Default Make Your Own Fireworks Booth


At this booth, enjoyment can be found for children and adults alike. Make your own firework! On display are a variety of what may seem like random items taken from the three shops represented: Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes, Cranville Quincey's Magical Junk Shop, and Wiseacre's Wizarding Equipment. Creating your own firework will be a breeze and hopefully all will be able to enjoy these safely when the fireworks are displayed!

There are three steps in the process:
Firstly, pick what material(s) will encompass what your firework looks like. This will be the vessel, or holder, of your firework before it goes KABOOM! Perhaps you want it to look like a wand, or maybe you've got a more interesting idea in mind. The possibilities are endless with all of the items on display!

Then, pick what your firework will display as it explodes in the sky. What shape will the lights take? Someone working the booth will help with the magic involved in that if anyone needs assistance!

Finally, the best part, pick what colors will display in the sky! Once you have finished all the steps, hand your product to any of the shopkeepers running the booth, and they will magic the firework together for you! Tada!
All fireworks made will be displayed at the end of the grand event, so creativity is welcome!

SPOILER!!: List of items that can be used as the fireworks' vessel:
Cauldrons (of all caliber, origin, and colors, both new and old)
Cracked Compasses
Crystal Balls (fake)
Red (old) Remembralls
Telescopes (new and old)
Old Wands (broken)
Balloons (of all shapes, sizes, and colors)
Fanged Frisbees
Enchanted Coins


**This is not an exhaustive list. You can use anything else that you think would be on display from the three shops manning this booth that would make a good firework vessel.

_____

OOC: Pick the vessel, what shape the firework will display, and the colors involved. Your firework may give a certain joke shop owner some inspiration...
This booth is manned by Nicolas Couture (LilFox06), Ethan Howland (siriusblackliveson), and Randall Stavros (kayquilz).

Kaboom? Kaboom.

The concept of creating their own fireworks and blowing things up was no foreign concept to the Flamsteed twins and dad had quickly learned about the necessity for more potent protective charms around his office and anywhere he kept anything of any importance. Finding the remains of some old long term project dad had performed while at Hogwarts, jars and a whole bunch of powdered elements, had not only blown a small hole in his office wall but cause the blonde duo some minors cuts, bruises, and loss of eyebrows.

Totally worth it though.

So to hear that there was a booth that encouraged them to make things go BOOM...well...it was a real no brainer. Much to the lament of their dad. Atlas was pretty sure he had witnessed some of the man's soul leave his body on an exasperated exhale.

Promising to meet their dad for lunch once they were finished, Atlas was the one actually leading the way this time and with a grin on his face. "How big do you think the vein in dad's forehead will get if we both use telescopes for vessels?" he asked his brother with a jab of the elbow to his side to grab Aries' attention.

Serena was attracted to the things that go BOOM so naturally she'd be drawn to this specific booth. And who else would bring potential fun? A witch named Ashley, of course. Serena couldn't think of anyone else with a wicked mind like herself. A compliment.

When she reached the booth, Serena took quick glances at the items available for them. She had sent Ashley an owl and invited her to this part of the event in hopes they could make something go BOOM. Her mum had broken out with joy when Serena asked for permission to hangout with a friend. She was even allowed to go without parental supervision--save the bodyguards. Those were permanent.

Ash was very excited to get an owl from Serena(could have been a text message, but still). Despite hanging out with several friends, Ash still felt very alone. But Serena... maybe understood her more than other people did. They did share a love of explosions. And Ash was already in town for the week, so why not go to this festival as well?

Her bodyguards were not as happy about this. They said that she absolutely HAD to bring them along if she was going to be doing fireworks stuff. Ugh. She picked Dustin, leaving Alex in a food place to become better at pretending to be a wizard. She practically dragged Dustin down the street by the arm. Irritatingly, he was a lot bigger and somewhat stronger, and he was setting the pace. But they still made it to the celebrations fairly quickly. So quickly, in fact, that Serena wasn't even there. Ash made the executive decision to get face paint. She picked a butterfly design and Dustin even got it matching. BEST BODYGUARD/BABYSITTER EVER!!!

Face painting done, Ash headed back to the fireworks station and saw Serena. Serena was clearly the coolest ever, as evidenced by the fact that she knocked out Healer Poppy. Soooo... "Serena!!! Hi!" Ash was so much happier than usual, she was practically as happy as Lisa on a regular day. "This is Dustin. He said I couldn't do fireworks without bringing him, so I brought him because..." She waved her arms at the fireworks station. "I love fireworks! No one can stop me from doing pyrotechnics stuff. Nobody." She grinned, completely ignoring Dustin's exasperated look. She hoped that Serena didn't mind happy Ashley. It was rare phenomenon... she could stop being happy if that was preferable.

Storm's feet found her perfect early birthday present. She had released her dad's hand (it was a daughter-father kinda day, her mother was off somewhere for her work as usual), and he was panting behind her trying to catch up. Storm Chosen-Carter would be ten in exactly one month from today, and her dad provided she could either go on this all-day fun-day where she would choose ALL the games and ALL the food she wanted to have and give up her tarantula farm pet idea on her actual birthday, OR she could wait a month and get the tarantula farm but also get yelled at by her mom and possibly get eaten while sleeping.

She chose to come today to this all day of fun. At first, she acted like she wasn't impressed but by the second bernie botts' bean (tasted like grass), she was laughing and enjoying herself. Sugar did that to her.

The first 'adventure' was the fireworks booth, there was NOWAY Storm would pass an opportunity like this where she'd have a chance to see colours blow up in the sky. No way.

She stood there, mouth agape (brown tongue slightly showing from the grass-flavoured bean) and eyes twinkling. Where would her fireworks erupt from? HMMM.

Default hi all of you ^_^
A Poop * k8 *

Randy was VERY much excited that all of their hard work and planning behind the scenes here in the Alley were finally coming to fruition. And his booth?! It was already getting traction! What could possibly be better than this?! He knew his daughters were around the other booths somewhere, but he had given them some gold to spend and was sure they were having just the dandiest of times!

Now, to the kiddos here!

There was a set of twins that caught his eye first, and Randy just grinned in their direction as they approached. "Telescopes you say?" he interjected excitedly. "There's LOTS of different kinds......" and colors. And anything they wanted, really. "Aren't you two little adventurers. I can see it in your eyes. That TWINKLE." He made jazz hands and his eyes got REALLY ROUND AND BIG on the word twinkle.

And now a couple of younger girls with burly fellows following behind them. Randy wouldn't pretend to understand any of the customers' situations, so he just smiled and waved at them as they approached. "Good day, young ladies! I hope you have fun! Enjoy the fire!" he gestured at the table all BIG and just laughed.

The other girl was on her own, and he could see the look in her eyes. She was IMPRESSED. "Hello there! Did you need help with anyone, dearie?"

That was not fair! Ashley's bodyguard had their face painted. Serena shot a look at her pair of bodyguards--who stood a few ways away, keeping an eye on her, and leaving her alone at the same time--and narrowed her eyes at them. "Oi! Why aren't your faces painted too?!" Per usual, the men didn't blink an eye and remained at their post, watching.

It was dumb, but Serena was lowkey grateful for them. Especially when a few years ago she was almost kidnapped. A tag that comes along with having a famous Quidditch player as a mum and uncle and a grandfather.

Serena ignored them ignoring her and smiled at Ashley, whom was happy today. Really, really happy. This was a side she hadn't seen before. Not bad, just new. "Same. I had to bring mine." Serena jabbed her thumb at the men standing a few yards away behind her. "Stefan and Flavios."

Maybe it was fireworks that made Ashley all happy, Serena's smile widened a little more. "Of course, no one will stop you. We'll tag team." Her smile turned into a smirk. Fire was Serena's natural element. Before she got a wand her magic manifested in a lot of accidental fires or explosions whenever she was in distress or extremely excited. The latter was rare.

"I like your face, by the way." Face paint was cool.

Her smile faded when a stranger approached them. Serena guessed he must be the one in charge of this booth.

SPOILER!!: Randy

Enjoy the fire, indeed.

"Thank you," she said curtly. "So we just put things together and make them go boom?" Or was HE going to rob them of their fun? Like adults normally did.

Default Hi Serena, hi Randy
Which came first, the phoenix or the flame?

Ash tilted her head at Serena. “Did you tell them to get their faces painted?” Because if she hadn’t told them to, why would they do it? Made no sense. Ash waved at Serena’s bodyguards. “Hi Stefan and Flavios.” They didn’t look as friendly as Dustin, but then again not many bodyguards did. “I bet Dustin can do face paint.” She turned to him. “Dad, can you do face paint?” He smirked and ruffled her hair, not bothering to correct her. He nodded. “See? If your bodyguards are into face paint or makeup, Dustin could do it.” Unless they didn’t want face paint or makeup. Then they didn’t need to get any.

She also waved at the fireworks guy. “Hi Sir!!! I love fireworks!” She gave him a BIG smile. “Serena, I’m thinking of getting a Phoenix firework in a fake crystal ball. What about you?” She looked back at the fireworks guy. “I like Phoenixes, see?” She showed him her fake tattoo. “I’m gonna get a real one one day.” HEY! Dustin was disagreeing under his breath, she could hear it!!! She pouted. “You can’t say no to this face, can you?”Dad Dustin just laughed. Ash winked at Serena. “I’m getting that tattoo.” Ash was COMMITTED. She had two years to convince him. It was happening. ”Are you ready for fireworks, Serena? This is gonna be EPIC.” She just knew it. She was so sure this would be awesome, she had decided to be happy today.

Nic was here to represent the junk shop and did not mind at all. Making things go boom seemed like a good use of time. This was also good to help clear out some of the inventory.

He was by no means a firework expert, but he'd help out anyone that needed some help. He was also keeping up the stock of vessels laid out on the table. He was good at stock, that's how he got a shop job in the first place.

"On your left." he said ducking around his fellow shopkeeper, Randy, to set a few more things on the table.

Randy scritched his beard as he nodded at the girl. "Yes. Pick what vessel will hold your firework, from this pile here," he gestured EXCITEDLY. "Then, tell one of us - " he pointed himself and the other shopkeepers working the booth, "What you want the firework to explode INTO in the sky. And last...you get to pick the colors of everything! At the firework show later, we'll display ALL fireworks made. And you can make as MANY as you want!" he griiiiiinned aaaaalllllll big. "If you have any other questions, please just let me know!" He pointed at the nametag he was wearing, too. RANDY STAVROS AT YOUR SERVICE, KIDDO.

Well, wasn't this one quite excitable? "I do love fireworks, too.... the directions I just gave go for you, too, yes? Have fun! Make as many as you'd like to see in the sky later!" and he waved up at the sky cheerfully. He gathered the girl he'd just spoken to was Serena considering how many times this excited one said her name. Yes, yes, kids. Kids made the world go round sometimes.

At least he had his own to smother with love!

Randy was lucky to have a booth guy like Nic to help because HE was not as apt at keeping the stock up. The joke shop worked differently, and it was a bit of an organized chaos going on over at Wheezes. It was how Randy functioned. Everything had a place even if it didn't look like it did. That wasn't to say he kept his shop a complete mess! It was fine. He just did things at his own pace. And right now, the fireworks were distracting from keeping up the inventory!

At Nic's words, Randy swiped to the right to get out of his way. "You're such a swift guy, Nic! Merlin's pants!"

Grinning like his life depended on it, okay his life didn't depend on it. Grinning like the adult about to make things go boom with the kids at his booth for the 600 year celebration was the absolute only way he wanted to make things go BoOm!!!!!!

With more pep in his step than was probably necessary he dropped some of the things he had gathered from the back of Wiseacre's and looked at Randy and Nic with a wicked grin. "Well who is ready to make things go boom?" Not only was he looking at his extremely awesome booth mates, he was looking at the kids who looked equally as excited to make things go BOOM.

Rubbing his hands together before one ran through his hair he glanced at the work of the children's at the tables. "Noice work young troublemakers." He hoped the grin on his face would let them know he didn't think they were actual trouble makers, but just having fun. Ethan lived for this kind of stuff and couldn't believe they were actually doing this.

"No," Serena grumbled in their direction. "My dad said they aren't my pets or toys and that I have to respect them." EYE ROLLLLLLLLLLL. Security was boring.

The wires in Serena's head crossed when Ashley referred to Dustin as dad. Wasn't he the bodyguard? Or had Serena misunderstood? Or was her dad both? "Dustin is your dad?" she asked curiously. Was the other guy her uncle? Was it a family business?

Listening to Ashley talk about her future tattoo, Serena nodded. Yes, Ashley would get her tattoo and when that happens Serena wishes to be there. "I want to be there when that happens," she voiced aloud. It'll be great.

Glancing at the items available, Serena decided what vessel she wanted. "I want a cauldron as a vessel, and something cool to explode out of it. I'm not sure what, yet." Hmm.


SPOILER!!: Randy

Serena's eyes narrowed just a tiiiiiny bit at the man. "So...we can't handle the explosives?" That sounded..."For the fireworks?" she added. She was looking forward to handling all the things on her own.

He gathered the girl he'd just spoken to was Serena considering how many times this excited one said her name. Yes, yes, kids. Kids made the world go round sometimes.

At least he had his own to smother with love!

The wires in Serena's head crossed when Ashley referred to Dustin as dad. Wasn't he the bodyguard? Or had Serena misunderstood? Or was her dad both? "Dustin is your dad?" she asked curiously. Was the other guy her uncle? Was it a family business?

Listening to Ashley talk about her future tattoo, Serena nodded. Yes, Ashley would get her tattoo and when that happens Serena wishes to be there. "I want to be there when that happens," she voiced aloud. It'll be great.

Glancing at the items available, Serena decided what vessel she wanted. "I want a cauldron as a vessel, and something cool to explode out of it. I'm not sure what, yet." Hmm.




Serena's eyes narrowed just a tiiiiiny bit at the man. "So...we can't handle the explosives?" That sounded..."For the fireworks?" she added. She was looking forward to handling all the things on her own.


Ash was very very very very shocked. "So you're saying that Stefan and Flavios DON'T like face paint???" Why not??? Did it feel bad on their face or something? "Not even butterfly face paint???" She stared at them both very very confusedly. Huh. Oh well. Maybe Dustin stole their love of face paint and added it to his personality so that he could love face paint more than everybody else. She wasn't telling. Stealing was only wrong sometimes...

Wait. Wait wait wait wait wait. "Dustin's not my dad, he's my bodyguard." OH. HAD SHE CALLED HIM HER DAD??? THAT WAS EMBARRASSING. She turned more than a little bit pink. "I never said he was my dad. And if I did, we're all going to forget that I did. Because Dustin is definitely not my dad and I don't think of him as my dad and if I did... then- then nobody would know about it." Was she rambling? She was rambling. It was very hot in here.

Dustin very quietly picked up Ashley's hand and held onto it.

He was HOLDING HER HAND NOW. THIS WAS THE WORST. CHANGE THE SUBJECT PLEASE. She gripped his hand more tightly. Pls pls pls never discuss this again ever.

"Ashley, the guy said you can make as many fireworks as you want, and they're all going to be displayed."

"Right. Riiiight. Cool cool cool. Um, I wanna have multiple phoenixes but I also want to have something else. Maybe a heart or something. Is there like, a way to make a beating heart out of fireworks? Would that be like, two fireworks in rapid succession or is that like, impossible? Also, butterflies. I like butterflies..." WHY was it so hot in here? It felt like people were looking at her. Were people looking at her? OMG, people were looking at her. It was way too hot in here.

*sappysapper* MAJNOO, YO!

For the longest time Aries believed their calling was everything to do with anything which can eventually explode - and to be honest he still believed it to this day. So it really was a no brainier for them to head for this booth first.

Laughing at idea of telescopes as vessels - Aries knocked over a few crystal balls to reach for some said telescopes, ”I think metaphorically his heart may explode first” And did they really want to be this cruel??? A thought he really couldn’t entertain for long as some old guy started to talk to them. ”Thanks” he grinned, our parents say the same”

HMMM.

“So - how about mix these telescopes with crystal balls and old wands and make like a mega rocket????”

Now was not the time to be making jokes, and he wasn't entirely meaning to make one either, but when a thought appeared in Atlas' mind it was always a bit of Russian Roulette as to whether or not it can spilling out of his mouth.

Right now was one of those times.

"If the war didn't take dad out, we're probably good for no explosions over telescopes," he nodded thoughtfully and with a casualness to his tone as if he were simply stating a fact from the encyclopedia. It wasn't cruel if the telescope's sole purpose left was to be utilized in this way. Surely even dad could see that. Or else Uncle Andrei of mum would melt them down for parts and such with their metal charming. "Yup," Atlas nodded in agreement to his brother with the man who had surely stuck a fork in an electric socket like he had done around the age of 4 as an experiment on conductivity or at the very least worn fuzzy socks and then rubbed them all over a carpet and touched a metal door knob spoke to them. "Sometimes even to our own detriment."

But, back to the task at hand.

Explosions and pyromantics were practically in the Flamsteed twins' DNA and it was a talent that Atlas was glad to share with his brother. Though he would point out that his, Atlas', Bombardas were more proficient. He HAD, after all, blown up that door during the battle in the spare office...that had then lead to no where but more places to hide. But he had still managed it in the moment of need. Reliable kabooms.

"I like that thought," he nodded as he grabbed for a couple of wands and examined them. It looked like there may still be some remnants of cores in a few of them, though obviously damaged. "It will be fascinating to see the way that all these magical elements and combustibles combine." Then, without even thinking about it, he pocketed a pair of wands and then moved on to selecting a crystal ball with a pleasant violet sheen to it.

That wasn't to say he kept his shop a complete mess! It was fine. He just did things at his own pace. And right now, the fireworks were distracting from keeping up the inventory!

At Nic's words, Randy swiped to the right to get out of his way. "You're such a swift guy, Nic! Merlin's pants!"

Nic nodded. He had it under control. It was really the one thing he was good at.

Nic chuckled a bit at the other boothmate. "I would have loved this as a kid. Lost my mind probably." Honestly. He felt the same as an adult.

Nic actually laughed out loud. "Sorry, kids. Got to be a little bit responsible." he explained. They were already letting them do a pretty hazardous thing. Couldn't go all out on the irresponsibility.
