WHO: Robbie Stebbins and Romilda Vane WHEN: Friday, 22nd July, lunchtime WHERE: Cafe in Diagon Alley WHAT: Sharing a cream cake and perhaps Romilda has some information that'll panic Robbie
The cafe overlooked Madam Malkin's, and while he waited for Romilda to arrive, Robbie gazed thoughtfully at one of the menswear robes in the window. Wizarding fashion had been taking a distinct shift of late, sporting a more Muggle style, so this set of robes seemed somewhat old-fashioned to his eyes. But he supposed it was still favoured by some wizards. And of course, beside it, there was a sharper cut suit that Madam Malkin was pointing out to a tall wizard from inside the shop.
He'd chosen a table inside, despite the warm weather. It was safer. He would be less likely to be on guard throughout their meeting, and the cafe's temperature seemed to have been set to pleasantly cool, so it was no real bother. He had removed his suit jacket though, and lain it over one of the chairs at the table he'd chosen. The tea had been ordered, though Romilda might want to get hot chocolate or something, and he hadn't yet picked out the cake, still hesitant of the calories. Having already had a sandwich at the office, whilst sorting out the mess from the security breach incident last night, Robbie looked forward to a small break before he had to head back and continue the day; interviews with potential panel members for the internal investigation - did the trouble never end?
