Warnings? What does the future hold?
Padma felt a little ashamed of herself when she retreated to her favorite corner in Flourish & Blott's with Aster Song's latest - the original English and a German translation, as she missed the language - only to suffer quiet indignation at the nook's having been transformed into a magazine lounge, inspired by the recent influx of Muggle culture. Flourish & Blott's was meant to be a proper bookshop; what next, music spheres and greeting cards?
Still, she was overreacting, and balked at the thought of being anything less than open minded when it came to cultural change. That there was talk of football outside of Quality Quidditch Supplies, or Guinness served at the Leaky Cauldron was of no concern whatsoever, and perhaps healthy cross-cultural exchange. That her books were not off limits perturbed but did not surprise, not really.
And so she stood a little lost, books in hand, her grimace at a particularly graphic animation on the cover of a magazine pronounced upon her delicate features.
