The Katigori

Felt like re-doodlin’ a doodle from the back of a shopping list

… Forgot the catflap. 

Some more doodlin’ under the cut and a description (which came first) from a thread not yet posted

… On the opposite side of the road a shop with sizeable glass windows was lit up, throwing puddles of light onto the cobbles. The air was filled with a slightly sickly floral scent. The cobbles outside Floribuster’s were swept clean each morning and evening, though the clutter just inside the door of the shop suggested that a number of the displays were pulled outside in business hours. 

Sandwiched between it and the building next to it was an arched passageway full of shadows which opened up into a little courtyard full of empty crates and buckets. Here the floral scent subsided to something more reminiscent of the Hogwarts greenhouses, less blooms and more damp greenery. A set of stone steps with a wrought iron railing laced with a climbing plant, led straight up against the side wall of the florists. It rose over the crates stashed beneath it…

…at the top he turned to his right to attend to the blue front door, complete with cat flap… 

A jam jar nestled on the doorstep was filled with a dozen cigarette ends was the only blot on the steps, which like the front of the shop were swept clean. 

… The lamps lit and flared, flooding light into a poky little room. It smelled of wax leather coats and shoe polish…. Coats and cloaks hung to the left beside a well-stocked shoe rack full of boots, wellingtons and more casual footwear. An enchanted brush was independently buffing a pair of brown leather brogues on the top of the rack…. 

From here the flat extended on one level to their right, heading back towards the Alley. …. through into a hallway, closed doors to their left suggesting a bathroom, bedroom, perhaps two or a study. … The kitchen at the end of the hall smelled faintly of Bolognese from dinner but was altogether homely and rather tidy.
