Thread: Zacharias & Susan Who: Zacharias Smith and Susan Bones. When: July 6th. Afternoon. Where: Diagon Alley. What: Broomstick shopping! Susan needs a new broom. Zacharias knows brooms. Rating: Low.
If there was one thing that Zacharias Smith knew, it was Quidditch supplies. Of course, as he would tell you, he knew a great many things, but all things Quidditch was at the top of that list. So when Susan said she wanted to purchase a new broomstick, well, Zacharias was definitely game for that sort of shopping. Frilly frocks and shoes, no. Broomsticks and gear? Merlin, yes.
He arranged a time to meet her outside of Quality Quidditch Supplies, and Apparated into the area a few minutes before hand. The place was not as busy as it had once been, a few places still boarded up or under repair, but business was steadily picking up as Diagon Alley and life in general began to return to normal.
Raking fingers through his messy blonde hair, Zacharias looked around for his friend, walking towards the Quidditch shop as he did so. When he arrived he paused outside to wait for her there, scanning the people walking about, nodding or saying hello when he saw the odd familiar face (well familiar faces that he liked. To one familar face he gave a sneer and a rude gesture). Soon enough, he saw that familiar head of non-Weasley-red hair.
"Oy, Susie Q!" he called out cheerfully as she approved. "Looking for something new to ride, eh?" He said that loud enough for plenty of passbyers to hear. Of course.
