Welcome to the City, and to Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes!

[Look, it's the youngest Weasley in question, filming a post to the network from behind the counter at her brothers' joke shop. The place itself is absolutely bustling with people and noise (chatter, whizzing, bangs, flashes!) and Ginny herself looks a little tousled but beaming. She has to raise her voice a bit to be heard.]

Looks like the weekend brought the visitors with it, so we're having a special until everyone goes home! Maybe that's three days from now, maybe it's tomorrow! Wouldn't you hate to miss this lot?

[The camera wheels around to show the shop, the shelves, the colourful magical products, then back to her.]

So come find us! And if you ask us how Babbitty Rabbitty's Cackling Stump is doing, you'll get 10% off one item of your choice! And if you're family—or from home at all—you'll just have to outright bribe me for a discount. [Wink. That means you, brothers, she knows you're out there.] We hope to see you here!

[And with a flourish of her wand and a shower of indoor fireworks later, rousing applause and appreciation from the patrons, the feed ends.]

[ooc; FOURTH WALL! HAVE AT HER. Just no doubles, no telling her she's from a book, and no future spoilers beyond the Final Battle (though if it happens, she'll conveniently forget once it's all over). Feel free to threadjack, too! HAVE FUN AND BACKDATE FOREVER! ♥

Ginny will be at the joke shop, at Passioné, and out and about in the City once shop hours are over. Come troll her on the network or in person!]

The finest magical tricks, sweets, and fireworks you can imagine. If you're visiting a friend or have a friend visiting and want to surprise them, odds are you'll find whatever you want on our shelves.

The only Weasley's I know are more into Muggles than jokes.

[......WAIT.]

We're from the same world?

Because, well, while that's true, you've clearly never met my twin brothers. They're brilliant at pranks, gave the professors and students at Hogwarts the best sort of trouble. Maybe I'm biased, but their stuff is a damn sight better than Zonko's!

I got a very odd invitation-

But no matter! The point remains that I believe I have not made the acquaintance of any firey ginger joke-loving twins, and I believe I would remember such an event. I know Arthur. Well.

I know of him. In theory. He's a few years older.

Arthur Weasley's my dad. Well, our dad.

[At least the timeline thing doesn't bewilder her nearly as much as it used to.]

I'm Ginny. My twin brothers Fred and George started this shop when they were here in the City but their main one's on Diagon. I'm from years ahead of you if you haven't heard of all seven of his kids by now.

All seven-

[P A U S E]

Well. Congratulations to Weasley senior, then.

[They are a fertile bloodline, them Weasleys. She's laughing, nodding.]

If he comes round during all of this, I'll let him know. Have we met, though? You're really familiar.
