James: I'm not a nerd!
Lily [skeptic]: Mm hmm..
An hour later
James, reading a Transfiguration book before bed: So, crinus muto is one of the hardest transfiguration spells to get correct— but the wand movements here are all messed up. Huh.
"Professor McGonagall!" Sirius yelled.
The whole class turned around in their seats to stare at him.
"What is it, Mr. Black?" Professor McGonagall asked, sounding weary.
"I have to be taken to the hospital wing immediately!" Sirius cried dramatically.
"May I ask why?" Professor McGonagall asked in the same tone as before.
"I have a paper cut!" Sirius whimpered. The class broke out in laughter.
"Mr. Black, I really don't think a paper cut requires you to go to the hospital wing."
"GOODBYE, CRUEL WORLD," Sirius said even more dramatically, kneeling on the floor.
Professor McGonagall had to try hard to hide her laughter. What a drama queen Sirius was. She tried to subdue him. "Mr. Black--"
"TELL JAMES'S PARENTS I LOVE THEM."
McGonagall: (about a biography assignment) It doesn't have to be somebody famous, just somebody real. Anybody you like and respect.
James: Anybody?
McGonagall: Anybody.
Sirius: Absolutely anybody?
McGonagall: Absolutely anybody.
James: I pick Sirius!
Sirius: I pick James!
Lily: You know, you walked right into that.
McGonagall: I did, didn't I?
Sirius: So, we still on for tonight?
Remus: You mean tonight, the night when I painfully turn into a werewolf and you try to stop me from killing others while trying to stay alive yourself?
Sirius: Yeah...
Remus: Obviously
only thirty days until james and lily’s untimely death halloween
One night under his invisibility cloak James Potter wandered, it was quite abnormal to find him alone like this. He had been feeling pretty down lately for one reason or another and decided once everyone was quiet in their beds to take a walk. He came across a room with a very large mirror and decided to play the game of having no reflection under the cloak. This always gave him a chuckle for whatever reason.
However when he stepped in front of the mirror he nearly jumped, for in the mirror was a picture of himself, a little older, and Lily Evans, also older, holding something wrapped in a blanket. Then a little hand reached out and James, in the mirror played with it, and he realized it was him and Lily, together, with a baby. He must have been watching the mirror for at least an hour when something dropped down beside him making him jump. Then worrying him even more he realized it was Lily and with huge eyes asked what she saw.
“A mirror silly, what are you doing up anyways?”
“oh, couldn’t sleep, but look if I move away…”
as he did Lily whispered oh so soft he couldn’t be sure that he actually heard it. After a few moments he asked her what she saw, she responded quickly, her cheeks flaming.
“Well I believe from reading it somewhere that its the mirror of Erised, which shows your deepest wants and desires, I see myself working as an auror for the ministry of course…”
James spun a story about the house cup.
They sat for quiet awhile staring, just far enough away that they could both see their images. However, what neither told the other was that their pictures were the same..
Sirius: You know, it's funny. Your ancestor helped create fundamental healing potions and your father invented a popular hair potion. What did you create?
James: The savior of the Wizarding World.
James: Why is your camera roll half Sirius and half chocolate?
Remus: I keep what I love.

James: Rules were made to be broken, Moony.
Remus: Nothing was made to be broken. That doesn't even make sense.
Sirius: Piñatas.
Lily: Glowsticks.
Sirius & Lily: *High five*
