Trance, after stumbling out of the storefront, started towards a wand shop. All the while berating himself.
My first time trying to buy something and not only do I forget the exchange rate, but also almost get scammed!
At least those other girls were there… they, seemed nice. But it was thanks to them he didn’t get ripped off.
Trance wandered into Ollivander’s wand shop, he should probably get one. He went up to the shop-keeper, probably Ollivander. “hey, uh, can I get a wand?”
The shopkeeper looked up at him, “Ah, welcome, I’m Ollivander, at your service. A wand you say? Well you’ve come to the right place”
Ollivander walked over to his many shelves, calling back at Trance, “Now, do you know how this works?” At Trances shaking head he continued, “that’s alright, I’ll hand you a wand, and just give it a good flick, I’ll do the rest”
Trance nodded, “Alright, I… I can do that”
Ollivander got out a small wand, a slightly reddish one. Ollivander smiled “Rowan and unicorn tail, eight inches, rather rigid, try it out”
Trance took the wand, trying to wave it around dramatically, “Wha.. what am I looking for?”
Ollivander sighed, “You’ll know it when you feel it” he took the wand back, “how about… thirteen inches, ash and… a Veela hair. I forgot I had that.”
Trance shrugged. Unicorns? Feela? He didn’t know what they were. He took the wand, staring at it. It was long and dark. He swished it up and down, it seemed flexible enough.
Trance waved it around some more, nothing seeming to happen.
Ollivander reached out for the wand, “that’s to be expected, rather temperamental, these one are, don’t worry though, I have the perfect fit, ebony and dragon heartstring, ten inches.” He reached for the wand.
Just before Ollivander touched the ash wand, a burst of sparks happened, blue and green scattering around the shop.
Trance cringed back, “is… that supposed to happen?”
”Usually no, but exceptions happen. Anyways, that’ll be eight galleons”
Trance nodded, “Alright” he handed over the money, taking his new wand with him.
(figured I’d have fun with the wand”
