Mate? Are you around?

[Have one very frazzle-sounding best friend, Padfoot.]

[black_dogstar]

Prongs? What's wrong?

[One concerned best friend.]

[maraudingprongs]

[He's not about to admit that Snape got to him, so he settles for trying to sound more cocky and brush it off as something annoying having happened.]

Snivellus showed up. And he's ancient.

[black_dogstar]

What?! Since when? How long's he been here?

...And how ancient?

[He's not certain how he missed this.]

[Voice]

[maraudingprongs]

Hey Padders, it's me. Your amazing best mate. Ring me back!

[Voice]

[black_dogstar]

My amazing best mate, eh? Yeah, what's up?

[Voice]

[maraudingprongs]

Yes, you know. So James, not Remus.

Anyway, mate, I just wanted-- to chat, you know.

[Yep. He's beating around the bush.]

Lily's here now, and... [And he'd rather her not know about everything right away, considering the toll it's taken on Sirius.] ...best to keep her in the dark a bit, hey?

[Also, considering that thing they didn't talk about...] And. You're all right. Right?

[Voice]

[black_dogstar]

Yeah, sounds good to me.

[If James didn't think she should know then he wasn't going to tell her. Not about any of it.]

Yeah, m'fine. You know me, resilient, male, the whole deal.
