"Hi guys! What are we starting with today?" he asked, grinning.

"Here we are. Should be a simple hair-changing charm. Let's see how it works out in this batch."
[ooc: Feel free to make up and crazy side-effects for Calvin, so long as they're non-lethal. The twins would have at least gotten it past the point of being that dangerous...though it could very well still turn him into Cousin It by mistake.]

Fred is adding liberal amounts of...well, lord only knows what to the pot on the stove. There are several rolls of paper towels nearby, because after the first three pots had spontaneously dissolved or melted, Fred had learned to keep a healty supply of cleaning materials nearby.

And then Calvin was a redhead. The change started at the center of his head and spread outwards to his furthest and most unruly bangs. Yet that wasn't all- the bangs bent and folded, his eternally spiky and unkempt hair becoming limper, smoother, cleaner, rearranging itself until it was a perfect copy of the Twins' haircut.
Calvin felt the unfamiliar sensation of hair over his ears and immediately grabbed a mirror. The red looked great, but the style was another story. "My hair! You made my hair neat!" He cried, anguished. "I have a part! I have a style! It looks like my parents just got me ready for a dorky family picture! It looks- combed!"He furiously ran his hands through it, trying to mess it back up, but wherever a hair was brought out of place the charm immediately returned it to its proper Weasleyesque position, strands moving ( ... )

“Oh-, Freddie. Striking image, innit he?” He managed between gasps. “Right chip off the old blocks.”

Oh, he and George do some fine work, it's very true. This one just might be a keeper.
"Just like one of the family. We could make him a partner now, you know. Honorary Weasley."

"Associate at m-most with that commentary," he cackled. "D-dweeb? I do believe we're being insulted."

Calvin, you're really only encouraging them.

Calvin really has nothing to worry about. Fred and George made up the antidote last night. Fred looks askance at George, waiting to see if his twin is ready to offer it.
It has ever been George's job to hold Fred back.

"You mean GIRLS WILL LIKE ME?!" Calvin grabbed at his face, stricken with mental anguish. "I'm Dictator-for-Life of the Get-Rid-Of-Slimy-girlS club! My career will be ruined by that kind of scandal! This hair is going to get me covered in cooties! My ideals! My duties! My hygiene!"
The rest was incoherent.

"Ah, well, young master, we couldn't stand to stamp out the leader of such a fine establishment. Suppose we could fix you up in honor of such a brotherhood."

It was short work to undo the effects, really. A neat little antidote in the form of another chocolate square, wrapped in birghtly colored foil. It was the twins' preferred method of distributing antidotes for their products.
"Here now, pop this in your mouth and you'll be back to your old scruffy self in no time."

He panted for a moment before speaking again, touching his hair anxiously. "Is that it? Did it work?"
