When: April 1st, 4 am
Where: The lobby, bar and surrounding corridors.
Who: EVERYBODY ~~DANCE NOW~~
Why: I emo'd up my own lj for april fools, but I kind of wanted to get something going here, too. Yes, I know it's april 2nd.

Water balloons - check. Thingies which make amusing noises when stepped/sat on - check. Bucket of jelly carefully balanced on every door (and windows propped open for use in circumnavigating said doors) - check. Variety of booby traps on the floor in the style of rakes to be stepped on and banana skins - check.

Destruction put the final finishing touches on the fake spiders hanging from the ceiling and grinned. All was set. Within a few hours, everybody was going to wake up, and most probably head down this way, where they would hopefully walk into his trap.

He made his way round to the stereo he'd hooked up with all those tripwires and selected a tape. It was Queen. In fact, looking through the box, it seemed that ALL the tapes were Queen. "Huh," Destruction muttered, wondering if someone else weren't playing April Fools jokes as well, then shrugged and put in the tape. Setting the volume to the loudest setting he climbed out onto a window ledge and settled down to wait...

Luna thought she vaguely recognized the man who was standing near the window across the hall. Ah! Yes, it was... actually, she'd never gotten his name. Luna shrugged and called back, "Sure. What do you need my help for?" She walked towards him, but not really paying attention to where she was going, as she shook most of the jelly off. With a muttered "Scrougify!" she was mostly clean, but she still could feel a bit of jelly squishing between her shoulderblades.

Poor Luna never got a chance. With a surprised "Oof!" she was on her bottom, having slipped on what seemed to be... a banana peel?

Destruction laughed out loud as Luna's foot slid across the floor. And hit a tripwire...

"We are the Champions" blared out across the manor loud enough to wake the dead, and certainly enough to wake the voluntarily corporeal.

Destructions eyes crossed. It suddenly occurred to him that it may have been a good idea to invest in a pair of earplugs. Too late, however - the shock of the sound-wave blast toppled him right out of his perch on the windowsill. He landed on a rollerskate and careened across the room until he smacked into a doorframe, where he sat down abruptly.

Peals of surprised Endlessly laughter almost but not quite drowned out the music.

It was a good thing Luna was already on the floor. She winced as the loud music cut across the whole space of the restaurant and almost cried out "Silencio!" But as the large man sat there laughing, she decided against it, and instead Transfigured the banana peel into a pair of earplugs, which she promptly stuffed in her ears*.

Carefully avoiding the booby traps that she was now looking out for, she made her way over to him, and held a hand out to help him up. "Hi! I'm Luna!" she shouted as loud as she was able.

*Her ears would be smelling of banana for days. Not that it was really a problem.

"D- Uh, William!" He shouted back. "Isn't it beautiful?"

With that he took her extended hand... only to pull her down onto the floor beside him with a wide grin.

Luna landed on her bottom for the second time that day. "Ow!" To say that Luna was surprised would be correct.

Cocking her head, she looked carefully at him. "Any relation to Fred and George Weasley, Duhwilliam?!" she shouted at him.

"No," Destruction smirked. From the context he guessed that he would have if he still occupied his former role. Oh, well. "Perhaps you could introduce me sometime."

Luna sighed with relief as the blonde boy turned down the Muggle radio, and popped the earplugs out of her ears.

"Maybe," said Luna. "Sometime."
