As snow fell from the sky above, Victoire walked through Diagon Alley with purpose. Although Christmas had just come and went, and everyone around her was spoiled, there was one little girl that Vic hadn't treated. That girl was her very best friend Gin - a snowy owl. Gin, or Ginger as Victoire had named her originally, celebrated her birthday on the fifth of January each year. Well, really, Victoire celebrated Gin's birthday and Gin simply gobbled up some delicious treats. Her owl had come to expect this event every year and every year Vic came through. Being the fourth of January, Victoire set out from her flat in Hogsmeade and traveled to Diagon Alley to the place that Gin once called home - Eeylops Owl Emporium.
Walking into the shop, Vic grinned at the familiar face behind the cash register. "Hey!" she cheered, walking to the woman and shaking her hand. Victoire made small talk before finally receiving a bag of owl treats for Gin. She knew Gin would absolutely go ecstatic over them, which made Vic, in turn, happy. Gin had been her buddy for a long time - since her first year actually - and so the two had become best chums. If there was anyone who wouldn't judge her, betray her, or lie to her, it was Gin. Teddy followed behind her in line of both importance and trustworthiness.
Tor made a little more small talk and finally was able to weasel away from her old friend. As she made her way out of the shop, however, she accidentally bumped into the shoulder of a stranger and fell backwards onto the icy street. "I'm so sorry," she muttered as she attempted to get up, having trouble due to the slick nature of the street and inability to get a good grasp to push herself upward. "I'm not usually so clumsy," Victoire chuckled, looking up at the man she'd accidentally run into. As she studied his face, she couldn't help but grin. Accident or not, he was definitely worth bumping into.
