Letting go had always been the hardest thing for Hee-soo.

When he let go of his mother's hand on the docks of Incheon, when his eldest brother Hee-jun told him that he couldn't hang out with his baby brother anymore since he had new friends, when his older twin sister Hee-young peeled his tight fingers from her arms at the train station when he was to leave for Hogwarts.

He never felt quite at home in England and even less so when he began to manifest strange abilities. He'd tried to be sociable, was such an energetic and rowdy child that the other kids and the workers at the orphanage were scared. When strange things started happening around Hee-soo, they were terrified. And they showed it.

Out of them all, though, Kenny was the absolute worst. Always, day and night, he made fun of Hee-soo for being so small, for looking different, for having an accent, for not liking English breakfast, and he definitely had a thing for Hee-young. It took Hee-soo all his willpower not to punch Kenny straight in the gut, but it turned out he didn't even have to go to such measures.

Kenny was sent to a different orphanage unable to speak or walk properly after he was found alone in a room with Hee-soo, who was laughing gleefully. Both parties claimed that nothing physical had occurred.

It was not long after that Hee-soo and his siblings were adopted, and Hee-soo was sure that the workers were breathing sighs of relief when the three got on the car.

Hee-soo was surprised that the young couple who adopted them was actually quite nice, and for the first time, he felt that he could let his guard down just a tiny bit. But then, he left for Hogwarts and felt as alone as ever.

Even after graduating, nothing seems to have changed. Taeri, Hee-soo's pet cat, is as churlish and snappy as ever, but she's all he has. He's picked up a job selling magical books in various languages after spending most of his time in the Hogwarts library.

Option Two -
The snow had been falling steadily all morning and it didn't look like it was going to stop any time soon. Joshua Campbell scrunched his face up in a frown as he lifted his gaze to look to the sky. Snow. It really was quite a bother.

And it certainly didn't make it better that Diagon Alley seemed to be getting more and more crowded. Joshua sighed and pointed his wand at the large box that was currently placed on the doorstep of his shop. He had to get going. He had an order to deliver.

"Wingardium Leviosa!" The elderly man muttered and watched the box hover in the air for a moment. Honestly, did St. Mungo's really need that much tinsel? And with glitter of all things? He sighed again. If it hadn't been for the rather convincing stamp on the order, he would have been likely to believe it had been a prank by one of those orphaned rascals living up there. 

Oh well, there was no point in waiting. Joshua deftly stirred the box down the doorstep and out onto the street, carefully levitating it above the heads of the crowd.

"Coming through! Coming through!" His voice sounded over the chatter of the crowd. "Keep out! Move ahead! Go on!" This was going way too slow. People were in the way and walking like they had all day! He huffed. Luckily the road was down hill.

"Coming through! Coming th--- arrrgh!" Joshua let out a loud shout as his feet suddenly slipped in the snow and sent him, the box, and several long strands of tinsel tumbling into the person who had been walking in front of him.

"For Merlin's sake!" Joshua muttered angrily as he hurried to his feet again, red and gold tinsel now decorating his black coat. "I am so sorry! This blasted snow!" He looked apologetic at the person he had crashed into.

Roleplay Response:
Hugging the package tightly to his chest, Hee-soo dragged his scarf over his shoulders.

It was one thing for Diagon Alley to be this crowded, but why did it also have to snowing? He shivered and continued to slowly push his way down the street.

There simply wasn't any time for this! Hee-soo had to be at work in (he checked his watch) 10 minutes. At this rate, he wouldn't be able to open shop until thirty minutes later, not that anyone would actually be there.

He sighed as he trudged up a hill, not even listening to the commotion around him.

Three new books that he was excited to add to his collection and- a flurry of colours suddenly unfurled before Hee-soo's eyes, red and gold, before someone crashed right into him.

Hee-soo fell backwards, his package of books tossed to the side. "No!" He reached for them.

"For Merlin's sake!" the man in front of him got up.

The paper wrapping was completely wet, but Hee-soo decided the state of the books was a later problem. Dusting himself off as he got to his feet, he noted the chill on his entire backside.

"Are you alright," he asked the man, who was now decked out like a Christmas tree.


The man certainly looked sorry as he exclaimed "I am so sorry! This blasted snow!"

Hee-soo gave a bit of a pained smile. "I'm alright. Not sure about these books, though."

Remembering that he was in a hurry, Hee-soo pulled a strand of red tinsel from over his body and offered it to the man. "I'm in a hurry, but here!"

As Hee-soo opened up shop only three minutes late, he realised he wasn't even sure if the man had taken back his tinsel or not.
