Summary: After a visit to her parents, Mandy makes her way home in muggle London.
Status: Incomplete
Mandy had spent all afternoon at her parents' house, losing track of time. She'd stayed for dinner, then desert. Now she was coming back home and it was dark and crowded. As capable a person as she was, she hated walking alone after dark at least not as far as she had to get to from her parents to her own flat. She had to take the train and walk a bit for a train stop and then a bit to her place after she got off. It was rather tiresome and she didn't like the shady people that sprung up at night.
Maybe she was being naive and even judgmental but she couldn't help it. The jostling on the street didn't help her either. She hated it, always adjusting the bags she had. It wouldn't be so bad if she had only her purse, but she had a bag of food her mother had given her. Her mother was convinced she wasn't eating enough or at all. She couldn't comprehend how her daughter could make it on the salary of a dragon trainer trainee on her own. Her father, the muggle of the pair, thought it was hilarious and always made sure Mandy never "forgot" the food.
As she walked on the sidewalk, she felt someone bump into her arm, causing the bag to swing sharply and heavily, nearing hitting someone in the back of the legs before she stopped it. "Ow," she whispered at the sharp sting of her shoulder from the too quick movement.
