"sort of like you did the other night only much less impressive" Ashley suddenly looked very grave and serious she took Thorfinn's hands and stared up at him in complete admiration "thank you so much for helping Soleus I-I don't know what I would have done if if you weren't there" she smiled sheepishly and leaned in kissing his cheek softly "I-I really care about Soleus, I know it's sort of your job and everything but still it meant a lot to me"

He blinked in surprise at her, then smirked & let his hand rest against her hip when she leaned in, not pulling away when she lowered her head from his face. "Well, like you said. Sort of my job." he gave her a small smile, showing her that he wasn't snubbing her gratefulness.

Ashley blushed and looked down at her feet smiling shyly at their closeness "it doesn't make what you did any less amazing" she held his gaze for a few moments before she realized she was practically swooning, she shook her head snapping herself out of it clearing her throat "so..telephone.." she looked around curiously for what she knew to be from her textbook called a phone booth.

"I need to buy one." he pinched two fingers together in gesture, "A small one." he paused, "Well, not like, this small." he continued his hand gesture, "but, like, pocket-sized. Those are a thing, right?" he grabbed her arm quickly & pointed to a man farther down the block who was talking in a hurried, serious tone, into a cell-phone. "THAT. ONE OF THOSE." he hissed urgently.

ooc: so srs question tho is this set in the 90's with like those big ass cellphones or Present day?
Ashley bit on her lower lip and giggled "oh!" she shushed Thorfinn and crinkled up her nose shyly "I-I don't know how you are going to get one they cost quite a bit of um...oh what are they called dollars...." she widened her eyes shyly when the man looked over at her and smiled at him bashfully oblivious then looked away back at Thorfinn chewing on her lower lip and playing with a piece of hair from her ponytail trying to think.

"Pounds." he corrected, beaming like a student that had just been given a gold star on his macaroni artwork. "We have pounds here. See?" he held out his hand, a few crumpled bills & coins sitting there. "And it'll be fine. If you can find me a store, I can get one." he insisted. ooc.

ooc: still didn't tell me LOL
Ashley winced and smacked herself on the forehead "oh right! thats for-" she cut herself off and flapped a hand "doesn't matter" nodding along she paused and cocked an eyebrow curiously at Thorfinn she would never ask but seeing how he was living on her uncles couch she had to wonder where he had been able to find muggle money and so much of it for that matter "ok well lets go and have a look and see if we can find one..."

He didn't want to mention that he'd likely be hexing the shop owner into heavily undercharging him, he'd sort that out when he got there. Instead he just fell into step beside her & glanced at her & her outfit again, giving her a small smirk & looking away. ooc. 90s, set in the sixth book. The giant ghetto phones were pretty early 90s, like '92-ish? so the mobile phones would still be pretty hilarious & ugly but not brick-sized. :3

"Nothing."
He cleared his throat & smirked before looking at her again. "Just.. you're dressed different." he pointed out.

"Oh..." Ashley looked down at herself and smiled with a shrug "I wanted to blend In this is how girls my age dress apparently" she looked down at herself then back up at thorfinn innocently "do I stick out like a sore thumb?" She asked.

"Uhm." he looked around - she was right, she looked like most of the other girls wandering around on the street. He couldn't tell her classmates apart from the civilians. "No, I don't think you do." he gave her a small, encouraging look. "You're asking the wrong person, though."

Ashley shrugged and smiled "well as long as I don't look bad or anything" she turned away from him shyly to look around at the stores listed trying to find a place that might sell a cellphone.

"Never." he promised, nudging her softly with his arm & smirking at her charmingly.

Ashley let out a tiny shy giggle and scoffed "psshh" she flapped a hand with a shy smile once again then pointed "hey is that one?" she asked pointing to a small store stationed on the corner of a street.
