So we meet again? ((Cosette, open))

Tylain entered Diagon Alley, very excited for today, as it was his school shopping day. He was actually not interested in the shopping itself, but more interested in the books he would get for the next year. Usually, they were quite interesting, but over his years at Hogwarts, he had learned (not necessarily from the books for classes, but from other books) that not all things in writing were true. In fact (how ironic), not many were, as most books he'd come across that were even remotely interesting were either non-fiction or fantasy. Sure, the non-fiction were, but other than that.. not so much.
"Ty!" A voice squealed behind Tylain.
"Hey, Ree." He replied. He had his own nickname for her, that not many understood, as it was from her middle name (not many people knew that either.) "Shopping?"

"Yes." Cosette nodded, and hugged Tylain when she reached him. "You?"
"Indeed." He nodded. He was a year older than her, but much more mature than most people gave him credit for, being sixteen, very shy, and very intelligent.
"So, I've got my wand, how about you?" Cosette questioned.
"I was about to go get it, actually." Ty shrugged.
"Ok, well how was your summer?" She asked, sitting on a bench, and moving to let him do the same.

"Good. We went to Greece, finally." Tylain laughed. He had been begging his parents to go there for years, ever since he read about Greek Mythology, and pretty much fell in love with it - for lack of a better word. "It was really cool." He grinned. "What about your summer? Go to france again, did you?"

"Indeed." Cosette nodded, quoting him, and looked quite serious for a moment, before they both laughed. "It was pretty fun. I mean, having cousins there certainly helps." She smirked. "I did catch on to French even more this year, though."
"You were already pretty good at it." He rolled his eyes.
"Oh, you know what I mean!" Cosette hit his arm.
