cause london is drowning

Who: Remus and Marlene
What: Two nerds in a music shop idk we'll see
When: September 4, 1980
Where: A music shop in muggle London
Warning: None??

With the full moon over, Remus has taken a few hours' break from putting in job applications to browse through the selection at a muggle record shop not far from his flat.

More specifically, he's looking to replace some records that have gone "missing" after the latest Ministry surprise inspection of his flat. It always seems to occur when he's not home, annoyingly enough, and with the right sanction, the inspectors can just let themselves in, him only the wiser for it when he gets a notice later.

He really needs to get in the practice of hiding the things he wants to keep. Never mind it's his own bloody flat, where he lives alone, and he should be able to safely keep his own things out in the open there...

He's already found copies of a few of the ones he'd "lost", and now he was just browsing, his selections tucked under an arm. He should really bring Sirius here sometime, the records were second-hand but the variety was far more eclectic because of that.

She's not expecting cocktails and hors d'oeuvres, frankly. She's better off than Remus is; the McKinnons have a successful business and have for generations, but they aren't wealthy. They do just fine. She doesn't generally hurt for money, but she's also not going out and buying velvet robes any time soon. All of this is mostly to say that she's not exactly going to be expecting opulence; it's not where she lives either.

It is going to be fine, Remus.

She buys her Bowie and tucks it in her tote as they step out into the slightly chilled September night air, and she looks up - and yes, even further up - at Remus. "Got something on your mind?" She asks quietly as they get away from the crowded streets and onto the side lanes with more houses and flats.
