Who: Jake Peralta and Fred Weasley What: Encounter in the joke shop When: Monday afternoon Where: Weasley Wizard Wheezes Warnings: TBD; probably low Status: Closed/In Progress
It wasn't Jake's first time in Weasley Wizard Wheezes, but for some reason it hadn't occurred to him until Amy told him that there were people from Harry Potter here that it might be owned by the actual Weasleys. He figured it was just someone's tribute to the series or something.
So today, he had come to the joke shop not just to look at the merchandise (he did rather enjoy doing that), but also to try and meet one of the Weasleys.
He was not disappointed. Now that he was looking, it was easy to spot Fred Weasley. Jake cleared his throat, trying to disguise how excited he was to meet one of his favourite characters from the Harry Potter series... when, suddenly, he was falling.
"Oh no," Jake said to himself, horrified, "it's happening again!" And indeed, his body reflexively reached out to grab something, anything, to keep him from falling... and he grabbed Fred's pants, pulling them down.
"This happens EVERY TIME," Jake said in a voice that was dramatically half-crying.
