I’m kind of on a roll today. Lily and James Potter, for potterweekprompts perfect pair!! Also because somebody requested I draw them, hope you like it!
James Potter is very deer to me
Sirius Black at some point probably (via quiriusblack)
James: Listen to what happened to this witch.
James: ‘To extinguish the fire, she bombarded herself with hail.’
James: And died.
Sirius: But, was she still on fire?
James: She’s dead.
Sirius: Yeah, but was she still on fire?
James:
James: No
Sirius: Problem solved.
James:
Sirius: Whilst another problem arose, the initial issue was resolved.
James: This, this is why people have concerns about ‘The Noble and Most Ancient House of Black’.
Remus: Dumbledore is expecting you in his office in the morning to explain why you hexed Snape.
James: Well, I’m sure I’ll have a very good answer by then.
“Muggles are so weird,” Sirius stated, looking around the room packed with people scowling at each other.
“Why’s that?” Lily asked, stepping in forward in the security line.
“I mean, they travel by packing themselves into a large metal blob that gets flung into the air. It’s not natural.”
Lily raised an eyebrow, “And traveling by broom or through the fireplace is?”
“Yes,” Sirius answered back immediately, pleased when James said yes with him.
Rolling her eyes, Lily chose to ignore them and instead pointed forward.
“See these?” She asked.
The boys nodded yes, signaling for her to continue.
“You’re suppose to put your bag onto the belt and it goes through the scanner.”
“Why?” Sirius asked.
“It’s for security purposes.” She replied.
“Why?” he asked again.
“To make sure no one is carrying something in their bag they’re not supposed to be bringing onto the plane.”
“Why?”
“Because – oh stop that!” she smacked Sirius on the arm, scowling as his snickering.
“Now,” she continued, “I’m going to go over to this one right here, because it’s open. You two go to that one over there. When you’re through, we’ll meet on the other side and continue to our plane.”
“Yes ma’am!” James answered dutifully with a goofy smile.
Lily answered back with a happy smile and bounced off.
Taking deep breaths as though they were about to face something terrible, the boys stepped forward to the place Lily instructed them to go and lifted their bags onto the black belt.
Sirius looked up at the sign and snorted, “Hey, look: Baggage Scan. Bet we’d see all sorts of baggage you’re carrying.”
James rolled his eyes, “Not nearly as much as you.”
“Oh really?” Sirius asked in challenge, “What about Tiffany?”
Rising to the challenge, James responded, “What about Jennifer? Or Abagail? Or Marlene? Or Sandra? Or Tyler? Or – “
“Okay, fine, you’ve made your point,” Sirius cut in, “Just – hop onto the belt.”
“What?”
“Hop onto the belt.” Sirius repeated.
“I can’t hop onto the belt. Lily will kill me!” James insisted.
“Just do it.”
“No.”
“C’mon – “
“I can’t just – “
“It’ll be so funny – “
“Why don’t you – “
“Just do it – “
“But – “
“Please – “
“Ugh! Fine.” James said finally looking around to make sure no one was watching.
When he was sure he was clear, he lifted his leg up and hoisted himself onto the belt.
“Lie flat on your back,” Sirius said, pushing him down all the way.
“You want me to actually go through it?” James asked.
“Yeah, it’ll be so cool.”
Thinking about it for a moment, James nodded in agreement, “Okay.”
The was already up through to his knees when a security guard stopped them.
After an hour of interrogation, lots of insisting from Lily that this was their first time flying and they were a bunch of idiots, and a missed flight – the group decided to use the floo network.

Ah! I’ve actually never done these before, but I will try my hardest friend!! (also sorry for such a late reply! I’ve been working on my finals)
Okay, so
Remus first noticed he liked Sirius back in 5th year
It wasn’t a big deal at the time, just noticing the curve of his hand as he held his quill while doodling in Transfiguration (which he later got detention for)
Or the way Sirius’ hair fell in front of his eyes and he’d run his hand through it only to have it swiftly fall back into place
Remus took it with stride like everything, knowing that he’d been admiring people of various genders for a while now
It wasn’t until one night when the two of them sat in Remus’ bed and talked in hushed tones
The way the dreaded moonlight glinted off Sirius’ eyes and made them shine as bright as his namesake seemed to memorize Remus
It was in that moment when he realized he may be in a little deeper than he originally thought
As for Sirius, he fell fast and hard after coming back from summer vacation 6th year
He made James catch him when he swooned like the drama queen he is (nearly sending them both to the floor if Peter wasn’t there to accidentally bump James in the opposite direction)
At this point, obviously Remus has noticed the excessive amounts of flailing from the other side of the train station
So he heads over and sees Sirius curled up on the floor with his face beat red and partially hidden by his hands
(Remus obviously thought that this was absolutely adorable and fell even more in love with this dork)
Remus bent over while James and Peter snickered off to the side like the helpful friends they are, and when Remus placed a hand on Sirius’ shoulder, the shorter man merely squeaked (Peter: “Hey he’s turning into me”) and curled up even tighter
At first Remus thought that he had done something wrong, but when he saw Sirius’ blush deepen, he couldn’t help but smile to himself as he let himself believe that maybe, just maybe, something can go right in his life
But Remus is an anxious (although extremely sassy) baby so he acts like nothing is different (although, seeing as he’s a terrible actor he was nearly as obvious of his affection as Sirius was)
Weeks go by of hopeless pining
“Oh Merlin, James, did you see the way the wind rustled Remus’ hair?! He looked like a bloody masterpiece! I am so fucked.”
“Lily, he would never go for someone like me. I’m all dorky and awkward limps, while he’s…perfection.” (Cue long suffering sigh)
(This is also when James and Lily start hanging out more, mainly because they need someone else to rant to about how annoyingly oblivious their friends are)
Sirius climbs into Remus’ bed late one night (Sirius says it’s because he can’t sleep because of James’ obnoxious snoring, even though the room was completely silent) and the two of them curl up close, their faces nearly touching
They merely sit in silence for awhile, completely transfixed
Sirius slowly reaches out to brush a strand of hair away from Remus’ face, completely mesmerized by the way his dimples deepened as smile stretched across his pale freckled face, and the way a light blush crept across his face from the gentle touch
Something seemed to click in Sirius’ brain in that moment and all he could do was smile back at the beautiful boy in front of him
The two of them fell asleep in each other’s arms
(James nearly started to throw confetti when he saw them curled up together in the morning, only to want to rip out his hair and bash their heads together when they acted like nothing had happened)
After that night the two of them would send each other glances and not so secret smiles
After a few weeks of this, Lily, James, and Peter marched up to the two of them curled up on the couch to question them (Which really just consisted of Lily blurting out “Oh for fuck’s sake just kiss already!”)
Sirius and Remus merely blinked at her and turned to each other, only to burst out laughing
“Technically, we’ve already kissed quite a bit.” (Cue major Sirius blush)
While James and Lily tried to process this, Peter helpfully piped up “So does this mean you two are finally dating?”
This time it was Remus’ turn to blush “Um, well, actually…”
“We’re still best of friends, but we also really like each other and don’t want to fuck it up, so, no? Maybe?” Sirius turned to Remus to judge his reaction as he murmurer a soft “Yes?” only to see the other boy’s face blossom in a brilliant smile and envelop him in a tight hug
