This comic shop is owned by none other than the Weasley twins, Fred and George. With the thousand galleons given to them by Harry Potter, they managed to take their business from order forms at Hogwarts to a premises at Number 93, Diagon Alley.
With a many items here at the shop, here are a few of some of their crazy creations.
Canary Creams: 7 Sickles Have the appearance of Ordinary custard creams, except they transfigure the eater temporarily into a canary. Short lived however, for the person moults a few moments later, becoming his or herself once agin.
Extendable Ears: Not available in the front shop. Hidden in back. Flesh covered string, one end is attached to the listener's ear, the other is placed near what the listener wants to overhear. If a solid object with an Imperturbable Charm on it is in the way, the Extendable Ear won't be able to pick up the desired sounds.
Fainting Fancy: Available in the Skiving Snackbox. Causes eater to faint. Antidote costs extra.
Fever Fudge: Available in the Skiving Snackbox Two colored ends of the fudge, one end causes a high fever once eaten, while the other end cancels it out.
Hats, Headless: 2 galleons When placed on wearers head, the head becomes invisible. The rest of the body is seen however.
Quills: Price varies. Comes in varieties. Inking quils(inks itself without needing to manually be redipped), Smart Answer Quills, and Spell Checking Quills.
Nosebleed Nougat: Available in Skiving Snackbox Same as fudge. Two colored ends. One end causes a heavy nosebleed, while the other end will stop it immediately.
Puking Pastilles: Available in Skiving Snackbox Same as fudge and nougat. Two colored ends. One end caused puking, while the other will stop the effect.
Skiving Snackbox: Price depends on contents Box full of a variety of sweets that make the eater ill. Each different category looks like a different type of sweet and causes different illnesses.
Fake Wands: 5 Galleons When used they do something funny, like change into a tin parrot, rubber haddock, or beat the user about the head and neck.
The Weasley Twins have many other products in their shop. Many of their prototypes and new products are hidden in back, along with their most powerful and specific products.

*apparates outside the door and smiles at the window display, putting her hair in order, ensuring she looked gorgeous and alluring, and making sure her skirts were settled before stepping through the door, giggling at the bell on the door quacking as she opened it. Fred and George were always such good businessmen at school, and for all that she was the ultimate Slytherin, she did appreciate a good joke and a shrewd mind. She wanders through the aisles, laughing softly under her breath at how wonderful everything looked. Kneeling by the pygmy puffs, she stays there and plays with them, a particularly friendly purple one squirming along her fingers.*

Fred Weasley had made his way from the back, finally managing to put away their new product. He had changed his clothes and showered. Although he was still pretty miffed that George still wasn't back yet.
Hearing the quack, Fred's head shot up and he glanced around. Hoping to see George, but finding instead a very beautiful woman, giggling with the pygmy puffs.
Making his way over, "Purple's my Favourite too" One of his Favourite colors.
George was making his way from Pansy's cottage, and half way down decided to just apparate back to the shop. Although he'd wait a few minutes before actually going in. He was leaning outside the shop, beside the door, just thinking of Pansy. And the wonderful night and morning they shared.

George was having the hardest time staying away. So inorder to occupy himself he wrote a little note.
Pansy,
You're driving me crazy! You have no idea how hard it is to stay away right now.
~Trembling Boyfriend Named George
He couldn't face Fred yet, he hadn't been ready, so he just let the owl drop off the note.

Luna apparated to the front of Fred & George's joke shop. She opened the door and walked straight up to the desk, waiting for one of the twins to assist her.

Watching as Luna walked right past him and into the shop. George managed to swollow his fear, and pull himself up onto his feet. If he was dealing with a customer then maybe Fred wouldn't yell at him just yet.
Pulling at the ends of his shirt, he finally gulped and walked on in.
Smiling at Luna, he spotted Fred over in the corner chatting with another customer.
It was when Fred turned to see who else had come in that he glared.
George merely smiled back at him, trembling inside.
But then made his way up to Luna, "So Luna, what brings you to the Alley?" wantina a distraction from Pansy. Wanting to go back over there so bad at the moment.

Luna smiled.
"Hello George. Haven't seen you around since... Well, since back when the DA was formed. I still miss it... Anyway, I've come for a pygmy puff. Do you still have some?"

Pygmy Puff?
George glanced over to where the stash was. That being where Fred and the other customer were chatting.
Smiling back at Luna after a bit, "Yea actually we do...um, we have a stash back here. You can come on back." Motioning for her to follow him to the back room.
Walking through the dark curtain like drape, he made his way through the aisles till he found the little cages containing the extra Pygmy Puffs.
Picking up one of the cages, he brought it around to Luna, "Many different shapes, sizes and colors...take your pick." He smiled down at her.

*the owl swooped in and dropped a note for George at his feet*
George~
It is hard to be away from you. I count the seconds until we're together again.
Yours Always~

Luna followed George into the back room. She squealed in glee at the assortment of pygmy puffs that were in front of her. Luna noticed George's hesitation to go over near his brother.
"I don't think that Fred will be mad at you."
She looked over the pygmy puffs, and finally chose the smallest one. She talked softly to it.
"It's okay, you don't have to put up with those other bigger, meaner puffs anymore."
She smiled and pat it gently, then looked up at George.

Smiling hesitantly at Luna, she didn't know exactly what was up between the twins.
Locking up the cage, he put it back on the shelf, and was about to head to the front, but noticed the note.
Picking it up, he smiled seeing Pansy's writing. Opening it, he found her company even more resistable.
"Let's go upfront" He spoke quickly to Luna, escorting her there.
Quickly writing Pansy back, he sent Fred's owl flying, warning him to be nice.
Then he gave his attention back to Luna, "So that'll be 2 galleons" He'd give her a smaller price, because she was a friend, and he was just in a really happy mood.

Luna walked back to the front with him and paid him the two galleons.
"Thanks. And I must say, you very jumpy when it comes to mood. A minute ago you were very conserved, and now you're happy as can be... I guess it's a joke shop owners' thing, so I'll probably never understand it fully."
She paused, then continued.
"So how's business been?"

*the owl returns with another note, dropping it in front of George*
My darling George~
I can't imagine my life without you. I'm planning on going to the Three Broomsticks for a little bit. Why don't you and Fred stop by after work.
All my love~
Pansy xo

Laughing lightly, he glanced over as his brother was busy flirting. Rolling his eyes, "Business is good. Tons of students coming in, orders flying in ever hour as exams come closer and closer...the usual actually" He just decided to sum it all up with that simple sentance.
Leaning against the desk, his fingers kept tracing over Pansy's signature.

Luna raised her eyebrow.
"You're not selling things to students that would allow them to cheat on their exams, are you?"
She continued petting her pygmy puff gently.
