Speech

The planned London trip had never came over the holidays, nor had any word, so Edwin had for the most part accepted it wouldn't happen. That was okay, it had been a hastility put together plan, so perhaps she had forgotten. It may have been fun to explore London some more, see the muggle world alongside someone raised in it, but as summer quickly approached, Edwin had began to look forward to the idea of a summer of nothingness.

The summer of nothingness did not come. Instead, he had discovered a note slipped into his pocket on one of the final days of term, one that spoke cryptically. "Goo-gel maps," He had whsipered to himself in his dorm, as he read the note. He knew who had sent it, of course, but even then was left confused. He was certain he could find this shop eventually, but he could not for the life of him figure out what this 'Google' was and why it had a map. Over the final couple of days of term, he had been like a man possessed, hunting down any muggleborn he could find, trying to discover the answer. He swiftly learnt google was some sort of 'search engine', but the map specifically was a map of everywhere that all could access - how convinent.

Unfortunately, he wasn't sure what the wizarding equivalent was, and so he would have to do it the old fashioned way. Walking aimlessly until he found his destination.

-----------------------------

Come July 10th, Edwin was awake early, standing infront of his wardrobe with a confused expression. Whilst he vaguely understood muggle fashion, having grown up in London and seeing innumerable muggles walking by, it was a much harder task to figure out what he was to wear so that he could pass as a muggle. When he was younger and was taken into London, his parents had often prepared outfits for him, so he had little experience with planning his own things.

After some deliberation, he settled on a pair of jeans and a plain, dark coloured sweatshirt. It seemed safe, it seemed incredibly normal, which was perfect for a wizard who did not wish to stand out. With that obstacle sorted, Edwin had another ahead of him, finding the store. Try as he might, he had not managed to convince his father to take him on side-along apparation and so he would be left to his own devices, having to navigate the metropolis that is London. Thankfully, he had been given a vague area to head to, and so he set out, far earlier than was likely necessary, intent to find this store.

London was hard to navigate on foot, Edwin quickly realised. It was simply too large for this to be practical, automobiles passed by him, so did these much larger, longer automobiles that seemed filled with people. It would be awfully convinent if he knew how they worked, and where they went, but alas, he was forced to continue on foot.

When Novalie arrived at 3pm, Edwin was not in sight, though he was near, being guided by a rather kind old lady who had recognised how lost Edwin had appeared and had insisted on personally escorting Edwin to his destination, which Edwin had agreed to, having no true concept of stranger danger. Upon rounding the corner, Edwin at long last saw the shop ahead, quickly thanking the lady before speed walking down towards the shop.

"Sorry I'm late!" He said, as he approached Nova. "I don't think wi- I mean, we have a version of Goggle maps. So I've just been walking about, trying to ask people where to go, but.." He shook his hand dismissively, he was here now which was all that mattered, even if it had taken him an annoyingly long time.

"Oh, what are these?" He asked, distractedly, as he peered into the windows towards the Vinyls. "Reckon they've got instruments in there, too? Bet it'd be fun to play one of them." As he spoke, he set off towards the stores interest, assuming she would follow after him.
