7 Mischiefs Managed - [video]

[onlyholey]

[Hello City! It's everyone's favourite ginger Brit (well, one of several) all up in your device.]

Alright, City? Some of you may be informed of a particular joke shop that a certain pair of wizards will be bringing your way shortly. Seeing as I'm in the neighbourhood, I thought I would treat you all with a little sneak preview.

[The camera adjusts to the light, and George can be seen standing in a darkish room. Despite the darkness, the whole decor can be seen as extremely orange and purple, with a few good shocks of magenta and lime green thrown in here and there. He turns the camera around to reveal the front counter, already loaded up with merchandise.]

Anything more than that and I'm afraid you'll have to show up for the grand opening. Hope to see you all there!

[ooc: Better watch yourselves, City. Weasley's Wizard Wheezes is almost upon you. George will be in the shop tonight taking stock/setting up. Friends and family are welcome to assume that he roped them into helping and action tag. Random visitors are also always good. :-D]

[ Sounds good to her. And off she goes to find the store of many colors. ]

[onlyholey]

[Whenever she gets there, George is leaning against the main counter, sorting through a box of fireworks.]

[boutant]

You know, if you add a little bit of paisley, this'll be Eames's favorite place in the world.

[onlyholey]

[He leans against the counter and grins as he sees her come in.]

Eames must have good taste, then.

[boutant]

[ Ariadne grins back. ] Depends on who you ask.

[onlyholey]

I suppose I'm asking you.

[boutant]

I'm a fan of the patterns. I look twice at the colors sometimes, but it works for him.

[onlyholey]

I'll take that as a compliment to our interior design skills, then.

[boutant]

I'm especially a fan of the orange.

[onlyholey]

Fred's favourite colour... we have to have it on everything.

[boutant]

[ There's a laugh. ] Are you the purple, then?

[onlyholey]

That obvious, is it?

[boutant]

Very.

What about the other colors?

[onlyholey]

Just finding what would clash the most horribly, really.

[boutant]

The purple and the green don't look half bad together, really.

[onlyholey]

I think it's rather magnificent.

[boutant]

I'd be reminded of dinosaurs if they were green spots, though.

[onlyholey]

Did dinosaurs have green spots?

1/2

[boutant]

Yes. [ Pokerface. ]

[boutant]

[ And then she starts to laugh. ]

No, there's a children's television show that has a dinosaur named Barney who's purple with green spots. I've got no idea what coloring actual dinosaurs had.

[onlyholey]

Television. That's the Muggles moving picture box thing, isn't it?

[boutant]

That's the one.

[ So adorably oblivious when it comes to 'normal' things. ]

I can't explain it half as well as I explained not using owls for mail, though.

[onlyholey]

It all sounds a bit barmy, to be honest. But I'm sure it's just the same with you lot and magic.

[boutant]

Definitely.

[ She nods toward the fireworks. ] Are these made the same way as our fireworks are, or is there something different about them?

[onlyholey]

I doubt yours are the same as ours. Ours do things even regular wizard fireworks can't.

[smarmy? Maybe only a little]
