The Shopping Spree Begins

Jan 26, 2008 23:50

Moonette heard the door to her beach house creak open and then click closed. Was it six o’clock already? She glanced at the clock, then quickly took her arm and swept the several miniature silver credit cards off of her desk top and into the top drawer before....

Moonette and Will had been shopping for an hour when Moonette suddenly stopped walking and turned to him.

“Will, I know what I want to get AmamamaWill let out a sigh. “I wish you had thought of that before we’d wandered through fifty shops ( ... )

"Stop being so ridiculous Young(ish) Albus. Just get rid of the soot and stop the romantic crap. Just because Moonette is writing the narrative, there's no need to get so intense. Remember your sexual proclivities (?sp and meaning!) actually don't lead you in that direction (not to mention mine, what with being frigid an' all!). Calm down and get rid of the soot!" Young(ish) Albus laughed and performed a quick cleaning charm. He waved his hand and a tray appeared in front of them with several ("Multiplying" said Young(ish) Albus) glasses and an impressive bottle ("Refilling" said Young(ish) Albus) of red.

LOL, frigid!! You might be frigid, but that doesn't have to stop Young(ish) Albus from being confused about his sexual preference. Good try though. Damn, I wish I didn't have to volunteer at the kids' school this morning. I won't get to my final segment until much later.

Annette, it must have *killed* you to have the scar go to waste - but it was in-character for Will.

LOL - nice try, but I don't think Albus was swayed by TDU's soot-covered gorgeousness - and TDU is obviously more interested in those "multiply" and "refill" charms.

CHK reached out and knocked firmly on the door. She tried not to fidget and give away her nervousness. She just had to get this done ( ... )

With a loud pop CHK and Niall reappeared in a small alley around the corner from the bookshop where they had purchased Berte's present ( ... )

What a wonderful idea! I know Berte likes it, but I love it, too. How wonderful to think that words - yours - Astrid Lindgren - are the real Time-Turners in that they never perish and continue to delight and console as long as there is someone to read them.

CHK moved into the square and took in the scene of carnage. Girlyswot was hanging off Charlie (well that wasn't new CHK thought) Moonette was glaring at Will who was stowing away his wand (that wasn't all that different either CHK thought) Percy and Kinderjedi seemed to be as confused as she and Niall were about the soot and water flowing

LOL - excellent recap of this and all the other parties we've had.

"It seems we missed the excitement." Marcus indicated the far side of the square where quite a crowd had gathered and were being kept at a suitable distance by several uniformed Légion.

Hazel buttoned her jacket against the cool breeze and took his word for it. "Is that smoke? I wonder what--Démîn!An owl swooped up, landing on Marcus's shoulder as a flurry of bystanders passed, discussing with some excitement the recent dragon attack and how the Bureau De La Magie ought to do more about controlling these highly dangerous creatures, and protect citizens ( ... )

”Bill?” Amamama looked around, where did he go? She had finished dressing and was now wearing a deep scarlet robe, the colour turning to a deep plum towards the hem and the end of the pointed sleeves, with gold trim. A light silk chiffon throw in the same plum colour, with deep scarlet, dusty blue and green stripes, draped over her shoulders. Her hair was pulled slightly back, some of it tied into a fancy knot and fastened with a gold clasp, the rest tumbling down her back ( ... )

Rolf gave a shout of pure joy and rushed outside. Amamama felt confused ( ... )

There you go, my rose is pulling triple duty: not only does it give you sweet dreams, it serves as a brooch and perfume spray at the same time. Trust you to discover all its qualities. I like my gift even better now!

Aw - it's a corsage. Love that image of it clinging to you. Your outfit is divine!
