Of all the troubling things Luna had hoped she would never run into, it was a lack of new books. She'd imagined that she'd gotten quite enough at the beginning of the summer. Who knew thirty was not a sufficient number. Of course, half of those had been from the library. Now it was nearing the start of school, and she found herself with no books left to read. As soon as she had explained the situation to her father, he had agreed that she ought to be allowed to buy at least three more books. It wasn't very many books, but it would be enough. It would have to be enough. She would just have to read slowly.
She quickly decided on an outfit before using the Floo to get to Diagon. She couldn't decide between Obscurus Books or Flourish and Blotts. After a moment, she decided on Obscurus Books. Her focus was so intently focused upon getting her way to the bookstore that she ran straight into someone, barely thinking about it as she grabbed onto their arm to keep from falling over. "Oh!" Her eyes lifted up, slightly widening. "Excuse me," she said, stepping back quickly and tucking a strand of stray hair behind her ear.
