Tristan extended a hand to help Meghan out of the fireplace like the gentleman he was. Once it looked like everyone was present and set to go, he grinned, waggled his eyebrows, and started toward the exit.

Given that this was the last weekend before school started, it would be crowded as anything, and he wasn't disappointed when he stepped out into the Alley proper. Crowds upon crowds of people. Blue eyes shot toward Lan, and despite knowing that Rose wasn't around, the younger wizard still appeared to be looking for her.

Tris' grin broadened as he leaned over to nudge Lan. "She's not here, mate," he advised.

Lan jumped a little when Tris nudged him, and he shrugged. "I know," he said, knowing full well Tris probably heard the edge of defensiveness to his voice.

Slinging an arm around Lan's shoulders, and then around Hugo's, Tristan exhaled loudly. "Right then. How do we want to do this, and where are we headed first?"

"Books," Meghan chimed in helpfully. She was a little disappointed Lily hadn't come along, but she supposed if she had a guy as cute as Lily claimed Sirius was in the house, she might not be inclined to go on a second shopping trip. "For classes," she added before Tristan could make some quip about badgers not reading for fun, or whatever his flavor of the day was.

"Appreciate the offer, but I know better than that," Tris murmured as he stepped into the shop.

He glanced around, nodding to a few of his teammates when he caught sight of them.

With a grand flourish, he pulled out his book list. "You think they'd have some sort of organization in here. The school should send the lists to the store, who should get the books ready for us ..."

He grinned. "Dunno why they haven't thought that up yet."

"I think they have something against common sense," Hugo decided, fumbling in his pocket for a moment and twice he pulled out the wrong crumbled piece of paper before finding the right one.

"Or they feel this is some sort of right of passage," he mused, glancing dubiously around the store for a moment before returning his gaze to the older boy.

"Meet you out front in a few?" He didn't imagine their books would be anywhere near each other. "Unless you need an escort," he added playfully.

	"Sound plan," he agreed with a soft laugh before he pointed. "I'll be over in the big boy books if you get done early," he teased with a wink before squeezing Hugo's shoulder. He probably really should attempt the "serious talk" thing before he really confused the boy with his potentially mixed signals. He just didn't know where to go with said talk.

"I guess you can find me in the kid's section then," he replied with a grin, shaking his head lightly. He liked all the little touches, but still wasn't sure what to make of them and he reminded himself once more that he was just going with the flow and not trying to analyze everything.

That was actually sort of easy 'cause he had no idea what any of it meant.

He lifted his hand in a wave before starting off to buy his books and get Meg's while he was at it.
