Astrid walks out of the Hog's Head, glancing back over her shoulder as she tucks something into the back pocket of her dark blue jeans. She's coupled the jeans with a black long sleeved shirt with a bit of a plunging v-neck and black high-heeled boots. She stops at the edge of the sidewalk and looks around, wondering where to go next.

Jake passes the Hog's Head, noticing Astrid as he walks. He mentally argues with himself whether he should go to the Three Broomsticks or Honeydukes.

Astrid glances at Jake as he walks past, then overhears some third year ADSGMP students bubbling about how good the Three Broomsticks is. She gives a little shrug to herself and heads to the cafe/restaurant/tavern/place. She walks in and claims a booth over in a corner. Shortly a waitress comes over and gives her a menu, which she opens and begins to look through.

Jake finally decides to go to the Three Broomsticks and sits in a booth near Astrid, ordering his usual: a couple of butterbeers, Ton-Tounge Toffee, and Treacle Fudge.

Astrid looks up from her menu and spots the guy she saw not long before. Utterly clueless as to what to order, she gets up from her booth and goes to sit across from him in his booth instead. "Hey," she says simply in greeting before asking, "Any idea what's good here?"

"Well the butterbeer's good. And a good snack with it would either the ton-tounge toffee or treacle fudge." Jake replies with a small smile.

Astrid nods and says with a quick smile, "Alright, I'll take your word for it." When the waitress returns with Jake's order, Astrid orders the same and the waitress disappears to go and get it.

Jake takes a bite out of the fudge and washes it down with some butterbeer.

While waiting for her order, she says, "I'm Astrid, by the way. New here, if you couldn't tell."

"I'm Jake. I've been here for about a month." Jake says after doing the same he did with the fudge, but with the toffee.

"Do you live in Hogsmeade then, or go to Hogwarts or Albus Dumbledore School for Whatevers and Whatnots?"

"I go to Albus Dumbledore School for Gifted Magical Persons or as everybody likes to call it, ADSGMP." Jake replies.

"Aah, I see. I'm actually going to be going there, once I get some things from the stores around here." The waitress arrives with her food and Astrid gives a nod of thanks, then tries a sip of her butterbeer. "Hmm, this is good."

"Told you it was good. By the way, watch out for the potions teacher, she has a broom shoved up her ass." Jake warns

Astrid raises an eyebrow then says with a grin, "I'll keep that in mind." Trying some of the fudge with an impressed expression, she asks, "So, what is there to do around the school to keep the students from going mad with boredom?"

"Piss people off and blow stuff up. But there are 2 girls who have detention for 3 week because they were blowing up the 'holy tree'." Jake says while rolling his eyes.

Astrid grins and says, "Sounds like my kind of place. Good thing too - I was worried it was going to be a boring old straight-laced school."

"Hmm. I'll have to see what I can do about that.. So, this professor with the.. broom up their ass. He or she have an office, or elsewhere that's begging to be broken and entered?"

"Her classroom/office/hellhole is." Jake says after thinking for a sec.
