Penny Mix Up {Open}

Severus kept his hood up as he headed into Knockturn Alley, his face well hidden from any passers by. The apothecary in Diagon Alley hadn't provided what he wanted and needed, so it was time to stop by the next nearest and hope they had what he wanted. Usually, he wouldn't care too much about who else was around, but now that he was out of school it had an increased wish to keep his privacy, and keep his business to himself. The less people who saw him going into Knockturn Alley the better.

Actually, it wasn't just the Diagon Alley people he wanted to keep his face hidden from, it was those down in the dark confines of Knockturn Alley, too. It was notorious for its reputation of being home to many dark witches and wizards, and it was a particular hotspot for the Death Eaters these days, too. And while, yes, he was one himself, he generally didn't care for spending any length of time around them that he didn't have to. Seeing them at the required meetings was one thing but when he was just going about his life was another thing.

He made his way swiftly to the store he wanted, slipping though the door without making the small bell chime. From what he could see when he first stepped in, the shop was empty, and the Mulpepper or whatever assistant was working was currently out the back of the store. Perfect.
