Caveat

Whilst we naturally strive for optimal customer satisfaction, it has rightly been said, by our owner no less, that "the wand chooses the wizard", and thus, while assiduously sought, customer contentment, sadly, cannot be guaranteed.

Roleplay (here or in the Backroom)

Ellie

EllieThirdYear
ellie lich - ravenclaw, third year ☆ lost in verona
- “even this joy will bleed; but pain can sometimes help you feel good.”

An air of wariness hangs about Ellie as she enters the somewhat unfamiliar store; apparently the wand she had in Australia would no longer be fit in England (she had no idea why). The store at first glance seems empty, but a tense feeling in her muscles tells her it was indeed occupied. "Hello?"


Arielle

ArielleBean
arielle bourgeois - gryffindor fourth year ☆ sass, class, a bit of smartass
- “out with the old and in with the new, take out the trash, get rid - rid of you.”
Message Me - 18:11, April 26, 2017 (UTC)
Arielle wanders into the store; her mother had told her it sold the best wands in England, and besides, it was a new wand for a new start, right? "Hi?" The young Frenchwoman leans against the vacant desk to see if anyone is in. If they aren't, there are enough other supplies to be bought (like ice cream, clearly key to her education) that she could come back later.


Levina

LevinaFirstYear
levina köhler - hufflepuff, first year ☆ wanderlust artist

The bell on the door tinkles cheerfully as the first-year-to-be practically bounces into the wand shop, staring around at the shelves with wide eyes. Her usually braided hair is left to fall down her back (mostly because she liked to fiddle with things and undo it), and she looks around corners curiously. "Hallo?"


Elissa

Elissa
Elissa Brandt - Mistress of Disguises • Arcana Alliance's Spy's Guild Chief
- "This gun's for hire even if we're just dancing in the dark,"
Message Me - 16:21, February 17, 2017 (UTC)
Despite not wanting to show her face so publicly, she needs a new wand. Her previous one no longer functioned well, something she couldn't afford. "Hello?" Sounding as confident as she looked, the German blonde sought out Ollivander.

The wandmaker was already in front, organizing a few different displays and he turns when he sees the young woman. "Welcome to Ollivanders, my dear. Garrick Ollivander, at your service."

She smiles, acknowledging him with a nod. "I seek a new wand. My former one doesn't... serve me well, anymore, so to say."

"What seems to be the trouble with it?" he asked, moving behind the counter.

"I can't cast spells as smoothly anymore. It feels as if it's... unbalanced."

He nodded. "Very well... to find a new mate, it helps if I first know something about you. So if you wouldn't mind providing me some details about what makes you, you. Your history... significant events that may have changed you..."

"Do we have some form of shop owner slash customer confidentiality?" she asks, her tone joking (though she's really, really not).

He quirked an eyebrow. "There's no one else in here at the moment... you may speak freely."

OOC: If she incriminates herself... depending on what it is, he may report it?

She knows better than to get herself tangled up with the authorities, so she plays it off with a smile, adopting a relaxed posture. "Well... I attended Durmstrang. Mutter left my family when I was just a babe to start fresh. Vater... well, he wasn't a good man. I attended Durmstrang and excelled in Potions - and dueling, for that matter. I found out I had a half-brother in fourth year, but he disappeared without a trace shortly after my graduation," she pauses. She recognizes can't elaborate further than that, so she makes a swift change in the conversation's direction. "I like to duel. I'm adept at making potions, even the hardest ones there are. I can be sneaky and secretive, but I just like to keep my matters private, I suppose," she shrugs.

"Its usefulness, definitely. Depending on the potion, you could heal someone so much as you could make them suffer. You could pass for someone else, you could unlock different parts of your brain you've never used before. The list of its uses is endless."

"Unwavering loyalty, always being there for me, not having a problem with being my support system, never doubting me, etcetera etcetera," she lists off without hesitance; she has thought this out, clearly.

He nodded. "Very well, let us make our first attempt at a match." He turns and carefully pulls a box from the bottom of a pile, leaving the stack intact. He presents the box to her. "Hawthorn, and Unicorn Hair."

She nods and takes the wand, handling it with care since it's still not her own. She knows how this works, so she doesn't wait for him, giving it a flick.

A white light sweeps around her, seemingly disguising her from view... but a feeling of safety washes over her.

He was already at the front, waving good-bye to his previous customer, when the girls came in. He gave them a smile. "How might I help you ladies today?"
