where: Honeydukes
who: Otto and Bailey ( @spellbxnd )
Otto really did like his job. He probably looked bored out of his mind while he was bagging and ringing up sweets all day - but really, he always had a vacant expression. That was just his face. So if you asked him, yeah. He liked his job.
It paid well enough. He got to try out most of the sweets. It was interesting, and he could often people-watch during the quiet hours. He’d watch the people who strolled through the streets of Hogsmeade, imagining what they might be thinking about or discussing. Coming up with the craziest scenarios he could.
He was watching a woman discuss something fervently with another man. She was probably harbouring a dragon in her basement, and was more than likely in the middle of begging the man (her brother, he reckoned) for help.
“Should just let the poor thing free,” he muttered, popping another Bertie Bott’s bean into his mouth. He grimaced; earwax.
“Oh hey, Bailey,” he said, as the woman in question entered the main floor from the back of the shop, “What are you up to?”
