The door opens, and the chatter on the other side of the door is almost similar to the chatter within the bar itself. (He'd been in the Great Hall.)
A young boy of sixteen lingers by the woodwork, staring with wide eyes. They're familiar eyes, for those who knew his father (and, as Albus knows very well, there is hardly a wizard or witch who hasn't heard of his father) - or better yet, his grandmother - and the jet-black, slightly messy hair is a another characteristic that bears a striking resemblance to the Boy Who Lived.
But on closer inspection, one can spot the differences. This young boy does not wear glasses. And he does not have the same air of confidence the Potters tend to have. (No Potter, for example, would hesitate by the doorside, contemplating slipping back out as if he'd never stepped in at all.)
Whether one recognizes the boy or not, the unmistakable 'I've never been here before, what is this place?' look is a familiar one for any regular patron of the bar.
[ooc: I meant to do this weeks ago, but did not get a chance. :( I really wanted to stick him in though, so here goes! This can totally be used for car keys, by the way! Should make it easier for some to tag. ;)
It is also subject to slowtime.

Even for a good cause.
(Unlike shopping.)
"And I really wouldn't want you to get in trouble with your professors."

"I won't. I mean, I would probably have taken you in the evening anyway, after classes finish. It's nicer when it's evening - though the sun coming through the windows is also pretty."
Uh ... yeah, he may have gone to libraries at all times of the day.

Well, it's not like libraries stop working at night.
Okay, maybe they close at night. But at colleges they stay open til all hours - especially during finals. So, there aren't time limits for that sort of thing.
Right.
A grin, "Sounds like a plan."

He might be embarrassed, now that the initial Asking has been done, and he realizes just what he managed to do.
It's a pretty brave thing he did, asking a girl he'd never met before to hang out with him in his world, in his school!
He shifts his attention to one of the books not properly lined up along the nearest shelf, fingers grazing the spine.
