what's up what's up what's up. [ADE]

[William Archer]

Will had never, previous to that day, gone grocery shopping in his life. But now that he was living in Jade's apartment, he felt he had a massive debt to her and therefore, when the fact that the fridge needed restocking was pointed out was brought up that morning, Will had offered his services and attempted to make it seem that he was a pro at grocery shopping. He had to give his mum serious credit for it, though - once he had made it to the shop he kept getting distracted by all the tempting-looking displays and had to force himself to focus multiple times, peering down at the small list in his hands and wandering around with a lost-sheep-like expression on his face.

Anyways, after the grocery shopping experience, he'd decided to pay a call to Flourish and Blotts, the bookshop, laden down with groceries, because he had decided it was high time he actually got a charms book (he'd forgotten to at the start of the year and tried to distract Professor Merryweather every time he got anywhere close to him in the hopes he wouldn't notice. His attempts were futile, however; everyone noticed), seeing as his NEWTs were looming ominously in the not-so-distant future. Sauntering into the shop, bags swinging and bottles in it clinking alarmingly, he double-took when he saw that French bird who didn't like Neil right in front of him. She was turned away a little, and didn't appear to notice him. Smile full of mischief, Will came closer to her as quietly as possible, stopping right behind her. Quick as wink, he hooked a tendril of hair around her ear and shouted, "Boo!" right into it, disregarding the reproachful look the shop assistant shot him.

ooc. - hope this is okay!

[Adélaïde Lamoureux]

Adé was a strange girl. Everyone she knew agreed on that. So, it came as no surprise that she was standing in the middle of a crowded bookstore, her head in a book and her mind completely oblivious to everything going on around her. Doing this was practically a habit of hers - when she found a book she liked, she'd immerse herself completely in it and forget her surroundings. Right now, she was in the middle of a particularly gripping story, and she was turning the pages excitedly, feeling as if she herself was experiencing what the characters were experiencing. She shook her head at a particularly stupid thing the heroine was doing. Why did every single book character have to turn all selfless in the end?

Lost in the book, she didn't notice the door open and shut, even with the noise the person was making. Suddenly, she felt a hand tuck her hair behind her ear and a voice saying 'boo'. She shrieked loudly, completely disorientated and shocked. Feeling sure it would be Neil, she turned around, a stern expression on her face, ready to reprimand him. But instead of seeing Neil, she saw Archer, his best friend. She'd always liked Archer more than she had Neil, and they'd even talked a few times. She smiled in relief. She wasn't ready to face Neil, not since then. "Hi..." she said, her expression still faintly irritated. Though she did like Archer, he'd shocked her and she was definitely going to scold him for that. "You know, I'm not deaf," she said a little irritably. "There was really no need to shout."
