Zachary stared at the blood lollipops in disgust, before moving down the shelves. The chilly November weather had cut his walk down the streets of Hogsmeade short, and he had retreated into the sweet shop in desperate need of warm, comfortable air.
A stash of pepper imps caught his eye, and he raised an eyebrow before walking over to them. He hadn't ever gotten to test his theory of Salamanders liking Pepper Imps as much as regular pepper-- With an easy shrug, he picked up a handful and continued down the path, his eyes growing slightly greedy.
His eyes, quite locked on the ever-so-tempting candy, missed the huddled figure just at the end of the shelves and he collided into them with enough force to knock him over, the pepper imps sprawling onto the floor.
"Hey, watch where you're going!" He spat, rubbing his side and gathering a few of the closer sweets that had fallen on the floor in his hands.[/color]

As the boy knocked into Dax he looked up from the floor. His face was one of anger. Steadily he stood up brushed his cloths down.
"Look where your going next time little boy." Dax lifted his eyebrows as a threat.
He then looked around the Slytherin to see a few badges. So he had power i his house. Dax thought and breathed in deeply trying to make himself seem bigger.

Zachary spluttered indignantly, self-consciously brushing off his robes as well, and glared at the other boy. No matter how much taller or older, he was still a measley Hufflepuff.
Giving him a quick once-over, he glared. "Little? Just because I'm no giant like you Hufflepuffs does not mean I'm little." Though, he visibly straightened to his full height, a small scowl on his face.[/color]

Dax found it hard not to laugh in the boys face. He looked absent maidenly around the shop as he spoke.
"Fair enough your not as small as some people." he gave a small smile and looked at the handfuls of sweets the Slytherin had.
With a perplexed look on his face he looked back at the boy.
"So who had the honer of bumping into me then?" He thought it best to find out the name of the the Slytherin simply so he could tell stories about him to his friends.

"You call being knocked to the floor an honour? That house of yours really is completely insane."
With a glare, Zachary fixed his scarf and raised his chin superiorly. "Zachary Daniels, and you are?"
His obvious disadvantage in height made him look quite childish, unbenknownst to him.[/color]

Dax gave a small smile at the boy as he said his name.
"Well then Zachary I'm Dax Simmons." Dax longed to add you're Superior but he thought he best not anger the boy he already had quite a frown on his face.
"Sorry about your peeper imps, but your really should not be charging around the place like that."
His sensible head had turned on and he was looking at Zachary like an angry parent not wanting to shout.

"Maybe you shouldn't be just standing around like a lifeless flobberworm? Ever thought of that?" Zachary said, his scowl deepening.
Then, his eyes caught the strange items Dax had been looking at, and he raised an eyebrow. "What are those, exactly?"[/color]

When Zachary questioned what he had been looking at Dax blushed. He tried to move sideways to avoid him being able to see.
"Noth..Nothing." He stuttered looking around the shop trying to control his nervous. He had been looking at the pink, fluffy sheep sweets and knew that the Slytherin would be likely to tease him about it.

Zachary craned his neck, trying to see over the giant's shoulder before hearing the Hufflepuff stutter. "What on earth-- If it's just candy it can't be that bad--"
He finally shoved his way past the Hufflepuff and stared at the sweets with laughter in his eyes. "Hufflepuffs really are a bunch of wimps-- No matter how tall-- aren't they?"[/color]

As Zachary leaned over to see what it was Dax let out a groan.
“No. were not wimps we just some have simple pleasures. They may look stupid but they taste rather nice.” He turned around and picked one up and handed it to the Slytherin.
“Here try one. You will not regret it.” Dax shot him a cheeky smile and waited for a reaction.

Zachary made a face as the candy was handed to him. "How do I know you haven't poisoned it or something similar?" He said with narrowed eyes. "You Hufflepuff's have gotten vicious over the years." He stared at the sheep with a twitch of his lips, before smirking.
"Simple pleasures?" He let out a snort, before dropping it back onto the shelf, amused. "That particular sweet was clearly invented by a Hufflepuff."[/color]

Dax gave a fake laugh when Zachary mentioned the pink sheep was invented by a Hufflepuff. But then a real smile filled his face.
"Well you know the theory Hufflepuff are meant to be a sweet as honey. But i bet you did not know that a Honey badger is the call kill a human in seconds.“ With that Dax spun around and walked off towards a shelf full of different types of chocolate.
“They can also bite a snake in half in one go as well. So I think you should keep your mouth shut.”

L.C had been listening to the two boys while trying to grab some sugar quills. The bad thing was, they were on the top shelf. Even though her 5'7" frame helped, she couldn't reach them.
"Someone want to help." she asked the boys for two reasons, one to stop them from fighting and two because she really wanted those sugar quills.

Zachary was just on the edge of a retort, when Mericinni interrupted, looking at them both with a bored expression. Staring at her for a moment, he scowled, before his gaze followed hers. The sugar quills lounged carefully on the top shelf, and he raised an eyebrow, turning back to the other Slytherin.
"Not particularly. I don't like to strain myself." [/color]

She poked her head around the edge of a shelf. 'Girl needs help and there is no chivalry left in the world. Brilliant,' she shook her head and chuckled. 'Here... Mericcini, right?' she stood at the far edge of the shelf and bumped it with her hip. The shelf began wobbling slightly and just as it was beginning to tip forward she pushed back on the second-to-top shelf. The entire front row off the top shelf fell forward, raining sugar quills, candy quaffles and cinnamon quacks on everyone in the aisle.
She made a face, 'Usually I'm better about hitting for just one box...' she shrugged. 'Tips and tricks you learn when you're short,' she said before picking up a case of cinnamon quacks and heading over to the 'instant cotton candy' display.
