Twillfit and Tattings$5$[1]

[serpy]

*steps inside*

Thank you Lucius

*smiles at Madam Twillfit*

Good evening

[Lucius Malfoy]

*smiles*

Mrs Twillfit, I trust you are well?

This is my most treasured handmaiden, Alexa. I have come to spend lots of money on her.

I do hope you can show us items that would be of interest.

*looks around at the extravagantly decorated boutique*

[Madam Twillfit]

**nods enthusiastically**

Yes yes of course!

**a silver shimmery Magically Measuring Tape slithers off her desk and starts wrapping itself around Alexa, taking her sizes**

How is Narcissa and Draco?

[serpy]

*stands obediently as she is measured, her eyes looking over all the beautiful items*

[Lucius Malfoy]

Fine, fine. Thank you for asking.

*looks at Alexa and follows her gaze to a lovely slinky black thing hanging up, sparkling at them*

*pulls out his Gringotts leather-bound chequebook*

Alexa my dear, just point at what you want. As many things as you like. Try anything on that you wish.

*takes a seat at the desk, a quill poised over a cheque*

[Madam Twillfit]

**smiles**

Good good. I haven't seen Narcissa here lately. Tell her to pop in when she can, I have lots of things to show her!

**nods as the silvery measuring tape slithers back up to her ear and makes a mouth shape to whisper Alexa's measurements in her ear**

Wait a minute my dears...

**dashes to the back to fetch all the pretty things in her size that she has in stock**

[serpy]

*eyes light up*

I like this...and this.......and this.....and that....and that......and this.....

*smiles beautifully, taking all the clothes to the changing room*

*comes back out in her favourite item, to show Lucius*

What do you think?

[Lucius Malfoy]

*contains his... excitement... just well enough*

*nods in approval*

Yes yes, one in every colour my dear.

*smiles*

And the pair of diamond bracelets. Only the best for my staff.

[serpy]

*looks incredibly happy*

And everything else too?

*smiles an angelic smile*

[Lucius Malfoy]

Of course, of course. It's party season after all.

Let's see what Twillfit brings back.

[Madam Twillfit]

**rushes back in with lots of silky things over her arm**

Sorry about the wait! I have these satin slips, just new in this season, I have a few dresses... and these shoes...



**looks up at Alexa holding a load of garments**

Oh! I see you found lots of things! Are you taking them all?

**rushes over to behind her counter, a bit flustered, as Lucius always makes her feel that way whenever he comes into the shop**

**clears her throat and starts adding up the total cost, wondering to herself whether this is her biggest sell all year**

[serpy]

Oh yes!

*smiles at all the bits Madam Twillfit brings out*

I want them all!

*turns to Lucius and gives him her best smile*

[Madam Twillfit]

**huffs, having to keep re-adding the total**

Right, I make that.... 1995 galleons, Mr Malfoy.

**sits her glasses back on the end of her nose**

I gave you a discount...

*smiles as she blushes a little, the garments folding themselves neatly into boxes at the command of her wand**

[Lucius Malfoy]

*doesn't flinch at the total*

*tuts*

Discount? It is very kind of you Mrs Twillfit but I do not need a discount. Thank you.

*smiles and writes out the amount, adding much more to the total than her figure*

*signs with a flourish and hands her the cheque*

*Levitates the boxes upwards*

Right, Miss Serpente, ready to go?

*nods at Twillfit and smiles*

It has been a pleasure... I bid you good night?

[Madam Twillfit]

**smiles shyly**

Of course you don't no offence meant Mr Malfoy!

It was good to see you again and meet your maiden here!

Please, use my fireplace to get home rather than step outside on this cold night!

*gestures to the back office, where the fireplace is**
