(Okay, we got the new post. Should we do a Timeskip and then we can make the drama happen?)
(Yeah, sounds good :). Ooo, can I give Nessa a crush on Remus at some point?)
(Yes! Obvi he’d never betray Sirius his beloved though)
(Real)
(Should we do it where she’s looking for Sirius, but the dorm is empty except for Remus and that’s when she realised she has a crush on him?)
(Yeah, sounds good :))
(Kewl)
*Remus was exhausted from setting up a prank last night that he’d opted to stay behind at the dorms to sleep instead of going to breakfast with the others, but he was woken up by someone walking into the dorms*
"Siri?" *Came Vanessa's voice as she came in, pushing aside the curtains around her twin's bed to see if he was there or not.
"Sorry, Sirius went to breakfast already, can I help you with anything?" Remus responded, pushing the curtains open around his bed so he was visible. His hair was messy and his eyes were bleary with sleep*
*She jumped a little, pausing when she saw how he looked. 'Damn, he's cute'. She thought to herself.* "I, uh... I was just coming to get his curl cream. Mine ran out."
"It’s in the bathroom, I’ll get it for you. The floor is soaking and you’ll get your feet wet. I don’t know what Peter does in there but there’s always water on the floor afterward." *Remus said, giving a small chuckle. He got up, stretching his arms above his head, causing his shirt to ride up and expose his muscular torso*
*Vanessa has to look away, very glad vampires can't blush.*
*He went into the bathroom and came out with the product, tossing it to her lazily, but it didn’t make it very far and stopped mid-way between them* "Well…I thought I was better at throwing then that." He said, snorting at his own failure
(Why am I thinking CEO/Y/n? LMAO)
(Omg, yes, I see it! Ngl, loving nonchalant Remus)
"Thank you." *She smiled a little, the tip of one of her fangs showing, which was kinda cute, as she picked up the stuff.*
"You should head to breakfast soon, you might miss it." *He reminded, already getting back into bed*
(Ooc: Can we pretend characters are there? Like, pretend we’re talking to Sirius or something without the person actually responding)
(Ooc: sure :))
"Aren't you going to get some too?"
"Too tired. We spent the night brainstorming pranks. I don’t think the others have ever used their brains that much." Remus deadpanned.
She laughed a little. "Care to share the ideas?" She teased
"Well, if you head to breakfast now, you might be in time to see the prank we set up." He smiled, winking at her.
"Okay..." she laughed a little, pocketing the curl cream and heading down to the great hall
There, the marauders were waiting, eyeing the Slytherin table with matching smirks. "Little sis, just in time." Sirius grinned, patting the empty spot next to him.
She rolled her eyes. "Siri, I'm only a few hours younger-" the girl said as she sat next to him
"Still younger." He reminded.
"Okay Pads, ready?" James asked excitedly.
"Yep, in Three, two one-" Suddenly, all the Slytherin’s robes turned a bright pink, glitter staining their robes.
Everyone around them burst out laughing, pointing at their sparkly robes.
"Sirius, why -?"
"Why Not, dear sister." Sirius laughed.
"Um, Sirius-"
"Not now Pete." Sirius said dismissively. He let out a yelp when someone behind him yanked his hair.
it was Regulus, who somehow still looked threatening even in pink sparkly robes. He looked murderous.
"Sirius, what the fuck?!" He snapped in his posher accent.
"Run!" James urged.
The two sprinted out the great hall, followed by Regulus and his friends.
Peter just sat there with a calm expression when Remus finally came down to breakfast.
Nessa laughed a little, oblivious to Remus
"Hello again Nessa, where’re the others?" Remus asked, piling his plate with food. It shocked everyone how much Remus could eat in one sitting.
She jumped a little, surprised by him just appearing. "They, uh, they ran off. Reg was pissed."
"Hmm, makes sense. I did warn them." He said, now digging into the mountain of food on his plate.
Then, James, Sirius, Reg and his friends finally came back. Sirius immediately came over and sat down on Remus’ lap. "He used a stinging jink on me! Can you believe it, Re!? That smug pink bastard." Sirius grumbled.
"You knew he would, Pads." James laughed, shoving him playfully so he fell off of Remus and into his sister, who yelped as she was flattened onto her back.
"Ow, ow, you're crushing me chest -" she half laughed.
Remus helped both the twins up, "My hero." Sirius said, flashing Remus a cheesy smile and giving him a peck on the cheek.
Remus blushed a little and returned to his food, quickly demolishing it. "I will never understand how you eat that much that fast. You’re more of a dog than me." Sirius teased.
Nessa smacked her twin's arm to shut him up. "Siri, be nice." She scolded, as if she were the older sibling, because they do that a lot.
(Ooc: experience? Why, yes, I know her!)
"He’s fine with it, Aren’t you Re?" Sirius said, ruffling Remus’ hair. Remus just shrugged, mouth full of toast (Moony Toast).
"See? He doesn’t mind. He’s a big ol’ softie." Sirius grinned.
"And good at keeping your dear brother here in line." James teased, nudging the Lupin boy.
(Ooc: since this chain is just you and me, do you want to move to the dms?)
"There is no keeping him in line. He’s not straight. In any way." Remus deadpanned.
"Facts." Sirius said solemnly.
(Ooc: is it okay if not?)
(Ooc: yeah, that's fine :))
Vanessa laughed a little
"Here here!" James raised his pumpkin juice like a toast and then took a big gulp, like he was chugging a beer.
The others egged him on, laughing as he finished the juice, spluttering a little
"They do stupider things. James once chugged a mug of melted butter." Remus smirked, nudging Vanessa.
She laughed a little, nudging him back. "I know, I watched him do it."
"Oh yeah. That party was fun." Remus smiled.
"Yeah because it was the first time you and Sirius snogged." James interrupted.
"Sod off!" Remus said, flipping him off.
Vanessa shifted slightly closer to Remus, he didn’t notice but Sirius did. And since he was a zesty, jealous drama queen he immediately recognised the fact she…liked Remus.
(Ooc: Lemme know if you like this plot point or not, we can just ignore it)
(Ooc: all good, it works :))
It was a subtle motion, one only he could notice, really.
"Nessa, can I speak with you privately?" Sirius asked, trying to look calm. He had to find out if it was all in his head.
Looking at her twin, she hesitated, seeing how he was hiding how he felt
"It’s important." Sirius urged.
Nessa took note of his tone and followed him
When they were outside the hall, Sirius stopped and turned to Vanessa. "Okay. Vanessa, I won’t be mad, I just need you to tell me something." Sirius began, his voice slightly shaky.
The girl frowned, worried. "Okay... you're worrying me a bit, Siri."
"Do you like Remus? As in…like like." Sirius blurted out, his words stringing together slightly.
That stunned her. "Siri, why would I like your boyfriend like that?"
"Don’t lie to me, Ness. I can tell." Sirius said, his stare hardening.
She held his gaze, her reddish eyes not as intimidating as when they had been striking grey. "I'm not lying."
Sirius sighed, shoulders sagging. "Okay, I believe you." He relented. "Let’s go back in."
He took her wrist, pushing open the doors to the great hall again with much more dramatics than needed.
A couple of people turned, just to be nosy, and Sirius noticed just out of the corner of his eyes how his twin's posture straightened more somehow as they got closer to James and Remus.
Sirius sat next to Remus, nuzzling into his side like a needy puppy
"Love you, Remington." He smiled at the taller boy
"Love you, Siri." Remus replied, giving Sirius a goofy grin.
The two did some very serious cuddling
James and Peter kept gagging, ruining the moment.
Since they had hooked up a couple times and she now felt a sense of hurt, seeing her twin cuddling with Remus, Nessa turned and kissed James, mainly to annoy Sirius and, even if she didn't know it, get Remus' attention
Remus barely batted an eye, chuckling as Sirius glared daggers at James. "Sibling-fucker." He muttered bitterly.
"What can I say, Nessa-Belle is the pretty one." James teased, kissing the girl's cheek to make her blush
He began gagging like James had a few minutes ago, "Ew! Moony! Star down! Star down!" He said dramatically, clutching his throat as if he were struggling to breathe.
"Don’t worry Siri, maybe if your other two siblings were less hot I would’ve gone for you." James said with a goofy smirk. Remus’ eyes snapped to James, glaring at him. "You’d be six feet under right now if you did that." Remus muttered
(Ooc: he’s just a possessive little wolfy guy)
(Ooc: just a tad)
Peter was just... there. Nessa laughed at her brother. "Moony, you can do so much better than him." She teased, brushing her hair over her shoulder without realising, before letting James kiss her again because it was fucking with Sirius.
"How could he when I’m the hottest?" Sirius grinned, "I hate to fuel your ego, but I have to agree." Remus said with a small smile. Sirius pulled Remus down and kissed him, flipping James and Nessa off too.
This was kinda just becoming a 'who can make out more to piss off the other' contest. Petty, but perfectly normal for the twins
The two couples were interrupted when Breakfast ended, everyone scurrying to get to class and filing out the hall.
James and Sirius both had Transfiguration, Peter had Divination, Nessa had D.A.D.A., and Remus had... * drum roll*
"Looks like I have…oh god damn it, potions." Remus grumbled. "And where is the drum roll coming from?"
(Ooc: touche)
"Hey, you chose it." Nessa teased, nudging him
(Ooc: wow.)
"Well how do I make it stop?" Remus asked, covering his ears to drown it out.
She tilted her head, trying to hear the drum roll. Is Remus going crazy? Looks like it, it was a figurative drum roll
"It’s gone now." Remus continued on his way down to the dungeons, where Professor Slughorn was greedily eating crystallised pineapple from some suck-up Slytherin.
(Ooc: you should’ve specified it was figurative)
(Ooc: sorry)
No one really knew who the kid was, just that they knew how to get on Slughorn's good side
"Today class, we will be practicing drought of the living death. Partner up." Slughorn’s booming voice announced.
People immediately started pairing up with others they were friends or at least friendly with
Remus partnered with Marlene, and quickly regretted it when he remembered how bad she was at potions, especially waiting for things to brew.
"Ugh, this is taking too long-" Marlene complained halfway through, going to pull out her wand
"No, Marls. Just wait, the last time you tried to speed up the brewing the potion exploded everywhere." Remus reminded, grabbing her wrist to restrain her.
She groaned, pulling her wrist away and tucking her wand into her robes. "Fine. But the waiting is boring, Remus."
"I know, but do you want to fail potions? I certainly don’t." He responded, gazing down at e bubbling cauldron. He began stirring, twice clockwise once counterclockwise.
Marlene pouted, folding her arms like a child
"Stop pouting, you aren’t Sirius." He smirked while he measured out the moonstone.
Of course, Marlene didn't hesitate. "If I was, you'd have your tongue down my throat instead of making the potion."
Remus choked on air (some students looked over to see if he was alright) and turned red. "Marls! Shut it!" He snapped, not looking up from the potion.
She cackled, oblivious to other people looking
Remus then looked at her and smirked, "Y’know, if you were Sirius I’d be doing a lot more than just shoving my tongue down your throat." He whispered to her.
Marlene froze for all of two seconds, then sprung back just as quietly. "He's just the guy version of Nessie and you know it." She smirked, playfully pushing him a little. Very few people were able to call Vanessa 'Nessie', and Marlene was one of them, lucky for her.
"Or is Nessie the woman version of Sirius?" Remus countered.
She shrugged. "Either way, they're near enough the same person to a certain degree, just one has a good ass, and the other has great tits."
"Which has the good ass and which has the great tits?" Remus asked, barely holding back laughter
Marlene raised an eyebrow. "Well, Nessie has both, and last I checked, Sirius doesn't have tits."
"Why were you checking if Sirius had tits in the first place? And Sirius has a good ass." Remus asked, barely stifling his giggled
She rolled her eyes, shoving his arm. "Sirius has the biological make up of a man, there for has no tits. Logic."
"Men have tits, just woman have bigger ones. We call them pecs most the time." Remus countered.
Slughorn stalked over, raising an unimpressed brow at them "And what are you two talking about?" He asked.
"We were talking about Sirius and Vanessa’s bodies, then arguing over men having tits." Marlene said casually as she cut up some ingredients.
(Ooc: I know you were doing Marlene but I really wanted to do her response, that okay?)
(Ooc: yeah, of course, that's fine :))
A few of the other students laughed, mainly other Griffindors, while some students like those from Ravenclaw and the more stuck-up Slytherins rolled their eyes.
"And is that really a classroom discussion, Miss. McKinnon? Mr. Lupin?" Slughorn asked disapprovingly
"I mean, what else is there to talk about?" Remus asked.
(Ooc: Slughorn do be havin an ass and tits, I’d tap that)
(Ooc: damn -)
The teacher raised an eyebrow
(Ooc: @wolfinsheepsclothing2 are you okay? Genuinely asking, just to make sure)
(Ooc: yeah, I’m fine)
"I’m hardly likely to have an intellectual conversation about potions with Marlene." Remus muttered, wincing when Marlene elbowed him.
(Ooc: okay, just wanted to check in)
"Git." She mumbled under her breath, flipping him off once Slughorn moved on to a different pair
"Am I wrong?" Remus sassed, raising an eyebrow at her.
"No..." Marlene grumbled.
"Exactly, now we need to add the puss from a blast-ended skrewt." Remus said, scrunching his face up when he looked at the foul-smelling, yellow-tinted puss.
"Yeah, you can do that part." She patted his shoulder teasingly. "I did my nails last night."
"I don’t want to touch that, it’s disgusting." Remus groaned.
"You’ve literally had your tongue in Sirius’ ass, where people shit from, and you think puss is the most disgusting thing?" She grinned
(Ooc: lemme know if that reply was too sexual or if you wanted to reply, I just really wanted to try the idea)
(Ooc: dw, as long as your comfortable with it, I don't mind what gets written and, if you wanted to reply, that's fine)
(Ooc: Although, tbh, I did always wonder how people were able to do stuff 'round the back)
To be fair to her Marlene had a quick wit when it came to shutting people up, although, it was usually to do with Sirius when she was with Remus.
Remus turned bright red, putting his head down and dumping the puss into the pale pink potion. "Shove it," he muttered.
The pus absolutely reeked, but handling it was better than Marlene teasing him.
"Can I ask a question?" She said
Yes, and boom. That’s your question. No more now," he smirked at her annoyed expression.
She gave him a 'seriously' look. "Smart arse. Fine, can I ask two more questions?"
"Of course you can, now what’s your second question?" he gave her a smug grin, his attention divided between the potion and Marlene.
She nodded. "If Sirius wasn't an option, would you be interested in someone else?"
"I mean…probably not but there would be a small chance I might’ve fallen for Regulus. They look alike and we have things in common. Don’t tell Sirius, he’d freak out," he answered, then grabbed Marlene and pulled her down under the desk when their potion began bubbling, and eventually exploded onto the wall and the students behind us.
The students shrieked as they were covered in the potion, others quickly scrambling to get away. The two Gryffindors had to take a moment to process what had just happened, but Marlene still bounced back into her usual 'interrogation'.
"You wouldn't have wanted to be with Nessie?"
(Heya, @wolfinsheepsclothing2 , wasn't sure if my reblog worked. Hope you're okay)
(Ooc: I’m really sorry, whenever I went onto your blog it glitched and then I just forgot about it)
"I mean, I’m gay as fuck, Marls. Sure, Sirius was my gay awakening, but doesn’t mean I’m specifically gay because of him," Remus responded, slowly standing back up and trying to hold back laughter when he realised Evan and Barty were the students behind them, and they were covered in potion. Although Barty was being disgusting by attempting to lick it off Evan.
(No need to apologise, just wanted to make sure everything was okay. Sorry for reblogging with the wrong account)
No one really questioned the two Slytherins, because that's just how they were. Evan just didn't seem phased, continuing to work while his boyfriend licked him like a cat. Marlene raised an eyebrow at Remus. "So, you've never considered her as a romantic partner? Even before you knew you're gay?"
"Nope. Not at all. I’ve never liked girls, never will," he responded.
"Oi, Crouch, keep eating that potion and you might die," Remus then said, turning to look at Barty.
"I’ll die happy then," the brunette grinned, sticking out his tongue once more and showing off his piercing
Even took the chance to kiss his boyfriend
Marlene and Remus gagged, while Barty and Evan practically devoured each other. They didn’t even stop when Slughorn approached them.
They really didn't care who sure. It's a surprise they aren't... playing with each other's pogo sticks, to mock Modern Family, during meals
Slughorn cleared his throat awkwardly, and finally they pulled away, not looking the slightest bit ashamed. Slughorn sent Marlene, Remus, Evan and Barty out to be checked by Madam Pomfrey.
They weren't the only ones there. Somehow, Sirius had gotten himself hurt in flipping Transfiguration
"Re! Rem! Moonbeam!" Sirius called when he saw Remus walk into the hospital wing. He looked like a happy puppy. Remus smiled, sitting down next to him.
The others stepped aside so the couple could have a moment. "What happened to you?" Sirius asked, fussing over Remus
"Nothing, baby. Mine and Marls potion exploded, it mostly hit those two though," Remus said reassuringly, a fond smile on his face as he gestured to Barty and Evan.
The pair of them were making out again while Madame Pomfrey tried to seperate them enough to treat them both
Madam Pomfrey eventually gave up, deeming both of them fine to return to class, then turned back to Remus, Marlene and Sirius.
Remus and Marlene were her focus. "What were you both doing?" She asked in that no-nonsense tone of hers
At the same time, both students opened their mouths and blurted out an answer.
"Wondering if Remus would date someone beside Sirius,"
"We made a potion but it went wrong and exploded,"
(Ooc: you can tell who said what:))
(Ooc: yup.)
Madame Pomfrey was stunned by the outburst, and Sirius latched onto the sentence with his own name, looking confused.
"I’m sorry, WHAT!?" Sirius exclaimed, pointing at Remus accusingly. "Babe, shh. You know I love you, no need to freak out," Remus said, putting a hand on Sirius’ shoulder.
"He said he might like Reggie if you weren’t a possibility," Marlene smirked, enjoying the drama.
Girl loves to shit stir.
"Regulus, really, Moony?" Sirius pouted, not liking the idea of his boyfriend being with his little brother, very unaware that his own twin had a budding crush on the werewolf.
"I mean…we have things in common. But you’re my only love," Remus said sheepishly, trying not to blush at Sirius looking so adorable.
Then, Nessa, James and Peter came in. Madam Pomfrey only huffed, but didn’t say anything about so many people being in there. Then Regulus followed close behind, pulling Evan and Barty apart.
Nessa first fussed over her twin, speaking in rapid French, glancing at Remus in worry too. James and Peter were asking a million questions, and our dear Rosekiller were both pouting childishly as Regulus scolded them.
"But Reg-" Barty began, but was cut off. "No buts. No one wants to see you two make out," Regulus said, glaring at them.
Meanwhile, Sirius had moved to sit on Remus’ lap, making Nessa feel a bit jealous.
In retaliation, she kissed James, not realising why
Sirius just gagged and they could hear Regulus groan in annoyance. Remus looked confused, Vanessa had never struck him as the type to do public displays of affection like this.
Sirius then got up and grabbed James, pulling them apart.
The closest she ever got to public was when there were lots of people, so it would be unnoticed unless you were paying attention.
The two stumbled apart, a little out of breath
"Prongs, we’ve talked about this. No snogging my siblings in front of me," Sirius said and James gave him a sheepish smile.
"Well…you and Moony do unspeakable things in the dorm without silencing charms," James argued back.
"That’s different, we just forget sometimes," Sirius defended, cheeks flushing red.
Both of his siblings shared a look. "And don't get me started on when you're in your room at home, dear brother." Regulus remarked.
"Overprotective seems like a good word for the situation." Nessa added
"I am not overprotective. I just don’t like seeing my siblings snogging," Sirius huffed, pouting.
"Still not your brother by-" James began
"Shush Jamie, you are my brother by blood, you are snogging OUR sister," Sirius interrupted.
Nessa and James both shared a look, shrugged, and kissed again to piss off Sirius.
"At least they aren't like mother and father, making our family tree a ladder." Regulus shuddered
"I’d rather more incest than watching my best friend snog OUR little sister," Sirius huffed, then turned to Remus, who’d been watching the situation unfold, amused despite himself. "Moony! Can’t you do a spell to break them apart?" The black haired boy whined, looking up at the werewolf with puppy-dog eyes.
Remus took out his wand, gave it a small wave and Vanessa and James were separated once more, this time unable to move close to each other, as if an invisible wall was keeping the two apart.
The others laughed at the brief shock on their faces.
"Hey, you're only two hours older!" Vanessa defended, crossing her arms with a pout that made her look kinda cute.
"And that was the best 110 minutes of my life," Sirius said, a smirk on his face.
"Siri, sweetheart, two hours is 120 minutes," Remus said gently, a grin on his face as he struggled to disguise his snickers, whereas James began to openly laugh at the now blushing and embarrassed Sirius.
Regulus came and poked his brother. "A very good impression of your tie, dear brother, I'd say."
"Oh shush Reggie, and stop being posh," Sirius snapped, burrowing into Remus’ side.
Regulus had always had better manners
"Relax, Siri," Remus huffed. He then undid the spell, allowing James and Vanessa to get close again.
"I'll just make sure I sh*g her on your bed this time." James said with a smirk and an arm around Vanessa while she buried her face in her hands, glad vamps couldn't blush
"No, on Remus’. Bet Siri uses his bed more than his own," Regulus added, a grin on his face.
Sirius then turned into his animagus form and began biting James’ ankles.
James yelped and stumbled back, transforming into a stag which proceeded to fall over
The two animals tussled on the ground, Padfoot snarling at the stag. Vanessa, Remus and Regulus just watched, doing nothing to stop the fighting.
(OOC: I’m heading to bed now)
(Ooc: fair enough. Hope you sleep/slept well!)
It was kinda funny to watch, because of Prongs' weird deer noises and the fact that deers has nothing other than their antlers to fight with.
"Should we stop them?" Remus asked, a smirk on his face. "Nah, let them fight it out," Regulus replied.
James turned back into his normal self and grabbing some random, stick+like object and threw it, which Sirius immediately chased.
Both of his siblings immediately burst out laughing at their brother-but-not-brother-because-he's-a-dog acting like, well, a dog
Sirius then turned back, dropping the object out his mouth. He was scowling, his glare fixated on the three (James, Reg and Vanessa).
Nessa couldn't help but laugh at her twin
"Well, it’s clear which one of you got the brains," Remus quipped, smirking at the look on Sirius’ face.
he opened his arms, gesturing for Sirius to come closer, "Aww, baby, don’t pout, you know I love you regardless," he said, chuckling to himself. Vanessa felt the familiar, bitter edge of jealousy creep up on her as she watched the scene.
Her usual response to that feeling was to make out with James to piss off Sirius, but he was still in deer-mode, so she just hugged her arms around herself. Sirius gave a dog pout before coming over to Remus
"Good boy," Remus praised, laughing softly at the way Sirius’ fluffy face lit up at his words, immediately jumping up and pawing at him.
Sirius was intently licking his face now
He then transformed back, as did James. Sirius managed to get one final hit on James before hiding behind Remus.
James shrugged, choosing not to hit back, instead kissing Regulus quickly, then leaving a very obvious mark on Nessa's neck, which technically shouldn't be possible, because girl is still a vampire.
Sirius Grumbled, still scowling as he dragged Remus away, practically stomping his feet like a petulant child. Remus smiled, looking at Sirius with adoration.
He was oblivious that Sirius wasn't the only Black who liked him
(should we do a time skip to the next day? And, I know it’s quite late for this but I only just re-read your into post, but aren’t you and James broken up? Like, it said you were just friends. Do whatever you want with your character but I was just confused on that)
Remus hung back after Sirius let go of his hand, waiting for Vanessa, and smiled when he saw her. He’d been meaning to talk to her about transfiguration homework, as he’d been absent recently.
(Oh, shit, have I not changed that back? Tbh, I put the broken up bit for an older rp chain where Regulus and James were already an established relationship. I tend to make the relationship the reason she gets turned in the first place. But, yeah, timeskip is fine.)
Sirius did hesitate a moment, but left with his brother and James, who was playfully teasing him. "Catch upumoater, Nessa-Belle!" One of the, called. The girl didn't notice which.
"Everything okay, Rem?" She asked, tilting her head a little.
"Yeah, I just wanted to ask about the transfiguration assignment. It’s hopeless asking James or Sirius," he said, running a hand through his hair.
(Okay, my idea for time skip it was very early morning and Vanessa couldn’t sleep bc she’s a vampire and sees Remus still up in the common room alone)
(Sounds good :))
She laughed a little. "Well, I can definitely help you there."
(Timeskip)
*Remus continued reading on the sofa, unaware of Vanessa’ presence. He already knew he’d feel like shit later, but he was nearly finished.*
