[Natasha is just grabbing some less exotic ingredients for class near the older Ravenclaw.]

They should give out nose plugs when people enter.

[He smiles in greeting and chuckles.]

That or try airing out the place once in a while. I swear I think a rat died in here a few hundred years ago and they didn't bottle it up.

[actuallyspeakslatin]

It must have been a rat the size of a troll.

[greenmoonrising]

Or maybe the size of a small dog - even small things can kick up quite the stench.

[actuallyspeakslatin]

That explains why half the closets in Hogwarts smell.

[greenmoonrising]

Been spending a lot of time in the closets?

[actuallyspeakslatin]

You don't have to go in a closet to smell it, you just have to walk by one.

[greenmoonrising]

Sometimes I think your sense of smell is better than mine, and that's scary.

[Shrugs and glances around.]

Did you come by yourself?

[actuallyspeakslatin]

It's not that great, it just means it was extra smelly.

[She picks up a bottle and nods]

My dad is out in Muggle London doing work.

[greenmoonrising]

[Nods with understanding.]

Well, I'm done with my shopping for now... Do you want to go get something to eat?

[actuallyspeakslatin]

Sure, I'm practically done my shopping now. My feet could use a rest.

[greenmoonrising]

C'mon then, we can sit at one of the street cafés and people-watch.

[Holds the door open for her.]

[actuallyspeakslatin]

There are all sorts out today.

[She walks out passed him.]

Thanks.

[greenmoonrising]

You should've seen the lady trying on one of her custom orders at Madame Malkin's. I think that hat was at one point in time a goose.

[Starts walking for the food area.]

[actuallyspeakslatin]

I once saw a set of robes that looked like a porcupine.

What did you feel like eating?
