Melvus hadn’t realized how popular he’d be. Already there were two students asking him questions, to be fair though - only one was in relation to the school list while the other was someone else, seemingly equally interested in a good read. “I rather enjoy reading about charms and other enchantments. Mum owns Charming Charms and Other Oddities here in Diagon Alley. I’ve been exposed to them since I could understand what magic was.”
There was a tap on his shoulder and he turned to the other student, a blond-haired girl of similar age. She’d been asking about help with the books and had introduced herself as Charlie. “Hi, I’m Mel. I don’t mind helping you out. Have you collected any books yet? Or are we starting from the top?” He realized something all of a sudden, “Just a moment.” He quickly made his way to his father’s side and tugged on his sleeve.
“What is it?” He didn’t seem annoyed, but he was pulled out of conversation.
“My books are on the end of the counter over there -” Melvus pointed at them, “I’m going to help another student find their books, if we have time?” His father nodded and Mel made his way back over to Charlie. “I’m ready to help.”
