WHO: Moony and Padfoot
WHERE: Sandust
WHEN: TODAY
WARNINGS: Wizard logic
SUMMARY: An intriguing new idea has two grown wizards acting like third years.
FORMAT: Para!

He holds the door open so that the bookstore's owner, one Remus Lupin, can enter, presumably to defend the books from the condiment-coated demon who insists on following him everywhere.
"Well I apologized to the old cow, didn't I? It was an exciting moment, and anyway it's not my fault roast beef has a strong survival instinct! Besides, you need to have something in your hand to gesture properly, you know that."
The two wizards peer around to make sure no one else is around before heading to an amazingly nondescript couple of shelves, which give off a remarkable sense of having absolutely nothing interesting on them. This aura of furious inconspicuousness had the double-bonus of keeping anyone away who had no business reading the books, which were quite fascinating actually if you can practice magic, and instantly attracting the attention of any magically sensitive persons who came into the shop.
Friendly bickering aside, there was an energy to the pair as they examined the shelves that many of their friends and acquaintances would find either exciting or alarming, depending on how well they knew these particular wizards: the Marauders had come upon a Clever Plan.
