A.N. — It is time for something sweeter after a fair few chapters of brooding darkness. That's what I first planned, but then I said, "What if I blended both?" For a hint of who's coming tomorrow, today's fellow is connected to the upcoming drabble via crystallised pineapple.
117. Ambrosius Flume
The dementors floating around Hogsmeade made the atmosphere chilly and oppressive. But it made biting into one of Honeydukes' confections all that much sweeter.
To Ambrosius Flume, the presence of Azkaban's guards meant his business was booming. Keeping chocolate stocked on his shelves was actually proving more difficult by the day. The black-cloaked wraiths weren't going so far as to attack the townsfolk or visitors, but the prolonged exposure them was driving demand even higher than during holidays like Valentine's Day. Flume was only too happy to sell all and sundry the cure to this season's (not so common) cold.
