Billywig Bounce House

[Zoe]

The Worple and Warmsley Magical Travelling Carnival has brought back one of its perennial favourites: an all-ages bounce house! This year however the house, in a bright blue, is a little bit unique as it is accompanied by several tiny zippy blue creatures brought all the way from Australia.

That's right, this isn't just a bounce house, its a Billywig bounce house! First step up to the Billywig Wrangler, reach your hand into the glass terrarium, and take your turn getting just a little sting or three (depending on your age and weight and other factors), before stepping inside the bounce house ready to levitate and bounce off the walls and the ceiling in all directions!

A large sign states that 'The Worple and Warmsley Magical Travelling Carnival takes NO responsibility for any allergic reactions or any excessive giddiness or levitation that might be suffered by members of the public choosing to be stung more than the required number of times', so be sure to follow the Billywig Wrangler's instructions. You can always choose to use the bounce house in the regular way if you're chicken.

If you're done bouncing but haven't quite stopped levitating yet, take one of the ropes when you get out of the bounce house and tie it around your waist until the symptoms wear off and you gently float back to ground. We recommend doing this because you'll get a great view of the entire carnival and of Diagon Alley while you wait!

• Have your character put their hand in the glass container and be stung by the billywigs - the wrangler will make sure that your character is only stung the required number of times for your character's age, weight, and height, so please do not RP that your character is stung thousands of times unless you have permission to do so. Most children would have one sting, teenagers two, smaller adults three, bigger adults four - and no more than this!
  
• Your character WILL suffer giddiness and then levitation if they are stung by the Billywigs, but they will NOT fly off never to be seen again! There is a magical 'net' above the bounce house area for emergencies!
  
• If your character is going to 'step' out of the bounce house but they're still levitating, have them tie one of the ropes around their waist and they can comfortably and safely float while they wait for the effects to wear off, then they will slowly float down to land on the ground which has a cushioning charm all around the bounce house!

Beau was BEYoOoonD excited for this. He'd been told that he wasn't allowed to do it by his Mum, but she and Warner had wandered off to get some things in the alley to set up the house a little differently now that he had moved in. Which meant that Beau was on his ABSOLUTE WORST behaviour around here and stop number UNO was the bounce house.

THE FLOATY HOUSE.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

He bet that Emma would love this too. Which was why he was thinking about her when he shoved his hand into the glass thing. "STING ME, SUCKAAAAS." Just two?! JUST tw-ooooOoOOOOooooooo hehe.

Into the bounce house he went!

Valencia was wandering around wondering what all there was to do when she spotted a bounce house. It looked like fun so she decided to approach. She read over the sign before peering into a glass full of billywigs.

"How do you feel?" she asked noticing someone currently floating. "I have an aunt allergic to these things." Basically an aunt anyway. She was still sure her dad didn't quite understand that his sister's husband's sister wasn't actually related. But that was fine. It meant she had cool summers in far away places visiting her "aunt" and playing with her cousins. "I heard my uncle say one of these could kill her." Real uncle, not extended family uncle. Although, now that she thought about it, extended family uncle also mentioned it.

Bounce house??? Carsyn was 10000000% in even if she had promised her cousin Chloe she would watch her ickle four year old cousin to show responsibility and he was too little to be stung by a Billywig. Fortunately for her, her Aunt Mia and doting grandmother to little Apollo probably sensed she would want to disappear from off with her friends or well wherever her free-spirited self took her and Carsyn eagerly let it take her to the bounce house.

She was fairly tiny, at only 12 years old and the little bugger stung her hand only once. Although coupled with Carsyn's already giddiness was probably like four times but Carsyn found herself quickly into the bounce house!

Wheeeeeee!

Harri was over the moon, OVER THE MOON, with all the things happenings in the carnival. It was all so exciting and her stop was the bounce house.

A bounce house!

Would you look at that! It was HUGE.

She couldn't wipe off the grin from her face if she tried. Stepping in front of the glass (they get to be stung woohoo!), Harri reached her hand in and waited for the sting. And as soon as she got one, the eleven-year old practically leaped into the bounce house.

Time to get bouncing!

[Billywig Wrangler]

This was easy work, usually. So far there were no incidences to cause alarm. Billy (because yes, the Billywig Wrangler's name actually was Billy) simply needed to make sure that none of the billywigs would be overworked, and make sure the patsies punters took their hands out once they were stung enough to get levitatin'. The sign was enough to cover the carnival's behinds if anyone tried to abuse the whole situation, and there hadn't been an incident in weeks.

"Step right up!" He hollered, after getting the first three in there. "Its a levitation station! A billywig jig! Come get a sting and bounce and swing!"

Beau had no time for talking right now. He was IN THE AIR and practicing getting the lean just right to roll forwards and backwards without tanking. But he was also thinking about swindling this place out of the net above by breaking through it with a fierce enough jump to propel him through. OBviously they wouldn't have thought he was this smart, right? CLEARLY it was able to be broken through? Right? Right? No, Beau. It really isn't.

His thoughts stopped in their track and so did his roll, so he was just...kind of there and bent over and bum in the air. Kill? Huh? "Who's dying? Cooooooool."

Okay so this whole levitation thing by billywig sting was pretty AWESOME. Carsyn was positively light as air as she sprang and jumped with ease, gazing out of the bounce house in search of her sister. Where HAD her sister gotten off to? Probably the food area, but whatever this was amazing and Carys was missing out! While she was jumping and gazing out the side, she barely even noticed the leaping and leaped to the side, falling into someone

"Eepppp!!! Sorrryyy!!" Yet, as she said it, she was grinning. Not very helpful, but seriously she felt AMAZINGGGG!!! GOSH, she should get stung before quidditch tryouts because she felt literally light as air.

Did they have billywigs at Hogwarts?? Maybe in the barn?? She'd have to investigate, for SURE cause this would be brilliant.

Valencia looked up trying to figure out the weird air dance this kid was doing. (He was still a kid, right? She was allowed to say that, right?)

After failing to do something (at least, she assumed he hadn't intended to hover like that, like he had a string attached to his waist and gravity was doing things to him), he seemed to noticed she was speaking at him.

"My aunt." Not aunt. "It isn't cool. It's very unfortunate."

Harri did know that billywig stings would make her levitate but she wasn't ready for how EXHILARATING it would feel. The eleven year old didn't know that it would make her giddy as well!

She was floating! When this was over, she would have to bring her parents and her brother along because this was simply awesome! And she was fluid at keeping her balance even though it was her first time. She giggled as she pushed herself off from one side of the wall and went saaaaaaaaaaaaaaailing into the air..."Eeep! Sorry!!!" She said as the girl she bumped into said literally the same thing.

She gave the girl a thumbs up and laughed. "I'm Harri. What's your name?" What was a great place to make new friends? A bounce house, of course!

The promise to watch Apollo carefully hadn’t only been made by one of the twins, although Carys had been torn as to what she wanted to do first. Not food, not yet. She wasn’t hungry yet, but the face painting had definitely been tempting to the twelve-year-old Hufflepuff. She liked face painting, but as she’d seen the head of her sister disappearing in the opposite direction, she’d followed. Maybe they’d be able to go get their faces painted afterward. Maybe. Or maybe she’d just go there by herself after wherever it was Carsyn had ran off to. She had her own money, after all.

Arriving just after her sister had disappeared inside the bounce house, a giggle escaped her at what the man operating the billywigs said. “Do you know any other rhymes?,” she asked him, just out of curiosity as she’d slipped a hand inside the container and felt a quick sting. Only one and she’d pulled her hand out again. She didn’t want to float off or anything, especially since she was still pretty little for a twelve year old.

She was already feeling pretty floaty by the time she’d managed to find her way into the bounce house. It was actually kind of fun. Different than flying and Quidditch, definitely. Still fun, as she found herself bouncing around and sort of in the direction of her sister and another girl, accompanying the trajectory with an animated wave.

Did she hear something about somebody dying? That wasn’t nice.

Boo. She was boring.

"C'mon. Don't you think that kind of death would be FUN?!" What would happen? Would her aunt float off so high that she popped? WAIT. Would she SWELL up and EXPLODE?!?!?!? "COOL."

"Are you coming to bounce? We can chat more when you're bouncing." Because Beau needed more assistance in trying to break through the net. Two people were better than one. Even though this person was smaller than he needed... maybe she'd move quicker than he did. HA! Not happening! He was BEAU GO GO. No one moved faster than he did!

"I guess, eventually..." Valencia said shuffling her weight between her feet.

She watched him up in the air for a few seconds before nodding. "Yeah. I'll come up." she said. She walked over to stick her hand in the glass terrarium. "Did it hurt?" Not that that was a deciding factor, she just wanted to know.

When Tessa Roberts' mum had suggested a family day out to the carnival, she received the full support of the Roberts siblings. Quicker than ever before, they got dressed and were READY. TO. GO. Ellie obviously took a bit longer to get ready because she liked sleep more than fun, but still. They were here now.

Well, not exactly they...

Unsurprisingly, upon arrival they - the two parents and four siblings - had somehow been separated. She expected that her parents were busy chasing after Levi. He was CRAZY and still young, whereas she and Ellie were old enough to look after themselves. Tessa was SIXTEEN now, you know?

So, here she was, about to get stung in the name of fun.

And she couldn't be more excited.

Violet had accompanied her brother to the carnival because she was sure it was going to be loads of fun. She waved goodbye to him as he went off to see his boyfriend, and looked around for where she wanted to start. There were a lot of options. There was a ride, some food, and ooooh a bounce house. She made her way in that direction. Bounce houses weren't just for children. She could have fun in one too. Especially after being stung by a billywig that made her float. That sounded like sooo much fun!

There was a very short line to get stung, so Violet stood behind a girl who looked about her age. Violet knew she'd seen her around Hogwarts before but they weren't in the same house and they'd never officially met. But Violet was very different than her brother, and she loved meeting new people. So she gave the girl a cheerful smile and a "Hello!"

Tessa looked around as she waited. There was so much she could do at the Carnival and she wanted to try EVERYTHING. But she had reached the Billywig Bounce House at a time when there weren't that many people queueing, so this was activity No.1. Maybe after this she would get some food... but she would need to rejoin her parents for that because they had the money, so maybe not after all.

At the sound of a voice, Tessa turned around. Like this girl, she also loved meeting new people and was rarely shy, so she returned the stranger's cheery smile with one of her own. "Hey! You go to Hogwarts, right??" She recognised her but wasn't sure of her name. "I'm Tessa Roberts."

She stepped forward a spot in the queue.

She was up next!

Violet nodded enthusiastically. "Yes I do! I'll be a sixth year. Hufflepuff." It was kind of hard to believe that she had been at Hogwarts for two whole years and about to start the third. Sometimes it didn't seem like it had been that long since she'd left Beauxbatons. "It's nice to meet you Tessa! I'm Violet!"

Violet followed her a step forward. This was exciting! "I'm excited! Aren't you?!"

OOOOOHHH the other girl practically launched herself at her and obviously wasn't mad and Carsyn felt ever so grateful that she was still pretty tiny because and the floating made her light as air because it was just splendid!!! She grinned and thumbs up all lamely back at the girl, bouncing backward and landing on her bum. "Harri, Hiii!!! I'm Carsyn!!! Do ... doo ... y--y--y--ouuu gggggooo to Hoggwartssss???" her speech was all spacey due the air and excitement, but it was somewhat audible.

And there was Carys!!

"Carys, Hi!!! You found me!" She grinned and waved.

"Woah! Cool. Me too! Well, the Sixth Year part. I'm a Gryffindor." She paused. "Isn't it weird how you can go to school somewhere for so many years and never meet certain people? Even if you pass each other in the corridors literally everyday," she pondered aloud. She didn't actually know how long Violet had attended Hogwarts for. It could have been only one year for all she knew, so maybe that wasn't relevant after all. "How many years have you been at Hogwarts?"

"Oh, definitely! It looks so fun!!!" She grinned enthusiastically.

It was neeeearly her turn.

Despite the fact that he thought it a stupid question, Billy kept his patter up, winking at the kid before rhyming more.

"Just a little prick and bounce until you're sick, but before you upchuck, warn us all to duck!" A single sting and the girl was good to go.

"Put your hand inside, and get ready to glide! Just a little sting and you can do your thing!" Billy gestured for the next girl in the queue to go ahead and get stung. She could reach into the glass container when she was ready.

"Carys, Hi!!! You found me!" She grinned and waved.

WhhhHHoooOOOOaaaaaa...

She was literally floating and she was enjoying every second of it even as it felt soooo weird. Because yeah, it was weird when your feet didn't touch the ground and when you weighed next to nothing. But she was also unusually high, giggling (Harri didn't giggle!) AT the weirdness of it all.

"Nice to meet yooOoouu, Carsyn!" *FLAIL* She was floating farther away, she had to...swim...on the air to get closer back to her new friend! And swim on the air she did, kicking and propelling with her arms. "Not yet! I go to Hog--" Oops! Excuse us, some other child! "I go to Hogwarts next term! Do you?"

...and Carys?

What? She thought her new friend's name was Carsyn? ....OH. The other girl was Carys. Carsyn and Carys. For some reason that was funny and it made the eleven year old giggle some more. "Hi Caryyyss!" This was SO FUN!

Literally. This was about the best decision that Carsyn made alllll day and she didn't even careee that she was supposed to be helping babysit their cousin. Because obviously their Aunt Mia wasn't bothered by it and knew teenagers (and pre-teens) and their attention spans. "Saaammeeeee!!!" she flailed, bouncing and rolling on the giant bubble, giggling.

"I'll be a seccoond yearrr!!! We both will!! But I'm a Gryffinnnn----rrroaaarrrr!!!" She giggled some more. Okay, yes, she was definitely gonna be sick when she got off this thing, but honestly, Carsyn didn't really care!
