Part 2 bc why not
Obviously, reuniting Hornkus and Barty is going to take days, if not weeks, so everyone very slowly starts adjusting to this really fucking weird new reality
Binglefuck has taken a strange liking, if that word can even be applied, to Evan of all people, and Evan isn't sure whether to be concerned, flattered maybe, or if he's just going to be assaulted. There's a lot of strange suggestions, highly inappropriate jokes, and general Binglefuckiness. What did he mean by that comment? Are we sure we want this... guy(?) sleeping in our dorm? DON'T touch me there, thanks
While our Binglebuddy is causing one kind of problem, Regulus is having issues with Barty now. Because our purified, untraumatized Barty is acting a lot like... James Potter? Loud, extroverted, cocky as all get out, but also nice? Doesn't throw around gay jokes that range from semi-entertaining to just homophobic? What the fuck is going on... his best friend, the person he's had some very conflicting feelings towards, is now acting like his already unacceptable crush. What is he supposed to do with that, huh? How is he supposed to feel??
Speaking of James, he's not entirely sure what happened, but what he does know is that Crouch is actually kinda cool now. So they start hanging out, and by extension the rest of the Marauders let Barty hang out with them as well. Which is strange. And spells even more chaos for everyone else, because while Barty may no longer be angsty, he's still got a penchant for mischief that should not have been added to the Marauder hivemind...
Meanwhile, Pandora is losing both sleep and sanity trying to figure out how to put Bingle back into Barty, but also... Barty seems so happy now. And yes, Hornkus is a nightmare, but maybe, just maybe, it might be a lesser evil than making Barty take all that back
