Sometimes things don't turn out like you want them to, do they? I'm sure they'll figure something out.

The story was downbeat as befits 'Grapes' although there was a ray of hope at the end for a few of them.

Feeling rather sorry for the Misuse of Muggle Artifact department. They almost had it all!I can now see Arthur and Molly (and Ron) living on one of those floating garbage scows outside of New York City. Arthur happy as a clam sorting through stuff, Molly wringing her hands and Ron slugging a cold one back, Severus wishing he were there with him instead of having canaries in uncomfortable places...Thank you for sharing.
Response from Fairfield (Author of The Snapes of Wrath)
We all sympathize with the disapponted bureaucrats. Perhaps Molly will locate a high-class crowd of garage-sale enthusiasts for Arthur. The canaries are in cages, but the enlargement spell may create discrepencies that allow some to escape. What will they peck at?

Very clever :) I loved Arthur's enthusiasm for the move based on American technology! The OH is away until the weekend, but I shall take great pleasure in showing this to him then. He does magic and mentalism, and often complains that most modern magicians don't have the old rapport with their audiences and enough theatrical showmanship - can't wait to see what he thinks of The Great Snape-endo!

Thanks. I hope he enjoys it.
(Perhaps your other half knows the true story. Did the young David Copperfield win a contest by pulling an enormous number of alarm clocks out of a coat he was wearing?)

I think I agree with Severus' mild suspicion about pulling twenty canaries out of his cloak... I'm seeing it in my mind now, complete with scowl and contemptuous stare. :)A very nice drabble. I enjoyed it.

His nonchalance, indifference, even disdain of his routines would add dramatic effect.
Response from Chaoticclara (Reviewer)
Indeed. I think I'd be trapped somewhere between hilarity and terror. Snape does not invite being laughed at or even with.I'm still boggled by twenty. Would he pull them out in twenty different ways? Getting more and more annoyed in the process? Or one, big flourish? Ah, so many possibilities. I'd pay good money to see each of them.

I for one , would pay good money to see that stage show. 
Response from Fairfield (Author of The Snapes of Wrath)
Forced on stage, it would truly be the Snapes of Wrath. "And now, for the impecunious among you, I shall pull a doubloon out of the arse of the first volunteer."

Wait till you see the costume his two assistants design.
Response from Who (Reviewer)
Are they already designed? I am looking forward to them! And the canaries: would they be the common yellow, or the much rarer black canaries?

good job. but who's andy?
Response from Fairfield (Author of The Snapes of Wrath)
Glad you enjoyed it. Oops, Andy is Andromeda.
That was wonderful!
Response from Fairfield (Author of The Snapes of Wrath)
The story made some effort to capture the tone of "Grapes," except this story has an upbeat ending.

Interesting, humorous drabble--Having Severus submit to stage costumes creates quite a picture--HA!--I think Andy and Hermione will have a time of it convincing him to wear anything that has a dash of colour, pattern, or shine... or sparkle... Love Arthur's enthusiasm and expectation of American gadgets
Response from Fairfield (Author of The Snapes of Wrath)
At the end of the tale, everyone is picturing Arthur in a sea of gadgets and Severus delivering an anti-performance and scowling at the canaries.
