James Potter | Former Gryffindor | Code Four Life Of The Party

[originclprcnkster]

When it came to Lily Evans, James experienced something he didn’t often have to deal with. An inability to form proper sentences. And because of how flustered he felt, how off footing he was around her, he tended to avoid speaking to her as often as possible. But somehow he was always running into her. Sirius made a joke once that it was like magnets, they attracted no matter how often you tried to keep them apart. And here she was again in his line of sight among a bunch of ministry idiots, celebrating something or another at a bar. He straightened his tie before he made his way over, a half smile on his face. “Evans. Fancy meeting you here.” He joked before he leaned on the bartop. “Can a lad buy you a drink?”

James was absolutely over the whole thing. Being a spy, or however moody had put it. He was tired of being in the midst of all these people and unable to really say how he felt. And so, he took to the bottle. Sitting at a bar right after work, he pressed his forehead against the cold wood when he heard the bar stool slide out beside him. Turning his head, he didn’t even acknowledge the presence. “Another gin. Please.”

True/False game. Make an assumption about me in my ask and I’ll tell you if its true or false. Go.

“Because I like living dangerously. I walk on the wild side. I laugh in the face of danger.” He joked as he looked over the files again. “It helps being on the inside even if I’m the most obvious inside.” He admitted before he looked over at Sirius. “I would have you know I am worth of a code ten because you and I are on the same exact level.” Groaning, he flopped back and ruffled his hair. “Feel like doing a tattoo now? I think a touch of ink would do nicely to relieve some stress.”

“You can invite me over. I’ll be sure to start dropping the inappropriate commentary after the cake. As long as I can have a quarter of it.” Wagging his brows, he leaned back against the wall and sighed. “And who’s this supposed suggestion? I give great couple advice. It’s why Remus and Sirius now live together.”

[originclprcnkster]

“Cheers, babe.” He teased as he took a swig of the potion. “Come on, Mar. I’d trust anything you put on my table. But if you told me it was something you made on a lark, I might be a little wary. You know.” He grinned before he took another sip of coffee. “What did you bring me all these goodies for anyway? Is it an event today? Did I forget something?”

it was supposed to be a simple trip, pop into gringotts and be on his way but of course that was never the case; regulus blamed himself for saying he wouldn’t be out long. none of the things he had planned on doing that day were going to happen anytime soon so he stopped for a drink instead, completely lost in his own mind as he sat at the bar and ordered himself a whiskey. he didn’t tend to make a habit of drinking so early in the day, but it was past lunch and in all honesty he couldn’t care less at the moment. he had already finished his first drink and was looking up to order a second when he realized the stool next to him had been occupied. he wasn’t sure if they had been there the entire time or just sat down as he looked over curiously.

[originclprcnkster]

James was always one for a drink. Or two. Or maybe five but today came with the impending sense of adventure as he saw Regulus sitting alone at the bar. Occupying the spot beside him, James looked him over. “Evenin’, Reg.” Leaning on the bar, he waved the barkeep over for a simple whiskey. “Lookin’ awfully morose this lovely night. Got something on your mind?”

send me “have you evers” and I can only reply with “yes” or “no”

James Potter did strut, once upon a time. But then he learned to simply stand tall in the face of everything. James Potter was the boy who became a man and a hero among wizards.

“Dinner with the rents, dear God.” He chuckled. “I mean don’t get me wrong I’d kill for mum’s pot roast right now but I can do without the ten million questions.” Digging through the cabinets, he found a coffee cup and settled for making his own. “No, mate, you’ll need that. They trying to set you up? Are you another victim of the arranged marriage ring?”

Lord save the pretty and irreplaceable head of Dorcas Meadowes was all James could think as he took his first java filled sip of saving grace. “Lord you have no idea how badly I needed this.” He murmured as he looked around for clothes. Pants first, shirt second. As he waved it out, he nodded to her. “I’m plenty responsible. Therein why I’m one of the last few left in the ministry. I’m good at being a good boy when the time calls for it.” A smile left his lips as he shrugged. “But, what brings you hear, darling?”

“James.  Jimmy.  Jim.  Jimmy jam.  Jim jamathon. Jiminy cricket.”  The names spilled stream of conscious style from his lips as he came through the door, dropping his bag and jacket on the floor in the corner and making his way to the sofa where James sat.  Rather than go around, he sat on the back and let gravity pull him down, draping his legs over James’ and propping his head up on the opposite arm.  “Honey, I’m home.  How was your day?”

[originclprcnkster]

As he heard Sirius’s bag hit the floor, he lifted his paperwork off his lap knowing this routine all too well. Once the other flopped into this lap, James’s grin spread widely. “Love of my life how my day has been dull, all because of a lack of you.” He teased, shaking his head. “On another note, my job has become all about chasing my own tail. Something you could appreciate.” He leaned over and grabbed a bottle of butterbeer. “Weed out anyone of status code 3 or higher from ministry walls.” Laughing, he hummed. “So I’ll get the can sooner or later.”

👀 what would be james favorite way of pissing of lucius ?

“By sending all the hottest gals I know to Malfoy manor to make Cissa spend her afternoons anywhere but on his arm.... If she’d be cool with it anyway.”

[originclprcnkster]

👀 what is the most embarrassing thing james has ever done?

“Shamefully, I have a tattoo that.... grows. Totally not worth the money spent on a bet that I knew I would freaking lose.”

[originclprcnkster]

👀 + "What kind of conversations would bore you to the point of falling asleep?"

“God anything that professor Binns says or anytime he is brought up is enough to bore me to tears.”

[originclprcnkster]

[originclprcnkster]
