Rating: PG
Content: None
Summary: Mandy needs an alteration, and they're gonna annoy each other
Status: Incomplete

It figured that she she should spend all day shifting between patients, tasks and classes only to end up sliding down stairs on her way out the door, nearly knocking herself unconscious. The injuries had been minor, and all easily healed, but her healer-in-training robes hadn't faired nearly as well. Not the best at household spells and mending hexes, Mandy was left with no choice but to rush to Madam Malkin's before it shut. She could have gone in the morning, but that would have meant heading down to London and she had loads of other things to do.

Walking along the cobbles, Mandy tugged her robes close, trying not to let the tear be as obvious as it felt. Reaching the door, Mandy pushed it open and stepped inside. Biting her lower lip, she looked around, unsure of who to approach.

Mandy tried not to roll her eyes, but it was getting a bit hard. "I dunno. Training keeps me busy." Mandy explained. She was still running regularly, and she supposed that she skipped more meals than she should, but there were lessons to revise and spells to practise, so it wasn't like she had that much time. "Besides, it still fits."

Still trying not to move, Mandy watched him measure her, frowning slightly at the look on his face. Surely it wasn't that bad. Besides, it wasn't like she exactly had the time, and the food that was available was hardly the healthiest.

"It doesn't fit properly", Jake demonstrated, sliding two fingers underneath her bra strap on her right shoulder. "Ill fitting bras can cause you problems if you're not careful", he sighed, and waived his wand. Two bras flew out from the stockroom on the lower floor and bagged themselves up in Madame Malkins paper carriers before setting themselves in front of Mandy's feet. "You're welcome", he murmured and continued taking the last few measurements.

After a moment, he stood straight again and sighed. "Right, they'll be with you in a couple of days", he announced rather proudly, taking off his glasses once more and tucking them into his waistcoat pocket.

His fingers were on her skin again, and Mandy was doing her best not to be acutely aware of that fact. it was absurd. Still she nodded trying to take note of his advise. She supposed he was an expect. "Thanks." She managed afted the bras came floating down to her.

"Great. Thank you." Mandy said, giving Jake a proper smile this timen once he announced that they were finished. She checked her robes, one last time, more out of nervousness than anything else before stepping off of the podium. Bending down to pick up the bag with the bras and reached into her pocket to fish out a few coins. "How much for the fix and the new robes?"

	Jake shook his head and waved his hand dismissively. "On the house if you go home and eat some form of carbohydrates", he grinned. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Mandy blinked in surprise but nodded her head. "I - ok. Thank you." She managed, stumbling over hte words in surprise. She wasn't sure where that was coming from, but wasn't sure she could argue with him either, deciding to walk back to the door, she'd wasted enough of his time. When she reached the door,m she paused and turned around to look at Jake. "And if I stick to fruit, shall I post you the coins?" She asked with a grin before ducking out the door. Heading back down the cobbles, she made a mental note to owl him the money later, it wasn't fair otherwise.
