Potioneer to potioneer (Rosalie Blanchard)

Brant looked at his pouch it's contents had grown less and less over time and he now found himself in need of restocking some potions and ingredients for more. With a sigh he threw on his jacket and battered khaki green green potions bag and headed out into the alley below his apartment, his hair ruffled with the soft breeze that blew through the alley that day.

As he walked he checked in all the windows seeing very little in the way of the ingredients  that he needed. That was until he saw a small shop tucked away. Walking over he smile seeing several baskets of leaves and flowers he could use inside. Pushing open the door he heard the tinkle of the small brass bell above it.

“ Hello?” He called out as he moved past several aromatic baskets towards the main desk.

Rosalie was alone in the shop for the 4 days now. It was funny, though because owners didn't really feel the need to be here. Katrien didn't show up with the excuse that she needs to be alone in order to improve her potions and when Katrien isn't here, Echo isn't as well. It was funny, everyone knew Echo and Katrien are past now when she came back to her husband but Echo just didn't lose the hope.

To be honest, Rosalie likes days when she is alone her because if Katrien and Echo are here at the same time, there is always some kind of drama following them.
She was sorting ingredients when she heard the tinkle of the bell and just a few seconds after that, the voice.

She out the smile on her face and went to see who it is.
"Hello and welcome. Can I help you?"

Brant smiled hearing a female voice , he placed the dried leaves back in the basket and walked over to the main desk “ yeah, I need some ingredients, um.. Acromantula Venom, six Ashwinder eggs, Aconite, yes for a wolfsbane potion, also a feather of the Jobberknoll among other things , listen if I give you the list, its quiet extensive, can you get them sent to the address?” He asked taking the list our from his inner pocket and opening it to pass to her across the counter.

“Its good to see some one with decent ingredients and not dried out or shrivelled up remnants.” he said looking at several baskets filled with Nightshade leaves and flowers.

Rosalie nodded and looked at the man "Just give me one second so I can take a paper and pencil" but then before she even got a chance to find it he suggested to give her a list.
"That would work, we can send it to your address later today" she smiled and took a list from the man.
She started reading to see if they have everything and then she looked at him again.
"We have everything from the list. Just leave your address and you will get everything."

Rosalie looked at him and smiled.
"Thank you. Owners are potioneers, as well as me so we want this store to have everything that people may need for their potions." The truth she didn't know was the fact that this store was just the mask for making drugs, but after all, Echo and Katrien has a lot of money because they sell drugs so this store has everything thanks to that.

He nodded when she said she could send it to the address later that day, reaching into his breast pocket he took out his card with the address on “ Here, this is the address.” He said and slid it across to her. He smiled as she spoke and nodded his head again “ Its about time, this alley lacked a decent potion ingredients supplies shop.” He said “ but who are the owners?” He asked out of curiosity, oh I'm only asking because I travel a lot so come across very exotic plants and flowers useful for potions and such.” He said looking at a cauldron that hung next to him. He moved to a small rack of oils and picked one up to check it out.

Rosalie took a card with the address and put it next to the bag with all ingredients he decided to buy. She knew it was her duty to deliver it to his address but it wasn't a problem since she had a car. It was unusual for witch or wizard to have a car but she found it very helpful since she has a small kid.
"Owners are Echo Sheridan and Katrien Faulkner" she smiled while speaking about Echo. It was the just bad habit and she couldn't help herself about that.
"They are both Potions Masters. They went to Muggle's University and studied chemistry so they always connect that and knowledge from Hogwarts" she didn't know for what they use their knowledge, of course. If she knew she probably wouldn't work here.

"What about you? Do you work as a Potioneer or this is just a hobby?" she smiled.

Brant chuckled and smiled at her as he turned to face her “ I'm a full time potioneer for the Lupin family” He said not giving away too much “ I'm learning from Robert Lupin himself.” He had heard her mention the owners and nodded “ I went to the University of Granada in Spain, the rest was through different museums, travel and my family, we kinda have a family business where potions and well cooking is concerned, since we're a rather large spread out family.” He moved to a small flower and smelt it before replacing it and moving to a row of small vials.

“Is this Essence of comfrey?” he asked “ Its used in organic gardening and herbal medicine, I use it for healing potions.” he said holding up the bottle to the light to inspect the yellow liquid that flowed around inside as he moved it “ exceptional quality.” he then placed it back on the shelf with others.

Rosalie turned to the man and smiled.
"That must be nice. I work here as a potioneer and seller" she moved one bottle with white liquid back to the shelf.
"It's nice working here, especially since I have great and really talented bosses. I always can learn something from them" she shrugged.
"Wow, I see you really had fulfilled life. I didn't travel a lot, but I lived in Russia for more than 3 years. And now I'm back here with my son. I really missed London" she smiled and looked at the bottle in his hand.
"It is, it's great for the" but then he finished and she just smiled and nodded. "You are right, I use it a lot as well, it's good for even the ordinary cold when my son is sick" she smiled and lend a hand toward him.

"I'm Rosalie, by the way." she smiled.

Brant smiled and took her hand and leaned down as he kissed the back of it. “ Brant Ezekiel Crawford at your service.” He said as he let go of her hand and stepped back slightly. “ I agree it is good for colds as well, I have a friend who is some what cold intolerant and comes down with the sniffles as soon as it gets cold.” Brant chuckled and shook his head gently “ I have told him again and again wear something warm and you'd not come down with colds, but being a..” he paused at whether he should continue he altered his words “ Man of a certain affliction, he won't listen.” Now he looked at his list that lay on the counter in front of her.

“So do you think any of the ingredients will be difficult to obtain, I wouldn't want anyone injured trying to get them?” He said as a worried look crossed his face.

Rosalie smiled and looked at him. It was years since someone kissed her hand, it was kinda nice.
"Nice to meet you Brant" she smiled and frowned when she heard his words.
"I know how it was. My son always gets cold when it's cold outside. I even tried to put some extra clothes on him in order to keep him warm but it didn't help. Luckily I always have potions that can help him, I don't know what we would do without magic" she frowned and shook her head.

Rosalie looked at the list once again carefully reading everything.
"We already have everything in the store, some ingredients are in the basement but yeah, we have everything." She smiled.
"Once when we close the store someone will bring everything to you." She looked at him once again.
"Some of these ingredients cost a little bit more because they are hard to find. Are you okay with that?"
