Seventh Seed; [Action] (Forward-dated to later this morning)

[nearlychosen]

[Good morning, Luceti! If you happen to be out around the center of town this morning, you might notice some new... growths decorating the square grouping of shops. Vines spill out from the cracks of the Flower Shop's door by the dozen, twirling and twisting into cursive lettering that begins climbing up the shop's wall and accidentally spills over

[ this more or less make's andrew's day. he's wandering on through the shop square. the past few days have been progressively worse. and now he just needs a nice walk to stretch his legs.

you can imagine his shock and glee when he sees the message spread out over the flower shop. he stops still. admiring it.]

Dude!

[nearlychosen]

[Neville's involved enough in Not Messing Up that a random voice sends him jumping. His head snaps to Andrew, half-expecting it to be Malfoy trolling again before relaxing and offering a small, apologetic smile.] Ah.. You startled me. Good morning!

[likevegeta]

Oops. Sorry!

Morning. [ BRITISH ACCENTS ARE ADORSKI. omg -- wait! He knows you! ] Oh, hey, it's you!

[nearlychosen]

[SPEAKING ENGLISH IN THE MANNER OF THE ENGLISH IS NOT AN ACCENT. That is an American stereotype.]

I would assume so. ...Have we met before? [He's a little upset at the prospect that he's forgotten someone, if only after a casual interaction.]

[Ami, still getting her bearings again in Luceti, happens to be wandering by the shops. She stops to watch the not-quite-impromptu display, and offers Nevilla a bright smile.]

That's amazing! But what is Dumbledore's Army?

[Action]

[nearlychosen]

[It's a smile quite readily returned. Interest already!! This is a good sign!] Oh, it's just a bit of magic. It's something we've been working on at the DA back home, actually. It's a group that works on magical safety.. Protecting one another, defending ourselves -- the sort of stuff that we need 'round here.

Re: [Action]

[no_use_running]

It sounds like us back home.

[Action]

[nearlychosen]

Really? What sorts of things did you do there?

[heavenslament]

[Terra already knows about the DA, of course, but still pauses wide-eyed outside the shop.]

...wow...

[nearlychosen]

[Neville grins as he catches sight of Terra outside the door and steps a foot outside to greet her properly.]

Terra! How have you been?

[heavenslament]

[Terra perks up and smiles.]

I'm fine! That is amazing, Neville.

[tothelibrary]

[ dawn is just... wandering aimlessly around luceti today, trying to figure out where things are. which means she's in time to watch... oh no. no, it can't be. ]

Oh my god.

[nearlychosen]

[Can't be magic? Well of course it can! It's not as skilled as Hermione's, but it's not half bad all things considered!]

Do you suppose it's too flashy?

[tothelibrary]

[ this is dawn's thought process right now: bhfdkjhfsdjhfdjkdfsjsdjsjksdjcdks dumbledore's army.

but the tiny part of her brain left to think logical, non-fangirl thoughts reminds her that blurting out 'oh my god, you're neville longbottom!' would be intensely awkward. ]

No, no! It's, um. Very nice.

[nearlychosen]

[Intensely awkward would not be the word. His name only really gets shouted like that by Death Eaters. It hasn't happened in a while, though. He doesn't really miss it.]

Why thank you! I'm hoping it'll attract a bit of attention for our group. People here really deserve a better chance at defending themselves.

[inabook]

[nearlychosen]

[She's welcome to watch it as long as she'd like, though Neville's keeping an eye on the for for prospective new members. After a while, he'll be peeking out of the shop.]

Good day, Miss!

[inabook]

[nearlychosen]

[He returns the wave cheerfully.] Oh, that? It's not terribly fancy. But if it got your attention, then I'd say it did its job well enough.
