Monday (ahem) Morning, Weasley's Wizard Wheezes

[fredoftheburrow.livejournal.com]

Considering how extremely cold it was outside, Fred decided to brew his own batch of Pepper Up Potion, as it might come in handy. Fred added the ingredients, but as it was so very unusually cold out, he decided to add a slightly more liberal amount of spice to the recipe than was totally necessary. He also added a hint of pumpkin, for flavor.

When the recipe was done, Fred tasted it, and stepped outside. It had worked! He was no longer cold outdoors! Then he burped... and a small jet of flame burst out of his mouth, singeing his eyebrows.

"Oh dear," said Fred.


[ooc: open to all! fyi, the mat is not out tonight--that would just be cruel and unusual, even to a doormat]

Jane noticed the guy belching fire.

"The fuck are you drinking?"

"It's called Pepper Up Potion--it'll warm you up. I thought it would be good considering how cold out it is. Although," Fred said sheepishly, "you may have noticed that it has a few, uh, adverse side effects."

"No shit." Jane said with a smile. Then offered her hand.

"Jane Canary."

Fred shook Jane's hand.

"Pleased to meet you, Jane," said Fred. "I'm Fred Weasley. And there's no poo in the potion either."

"...Good to know."

Fred grinned and offered her a small glass of potion.

"Feeling chilly?"

...

"Oh, what the Hell."

Jane grabbed the bottle and took a pull.

Fred took the bottle back from Jane and stepped back a few paces--he wasn't quite sure how far the flames would go.

"So what do you think?" he asked.
