WHO: Peter Pettigrew & OPEN! WHEN: Saturday morning WHERE: Scrivenshaft's Quill Shop WHAT: Peter is a little over-excitable CHALLENGE: Bingo (Scrivenshaft's, a pepperup potion)
Peter had been up for nearly forty-eight hours. He thought he'd gotten in a nap or two at some point. At least, it seemed likely. The night before - so late it was actually early in the morning - he had taken a pepper-up potion in order to not miss anything, only to unexpectedly get the photographs he needed almost immediately. This left him at loose ends. It would be a few hours still before the potion wore off enough for him to sleep, yet he officially had no business to take care of.
Therefore, he had turned his notebook to the page marked "Errands?" and picked the first task at random, and that was why he entered Scrivenshaft's Quill Shop immediately after it opened on Saturday. He needed a new quill sharpener for the office. All of their quills were becoming quite dull and it was impacting his work performance. Really, it should have been the easiest of errands - grab the same item he always bought, pay for it, back out on the street to pick another errand.
When you were both extremely sleep-deprived and super hyped up on pepper-up potion, though, absolutely nothing was easy or simple. And that was how he ended up with an armful of various items picked up from around the store because they looked really, really interesting, which in turn was how, when he rounded the corner of an aisle and crashed into someone, quite a lot of merchandise tumbled to the floor.
"Oh, Godric," he exclaimed. "I didn't stab you with any quills, did I?"
