Hello, my name is Nastassia "Tassy" Ellis

I would like to purchase The Lilting Lyre

How did I come to get this shop? Well... I actually used to work there when Austin Brighton owned the shop but then he and Jinhai decided to move away travel or whatever the hell they're doing and put the store up for sale. I was pretty bummed about having to find a new job when my friend Les Lovell surprised me by saying he would help me purchase it as an "investment" of some sort. Honestly I'm a bit leery about the whole thing and annoyed because he knows I hate when he uses his money on me in large quantities (nice dinner? sure I'll pick it up next time. buying me a fracken business? foot in arse.) but I'm also really excited because I actually have more space to work and craft instruments as well as take on my clients.

The things I love about this shop are I love all the instruments and I especially love getting to demonstrate on them, I love the people willing to learn how to better themselves through the musical arts, I absolutely love the smell of wooden instruments like violins and cellos and such, and I love the small down time where I can nap or craft instruments.

The things I despise about this shop are I hate when people put their sticky fingers on instruments they're not even going to buy, when they try to "test out" the woodwinds or reeds, when someone comes in acting like they're the new Celestina Warbeck of musical instruments, I hate the "random inspections" Les decides to do in his free time, and I hate the paperwork. Despise it even.

Oh yes, there's something else I need to tell you! (The Golden Lotus is currently NPC'd and as such I have no control over it or anything that happens to it)

Hello, my name is Alexandria Quimby-Scott

I would like to work at All or Nothing Ink and Board Shop

The things I love about this shop are
- I can easily bond with the people who come in of the shop due to similar interests
- I can use my artistic talents
- I get to improve my piercing and possibly tattooing skills
- Hot skater/tattooed guys come in all the time
- Apparently I'll get free food?

The things I despise about this shop are
- It's in the heart of Diagon Alley, which means navigating through the town is going to be a pain in the arse
- I probably won't be allowed to do any tattoos anytime soon
- Some customers are terrified of needles/pain. Um, hello. It's a tattoo/piercing place. If you want one, you'll need to get over your fear
- Most customers probably won't want me to pierce them because I'm a newbie
- I'll have to actually work

Oh yes, there's something else I need to tell you! The only person I've ever pierced is myself.

Hello, my name is Seth Wynters

I would like to work at Ollivander's

The things I love about this shop are working with wands, helping people find their wands, helping Damien out since he apparently needs all the help he can get, being useful, and being able to find out just how good at wandmaking I actually am.

The things I despise about this shop are long hours during the summer, slow time during the rest of the year, way too many cases of splinters, people that insist on wands that aren't meant for them, and messes when someone takes forever finding their perfect wand.

Oh yes, there's something else I need to tell you! Um, yeah, I kind of put my own shop back on the market so...

Hello, my name is Kenneth Blake

I would like to work at All or Nothing Ink and Board Shop

The things I love about this shop are being able to use my artistic talents, meeting interesting people, working on improving my skills as an artist, working with people I know, becoming known for my art instead of my quidditch skills.

The things I despise about this shop are how loud it can be, people that come in and argue about prices, Emmett, people that are shocked that tattoos require the use of needles, Emmett, and people knowing me more for my quidditch skills and chastising me for my choice of occupation.

Oh yes, there's something else I need to tell you! I would rather work on tattoos if that's possible, but I could start off elsewhere if necessary.

Hello, my name is: Amethyst Hawthorn

I would like to purchase: The Poffle Pot

How did I come to get this shop?: I am creating this shop. I plan to create a café and brewery out of it, selling all sorts of delicious food and tasty drinks.

The things I love about this shop are:
-It’s huge with plenty of room for a kitchen, a seating, area, a counter, and even a giant fireplace!
-it has a very warm and cozy feel to it
-it has hardwood floors, which I love
-It has a great view of the rest of diagon alley from the large window by the front door
-it reminds one of a homey log cabin

The things I dislike about this shop are:
-customers who expect me to just KNOW what they want to order
-customers who wait until I complete an order to tel me that they actually wanted decaf
-people who just dump their coin bag onto the counter, expecting me to count out the total
-Dine n’ Dashers (people who will take their food and try to leave without paying)
-people who bring in their spoiled, picky eaters of children

Oh yes, there's something else I need to tell you! I plan to have my puffskein and pygmy puffs roam free about the shop for customers to interact with. I feel that it will make people happy and help lower stress. I want my shop to be a place where you can come eat, hang out, and unwind. smile

Hello, my name is Jessamine Creed

I would like to purchase Twilfitt and Tatting's

How did I come to get this shop? Well... I come from a wealthy family that used to shop here all the time. I used to spend countless hours in this store trying on clothes. After I dropped out I realized that the only thing I really liked was fashion so I figured why own a clothing store? I don't have a lot of money to my name since my parents took all I had away but I can take out a loan.

The things I love about this shop are the clothes are number one. I also love the decor and how it's arranged. It's very beautiful. I like the area it's in, it's pretty busy but not packed. To many costumers would just be a handful. This store keeps up with the latest and trendiest fashions and the prices are high(which means if I own it I'll get a lot of money from people).

The things I despise about this shop are the people who come in are snobs, the store isn't as big as I'd like, I don't like that this store doesn't also sell cosmetics, it always gets packed when major events are approaching soon and the store doesn't receive shipments of clothes fast enough.

Oh yes, there's something else I need to tell you! Even though I'm a drop out I am a persistent woman. I want to make a lot of changes to this store for the better and with my stubbornness I definitely can.

Hello, my name is Rory Bolan

I would like to work at Lilting Lyre

The things I love about this shop are That I'm around music all day, that my boss is totally understanding about sorta everything, that I'm able to give lessons and get money for that, that I get a discount on my music stuff (which is freakin' awesome), and the feeling that my contributions are valid.

The things I despise about this shop are When people come and put their sticky fingers on evveerrryyytthiinggg, when people come in and don't buy anything, when people come in and ask over a hundred questions about something and still don't buy anything, inventory days, closing the shop.

Oh yes, there's something else I need to tell you! (I'msorryittookmesolongtoapplydon'tkillme:'DD)
