RP: Raj goes shopping Who: Raj and OPEN When: May 31, 2010, midday Where: Diagon Alley, What: Raj shopping for clothing and gift for Muggle cousin's wedding Warnings: None. Public/Private: Public
Raj's mother reminded him that morning that he needed to get a new wedding outfit that reflected that he was a big time actor, even though he was only a big time actor in her eyes. At the wedding the most his family and cousins would know he was in a Doctor Who episode, though he was sure his mother would try to find a way to brag about his role on Confessions.
He figured he could find something traditional but actor glamorous that his mother would approve of better in Diagon than in the muggle world. Plus he had more money in Diagon than in outside in the muggle shops. He was really thinking the problem was finding a gift for the wedding. He was thinking maybe the only safe bet would be one of the antique shops, maybe he could find something close to what was on their registry that looked expensive enough to satisfy his mother that also wasn't magically infused with something.
He at least could take his time and browse, maybe have so lunch somewhere. He also wasn't sure he wanted to be out for long periods of time in the public either alone. While he wasn't one of the lead actors in Confessions, he was recognizable and with the next season it sounded like his part was getting bigger. He figured he should savor the little bit of anonymity he still had. Though he still made sure to wear a hat and sunglasses to avoid at least some of the fans following him around. He already caught a couple women staring at him.
He walked by Madam Malkin’s Robes for All Occasions and looked in the window trying to decide if he wanted to try there first or go over to Twillfit & Tattings. He was going to need something a little more custom anyway. He stood there trying to decide how fashionable he needed to go for the wedding.
