Someone New?

Jay scoffed as Wisteria went on another one of her long and emotionless tangents about who the hell knows what. She just nodded along muttering uh huh and nodding her head sarcastically every time Wisteria paused for a breath.
They entered the joke shop that Jay had been exited to go to, although not many of their products were actually allowed to go into Hogwarts, Jay was still exited to go inside to see what mischief she could cook up.
“uh huh yep ok I don’t get the point of what you are saying so if you could just-“ Jay dragged a finger along her lips and mimed locking them “shut the fuck up, that would be amazing” she said, slightly distracted by all the noise and colour.
God she’s annoying, like she is tryna get in my head, make me feel bad about myself
The inside of the joke shop was packed full of people, mainly kids who were buying toys and candy that looked slightly malicious.
“I think some of those make you sneeze a lot…” Jay hummed thoughtfully “and those make you throw up”
There was a special herb called Lobelia that was actually nicknamed ‘pukeweed’. Jay wondered if she could try and recreate the candy using herbs but banished the idea before she could actually make it.

Wisteria ignored Jay and decided to look around the shop. Weasley's Wizard Wheezes was... interesting, to say the least. It was controlled chaos, in a way. There were shelves lining the walls, tilted in crazy directions, and all the items seemed to have minds of their own. Wisteria could also smell the faint scent of... was that gunpowder? Wisteria sniffed the air again.
Gunpowder and farts. Of course, she thought, shaking her head in exasperation but nonetheless enjoying the chaotic but strangely controlled atmosphere.
While Jay was talking about some items she found interesting, Wisteria picked up a Wizard's Chess Set.
I've always wanted one of these... maybe I'll buy it along with my Rememberall. Oh, and maybe some Extendable Ears... and a pack of Exploding Snap... Wisteria couldn't help it. This might be her favorite shop ever, except for Flourish and Blotts.
Jay looked pretty interested in all of this too. Maybe this was a chance to make amends with her.
"What are you planning on getting?" Wisteria asked Jay, not expecting a very nice response. She decided to completely ignore her from now on if Jay responded with some snarky comeback.
Wisteria continued browsing as she waited for Jay's response, completely enthralled by the paradox of how something could be so disorganized yet so organized at the same time.
OOC: No problem, I understand.

"What are you planning on getting?" Wisteria asked Jay, nicely for some reason. Jay turned around and stared at her for a while, a confused look on her face "Uhm? Aren't you..." she started, looking around at the little kids around her and deciding to keep her language clean for now "like some sort of psyco or somthing?" she asked genuinly.
"Or very manipulative..." Jay said, still staring "Either way you definitely tried your best to make me feel like shi-" she paused at the right time, making sure she didn't swear. A mother with brown hair holding her son's hand looked down at her with a slight glare and Jay glared right back but with ten times more intensity and the woman left with her child.
"Besides the point, but why are you all" Jay waved her arms around Wisteria "normal all of a sudden?" she muttered "Like, genuine questions here girl" The shop seemed to move around them, completely ignoring their existence except for the occasional confused glance that came their way every twenty seconds give or take.
The shop was quite loud and Jay wasn't too sure if Wisteria actually heard her or not so she just went back to browsing the shop, there were quite a few items to look at and all of them were an extravaganza or mischief waiting to happen.
Exploding snap and Wizards Chess were just a few of the games and jokes on offer here, there were items to suit and please every mischief maker on earth. Most items were probably banned at Hogwarts and for good reason most likely because of past experiences from students.
Jay remembered her mum telling her stories about some of the pranks she and her classmates used to pull when she was a Hufflepuff in her time at Hogwarts and Jay was looking forward to following in her mother's footsteps.
But before that could happen, Jay needed a rememberall. She didn't go too far to look for one as she scoured the shelves for the glass ball she needed for school, pushing past adults and kids alike, careful not to tread on anyone's toes or elbow anyone in the face. When she found it she jumped up into the air, reaching for it and grabbing ahold of one and landing carefully on the ground before making her way back to Wisteria.

As soon as Wisteria heard Jay call her a "psycho" and "very manipulative" she smothered a laugh. It was one thing for her to be called "very manipulative", but a psycho? Wisteria smirked at the absurdity of it all. She actually took it as somewhat of a compliment.
Wer mit Ungeheuern kämpft, sollte darauf achten, dass er nicht selbst zum Ungeheuer wird. Whoever fights monsters should see to it that he does not become a monster. Nietzsche, you really were a genius, Wisteria thought, smiling.
Just then, Jay's voice snapped her out of her thoughts. She had asked why Wisteria was all normal all of a sudden. Wisteria took her time to reply.
"There is no such thing as normal. All of us are different, and continue becoming even more so. The word "normal" is nothing but a societal construct, forcing us to conform to other people's expectations. But, I'm going to answer to your specific definition of normal. I merely wanted to make amends between us. I personally don't like keeping grudges. They're nothing but nuances, nuances that don't allow me to focus on anyting else." Wisteria paused and waited for Jay's reply as she walked up to the counter with her things and paid for them. She took one last look at the paradox that was known as Weasley's Wizard Wheezes and walked towards the exit.

Jay looked at Wisteria in a sort of, amused but somewhat shocked expression as the girl had said “well there is no such thing as normal”
Jay paused, opened her mouth to say something, closed it again to think and then started laughing. Very loudly. “Oh my gods no SHIT Sherlock!” Jay giggled “should I be calling you captain obvious or something!?”
After about a minute Jay stopped laughing and wiped her eyes “what I really meant is that you aren’t tryna kill me with psychological warfare all of a sudden” she said, tossing the Remeberall in her hand up and down, catching it every time.
The few people who had noticed them before had gone off into the crowd that was growing bigger by the second, it was practically suffocating to stand in there with about one hundred other people stuffed into one room.
Well I’m heading to the checkout, I am SO DONE with this shop, I need to go and get snake food for Rusty anyways.
Trying to shove and push her way around people to make a path to the checkout was quite a struggle but eventually Jay managed to reach the counter and paid for her Rememberall before diving back into the crowd to get to the opposite side of the shop.
When she got to the door, Jay shoved it open and walked out onto the street in delight, savouring the fresh air. The street was a quieter than the shops, about fifty people were looking at the merchandise, walking around and talking loudly to their companions, if they had any.
Not going back into one of those shops, no way. I’m going to the ice cream parlour and the pet shop where I’m meeting Sunny, then I’m going home.
Outside looked much darker compared to the inside of the joke shop, it didn’t have as much colour or life to it, the street just had an old cobblestone road with a few stands of newspapers outside of some of the shops.
“Ok then, ice cream sounds like a nice idea”
