I Scream You Scream | Idele

[Peggy Duncan]

In the bustling town of Hogsmeade, Peggy Duncan, the eccentric and bubbly witch with a penchant for treats made her way through the cobbled streets towards Honeydukes, the legendary sweet haven. Clad in her signature mismatched socks and a handmade pom pom crown perched atop her head, she bounced with excitement. The promise of a unique treat had her heart aflutter – the famed no-melt ice cream, which she’d been thinking about for weeks.

Upon reaching Honeydukes, Peggy's eyes widened in wonder as she spotted the enchanting display of sweets. Her heart raced with anticipation as she eagerly asked for the no-melt ice cream from the shopkeeper and handed over her galleons.

This particular ice cream was not your ordinary scoop – it defied the laws of nature and stayed frozen regardless of temperature! Peggy couldn't resist taking a daring lick as she sauntered out of the shop, and her taste buds were met with an explosion of flavours that left her grinning with delight.

Her journey took an unforeseen turn as she quite literally bumped into a fellow student from LIFE. Startled by the sudden collision, the ice cream soared through the air in a graceful arc before landing right on the girl’s shoulder with a splatter.

"Oh, Merlin's beard! I am so sorry!" Peggy exclaimed, her cheeks flushed with embarrassment as she stared at the mess she’d made on the poor Ravenclaw.

WITH HOURS TURNING INTO DAYS and days into weeks, Idele's once busy schedule soon thinned out at the demand of her mother. Most days Idele would spend by her sister baking delicious pastries, or bugging her elder brother with tutoring sessions, or even doing the same with older students such as Shiloh Fleming. But with her mother complaining about how little time she had spent at home, the youngest Vector was 'forced' to cut her free time.

Funnily enough, she had convinced her mother to allow her to go out to collect a few treats for herself and her brothers, especially since Honeydukes was so close to their family home. Sighing as she turned the corner, knowing that the store would be up ahead, Idele wished she fought a little harder regarding spending time with her elder sister and aunt.

She enjoyed learning from both Nova and Decima, utilising the skill that many Vectors found ease within, but here she was, offering to go out of her way to do something their house elf would usually do. In the midst of her thoughts however, what the Vector didn't anticipate to happen..happened. A normal collision with someone - an adult no less, fairly common - yet the wonderful addition of smushed ice cream on her shoulder and over her hair.

"What..the actual.." As her head lifted, to see who was responsible for such a thing, Idele didn't anticipate to see a recognisable face. Yet her name was on the tip of the Vector's tongue. "My mum's gonna kill me.." She murmured instead, letting the ice cream settle on her.

sorry for the late reply!

Peggy’s pom pom crown was slightly askew from the collision, and she blinked in surprise as she took in the scene before her. Ice cream smeared on the girl’s shoulder and hair, and Peggy repeated herself a few more times awkwardly, her voice filled with genuine regret, “Aw no, I’m sorry. So sorry about that…”

After a moment that seemed to drag on during which Peggy simply stared at the mess in disbelief, she eventually reached into her pocket and produced a colourful handkerchief embroidered with cheerful dancing badgers.

“Can I buy you some sweets? As a sorry present? Anything you like…” she offered the girl remorsefully before adding “So long as it’s a galleon or less.” Peggy did have a rather modest allowance after all.

The girl announced that her mother was gonna kill her, and Peggy immediately reached out and began dabbing Idele’s shoulder with the hanky in an attempt to clean up the mess, almost as if she took the comment literally.

People passing by shot the odd look at the duo, and a small group of boys from MAGIC snickered as they passed, joking amongst themselves at the scene they’d witnessed. Peggy generally didn’t clock it when she was the butt of someone’s joke, so she wouldn’t have been able to tell if they were amused by the ice cream all over Idele, or by Peggy standing clumsily with an empty cone in one hand while the other reached out to wipe it off her.

SWEETS? AS AN APOLOGY? IDELE was sure she was far from the child she used to be. Sweets, chocolates or sugary pastries were not enough for her to forget such a stupid thing. Of course, magic could help clean up the evidence, revert to how she looked like before, but the embarrassment was still there. And the smell no less.

"Are you actually sorry?" The Vector asked, letting the ice cream begin to drip from her hair and shoulders while the lady patted at her head with a hanky. More people were passing by, even a few younger boys from MAGIC that Idele had recognised.

Merlin, what a long day this was due to be. "God, don't you know a charm or something to clean this up? It's embarrassing standing around, having a lady pat my head with a hanky like she's cleaning a dogs wet paw."
