Molly would be damned of she didn’t do something fun for herself once in a while. She may have been a mom, a wife — and a housewife at that — but she was fun, quirky and one of a kind. She was multi-faceted and that’s what made her Molly Weasley. She grew up with two brothers who were always up to something and she had learned from them in her own Molly fashion. That hadn’t gone away with being a mom and a few years added to her life.
The plan was to meet James at the joke shop. She hadn’t been in quite some time and was excited. This time she wasn’t going to surprise anything for the boys, she was going for herself. She was the prankster. Normally she would have asked one, or both, of her brothers to join her but they were busy with work and their own lives and Molly didn’t want to wait. So instead she took advantage of the young boy who spent so much time with them growing up.
James may as well have been her younger brother with as much time as they spent together. They were both attached to Gideon and Fabian so it wasn’t unlikely that they became somewhat of a pair themselves. It would be nice to spend a day with him and she knew he would love a trip like this one.
When he finally showed up Molly pointed to her wrist. “Never on time, boy. Now let’s get to cracking!” She grabbed his arm and dragged him into the shop.
