A Treat For You, A Treat for Me  PV Levi   Closed 
Ellara was absolutely ecstatic, and the young eleven-year-old couldn't help but practically bounce off the walls! She was a witch with magical powers, and not only that, but she had a super cool wand that apparently had a rare wand core made of "Thestral Hair," whatever that was. Her poor dad was probably certifiably tired of the ever-so-energetic girl, but it was her birthday, and so every wish she made was granted to her heart's delight! (Within reason. Unfortunately, school rules stated she wasn't allowed to get a flying broomstick, and dad wasn't down with getting the kitten, no matter how many pouty faces she made.)

So, now Ellara had the run of Diagon Alley, which thought was pretty cleverly named, like the street itself was like a diagonal upward slope, with Gringotts bank at the very end. She had to say, those goblins gave her the creeps, with their ominous warnings and rumored mine carts that led to vaults underneath the whole city. Talk about crazy.

Anyway, after getting all of her required shopping supplies done, it was time for a little bit of fun. The remembrall was the last item she needed to purchase, and while it was already in her dad's hand (and glowing red, for that matter. What did he forget?), all that was left to do was to have fun! Ellara wove her way through the throngs of bustling kids, trying to get a glimpse of the magical items for herself.

Weasley's Wizard Wheezes was full of the coolest things! From love potions to the classic tricks and treats, too cute little purple and pink fluffballs called pygmy puffs (also a no, according to her dad) Ellara had just spotted another trinket and was rushing over to investigate when she felt a small object hit her side. Turning around to investigate, she spotted a young boy with curly hair and a red face staring at her with an apologetic smile and a carton full of Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans.
