“ ask NOT what you can do for the cards–no, don’t touch–but what the cards can do for you. ”

“ i’m calling it the ‘trelawney tarot power hour’. i’ll sit right here with my cards and lie in wait for the next auspicious aura to walk by – yours is a delectable shade of plum, dear! can i trouble you for a reading? ”

     now, james wasn’t usually the type of guy to believe what the younger ravenclaw claimed ( who honestly did, maybe aside from xenophilius lovegood? ), but he would be lying if he said he was never at least curious. and the first question that fell from his mouth was proof of that. “what’s plum mean?” before answering sybill’s next inquiry, however, the gryffindor already p l o p p e d himself down next to her -- making sure he was comfortable enough. after all, he had no idea what was in store. “give it your BEST shot, trelawney.”

“what —- that?” her eyes travel the the smoldering tree behind her, a look of false innocence playing on her features. “morgana’s tits — is that a FIRE?” no, she’s n o t going to admit it was her.

     trees don’t just spontaneously burst into flames. trees don’t decide one day that they’re going to l i g h t themselves ablaze for a good show. even at hogwarts, where things were far from any means of normalcy, that much he knew. and as newly appointed head boy, james also knew he should’ve cared more. although considering it was just a lone tree, safe distance away from anything ( anyone ) so no r e a l damage could be managed, the messy haired boy seemed underwhelmed about it — YET that didn’t stop james from opening his mouth ( as usual ). “meadowes – i KNOW you have that thing for f i r e.” how could he not? it wasn’t necessarily a secret his fellow gryffndor kept hidden. “but was it you?” it was probably, whether james wanted to admit it aloud or not. either way, saying he won’t do much about it was a safe bet to make. maybe he was a s u c k e r for a cute face, maybe because he knew there was worse to do ( personal experience, nonetheless — james potter was not a saint, by any means ).

Though it felt wrong not to strike back with a hopefully smart comment, she knew the boy was right — partially, at least. As strange as it was for her to admit it, Lily had noticed the slightest change in James’ demeanor over the course of the last couple of months. The fact that he was no longer going around Hogwarts messing with students and being an all around p r a t simply for the fun of it certainly took her by surprise — and perhaps Lily may have found herself no longer dreading the time they’d have to spend together being Head Boy and Head Girl, though she would never acknowledge it out loud. Choosing not to stroke James’ already inflated ego, Lily settled for a simple reply of ❝ There’s always room for improvement, ❞ pointed with a shrug of her shoulders.

Her amusement is unmasked, head tilting ever so slightly as she listens to James’ words with a shy grin. ❝ You poor thing, I can only imagine how tough it must be for you to be away from your best mates for more than five minutes, ❞ the redhead said, voice overflowing with sarcasm, ❝ However, I would much appreciate if you actually focused on your ‘official Head Boy duties’ and started coming up with useful suggestions for once. ❞

     “It’s definitely a sacrifice, but it’s one I’m willing to make to spend time with you — Oi! You’re b r e a k i n g my heart here, Evans,” No she wasn’t. Not really. James always had thicker skin ( even if he chose to ignore that and act upon impulses, most of the time ); brushing off comments directed at him – just him. If it was anyone he cared about, well, he wouldn’t be so dismissive. And besides, banter with Lily was a gift that kept on giving, as s t r a n g e as it sounded. What can he say? He likes them with attitude. “I always come up with useful suggestions. Or at least good ones. Like this: come to the kitchens with me?”

     It was out-of-the-blue, perhaps, but it was an excuse to spend more time with his favorite redhead Lily ( because really, being the ‘head couple’ * not even a couple, although James as certainly wished for it – with nothing scandalous going on? They were bound to part ways and it was far too soon, in his opinion ). “’Course you don’t have to, but it’d be nice.”

Ignoring James’ failed attempt to give her a nickname with an ever so elegant raise of an eyebrow, Lily’s lips curved into a tiny smirk before she spoke. ❝ Seven years now, you’d think someone would be able to knock some sense into your foolish head. Aren’t you supposed to go to your dear marauders for the execution of idiotic ideas? ❞

     “Foolish head? Don’t you mean handsome?” Grinning at his own words, he eventually shook his head. “Okay, I’ll admit, some plans could’ve been more… thought out, but in my defense, I’ve gotten better.” A pause, “With behavior, not how clever my pranks are. Well, actually both. I still amaze myself — that’s beside the point.” On the point, however, people have to give him some credit. He has for the most part matured progressively as those seven years in question flew by. James was always arrogant, boastful, and proud; it was how he was raised, being pampered all the time. Of course, his parents still did an excellent job with him – he was, and will always be, grateful of them ( even if sometimes it didn’t appear that way to an outsider ). But overall aside from incidents of him hexing passing students, because he could, James was never really a bad guy. Just an arsehole with a heart of gold.

     Once he heard Lily’s mention of the Marauders, however, his grin only grew. Those boys meant everything to him; how far they’ve all come, where they will go — friendships to take to the grave. “See, as much as I love the lads, I told myself while on ‘official head boy duty’, I won’t run like a deer to find them. Harder than it sounds, but I think I can manage.”

❝ Or perhaps we could do anything else, because that sounds incredibly stupid. ❞

     “C’mon, Tiger Lily,” A nickname all in good fun ( read: a stupid mannerism that James will never truly grow out of ), “Said that about e v e r y t h i n g so far — seven years now, you’d think you would let me have this once.”
