[ video; ota; mtw ] backdated to before the carnival
[ The video feed opens to a by now familiar face, except that this one eared twin is wearing a shockingly magenta robe that clashes rather magnificently with his hair. He places the communicator on something so that he can pick up what seems to be a shorter, thicker baseball bat. Fred, however, is curiously absent from the feed - instead there's a whirring sound in the background and the occasional heavy sounding thud. ]
Attention barracks! Bored and tired of sitting around waiting for the next completely madcap thing to occur?
[ And from offscreen ] Of course they are [ thud ], don't let them kid themselves.
[ George gives both his twin and the screen a winning grin. ] Too right you are, Fred. Which is why we're inviting every able bodied man, woman, and child who can withstand possible mid-air collisions and life threatening injuries to play Quidditch.
[ Thud, and something roughly cannonball shaped flies into the screen aimed directly at George's head. Who instinctively both ducks and hits the thing with the bat and sends it flying off in a completely different direction. Fred's voice is heard from offscreen again. ]
We haven't charmed the broomsticks yet so you've got time to learn how to play. Even a bunch of Muggles like yourselves shouldn't have that much of a problem.
[ Back at George, who leans forward to switch off the camera. Except right before he does there's a yelp and the sound of many things breaking, the screen going blank shortly after. ]
