Hyperion started slightly as a young redheaded woman in a fox costume popped up from behind the counter, years of training and paranoia making his hand itch for his wand. After a second though, he relaxed his hand and smiled at her. She was clearly glamoured and had a blandly inoffensive Scottish accent, but the fact that she was talking to him and not hexing him seemed to indicate that it wasn't Panda staring at him - as much as there was something in the face.
"I certainly hope so," he replied, giving her a winning smile to hide his vague amusement at the no-doubt Hallowe'en related fox ensemble she was wearing. "I'm here to pick up a jewellery box for Susan Bones." He paused for a moment and fished into the spelled pockets of his jacket for the receipt Susan had pushed into his hands. "Here's the receipt of purchase," he added, handing it to her and then looking around curiously, almost wishing that Panda would actually appear - if only so he could look at her properly for a moment before they engaged in the inevitable war of words that would erupt if they actually interacted. Realising that he was being rude, he smiled again and looked back at the woman. "I like your costume, by the way. It's very ah, foxy."
