Cho Floo'd to Leaky from her home (and didn't that phrase still trip her up when she let herself think about it) with Reggie held firmly in her arms. As always, he objected strenuously to the indignity of travel via fireplace. It wasn't her favorite way to travel either, but as Apparation was still barred from her, there was little choice to be had in the matter.
After soothing her familiar as best as she could, she head out down the Alley with Reggie curled 'round and 'round her throat so he could hide as much of his body under her loose hair as possible. While he tolerated the cold quite well for tropical creature, since losing her to Azkaban he never let an excuse pass to cuddle as close to her as he could.
The holiday decorations were going up along Diagon Alley in fits and starts. It was a sad echo of her childhood memories and a stark reminder off all those whom she missed so dearly. She'd long prided herself on having all of her Christmas shopping done by mid-November, but this year she'd not so much as made out a list. Her heart simply was not in it. She knew she would have to at least make the effort, but that was a problem for another day.
She was grateful to slip into the wand shop out of the wind and out of sight of the garland hanging limply from the lampposts. "Mr Ollivander?" she called.
