Who: Eddie McLaggen and OPEN What: Trying to see what all the fuss is about When: Afternoon, August 30, 2017 Where: Muggle Pizziaria on Charring Cross
There were days when Eddie wondered if he had been born into the right place and time. He always felt different from the rest of his family and the American habits he'd picked up across the pond only helped to push that feeling further into his being.
He had gone into Diagon Alley to pick up the items necessary to restock his potions store. Eddie enjoyed potions, especially when they did something unique and unexpected. His parents were both so percise on everything they did that he knew better than to show them his findings. He'd often tweak an ingredient by amount or change one item to something completely different just to see what it would do. He'd once tweaked a sniffles potion by omitting the curing agent and as such it caused him to have uncontrollable sneezing fits. Eddie had thought it funny, but his mother had just cried.
Eddie had often wondered why he made his mother cry so often. He hadn't tried to be a bad son, honestly. He had noticed that when they were in America, she had loosened up some and seemed to be a bit happier. Katie had even given Eddie the freedome to roam around that she had never given him in Britain. Of course, now that he was of age, she couldn't keep him under lock and key. Though she had made him promise never to walk into that dreadful Weasley Wizard Wheezes place.
However, today he had broken that rule just long enough to pop his head in and grab a mail order catalogue. So here he sat, at his favorite resturant enjoying his favorite meal, pizza, and looking through a forbidden magazine.
