She had never visited Diagon Alley before, and Tekla was slightly overwhelmed. She had seen countless small magical communities around Europe on her travels, but that was just it - those were small. Diagon Alley was this bustling street with with witches and wizards and warlocks as far as you could see. Nothing at all to the small wizarding community of Sweden, where she had grown up.
She had only arrived to the country last night, having tucked away on a boat in her fox form, and had spent the night making her way to London. She had heard so many great stories about the wizarding community in the United Kingdom, and seeing as it was such a hub of witches and wizards from all over the world it seemed like the perfect place to call her new home.
But first, she needed coffee. Alohomocha seemed like the perfect place to get her daily fix of the black gold, and so that’s where she went. Her hair was a bit too unkempt for her liking, and her moss green robes had ripped slightly at the hem from her travelling, but she felt she wouldn’t be able to do anything about it before she had some caffeine.
After finally figuring out her order (a long black and smoked salmon with cream cheese) she turned to take in her surroundings. The coffee shop was somewhat busy that Saturday, and it took her a while to find a place. There, in the middle of the place, was an empty chair by a small empty table. She hurried over, trying to balance her plate at the same time, and sat down with a sigh. She was starving, and instantly started inhaling her food. She was so focused on eating, that she didn’t notice pieces of fish flying of her fork, landing on the handsome blond wizard, clutching a photograph in his hand, on the table next to her.
