menu and sighed. "I was hoping to take you dancing sometime, a proper dance...but all I think we'll be able to do are these sit down sort of...........things."

Saying the word date was still weird. Not a bad weird. It was just a word that he hadn't been able to ever associate with himself and now that he could, well, it just didn't roll off the tongue so easily. Same with the b word.
She did lower the menu. Slowly. Though her smile wasn't there anymore. A twitch of a smile appeared and disappeared as fast as it arrived as he spoke about dancing, but nothing really lingered. Letting her menu drop upon the table, she stared at the astronomy professor. Just for a moment or so in silence before speaking. "Ve'll figure this out, Airey." she said softly. "Everything be alright."

It would. They'd gotten out of worse before.

Yet, she found she couldn't rid herself of the persistent tremble of nerves crawling under her skin. Time wasn't on their hands, and there had been a lot of passed time already. Taking a deep breath, she shook the thoughts away, and smiled. "A proper dance, hmm?"

Pity parties were extremely unattractive. He had learned this after his accident thanks to a slap across the face from one of his coworkers to snap him out of his darkness and back to life. Medea had taken a much gentler approach with words and looks, and while he was not entirely sure he shared her optimism - time was of the essence, you know? - it was reassuring to a certain degree that she believed so. "I am glad you think so," he said as one of his arthritis stricken hands reached over and held one of hers.

So soft and smooth. Such a stark contrast between his leathery and wrinkling skin. UG.

A boyish smirk spread across his aged face and he somehow managed to give her hand a small squeeze before letting go. "Um, yes, proper dance..." he nodded. "Like...um...you know...a dance...perhaps a Valentines one...like...um...the one that the student leaders are putting on...and announced in the dance lesson I held and..." He was REALLY bad at doing this, you know? He HAD had a plan of sorts, a poorly thought out one, and now the execution was leaving something to be desired. "I mean...I guess what I am trying to say is...." THE ROSE! REMEMBER THE ROSE FLAMSTEED! "Will you be..." He reached into his charmed breast pocket, pulled out a single red rose, and offered it to her. ".......will you be my Valentine?" he shouted accidentally. Nerves and all. This was still new to him.

Please?

And... he should stop staring at her smile, yeah? "Yeah, I'm hungry. You want me to call her over?" You know, since the girl was busy stowing away some packets of sugar in her bag. He glanced over at her, and then at the packets of sugar and then... burst out laughing. "What are you going to do with so much sugar, Ells?"

Was she using his words against him? Had he said that? ... He... didn't know. "I... hope it's not." And she had a point about him needing to see the Healer too. "Clever. But... I'd... rather make sure that you're okay."

Alec's eyes widened as he looked over at the other couple and then back at Ells. "That's a brilliant idea! I could... I could ask him everything I need to know. Like what his intentions are and... and if he's going to play with her heart." The last one was a BIG NO. That was not allowed to happen to Candy, okay?


Hand squeezes were nice and Ella was just going to hold his hand for a bit, okay? It was much bigger than her hand, did he know? And she rubbed her thumb over the back of it absently as she listened to him talk. She liked that too, listening to Alec. And only when he'd finished did she offer something in return. "Yeah, it'd be pretty hard not to notice how lots of us are looking...and acting lately." Clearly something was up. "I don't know if she's been around but I haven't exactly sought her out. I'm sort of afraid of what she might say." Like no quidditch. Imagine?

He was staring, Alec was. It made Ella blush even more but she didn't try and hide it this time. Taking his word for it, yeah? Instead she stared back, wondering if he knew what he was doing or not. "I like that. That you're honest, I mean." It was something she liked most about him, actually. Trust was something really important to the Head Girl. As for him calling the shopkeeper over, the eighteen year old nodded enthusiastically. "Yes please." She was hungry too. And what...was he laughing at her? Ella narrowed her green eyes slightly and put a finger to her lips, "Shhhh!" Way to call attention to it, Summers. "I don't know what I'll do with it but it's a waste, leaving them out like this. Maybe I'll donate them to the house elves." Good Samaritan, she was.

Oh gosh, not this discussion again. Ella made a face and shook her head. "We're both important, okay? And I'm not going unless you do. That's final." So if he expected her to get checked out, he'd need to suck it up and go with her, and not for moral support.

See? She could be smart! Ella smiled a little at his excitement and nodded her head. "Yeah, exactly. And boys these days, well they're not as trustworthy as they used to be, y'know? I definitely think you should look into it." Just like she'd be looking into any of the people Tobias was interested in. Just saying.

"Yeah, it'd be pretty hard not to notice how lots of us are looking...and acting lately." Clearly something was up. "I don't know if she's been around but I haven't exactly sought her out. I'm sort of afraid of what she might say." Like no quidditch. Imagine?

He was staring, Alec was. It made Ella blush even more but she didn't try and hide it this time. Taking his word for it, yeah? Instead she stared back, wondering if he knew what he was doing or not.

Alec didn't mind the fact that Ells was holding onto his hand. At least they weren't snogging in front of the professors and his pseudo sister and her date the other guy. But they could be snogging. Hint hint. "Yeah, you're right. And some of the Professors have been..." He cast a look around before slowly leaning forward and lowering his voice, "... acting in a similar way." Nodnod. "... Oh. Erm... what do you mean?" What would the Healer say?

The blushing was really nice, did she know? The sight of it was enough to make the boy grin stupidly at her. It was nice that her cheeks did that. It meant that he was doing something correctly, yeah? Yeah. "Does that mean that you'll believe my compliments?" She had to! And he should call over the shopkeeper, yeah? Right... after she finished packing away the packets of sugar and after he finished laughing. "I... sorry! You're taking packets of sugar and..." SNORT. He shook his head before continuing, "That's a great plan! Just... don't tell them where you got it from?" The shopkeeper might not be impressed. And speaking of shopkeeper... Alec slowly put his hand up in the air. Hello? Shopkeeper? Was she nearby?

It was obvious that he wasn't going to win this debate against the girl who wore the pants in the relationship. She was going to make him cave, wasn't she? "I... fine fine, okay. If it gets worse, we'll get it checked out, yeah?" We. Together. Head Boy and Head Girl. ... Because he wanted to get rid of the grey hairs as soon as possible.

"No... no, they're not," The eighteen year old glanced over at the June boy, a small frown spreading across his face. "Them with their... their skateyboards and their caps that go the wrong way." Not a good choice for Candy. "But... what if I can't sound scary enough?"

And super crowded too.. Sigh.

.. Maybe in another five minutes. Yeah.
Mitchell may or may not have passed the shop a few times not wanting to seem to eager. That... and he kind of noticed what kind of restaurant this was.

Not that he minded.

"Hey." he greeted spotting Delilah. "Shall we head inside?" Because he was ready to. It was kind of cold out and she had kept him waiting.

... and he was hungry.

All good reasons to go in.

Out of all things to remember, why couldn't he forget that bad sugar rush. Merlin, it was a bad memory for him. "I think I was thirteen when it happened. Appearantly, I was jumping and running all over the place and broke some things," Which is grandmother was not happy about. Like at all. Every time he'd visit now, she's only give him water to drink and no treats. She was an evil woman for that. Jun couldn't even remember how the rush started, but thankfully he hadn't had one since. And he was going to keep it that way.

Nod nod. "Loads of gummy worms and jawbreakers. He might throw in extra candy I forgot at home. Dunno what kind either," Hopefully it was some pepero because Jun was running low on those and they were his favorite. Especially the strawberry kind. Kai might also make him pay back all the money he spent on the candy. Ugh. Jun nodded. "Yup, and you can take the five bags of chocolate that I'm pretty sure are for you anyway," Unless one was for Midget. But he'll just tell Kai to send more later.

Jun held back a look towards the shoplady. There was no need to be grump about things. This was her job anyway. And if she didn't want to do it, why not hire more help? But he was pretty sure she wouldn't want to split her money among others. So lighten up, Miss.


No. Way.

Thirteen eh? Lex took a moment to try remembering what a sugar rush was like for her at Thirteen. Even then she didn't go around without clothes on. Candy usually made her hyper, not regrettably unaware or anything. Most it got her was fast talking, sharp shooting and the inability to sit still...like at ALL. She was practically bouncing off the walls once.

"Breaking things is almost a given with a sugar rush. Sometimes I go a lot faster than my eyes are seeing and I run right into things. Can't tell you how many things I've broken but Daddy's not fussed. He just....waves a wand and they're fixed. It's nothing big." She said with a casual shrug. Though she was at the point where she wished she could wave her own wand during the breaks. What was the point of learning if she couldn't use it? "There was a point where he wanted to ban me from candy completely, said I was out of hand. Think I might have been 10? Yeah and I cried for a whole day." Sometimes you had to force tears to get what you wanted. The Gryffindor was never above doing that. Except, not now but when she was younger. Now she found other ways of getting what she wanted.

Aw man, his memory really was getting shoddy. Actually leaving candy at home. She didn't think that was possible. Any and all candy she bought automatically went into her candy bag because she took it everywhere she went. "You should see the Healer. You know things are bad when you start forgetting candy." And there he went again with thinking they were for her. "Trust me. They're mine." Didn't she just say this? Jun needed to have a little faith.

"I am glad you think so," he said as one of his arthritis stricken hands reached over and held one of hers.

So soft and smooth. Such a stark contrast between his leathery and wrinkling skin. UG.

A boyish smirk spread across his aged face and he somehow managed to give her hand a small squeeze before letting go. "Um, yes, proper dance..." he nodded. "Like...um...you know...a dance...perhaps a Valentines one...like...um...the one that the student leaders are putting on...and announced in the dance lesson I held and..." He was REALLY bad at doing this, you know? He HAD had a plan of sorts, a poorly thought out one, and now the execution was leaving something to be desired. "I mean...I guess what I am trying to say is...." THE ROSE! REMEMBER THE ROSE FLAMSTEED! "Will you be..." He reached into his charmed breast pocket, pulled out a single red rose, and offered it to her. ".......will you be my Valentine?" he shouted accidentally. Nerves and all. This was still new to him.

Please?
Despite their contrasts, she didn't particular want to let go of his hand.

But there were students about. There were always students. And talk of dancing! A proper dance. Her smile grew as he rambled on. Oh yes, there was a Valentines dance coming up, wasn't there? She'd nearly forgotten. And...goodness Merlin, what a beautiful red rose-

o.o

Hoping to all goodness in the world that he missed that little jump of surprise, she momentarily focused on composing herself, cheeks flushing as red as the rose. She'd never really taken Valentines day seriously, but...it had meaning now. A lot of meaning. Her smile slowly reappeared, hand shifting from sitting over her heart to reaching out for the rose. "Only if you'll be mine."

Sweet solstice. If the anticipation for her response to his question wasn't enough to make him feel like his body was going through spaghettification, the slow realization that he had just SHOUTED his request at her was enough to push him over the event horizon. Do over? Were those allowed?

The panic on his wrinkly face was gone a few moments later - although it felt like an eternity to the astronomer - and his mouth hung open wide. Yes. She had just said yes. Well, not literally yes, but her answer implied as much. A response slowly began formulating in his head and slowly began transforming from just a thought into an action and his eyes locked with hers. "If I had a star for every time you brightened my day, especially since all of this started happening, I’d have a galaxy in my hand...of course I will."

The moment would have been even BETTER for him if he could actually see her face clearly.

Delilah narrowed her eyes slightly when she finally spotted Mitchie walking towards her. Seriously? Didn't he know that it was rude to keep a girl waiting? Pfft.

"Hey. Yes, we can.. after you tell me why you're late." Delilah tucked her hands deep into the pockets of her jacket ( she really was FREEZING ) but, no. She wanted to listen to his excuse first.

The girl raised an eyebrow at him. So?

She ran as fast as she could and peeped through the window, fancy and not her kind of place but anything to get out of this storm. She opened the door stepped inside and the door slammed itself behind her. She felt heat rise to her cheecks and hoped nobody was staring at her
Jackson ran into the shop when that girl held it open. "Thanks," he muttere, hands still in his pockets. "Oh, so warm." He decided to stay for a while, or at least until the storm lifted. He took a seat at the nearest table. He was going to be helpful and show that girl to the nearest table, but they were all full. Why did he even come to Hogsmeade? Oh, right. To see some cousin of his who supposidly went to Hogwarts. Why did everyone always want him to meet his obscure relatives? He waited to see if anyone was going to leave, and when nobody did, he reluctantly patted the seat next to him. "Here. Take a seat."

Louis smiled politely when Kace shook his hand and introduced himself. “Nice meeting you, too.” Since they were all in casual attire, he couldn’t tell which House the boy belonged to immediately. “Which House are you in, by the way?” he asked, assuming it couldn’t have been Gryffindor or else he would’ve seen him around in the common room.

Louis laughed at Toucan’s comment about hiding her beak with a spell. “That’s some advanced spellwork you’ve done there. I could’ve never guessed,” he said, eyebrows raised. “Are we looking at a pontential Ravenclaw, perhaps?” Hmm?
