Log;

Showtime.

Percy couldn't ever remember being more nervous. This wasn't just him, wasn't just his dreams riding on this. This was what Fred and George had wanted, what they had planned for themselves. Ginny was somewhere in the shop, and he hoped she wasn't as nervous. But then, she was better at this sort of thing than he was. She was good at engaging people, at making them like her. He was good at talking, good at speeches and statements - but would that translate?

Even his outfit made him nervous. Nothing in a wardrobe full of somberly colored three piece suits and perfectly coordinated ties and shoes said 'joke shop.' Not that he ever would have worn the suits Fred and George had preferred - but they might have suited the mood a little better. Eventually, he'd chosen the brown suit Rose had picked out for him and a tie with blue, red, and grey stripes, and he hoped for the best.

The bell above the door jingled, and he took in a breath to steady his nerves as he stepped forward.

"Welcome to Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes!"

Showtime.

[No, she isn't nervous. Ginny doesn't do nerves, not where people can see, and this is such a happy occasion after all the difficulties the family (well, what's left of it) has gone through—she can't help but beam, be pleased that it's come to this, that the shop hadn't fallen into disrepair and abandon like it had the last time the twins left.

So, yes, Percy's spot-on: his sister is weaving expertly through the shop and patrons, ready with a friendly greeting and an explanation for whatever products are on the shelves. (And no, she isn't above biting back a warning just so you can find out for yourself!) As for the dress code, well, gold's always been her colour—but she isn't about to try and outdo the twins on flash and lets the overall Weasleyness of the shop speak for itself.]

Rose arrives a bit later in the afternoon, probably a bit toward evening. She's had all the coddling and staying in bed she can handle for the moment. It probably took a good deal of convincing to get the Doctors to let her out to see what was up at the magic shop but she's hear and she's got a smile, a bit tired, but still a smile, for Percy.

'Least you've got a smart suit for the occasion."

Of course she's going to compliment his suit!
