TW: smoking (cannabis and tobacco)

The four marauders laid on their dormitory floor, legs tangled, hair fanned out, spliffs twirled between their fingers.

James was smiling with his eyes closed. Peter was giggling at nothing in particular. Sirius was pressing sloppy kisses against Remus’ temple.

But the fourth marauder wasn’t feeling so peaceful.

“Lads,” he mumbled around his spliff, “Do you ever feel like this is it? Like these are our best days in life, and it’s all downhill from here?”

Peter hummed happily. “Yeah,” he agreed, “I do, Moony.”

Remus frowned. “Isn’t that kind of depressing?”

James shook his head vigorously. “I don’t think it’s depressing at all,” he declared, “We’ve had a good run together, us four, and Hogwarts will always be the home of our glory days. We’ll be leaving behind a great pranking legacy. If this really is the peak of our lives, it’s not a bad one. We’ve had loads of fun together, haven’t we?”

Sirius traced Remus’ cheekbone with one finger, eyes glassy yet bright. They lit up with affection when Remus looked at him. Remus sighed peacefully, feeling higher off Sirius’ love than he did off the cannabis.

“Yeah,” he murmured, “I suppose we have.”

is there anything new you're trying to learn these days?

miki wonders a little if there’s a right way to answer this question. how was she going to tell that she probably spent most of her time on netflix...and then on searching up random movies? “well...” she trails off a little, slightly nervous. “i’ve always been rather bad at cooking, so with how much i like to stay at home or in the dorms, i thought it might be great to start learning cooking.” she brightens a little at the thought, a sneaky little smile flickering across her very lips. “it wasn’t a very wonderful experience, i’d say. i burnt my bacon right on the very first try! it looked like a black part of the poor pan..” she trailed off, fidgeting in her seat. “but yeah, i’ve been trying hard to learn something new these days, so apart from learning how to cook better, i’ve also been listening a bit more to guitar music these days, and trying to pick up how to play the instrument too.” she spares a glance towards the managers behind the cameras a little nervously. that’s an okay answer? she blinked, nervously directing her smile once more, back to the camera.
