Diagon Alley Shopping
Who: Hans Erwan, Tristan Moore
When: August 22, 2020 - afternoon.
Where: Diagon Alley, Apothecary
Status: Complete
Summary: Hans heads out to Diagon Alley to get his school shopping out of the way. First up is the apothecary where Hans immediately regrets his heightened sense of smell. Tristan roams over to have a chat and teach him the fine art of picking out working ingredients for potions. The two joke around a bit more before Hans finally decides to move off and finish up his shopping.
Han took a deep breath through his nose before tapping the appropriate blocks on the stone wall behind the Leakey Cauldron. As the passage into Diagon Alley appeared, he relaxed a little, feeling less tense than he had ever since the distraction of the last Tri-Wizard task had ended.
He couldn’t begin to explain how freeing it was to step back into an obviously magical environment. This was the longest time he had ever spent around the muggle population – he still didn’t know how he was supposed to act around them. Luckily, his thick accent had acted as enough of an explanation for his strange behavior to most muggles.
Shaking that thought off, Hans struck out down the street, making straight for the apothecary first. He had struggled a bit deciphering the letter from Hogwarts (something he took as a bad sign), but from what he could gather, he would need to buy several different ingredients for the Potions class this term.
The blond wrinkled his nose as he stepped into the shop and the strength of the smell hit him.
Had it always smelled so terrible, or was it some side effect of the lycanthropy? Perhaps the warmer air of Britain caused the ingredients to have a stronger odor…?
Whichever it was, Hans stood awkwardly in the door for a moment with his arm lifted to cover his nose in a vain attempt to block the smell.
