Weasleys Wizard Wheezes: The Ministry Disapproved Edition (The Liability Remix) [HP; Percy; Gen]

Title: Weasleys Wizard Wheezes: The Ministry Disapproved Edition (The Liability Remix)
Author: [livejournal.com profile] sullensiren
Fandom: Harry Potter
Characters: Percy Weasley
Summary: From the Desk of Percival Ignatius Weasley, Concerning the twins' latest product line.
Warnings: None
Spoilers: Through OotP, I suppose.
Rating: PG
Title, Author and URL of Original Story: Weasleys Wizard Wheezes: The Spring 2006 Edition, by [livejournal.com profile] xylodemon.
Disclaimer: I don't own them! They belong to Rowling, I was just borrowing them!
Feedback: Yes Please!
Author's Notes: All images, sparkly fonts, and phrasing on the original ads was done by [livejournal.com profile] xylodemon. The catalogue itself was all her doing. All I added were Percy's notes. Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] tygress for all the help with formatting and graphics! The original story was posted before the publication of Deathly Hallows and the thing that happened therein, so for the sake of comedy, this can be considered AU wherein that thing did not happen.


From the Desk of: Percival Ignatius Weasley
Attn: Fred & George Weasley
Concerning: Weasleys Wizard Wheezes: The Spring 2006 Edition

Fred and George,
This is most certainly NOT my area of expertise, and I didn't have the time to spare to look over all your toys. But since I'm related to you, apparently that means it gets delegated to me, nonetheless. Enclosed you'll find a copy of your latest catalogue and my attached notes. If you would actually read them this time, it might prevent me having to do so in the future!
Regards,
Percy

P.S. Don't bother sending anything by post; I have people checking my mail first. So all you'll do is end up torturing strangers.

P.P.S. And don't try to send it to me at home, either!

♥ Percy.
That is wonderful. Such a perfectly adorable and dry sense of humor.

Yay!

I love Percy in this. So dry, the perfect foil.

Oh my, this was brilliance and hilarious. What a great idea! And your frustrated Percy was well done.

This is pure genius. Evil genius, to be exact.

OMG Percy is hilarious. I loved this--very creative, and entertaining in general. The descriptions of the products sounded exactly like Fred and George, too, hahaha. I loved the "Adults Only" section. *dies laughing*

Ahahahahahahahahaahahaha!

This cracked me up so much. This is so very Percy.

Oh, poor Percy! You just know Fred and George told the protestors that he was responsible for handling all their product testing and legal complaints, and he got swamped by even more trouble.

I LOVE IT. I LOVE IT. I LOVE IT.
Seriously, how do you come up with this stuff? Brilliant...

[identity profile] obeetaybee.livejournal.com 2008-04-22 03:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Brilliant!

[identity profile] priestess-grrrl.livejournal.com 2008-04-22 04:09 pm (UTC)(link)
hahaha, this is hilarious! The "adults only" part was the best! You totally have Percy down to a T...! ^_^

[identity profile] tekalynn.livejournal.com 2008-04-22 11:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Hahaaa! Can't breathe for laughing.

I feel for Percy, I really do. And his outraged inkblots.

That's so funny!

I thought this was just hilarious. Well done for such an imaginative piece!

This is hysterical! What a fun twist on the original!

Heh, I was so relieved you liked it. I was worried that with the text all done in graphics, it would look like I hadn't DONE enough. Thank you so much!

[personal profile] lorax 2008-04-26 11:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you! Heh, [livejournal.com profile] tygress did the graphics part, and I told her I wanted him to be "increasingly frustrated" as he went along, so she added the inkblots and such to show that.

Yay! I've always wanted my own shiny Internet. I will love it and hug it and call it Bob.

Thank you! The original catalogue set up was all [livejournal.com profile] xylodemon's doing!

Hee, I snuck that in on a whim and then decided it was fun to leave it! I'm glad it made you laugh - thank you!

Thank you! I was honestly a little worried that it was TOO liberal a take on remixing, and too much use of the source, but in the end I liked it too much and risked it. I'm glad I did! Thanks again!
