Comments

[delincuente]

Oh, after. It would take a lot more than that to make him unattractive.

[She has to smile, thinking about him. The last time they spoke, he told her all about the war he was facing at home, and judging by James' age she's guessing he hasn't gotten there yet. She decides to stick to the shallower side of their relationship.]

And by "a lot more" I mean dumping me for with a little more in their britches.

[misterprongs]

[James winces to himself before sighing -- it's a massive sigh, one that he has expelled many a time.]

He does that.

[Somewhat apologetically. Sirius is his responsibility at least 87% of the time.]

He's a bit of a stupid git, but he means well.

[Usually. Sirius has had a shit life, okay. James is far too forgiving.]

[delincuente]

Yeah, I mean, we're fine. He was one of my best friends before I came here.

[And she misses him like hell, but she's not going to admit him.]

He and his boyfriend. Can't remember his name, though. Something equally flouncy and English.

[misterprongs]

[James opens his mouth to say 'well, glad he's managed to make at least one friend', but --

There's a blink, and a slight tilt of his head, and an open mouth that almost forms the word what, but for the love of everything, James looks a bit like a deer caught in some headlights.

-- for a moment, anyway. Does it matter? Nah, not really, but Sirius could've told him. >:c]

-- Sirius isn't flouncy.

[Come on, now.]

You should hear the rest of his family tree, they've got it worse.

[delincuente]

Hey, I've got an uncle named Kelbo. Can they top that?

[She loves his and Remus' names, actually, but of course she'd never admit that. She's being a dick right now.]

[misterprongs]

His mum's name is Walburga.

[With the utmost of straight-faces, solemn and pensive, almost as if poor Walburga Black cannot help her own fate as a certifiable loon.

-- there's a slight twitching of his lips, though. Prodding the beast that is Walburga Black is James' favorite hobby. And Sirius' too, incidentally.]

[delincuente]

[Okay. Okay, that's just plain fucking hilarious.]

Oh my god. Okay, that's a good one.

[misterprongs]

Isn't it just?

[Sirius' mum is an idiot and literally the worst person on the planet, so James always delights in making fun of the old hag.]

His family's old -- full of Arcturus' and Orions and Regulus'... my parents are a bit more sane.

[delincuente]

Oh man-

[She starts to laugh, but then hearing Regulus' name sparks a memory.]


Wait! Remus! That was his boyfriend's name. Can't believe I forgot that dorky little dude. He went to your school too, right?

[misterprongs]

[ -- alright, wait.

There's a brief pause -- a stare, really, and James' mouth drops open comically before he closes it to consider what he wants to say.]

Remus Lupin.

[It's said slowly -- honestly, how many other Remus' are there in the world??]

Bit peckish, looks like he could eat a few meals, gets a few weird scars every month or so?

[whAT]

[delincuente]

I don't know what "peckish" means, but the rest is spot on.

[She doesn't see anything odd about this at all. She figures James just has a lot of gay friends.]

[misterprongs]

Remus John Lupin and Sirius Orion Black were dating.

[HE JUST WANTS TO MAKE THIS PERFECTLY CLEAR okay this is a landmark discovery in James' existence.]

[delincuente]

Yyyyyep.

[She looks at him for a second, considering.]

... I'm guessing that wasn't a thing back home?

[misterprongs]

Remus doesn't talk to anyone.

[Well -- that's not necessarily true, Remus talks to them, but he's got a bit of a problem in his life, and that leads to an astonishing lack of romantic connections.]

And Sirius -- well, he's... himself -- long story short, no, it wasn't a thing.

[And if it was, James wasn't told, which is impossible, bc James knows everything about his bffs. >:c]

[delincuente]

Haha, well. Awkward. Best not to mention that when you get back home.

[misterprongs]

I don't care.

[James just has to say that, okay, he has literally zero problems, BUT -- ]

How did that even come about?

[delincuente]

I don't know. One day me and him were a thing, and the next Remus showed up and he was just gone. Maybe the constant mortal peril uncovered hidden feelings, or some crap like that.

[misterprongs]

Well, Sirius is an idiot.

[Let's just get that out of the way, because it's a fact of nature.]

But -- well. Hm.

[HE HAS TO PONDER THIS FOR A MOMENT.]

-- well, I guess anything's possible. Sounds like you dodged a proper bullet, anyway.

[delincuente]

[She has to laugh in agreement.]

Yeah, he was always a better friend than anything else.

[misterprongs]

That he is.

[It's said fondly, but with the air that the only one allowed to properly judge Sirius Black is, and forever will be, James Potter.]

-- he's never been here, has he?

[delincuente]

No, I haven't seen him in.... about a year? Back when I was living in Paradisa.
