Default Magical Face Painting



What would a carnival be without face painting!

Want a butterfly? A crup? Dragon? A moving broomstick? Something else, perhaps? Come take a seat at the picnic table and tell the two Diagon Alley shopkeepers running the face painting table what you'd like, or simply help yourself! The table, dressed in a white plastic cloth to keep any possible spills and messes manageable, is lined with many different colors of paints, glitters, gems and other face make up to choose from and help with different designs, there may even be a stencil or two (or several) laying around.

If you haven't come with ideas in mind, no worries! A book full of endless face painting possiblities sits open to a random page on the opposite side of the two shopkeepers, just waiting to be looked through. Although they're not exactily professional face painters, if you can imagine it, Miss Chosen and Mister Carlen will do their best to paint it. And don't you know, a little magic can go a long way?

OOC: Feel free to interact with the face painting helpers Artemis Chosen (D.A Forever) and Brett Carlen (Granger1814), chat, play and paint your friends faces!

Remember that Snitchseeker site rules and the Diagon Alley Rules apply at all times. If you have any questions, you can ask them in the Diagon Alley Questions thread.

When Artie had approached him about helping her with the face painting, Brett was dubious. He wasn't exactly the most artistic person, but since he had the chance to spend time with Artemis, he certainly wasn't going to pass it up.

His gaze followed the few people who began to trickle in through the now opened entrance before slowly making his way to Artie. "Are you ready?" He asked with a smirk. "Feeling creative?"

First a bouncy house and now face painting!? That's it. Nika loves this place even more. She smiled widely as she looked at the picnic table from afar. She surely chose the right day to come to Diagon Alley. Aaand now that she's 13 her parents let her venture around alone! Which means that she can get her WHOLE face painted without getting pulled away! But what should she get on her face!? A unicorn? A dragon? A smiley face!? So many endless possibilities. So she ran up to the table without a second thought and stood there swaying back and forth and smiling as widely as humanly possible. She didn't even blink. Some may find it creepy, but Nika was in a trance. This carnival pretty much made her the happiest little 13 year old in the whole world.

Oh. My. Merlin.

Face paint?! Wow, this carnival has everything. She spotted Nika and ran over to her. "Hi Nika!" She said, probably scaring Nika out of her socks. "Want me to paint your face all purrty like?" She said, being the little artistic girl that she was. "Maybe you can paint mine afterward?"She asked, smiling widely. She felt like such a little girl.

Though Raven's parents did not want any paint on their faces, Raven couldn't be more excited. After a long day she wasn't sure she wanted her face painted tonight, but she did want it painted. She exclaimed, "I'll probably sleep in late tomorrow, but when I wake up, I'm getting my face painted. First thing!"
Her parents agreed that that was a splendid idea.

It may be fun and vacation for some especially to students but for Ryu going to this carnival is more of work... well, FUN as well. He definitely had to bring his camera for this one. He really is happy that the ministry finally gave this carnival a shot. Kudos to Lord Borr and here he thinks that Lord Borr is just painfully arrogant. This is really nice.

Ryu's camera is always by his side. Whenever he sees something incredible, he just takes multiple shots. He's happy that the students are enjoying this. Now he wishes Jonathan would come here and maybe he should take Jeanne with him. Ever since last year they both haven't been in such good terms. What happened between the two eh? They've been best friends since there diaper days and now with a blink of an eye, the two just went from childhood bestfriends to strangers who go in the same school.

Tsk. Tsk.

He looked at the kids as they passed by. Smiling at them he took a shot at each kid who was brave enough to get themselves covered in paint. Really cool.

Angelina saw a sign saying magical face painting, and got very excited! She ran over near the tables, and looked threw the books, to find out what she wanted. Once she did, she waited for someone to help her, get the object painted on her face.

Oh, they had potential paintees! Brett grinned at Artie and beckoned to one of the girls who appeared to be waiting. "Come on over! Do you have anything particular in mind or do you just want it to be a surprise?"

FACE PAINTING?!

This place just kept getting better and better. Macy loooooved carnivals. Especially this one, now that she had been. Most of the carnivals and things she'd been to were muggle attractions, however this being a wizarding fair made it all the better.

"Ooooohh," she said, more to herself that anybody in particular. So many pretty colors. She couldn't even begin to decide what to have painted. Thankfully there was a big book of ideas. Which she might be needing. Though she was already considering a big sparkly bat on her face, or maybe getting it painted to look like pikachu. PIKACHU WAS THE BEST. Or maybe like a panda? Pandas were fun.

So many ideas...

Fee was just wandering around the carnival to get to see all the insanly cool things they had here.She had never expected a carnival to come here to Diagon Alley,what kinda really made it even more awesome. This summer could only be the best of their lifes.The Slytherin would spend HOURS here,just walking around and going on some rides.

Unfortunately everyone seemed to be on vacation at different times what made it kinda hard to figure out when to meet friends.But the carnival was the perfect place for a meet up before or after ,or even both, going on vacation.Maybe the blonde was lucky and she would find some of her lovely friends wandering around,just like her.

Launna noticed a crowd of people standing near the Petting Zoo and went over to have a closer look. She saw to her surprise that it was a face painting stand - she hadn't thought that they'd have face painting even in the wizarding world! She picked up the book of face paint ideas and is amazed to see that it was possible to have moving pictures! She had to have one. Launna heaped her shopping bags on the ground and leant her new broom against one of the chairs. Perhaps she could have a broom face painting? She wandered over to one of the shopkeepers. She thought she recognised them - oh yes, they were the shopkeeper at Flourish & Blotts! 'Hi, I was wondering whether I could have a face painting of my new Firebolt,' she asked, pointing towards her broomstick. 'And perhaps it could be chasing a golden snitch...?' She dug her hand into one of her bags and pulled out the snitch she'd bought at Quality Quidditch Supplies. 'Like this one?' She smiled hopefully.

Brett watched as a number of people approached the table and talked amongst themselves, some looking through the designs in the book. No one had yet approached them to ask for a design to be painted, but that was fine with Brett. It was just as good watching them be creative in their own way.

Ah, he spoke too soon. As a young girl approached him, he smiled, recognizing her from the bookstore. He studied the broomstick, quite impressed that she had a Firebolt. "You play Quidditch?" He asked as he began to pull a few paint jars towards him. "I can definitely try to give you the most accurate drawing. We'll see what a little magic can do."

He gestured for her to sit on the bench next to him, and then eyed the broom critically.

two sides of the same coin

All Desiree had been hearing about was this carnival, so she figured she'd give it a try, it took a lot to convince her parents though, especially after she accidently mentioned the freak show. Her parents didn't want her being exposed to that kind of stuff, but she promised them she would avoid it.

Walking into the carnival the first thing she spotted was a colorful booth with people getting their face painted. That was DEFINITELY where she was stopping first.. now what to get? You could get moving ones! Oh my gosh! Desiree loved magic.. smiling to herself she looked through the book and decided on a colorful butterfly which would flap its wings and fly around her face. Her design decided on she waited excitedly for someone to help her..

Launna sat down on the bench. Magic she thought to herself. Magic! Every time someone mentioned the word she couldn’t help but grin with excitement. Soon enough she’d be able to do magic just like that! (Hopefully, any way!) ‘I play Quidditch a lot at home with friends ‘cause we live near some woods,’ she said in reply to the man’s question. ‘We sometimes play Shuntbumps too, but I have to use my father’s broom and it’s pretty old. So I thought that since I’m starting at Hogwarts I’d better get a decent broom if I want to get onto the house team.’ She saw him looking critically at the broom - he looked like an expert. ‘As soon as I saw the Firebolt I just had to get one! You see, even though this’ll be my first year at Hogwarts I’ll be in my fourth year and, to make up for the three years I’ve missed out on, I’m joining every club, every team…Quidditch, gobstones, wizard’s chess…’
‘I might miss out on the homework club though,’ she added thoughtfully.

Though it was never quite a dull moment in Diagon Alley what with the busy shoppers and excited students, and their lives had certainly taken an.. odd turn, over the last year, which she was still working on making up for, Artemis couldn't have been more happy by the fact they had gotten a travelling carnival to agree to come out. They were a friendly bunch, Artie quickly learned, and she had been very excited to offer her and Brett's assistance with face painting for the event. She was sure it would be something fun for them to do together, and gave her another excuse to escape the chaos of her shop a little bit sooner and spend extra time with him.

And of course, Artemis couldn't resist the opportunity to take her sister's ten-month-old son, Vincent, for the evening to experience the carnival. Even if he was a bit too young to do much and wouldn't remember it when he was a little bit older, it was something Artie would remember, something she could tell him about one day. Absently, her hand gently stroked the little blonde locks on the child's head as he cuddled into her, apparently content to sit and watch anything and everything around them. Artemis' gaze turned from noticing the few people walking by, to looking back to Brett, a warm, happy smile playing on her lips. "I'm ready and excited," Artie said, her smile growing a bit. "What about you?"

A handful of children began to join them at the long picnic table, most in pairs it seemed. Artie was more than happy to supervise and watch their creations come to life as a few painted their friends faces, each so different than the next. With one arm wrapped around her nephew seated in her lap, Artie observed Brett with the young girl for a moment before her attention turned toward another young girl, smaller than some of the slightly older ones, as she looked through the book of suggestions. When she had come to a pause, Artie took it as a sign that perhaps she had found the design she liked. "Hey there," Artie greeted, offering the little blonde a gentle smile. "Want some help?"

Desiree heard someone talking to her and quickly turned around to see a girl with a little boy in her lap, he was adorable. "Hello" Desiree greeted the girl, returning the smile. "Oh Yes, thank you, I was hoping you would be able to paint this one.." she said pointing out the butterfly design that was fluttering around in the book. "He's very cute, how old is he?" Desiree asked smiling at the baby, she loved little kids. She had two three-year-old cousins, both boys.

Brett smiled at Artie as she answered him, and then dropped his gaze to her little nephew who sat quietly in her lap, apparently content in his current situation.

"You know that I"m ready. Ready and willing to do anything when I get to spend time with you." Yeah, it was cheesy, but he was still feeling the effects of Artie's unwilling and long absence from his life. A brief frown flickered across his face before he smiled again. He couldn't worry about that now. It was over and done with and he was determined not to let her out of his sight again.

A playful smile suddenly emerged as he looked at Artemis, an idea of genius proportions having occurred.

"Well, I can completely understand that. The Firebolt is a pretty darn nice broom. You're lucky to have one." He glanced at the broom again and then lifted the brush to began painting. "Hold real still..." He warned quietly. "Where'd you go to school previously?"

He began to swipe the brush along one cheek. "Sounds like a lot of ambition to me though I wouldn't want to join the homework club either." He said with a laugh as he began to paint the twigs of the broom.

Launna almost nodded in agreement then remembered she was supposed to be staying still. 'I went to a muggle school... it was alright but Hogwarts is gonna be a million times better. I just wish I could have convinced my mum to send me sooner,' she sighed. Launna thought this made her mum sound a bit mean, so she quickly added: 'She's a muggle, so she doesn't really understand about magic - my father was a wizard but she never found out until he was sent to Azkaban for using an unforgivable curse. So you can understand if she's a bit put off by that. Any doubts she had about sending me to a muggle school were forgotten when she visited him in that place - it was the last straw seeing all of them creepy dementors sucking the happiness out of you... She thought magic gave people too much power and that it turned people evil.' She laughed. 'But that's just stupid - I mean sure, my dad was a bit of a nutter but it's not like I'm gonna turn out to be Voldemort or something, is it? I'm in Hufflepuff and that house has produced the last dark wizards and witches out of all of them.'

'But that's just stupid - I mean sure, my dad was a bit of a nutter but it's not like I'm gonna turn out to be Voldemort or something, is it? I'm in Hufflepuff and that house has produced the last dark wizards and witches out of all of them.'
Brett listened quietly as Launna explained her previous schooling and information about her mother and father. His brow quirked slightly at the revelation that her father was in Azkaban. "Scary place, that is." He murmured as he continued to flesh out the details of the broom, glancing in that direction every so often. "Sorry to hear about your dad."

He smiled slightly upon hearing her kidding about Hufflepuff and dark wizards. "I think you'll be okay on that front. Do you know what you're planning to do after Hogwarts?"

With a parting wave to the man, she turned and stormed away from Victor. Yeah. He was sleeping with his dog in the doghouse tonight.
Victor followed with clenched fists, making sure that none of the strange men weren't trailing them. When they approached the face painters, he stowed his wand away and hung back, only offering a quick nod to the shopkeepers.

you live your life just once, so don't forget about a thing called love.

"Victooor," she said as she turned to look back at her husband. "Come here. Don't you wanna see what they'll paint on my face? I'll let you pick it," she smiled brightly. Adriana then turned around to look to see if any of the painters were available.

Brett had finished painting a young girl's face a few minutes ago and was now absently watching the carnival goers while glancing at Artie every so often with a smile.

As a couple approached the table, he smiled in greeting. "Hello. You've come to try your hand at face painting?"

Heaving a heavy sigh, Victor stepped forward and wrapped an arm around Adriana's shoulder. He didn't want to "pick it"; he hardly wanted to be here. But if it would make her smile return then so be it.

"Afternoon," she said, sliding a few galleons across the table. "Whatever the lady wants."

Adriana grabbed Victor's hand with one of hers and intertwined their fingers. She suddenly had an urge to be inseparable from him. Oh, how she loved her husband with all her heart.

"How about...hmm...some whiskers? And a little black nose? Like a cat?" She looked up at Victor, as if trying to gauge his approval of her suggestion.

Brett was slightly startled as the man slid a few galleons across the table. "Of course, sir, but the painting doesn't cost anything." He glanced between the woman and man before turning his attention back to the woman. Cat? He could do that. It would be easier than some of the paintings he had done earlier.

He waited silently while the couple made up their mind, his fingers absently twirling a brush.
