feorge[ video || open action ]
[At first, the loud crack! that comes from outside does not sound entirely unlike thunder; maybe a storm is brewing? But the first is quickly followed by another, and then dozens more. Strange behavior for thunder, but surely it's not completely unheard of?
Then starts the bright flashes of light, every color imaginable whirring about in sparklers and Catherine wheels, and there is absolutely no mistaking this for lightning.
That's right. A large display of fireworks has been set off in the center of the Square, and if the large, glittering W in the sky is any sort of hint, it's easy to understand this feat to be at the hands of a Weasley - specifically, one wolfishly grinning Fred Weasley, who is standing beneath the W with a vast spread of various objects before him.]
Welcome, ladies and gentlefolk, to the City's first ever Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes! Come on down and take a peek at our stock - we've got Trick Wands, Ton-Tongue Toffees, as well as various Skiving Snackboxes; not to mention the ever popular Wonder Witch Products, such as the Love Potions and Ten Second Pimple Removers. It's guaranteed a good laugh! Just follow the W!
[And just as he says the last word, another thunderous boom! lets loose two enormous dragons composed entirely of fireworks. They circle about the ever crackling W before spreading off and exploding into still more firecrackers that whizz off into the distance. Fred grins wildly, tips an invisible hat upon his head, and the feed shuts off.]

[ooc; Fred set the sky on fire! :D Things to know about these fireworks, as they are they are not normal fireworks and have a few enchantments about them!

- they do not dissipate quickly and will last for a few hours after this video
- as they crash into each other, they will multiply and combine and any other various nonsense imaginable
- any attempts to banish or destroy them will only serve to multiply them

Date: 2011-08-28 01:33 am (UTC)None of the Whiz-Bangs, I'm afraid. Used the whole lot for the display. But I think I can spare a treat or two if you're interested in those.
[He nods his head to the various wrapped sweets surrounding the Ton Tongue Toffees.]
[action]
Date: 2011-08-29 10:18 pm (UTC)[He'll find out for himself, as he's popping that toffee in his mouth now. Probably not the smartest thing to do in a joke shop, but he figures the worst that can happen is it tastes like soap.]
[action]
Date: 2011-08-30 05:48 pm (UTC)[Didn't he tell you, Nathan? Magical pranks go beyond the Muggle imagination. Not that he remember the conversation. And he is definitely not advising against eating that Toffee, because honestly? It's too damn amusing.]
[action]
Date: 2011-08-30 07:30 pm (UTC)This isn't going to give me diarrhoea, or anything? [Wrong end, Nathan. Something he seems to realise almost as soon as he's swallowed. He's looking pretty horrified right about now.]
[action]
Date: 2011-08-30 08:53 pm (UTC)Not to worry, mate. That'll clear up in just a mo'.
[And sure enough, they've made it so that once the tongue reaches the two-and-a-half foot mark, it rolls right back up and returns to normal. Tears, Nathan. There are tears in his eyes.]
Re: [action]
Date: 2011-08-30 09:05 pm (UTC)Sadly, this probably will only teach him about shoplifting here.]
What the fuck was that?!
[action]
Date: 2011-08-30 09:17 pm (UTC)Ton-Tongue Toffee! Good for those who've got too much to say, but I've found it to be a good surprise for any unsuspecting victim.
[action]
Date: 2011-08-30 09:23 pm (UTC)You could've warned me. I thought we were friends.
[action]
Date: 2011-08-30 10:07 pm (UTC)[This is the truth! The only friend he's ever spared a gag is Hermione, and that's because she'd've jinxed him into next week if he'd let her turn into a canary. Still, Nathan looks so pitiable, so Fred summons a Snackbox and sets it on a table to explain them to him.]
Here, watch and learn.
[Deciding a Nosebleed Nougat should be good enough for a demonstration, he pulls a handkerchief from his pocket and eats the orange end. Blood almost immediately starts pouring from his nostrils, soaking through the kerchief in mere moments before he plops the purple end into his mouth. It stops almost as quickly, and he grins, looking good as new.]
[action]
Date: 2011-08-30 10:18 pm (UTC)[He doesn't. He'll get over it, though. Especially with being able to see what the other sweets do.]
This is what wizards do for fun?
[action]
Date: 2011-08-31 07:26 pm (UTC)[This is a cheeky grin. Clearly he and George are the best of wizards. He spins the Snackbox toward him.]
Go on, then. You've seen how it works. Give it a try.
[action]
Date: 2011-08-31 08:18 pm (UTC)It... doesn't seem so bad. At least not for those precious few moments before he doubles over, vomiting all over the floor. You'd better think the cleaning up is worth it, Fred. On the plus side, Nathan had the purple part ready and stuffs that in his mouth at the soonest possible opportunity. He straightens up, wide eyed and horrified as he wipes his mouth with the back of his hand.] Fuck!
[action]
Date: 2011-09-02 02:54 am (UTC)Got me out of every class I had my last year at school, if you'd believe it. Mighty useful, and one hundred percent failsafe. For humans, at least.
[He still really wants to test them on Aradia and her fellow trolls.]
I'll give you this lot, but only if you spread the good word.
[action]
Date: 2011-09-04 02:59 pm (UTC)You couldn't just bunk off like any other kid would do?
[Despite the incredulous look Nathan gives him when he talks about using it to get out of class, Nathan's more than happy to take the box, trying to pass him back the handkerchief whilst he's at it.]
What, you really think I'd keep these to myself? Sweets this good were made for sharing.
[action]
Date: 2011-09-04 05:05 pm (UTC)[For them? Really easy. Using the Snackboxes was more just a means of irritating Umbride in a manner she couldn't control, so he still looks absolutely chuffed at the memory of it all. He Vanishes the soiled rag straight from Nathan's hand.]
Cheers, mate. Make certain they're put to good use.
[action]
Date: 2011-09-04 09:19 pm (UTC)[Well, that was convenient. Nathan wipes his hand on his jeans.]
Oh, believe me. I was planning on it. [He sniffs, then gives Fred his most casual, innocent look.] So, what happens if you don't give someone the purple?
[action]
Date: 2011-09-04 11:33 pm (UTC)Fond of sicking your mates to death, are we? Had a few mishaps during the testing phases, though luckily none ever quite reached that level of severity. Mind that magical maladies aren't the same as Muggle illnesses, Nathan.
[action] oh, fuck. what did I do to my html in that last tag?
Date: 2011-09-05 08:43 pm (UTC)[action] idek but it's fascinating mO_Om
Date: 2011-09-06 05:39 am (UTC)[He should not be thinking about these sorts of things, but he gets a bit more serious for this next part. Fred might have no problem with sicking himself, but others are a different case.]
At any rate, it's rather imperative they get the cure. Should anything happen, be sure to let me know immediately.
[action] Let's try and avoid it this time...
Date: 2011-09-08 09:19 pm (UTC)[He's not. Not really. Regardless of what the smirk on Nathan's face might say.]
Don't worry. I'll call you. Or drag them here. whichever seems easiest.
[action] top marks!
Date: 2011-09-09 08:17 pm (UTC)[Hullo, magic user. Everything's easier for him. 'cept maybe tying his shoes.]
[action] \o/ I feel like an A* student
Date: 2011-09-15 10:46 am (UTC)[You mean they don't have a spell for that? Shocking!]
[action]
Date: 2011-09-16 08:33 pm (UTC)[Oh, I'm sure they do. Mum probably swatted it out of them young, though.]
[action]
Date: 2011-09-18 10:01 am (UTC)[Parents are so cruel.]
[action]
Date: 2011-09-18 04:15 pm (UTC)[IKNOWRIGHT?]
