Title: Sampeling
Description: chocolate, that is...


Alyson Weasley - August 3, 2005 11:24 PM (GMT)
She was a Ravenclaw. What did you expect?

"Mm... Yesh, I 'wike 'dat wan." Aly said through a mouth full of creamy, sweet, sinful fudge. There was a new, young, cute clerk at the counter and Aly had sweet-talked him enough to let her have some sampels before she 'bought some'. Which, she never really intended to do, but he didn't have to know that...

"But.." She said, swallowing the fudge. "I'd like to try some of that first," she said, pointing to a light brown coloured chocolate with little specks of coconut in it, "please.." She said sweetly with a smile. And, as she had expected, the boy cut a little piece off and handed it to her over the counter.

"Thanks." Aly said, then popped the little piece of chocolate in her mouth. Once she had finished it though, she realized that if she ate anymore, she'd probably be seeing her breakfast soon.

"I'll see ya later." She said to the clerk, then smiled and waved as she turned around to look through the rest of the store. Just as she did though, she bumped into the person standing behind her. She landed on her bum with an 'oof', then looked up to see who it was.

Tim Weasley - August 3, 2005 11:48 PM (GMT)
Tim waited patiently for the girl in front of him to leave the counter. She was talking to the boy across the counter and sampling chocolates and other sweets. Tim had grabbed a bag and got one piece of almost every candy in the store. His bag was full and very heavy with the top of a every flavor jellybeans box hanging out.

He had a whole handful of chocolate frogs and a couple fizzing whizbees. Tim started to look at the rack full of candy by him, looking at all the new stuff. The girl that was at the counter turned around and bumped right into Tim his candy flying every were.

Tim fell on his bum and looked right at the girl who knocked him over. She fell on the floor too. "Are you alright,"Tim said holding his half empty bag of candy. He took out his wand and collected the candy in a pile. He scooped the pile up with both hands and stuffed the candy back in the bag.

Sofie Vogeldorf - August 3, 2005 11:52 PM (GMT)
Sofie was browsing the Honeydukes shop. It was the most fantastic sight she'd ever seen! There was nothing like this around Olbrecht were Sofie grew up. She'd never seen so much unusual candy in her life.

She looked at the treasures that she had in her bag, a couple of chocolate frogs, some ice mice, a pack of Bertie Botts Every Flavor Beans, and Fizzing Wizzabees, were among some of the sweets that she had picked out.

Sofie then decided to have a look at the fudge, as there were sure to be many exciting and diverse flavors. She saw a Ravenclaw girl she'd seen around in the common room before at the counter. Just as Sofie was walking towards the counter, Tim Weasley, a Hufflepuff boy she knew stepped infront of her.

However when the girl turned to leave she bumped right into Tim and fell down, Tim fell down as well, and Sofie would have had it not been for the person that she had accidently bumped into, whom she immediately apologized to.

She then turned her attention back to the Ravenclaw and Tim on the floor. She let out a small laugh and said "We can't stand in the same place you know" She held out her hand to introudce herself as well as help the girl up. "Sofie Vogeldorf, third year." And she glanced sideways towards Tim. "Alright there Tim?"

Tim Weasley - August 4, 2005 12:25 AM (GMT)
Tim heard a familiar voice as he scooped his candy back into his bag.
Tim set his bag aside and looked up as he heard his name mentioned. He saw a familiar looking girl from Ravenclaw. "Oh, hi Sofie,"Tim said, his face turning red with embarrassment.

He did not like falling in front of people, it embarrassed him badly ever since he fell down the quiddith staduim stairs. "How have you been,"Tim asked as he stood up balancing his weight on the candy rack. As he stood up he straightened his robes with a quik tug by the collar. He noticed the girl that he ran into still on the floor. "Oops, her let me help you up,"Tim said holding his hand out.

She looks kind of familiar, maybe I have just seen her around the school. He thought to himself. The other people in the store were all looking at them now with worried looks on their faces. Tim smiled still holding out his hand.

Alyson Weasley - August 4, 2005 03:00 AM (GMT)
"Fine, yeah," Aly said, then took Tim's hand when he offered it. She brushed her clothes off as the other girl that joined them introduced herself.

"Nice to meet you, I'm Aly Weasley." She said, shaking Sofie's hand. Her and Tim seemed like they already knew each other, so she took teh liberty of asking the boy's name herself.

"And who would you be?" She asked curiously with a smile. "Ye made me fall on me bum -- I think I've got the right to know yer name." She laughed to show she was joking, though the curiousity was still there. She really needed to meet some new people.

Sofie Vogeldorf - August 4, 2005 03:08 AM (GMT)
Sofie laughed a little when Alyson started joking with Tim.

"Glad to see you're alright Alyson, and he is ye who almost made me fall on my bum too!"

She giggled and pointed over to a rather tall looking boy over in the corner "Had it not been for him so graciously and unknowningly lending me his body I would have surely fallen too."

Sofie smiled and waited for Tim to introduce himself.

Tim Weasley - August 4, 2005 03:12 AM (GMT)
Tim pulled the girl back on her feet an smiled. When she stated her name Tim's smile went into curiosity strucken face. Did she say Weasley, well she does look kind of familiar but is she really a Weasley? Tim questioned himself shaking his head.
"Did you say Aly Weasley,"Tim questioned his eyes getting bigger.

I had to have heard her incorrectly! He said to himself looking at her closely.
Tim had a suprised look still on his face. "Cuase if your a Weasley then we are related some how, Tim Weasley,"he said his eyes still big with curiosity. Tim tried to remember an Aly in his family but could not think of what part of the family she might be from.

Who else do I know in the family? Who else do I know? He questioned himself. Trying to keep a straight face he kept asking question to himself. Is there family I don't know about. Maybe a cousin or something? He questioned again. He shook his head again and waited for a reply.

Alyson Weasley - August 4, 2005 03:24 AM (GMT)
"Weasley, eh?" Aly said, squinting at the boy slightly. She had met her twin sister here at Hogwarts, could this boy really be related to her, too?

"Well, this is weird." Aly said, laughing a bit and shaking her head. "I found my twin here, too, a few years ago... Are you my brother, or something?" She asked jokingly, laughing a bit.

"Who's yer mum?" She asked randomly, wondering if there was any way she would know any other members of his family. They were hers, too, after-all.

Tim Weasley - August 4, 2005 03:57 AM (GMT)
Tim smiled and picked up his bag off the ground. "I really only know my mum as, well mum,"Tim said quite embarrassed that he did not even know his mum's name. He knew his dad's name but that was because he had a goo reputation and every person in the Wizarding World knew him.

He looked at Aly closely, Tim and Aly both had brown hair and Aly did look familiar to Tim. We have to be related some how? Tim questioned himself. His parents had split up and he had not talked to them in a while. He did not know their history before he was born either. That seemed scary to Tim. Aly did look older them Tim did. They could be brother and sister.

What are you thinking you don't know all the info yet, calm down! He told himself calmly.

Alyson Weasley - August 4, 2005 04:11 AM (GMT)
"So.. ye don't know yer mum?" Aly asked curiously, a suspious look on her face. Thsi was just getting too weird... She knew her mum was with someone before her dad, but.. no, it couldn't be...

"Is it Marilyn?" She asked, biting her lower lip slightly. He said he didn't know, but maybe if he heard it, he'd begin to remember a bit. If they both had the same mum, Aly seriously thought she would fall over in shock. Well, either that, or just curse really loudly in surprise.

If they we're related, though... what would change? Her mum never told her she had other kids, so if Tim was her brother.. how many more were there? Would it break up her parents marriage? Aly tried not to think about that anymore, since she didn't even know for sure if this was really him...

Tim Weasley - August 4, 2005 04:22 AM (GMT)
Tim heard Aly say the name Marilyn.Man that soundes to familiar, I know my mum's name started with a Mar sound. Tim thought. He started to get the shakes. Could it be, I know my mum said she dealed with another kid before him. He went back in time in his mind. He remembered the arguements his parents had and they use to say each others names.

Then it processed, the name Marilyn came to mind. He remembered the night his dad had been drinking what muggles called alcohal. Suddenly he heard his dad's voice in his head, he was having a flash back. "Marilyn don't go to him"his dad's voice said before fading out.

"Oh wow,"Tim said his face turning pale. It can't be the same Marilyn could it? She did say she took care of another child before me. He wondered. "My mum's name is Marilyn,"Tim stated.

Alyson Weasley - August 4, 2005 04:35 AM (GMT)
[OOC: Alright, I'll just post it the way we discussed, which means you'll have to edit your post again... but, yeah, this'll work..]

"I-I guess so..." Aly said, at a loss for words. This was simply insane.. Another sibling?! If she haden't come to Hogwarts, she would've only known of one sibling, whom her mum just had a few months ago.

But.. there was only one way to know for sure...

"Who's your dad?" She asked cautiously. If he was the guy who she was thinking, then it would confirm it. There was an uncle she was never to mention in the family.. an uncle who had fooled around with her mum when her and her dad were still only dating.. Him and her father never spoke again, but now it all made sense...

Tim Weasley - August 4, 2005 05:06 AM (GMT)
Tim answered back with great shock.

"My dad's name is George,"he stated blankley.

Why wouldn't my dad tell me about this! He said to himself.

"Do you know my dad,"Tim questioned.
Thoughts were going through his head. He could not make sense of it all. He looked around the store, the others were back to normal shopping now. He then looked at Sofie and then back to Aly.

"This is all just to wierd,"he said aloud. He swung his bag around his hand and looked around the store again.




Alyson Weasley - August 4, 2005 07:12 AM (GMT)
"He's my uncle!" Aly said in shock, a bit louder than she had planned. She got a few funny looks, but she was too distracted to notice. "Oh my god. This.. this is crazy. How--you.. how..." She sighed and shook her head, still trying to process everything.

Aly stayed silent for a while, until Tim spoke again. "Yer tellin' me." She said off-handedly, shaking her head. "I mean, first my parents don't tell me I had a twin sister... now they just absently forget to tell me I have a half brother?!" She knew she was being a bit too loud now, but one could not say she was overreacting. This was huge news; what was she supposed to do?

"Maybe we should go sit down somewhere.. and, I don't know, do.. something.." She still wasn't thinking clearly since she got this news, so the word 'talk' had somehow left her vocabularly temporarily. "You guys wanna go to an ice cream parlor or somethin'?" She asked them both; she mostly just needed to talk to Tim, but she didn't want to exclude Sofie.

"I think I need to sit down.." Aly added, and began heading for the door.

Joe Crow - August 4, 2005 04:52 PM (GMT)
Joe walked into Honeydukes Sweet Store, a fairly large money-bag in his pocket, with the intention of quickly buying a load of Liquorice Snakes, then leaving again before anyone recognised him.

For some strange, unexplainable reason, he would've felt slightly embarassed being seen with a bagful of the Snakes.

Liquorice Snakes were long, snake-looking, pieces of black liqourice which when placed on the tongure, slither around in your mouth, and when you swallowed them, they slithered around in your stomach for a few more minutes before stopping.

Not usually a fan of candy or sweets of any kind, and being one of the few people on Earth who didn't see the appeal of Chocolate, Liqourice Snakes were the only thing that brought Joe to Honeydukes.

As he entered the shop, however, he was met with a sight that he had been hoping not to see.

Sofie Vogeldorf and Tim Weasley were there, with another Ravenclaw who Joe recalled as being called Alyson Weasley.

Wait a minute, AlysonWeasley?Are they related? he thought to himself.

Ducking behind a group of witches who were gossiping about the latest edition of Witch Weekly, Joe made his way to where the Liqourice Snakes were and began placing a load of them into a bag, hoping he wouldn't be seen whilst the others were speaking to each other.

How babyish would it look to be seen with a bagful of sweets? he asked himself.

Then the damned second voice, which seemed to annoying make sense most of the time, said in his mind,

What do you think they are doing here?

How Joe hated it when his sub-conscious decided to give him a hard time.

Artimiss Rose - September 3, 2005 05:58 AM (GMT)
Artimiss had been in the back of the shop for a while. She had been talking to one of the workers. It was one of her big brother's friends. He was extreamly interested in the candy biz, and she just found out that he was now one of the head chefs working there. Kind of the "Willy Wonka" of the Wizarding Sweets. When she walked back out front she noticed a lot of students. A couple were from her house even!

Arti scanned the room. Joe was there, by himself. He looked as if he was hiding. Artimiss laughed to herself as she devised a sneak attack... She crept up behind him as queitly as she could. She leaned in extreamly close behind him and whispered, "You shouldn't try to hide in public places, someone will find you."
