"And look at Percy's scores," Mrs. Weasley said waving the piece of parchment in the air. |Fred sighed looking down at his own grades. They weren't horrible, but they were nowhere near perfect Percy's grades.

"We should make something special for dinner tonight, what do you think, Percy?"

"Could we have a roast?" Percy asked hopefully. Fred sighed slipping from the kitchen. He'd never been asked his opinions for dinner, and he really hated roast.

"Gred, there you are!"

"Forge, Mum's going all nonsense over Percy's grades again."

"What else is new, come on. I got an idea for a prank. We could..." Fred only half listened as he followed his twin brother upstairs. It wasn't that the pranks weren't awesome, or that he didn't enjoy watching the reactions him and George got, but sometimes, he wished he could be Percy. He wished he could make top marks, be the center of his Mum's attention for something other than getting in trouble.

"Are you even listening?"

"Of course I am! You'd dare accuse me of not paying attention to our latest elaborate plot?" Fred asked pretending to be outraged. George nodded in approval.

"At least you're good at acting, probably better than Percy. Maybe you should go into theater, image it, Fred. You could be a famous magician in the Muggle world, if the ministry doesn't arrest you first."

"That would be the fun part, George! We could do it together and do so well that they'd believe we really were just doing Muggle tricks! Come on, let's sneak off and see about buying a few Muggle magic tricks and learn how they work."

"Won't Mum notice we're gone?"

"She's too busy fawning over Percy to notice anything we do, as long as it doesn't explode anyway," Fred stated with a smile. George nodded slowly.

"Let's go then!" he agreed as they sneaked out of the house and into the Muggle village nearby.
