OOC: Sorry for the bad post, but Im new to really RPing on the site and just trying to get to know a few new people. Sorry again!
Bustling Bustling Bustling. Diagon Alley was full of life, as always. Students running around trying to get their shopping done, little children with their mother’s in tow. At one point every student had to visit here, something had to be bought.
And Roan Aliagh was no exception. She had finally left her hideout in the library to pick some things up with the money her parents sent her. She took a few steps down the busy street, very calmly, her purse swinging at her side. With an inward sigh she realized she didn’t know where she was going, and she wanted to finish her shopping as soon as possible. So to stall before the moment she had to ask someone for help, she took out her list and read it.
Things to do while on Diagon Alley: Visit the Book Store and choose 4 new books Go and buy and owl or another pet Go to Ollivanders and get a new wand
She hadn’t had the courage to come down since she came there, and she really wanted those books most of all. Her parents had specifically told her to buy those as her birthday present. The Owl could wait, but she wanted to have one so she could send more letters at will. It didn’t seem right to use the school’s owls when she could afford her own. And she had been using her mother’s old wand for the last month, it had worked well enough, but all the same, it would be good to have her own.
So she folded up the list and read the shop titles finding Magical Tomes and Pages. A book store. So she opened the door and walked in, her long purple jacket flowing behind her, ready to scan the shelves for a good read.

Persephone had been walking around Diagon Alley all day. She loved to go to the different stores and see the new things there, and especially the book stores. There was nothing she liked more than reading...well except Quiddtich.
She walked into one of her favorite stores. She really wasn't paying much attention to the students around her. She ran full into someone, and fell down.
Her green eyes looked up to see who she had ran into. Her silver blonde hair dancing around her body, and fanning out on the floor when she fell. She pulled herself up, and at the height of five foot, looked at the girl. It was hard to think that Sephe was sixtee.
"Oh. I'm sorry! Are you ok?"

Rereading. That's what she was sent to do, and find the man by the name of Kristofer Lembarg. The Ministress, Kiki Michaels, had mentioned he'd be somewhere in Diagon Alley, but his true whereabouts were sadly unknown to the Ministry, and so Carmen had offered to search for him, with the document at hand. "Oh. I'm sorry! Are you ok?" came the rushed questioning after a collision sounded only a few metres away.
Through the bustling crowd the blue-haired girl was easy to spot, but Sephe was a little harder to find. Nevertheless, she was found by her blue eyes. Slightly tall for her age, the girl tucked the parchment into her cloak pocket and locked it shut with her wand, she waded through the bustling people over toward Persephone and the girl she was apologising to. "Oi!"
Still no response. "Hey Persephone!" After a few more moments, Carmen managed to reach the two, and she smiled. "Hi! I'm Carmen," she paused, taking note of the list she held, "you're heading to Magic Horizons aren't you? We're both from there!"

Persephone smiled when she saw Carmen. It was nice to see, though she had a sneaking suspcion that Carmen was "at work". She didn't mind that though, but was glad to see her friend.
Persephone's green eyes caught the piece of paper and she smiled. It seemed that Carmen's suspcion was true.
"Cool!"

Roan was about to walk into the book store when a girl ran right into her. She stumbled a bit, but managed to keep herself from falling over. Her head spun around to look at the girl who had ran into her as she picked herself off the ground. Roan found herself looking down a few inches to the girl.
""Oh. I'm sorry! Are you ok?""
"Im fine, Im fine. No worries!" Roan said with half a laugh? Was she ok? She wasnt the one who just got knocked to the ground, Roan was more worried if this young lady was ok. She didnt want to be responsible for someone getting injured.
While making sure the girl was ok, her eye caught another person with blue hair coming towards her, not easy to miss. She seemed to be calling out to the blonde girl in front of her. They appeared to be friends by the way they acted around each other, obviously from the school.
"Hi! I'm Carmen, you're heading to Magic Horizons aren't you? We're both from there!"
"I'm Roan, and yes Im from Magic Horizons. Hufflepuff house. Im just going in here to pick up a...few...books." Roan said startled by the friendlyness of the girl...Carmen...yes, that was her name. So Roan sat there quiet, not sure if it would be rude to go away or butt into the conversation at hand.

Catching Sephe's eyes as she attempted to read the parchment from in her pocket, Carmen grinned. "Yeah, I'm doing my work locally," she replied to Persephone's non-existant question. It didn't matter if she told her friend where she worked and who for, but definately not in such a crowded place, and too public as well.
So she was from hufflepuff? "Wow! I'm from Hufflepuff too! I can take you there, of course with Sephe too, later once you've gotten your stuff if you want!" Her clear Australian accent almost literally poking out of her words. Taking note, it was probably a usual idea that others would be a little shocked with Carmen. But there were many more to come, with the wild Hufflepuffs Roan didn't know. "Sorry if I'm freaking you out! I'll meet you back at Hogs- wait, are you a first year?"

ooc: I know my character is sorta new here, but I dunno, this may be confusing, because if I were to make her a 1st year, she would be like...10....and she is 14, so thats a 4th year. So yeah, confusing, maybe only to me, but if Im wrong about any of ^ tell me and Ill go to the wonderful "backspace" button, RP person's best friend.
BIC:
"No, Im not a 1st year, Im a 4th year here. Im just in Diagon Alley because it is the best place to shop. Its nice to meet another Hufflepuff though. If you arent too busy, you are welcome to join me. I havnt really met anyone at the school yet" Roan said hopefully. Maybe it wouldnt be a bad thing to actually meet someone. Books were good friends, but they couldnt replace real people. She tucked the few strands of brown hair that were escaping their hair tie behind her ear, and looked around the alley, letting the 2 girls talk, and trying to stay out of the way.
ooc: ugh, crappy post *kick muse, who is not being good right now*

(Ooc: Y'know, I'm not sure myself! Carmen's 16, but she arrived this year. So that must make her a 6th year? I must go search the answer before I reply, and let you know as well as myself! *scuttles off with orange crayon*)

ooc: some people have characters that are older than the first year age, but they say that they got their "powers late" so their first years. I dunno. Mines a sixth year though....
bic:
Persephone listened as Carmen talked to Roan. Sephe was surprised to hear that Roan was Hufflepuff; thought that she might be a Ravenclaw. But Ravenclaws were hard to come by these days.
"I'm a Ravenclaw. Not that bad, and were not as geekish as most people think. Actually...were a lot of fun."
She thought about the parties that were held in secret and the pranks that were planned in the common room. Truly they were not what they were expected to be, well not all of them.
