    If there was one place that Nessie could be guaranteed to go on her Hogsmeade trips, it was Honeyduke's. Wearing a frilly pale blue dress with her hair tied up in matching ribbons, she found herself squished among people wanting to try the new repeating sweets, but she had a more traditional goal in mind: fudge. It wasn't (in her opinion) as good as her father's, but perhaps that was just familial pride.

    It was still fudge.

    She finally got through the crowd, practically popping out on the other side, and immediately stumbled into someone. "Oh! Excuse me. I was just after some fudge."

    Philip had decided to partake in this repeating candy that Honeyduke had released. It was an amusing thing, really. The bakery could stand without his presence for a couple of hours. They were at a point where he could simply trust his hired hands to keep the shop operating. It was mildly disconcerting not to do all the baking himself but doing so would have ensured a burnout, likely.

    He had just popped a repeating candy into his mouth when someone stumbled into him. "It's quite all right, miss. It's quite all right, miss," he said before smiling in mild amusement. "Sorry, the candy. Sorry, the candy."

    Nessie found herself blushing at the repeated apology. "Oh, it's quite all right!" she said, then blushed brighter as she repeated his words back to him. He was attractive, in a different sort of way than Mr. Humphrey-Mavis. "I was just after a bit of fudge. It's my favorite. Well, not Mr. Honeyduke's specifically, but fudge in general! I suppose it has something to do with being Miss Fudge; I'm probably biased!" As she realized that she was babbling, she clamped her lips shut and blushed some more.

    Philip couldn't help a small laugh as she repeated his words. He listened as the young woman babbled about fudge. And gave her name in the process. "Miss Fudge? I don't suppose you're related to Fudge and Sons?" He inquired curiously, graciously not bringing attention to her blushing.

    "Oh, yes," Nessie said fiddling anxiously with her reticule. "That would be my father and brother. So you see why I say Honeyduke's isn't my favorite -- my father's is!"

    "Of course," Philip said in amusement. "I quite understand as I am the owner of a bakery. Not quite the same thing but I would hope my relatives preferred my wares to those of others."

    "You have a bakery?" Nessie asked in rapt interest. "Where? What is it called? What is your favorite thing that you make?"

    Philip smiled in response to the girls apparent interest in his bakery. "That I do. It's located in Irvingly and it's called Sweet Delights." His favorite thing to make? Philip had to think on that one, there was so much he enjoyed. "I'd have to say pies."

    Sweet Delights in Irvingly. Nessie didn't think she'd ever been there, but she would have to try to go. "What sort of pie?" she asked, truly interested.

    "Usually fruit pies though during the Christmas season, my bakery also offers meat pies." And he was also working on a pie that would change its flavor to cater to the person having a slice. It was going nowhere so far though. Perhaps, someday.

    "Fruit pies are always lovely," Nessie said brightly. She really adored sweets ... "What sorts of fruits do you use? Do you use single fruits, or combinations? Do you make anything really unusual?"

    "Mainly berries. I do like trying combinations. I suppose some of what I make is unusual but that's part of the fun."

    "Perhaps you might like to come by and try some of my products some time?" Philip found himself offering.

    "Oh, certainly!" Nessie said, without thinking of any possible implications of accepting that invitation. Teasingly, she added, "I'm an excellent taste-tester."
