Nix looked down at her hand which were filled with five brooms, a firebolt and lightning bolt and a shoot star and then a nimbus 2000 and of course a nimbus 3000 too. Then she had two large bags of fizzing wizzbees and a large handful of about 12 chocolate frogs and a single sugar quill that she had grabbed as gage had picked his own "sugar rush" broom as the packaging read, nix thought it was rather a good name for a sweet and made a mental note of it for future ideas for herself. "I would pay myself if I had....a means of carrying money" nix said as she looked over at her friend before remembering that She had wanted some every flavour beans too but felt bad enough as it was with her hands stuffed with sweets so thought better of asking for any more

"That's all right," said Gage, "I've got enough." He hadn't gone to Hogsmeade for the past several weekends available to students, opting to instead remain behind and work on his flying some more. This had allowed his money which normally was spent quickly to accumulate for a couple of months- as his parents would send him some pocket money once or twice a month to avoid him writing them to ask for any. Gage lead the way to the counter, depositing his stuff beside the register so he could fish his money out of his pockets. "Go on, then," said Gage to Nix, he didn't mind paying for someone else once in a while.

Nix felt a shiver run up her back as she walked over to the counter and put down her collection of sweets before crossing her hands Over her chest and then hanging her head a little. She hated having to ask people for favours or bail outs with money, she felt annoyed at herself for not bringing any money with her but she had the bag jinxed so that it couldn't be summoned. She felt a cool breeze slip up her back and then pulled her cloak a little tighter around her and looked up at gage ,"I'll pay you back as soon as we get back" she said with a small smile as she lifted a hand to scratch at her ear

"Don't stress on it too much," said Gage. He knew that Nix would insist on paying him back even though he wasn't going to miss the money spent on the sweets, he just didn't want to appear stingy, when he was anything but. Gage liked to help out his friends where he could, money was the easiest way for him. Gage supposed that might generate problems as he got older and got himself a real career, he would have to be careful about how much money he loaned and to whom. He handed the cashier the appropriate amount of coins to cover all the sweets, and then handed Nix her bag of things before picking up his own and stuffing the change from the transaction back into his pocket.

Nix took her bag of sweets before a thought hit her ,she would be going back to the school as shadow so she couldn't really be seen carrying a bag of sweets in her mouth as a wolf. She would have to ask gage to take that when he took her wand back again. She shook her head and then felt like flicking herself before her hand slipped as she caught sight if her arm and then gave a small but quiet hiss and shifted her arm back under her robe quickly. "thanks" she said as she lifted her head and tucked her arms behind her back and tried to forget about their scars and their memories, even though they had a habit of coming back to her when ever she felt happiest

Gage swung his bag a bit on his index finger, eager to start picking through his sweets, but figured that he could wait until they got back to the castle. They would give him something to munch on while he finished up some homework he had left until the last minute. Yes, it was true that Gage was very much a procrastinator, but he never saw his schoolwork as being terribly relevant to his planned life. Gage was going to go out for professional Quidditch, he had worked so hard for so long, a position would be as good as his. He had been planning on trying out that spring, but knew his parents would skin him alive if he dropped out of school. "No problem," said Gage.

Nix gave a small grin before walking towards the door and then pulling her cloak tight around her and then slipping outside in to the night again and holding the door open for gage behind her. She looked down the street to see the light in most of the shops and home off aside matchsticks and and a few rare others down the street and nix wondered to herself if Tain was still awake. It was late of course and had it been a holiday where nix wasn't in school then she would have told him to sleep but if course he didn't know she was out of school and in Hogsmead a fair few times a week

Gage stepped out behind Nix, still swinging his bag of sweets on his index finger by the handle. He wasn't sure what they would do next, it was getting late now so most of the shops were beginning to close, he supposed they could go for a butterbeer or something. But if they were to do that they would need to go to the Hog's Head, it charged less for drinks than the Three Broomsticks, and since the new landlady had taken over it was a trifle nicer than it used to be. Quiet, but clean and well cared-for. "All right," said Gage, "I picked Honeyduke's, it's your choice this time."

Nix smiled at gages comment and then turned her head to one side, the moonlight meeting was days away so she couldn't show that off to her friend and she was now getting a little cold. "if I'm honest, Im really rather hungry" she said out loud but more to herself than to gage ,"maybe we could wander to one of the pubs or cafe, or go back to school and get come munchies" she said with a small smile as she focused back on her friend. She looked down to her bag of sweet and found herself wanting to eat them all already but shook her head to discipline herself, she had to save them for when she needed and really wanted them

Gage of course could get behind that, it seemed that he was near always hungry. He hoped that would change as he got older, though he at the very least could keep up his current exercise regime for a long while. "Heading back sounds like a good idea," said Gage, "not that I'm anxious to get back, I just haven't got much money left." At any rate he did have a lot of homework that he still needed to finish. You sound just like the kind of people you can't stand, Gage, he thought to himself. He normally didn't give a damn about homework unless it was due the next day, which had allowed him to get entirely swamped over the past few days.

Nix smiled as gage picked the option she had been hoping for, she was really hungry and felt like popping down to the kitchens to see all the elves again as they were always happy to offer away food. She ignored the fact that her potions essay was once again sitting on her bed with a note on it reading, "DO OR DIE" but nix hated potions and had enough detentions so didnt see the point in rushing back to do it when everyone knew she wouldnt do it anyway. She paused for a moment before taking her wand out of her pocket and mumbling a summoning spell to herself before she remembered she would need a moment to pull on her t-shirt that she'd summonded

"Though if it's all the same to you," said Gage, "I'd rather not take that passage again." He tried to keep his tone as casual as possible, but deep down he knew that his claustrophobia wasn't exactly a secret anymore. Gage didn't like that particular weakness of his to be widespread, he was grateful at least that it wasn't entirely crippling. He just got uneasy, that was all. Gage continued to swing his bag of sweets on his finger, not paying any mind to the fact that he was even doing it. It had become an absent action at this point.

Nix tilted her head to one side before nodding it and then smiling softly ,"I can understand that, I'll just need to grab something and we can walk in the main gate" she said with a smile as she heard the air shift behind her and she laughed. She threw her left hand out and snatched the red t-shirt from the air and then flicked her right hand to tuck her wand in to her combat pockets before her face went a little red as she looked down at the t-shirt in her hand and then she looked around to find somewhere she could pull it on quickly

"All right," said Gage, and then found himself raising his eyebrows as Nix summoned a shirt. Was she topless under her cloak? He wouldn't think that Nix would be that risque, even if her cloak was fastened up all the way. "Taking different kinds of risks now, are we?" asked Gage, a little amused, "you could probably duck down that alley, there, I don't see light that way so there probably aren't windows. I won't peek I promise." He still found himself smiling, hardly able to think that Nix would do something like that. Gage wasn't so much shocked as he was amused to come to that sort of conclusion about his friend.

Nix rolled her eyes at her friend before she leaned forwards and dropped her sweet bag at his feet and turned to the alley before sniggereing to herself ,"I hope for got own safety, you dont peak" she said softly to herself more than to have as she ducked in to the shadows and then stood against one of the cold brick Walls. She quickly pulled her cloak buttons apart and let it drop to the floor before she grabbed her dark red t-shirt and pulled it on over her head and then lifted her hands to pulled her hair from under her shirt and then bent down to grab her cloak and swung it over her shoulders to stop her from shivering even more than she was currently, she had really underestimated the chill in the air. But then again, she would normally have a layer of fur on now as opposed to clothes
