antlers and all...

James Potter, at your service. Mates call me Prongs -- Gryffindor til I die, and a marauder longer still. If you ask nice, maybe I'll show you a few tricks on my broom. Er, my actual broom, like.. like the one I fly on. Merlin, don't tell Lily I said anything... indie James Potter sideblog mobile banner credit

❝ Nonsense! What kind of bird doesn’t want to be seen with a wanker in soggy trousers? ❞ Sirius laughed, watching as Prongs looked out of the water with a odd sort of longing. Shifting himself in the boat, he placed his arm around his best mate’s shoulders. ❝ I will not have you look so upset from having to leave the love of your life. Give a BIG FAT SLOPPY KISS to the squid from me. ❞ With a nudge of his elbow and shoulder, he forced James to go over with a snort from his own lips.

He returns his gaze to his best friend at the INSULT.   ❝ Oi, I’m not a WANKER, you ---. ❞          But whatever he was about to throw back is LOST as he goes overboard. James is nothing but FLAILING LIMBS as he sinks into the lake -- slowly filling with the lake water that he can’t help but swallow in his surprise. Lake water and an overwhelming sense of BETRAYAL.        To his further surprise, he is enveloped by more than just his feelings as a long tentacle shoots up from the depths, lifting him above the surface not a full minute after he’d taken the dive. He’s spluttering as he chokes on everything he’d drank in, BUT, glasses happily hang ( precarious as they are ) from his ear and he sends a squinty-eyed GLARE at Sirius. The JERK.

❝ She’s already said yes to you mate, after seven years of knowing us, I’m sure she’d expect us to go for a swim in the Black Lake. A farewell swim with the Giant Squid to show there’s no hard feelings. ❞ 

[pottedprongs]

       ❝ Just because she’s agreed to DATE me doesn’t mean she’s agreed to be seen in PUBLIC beside the bloke in soggy trousers. ❞   But that’s him looking WISTFUL at the lake as they skip smoothly across. Seven years worth of lost shoes to keep the Giant Squid happy -- and Padfoot does have a point. They never DID in get a farewell swim...

[suspicious snape voice] “you’re saying your friend named remus lupin definitely isn’t a werewolf”

[shocked, disappointed james potter voice] “remus lupin, a werewolf?? is it because he’s named after a guy raised by a wolf? is it because his surname literally means wolf? well. you’re wrong. his middle name is john, there’s no way he could be a werewolf.”

"Depends how close you let me get." He smirked, leaning his face in as he took them from her. Sure, he was just asking to get hexed, but how could he honestly pass up the opportunity? "I’d also like to add that I’m offended. My glasses are the height of cool, thanks.” Not lame. Not in the least.

[fierylilyevans-deactivated20140]

"I’m basically a fuzzy figure with red hair." She replied. Lily put her hand on his face and pushed him back. "I don’t think so, Potter." She smirked. "Well, they look good on you. Not on me." Did she really just say that?

[pottedprongs]

"How dare you think so, you're the fuzzy figure with red hair. And don't you think any less." He laughed as she pushed him away, sliding his glasses back onto his face. Or, he would've, if he hadn't paused with them sitting on the tip of his nose at her comment. He couldn't be certain, but his heart might've stopped. "--You think they look good on me?" 

[pottedprongs]

"And yet, even without them, I’m still entranced by your beauty, Evans." James held his hand out after a moment. "That said, I really do need them to see."

[fierylilyevans-deactivated20140]

"Yeah right. I highly doubt you can even see me without these on." She told him, taking them off and giving them back. "I looked lame in them anyway."

"Merlin, I can’t believe this is how bad your eyesight is." Lily, it isn’t nice to take Potter’s glasses without permission.

"And yet, even without them, I'm still entranced by your beauty, Evans." James held his hand out after a moment. "That said, I really do need them to see."

Even though his mouth hangs open, a line of drool starts to trail down the side of his chin, and his glasses sit askew, he somehow manages to only look adorable.

After a few minutes his head starts to slide until it rests against Lily’s shoulder.

Remus flashes her a knowing look, and once he’s turned back to the window, she lets herself smile, just for herself.
