[002 | video] I read the news today, oh boy!

[The video clicks on to the camera propped up in Lily's tiny kitchen, set so she can easily see it while she does whatever the hell it is she is doing with that giant simmering pot. Her hair is piled haphazardly directly on top of her head, which means it's sort of all over the place and definitely adding to her very frazzled look. She raps the pot

(Sirius had spent quite a while running around the ship looking for James. When he first noticed his stuff was gone--after bursting into his room in order to discuss the best way to transfigure a ball from the planet into a Dungbomb--he immediately set out to search for him. With, of course, no luck.

And so, being the manly man Sirius was, he had locked himself in his room to sulk in peace.)

[deathbydrapes]

(UNTIL HIS MANLY SULKING WAS INTERRUPTED BY A GIANT EXPLOSION FROM THE GUIDE!!!)

[deathbydrapes]

What the bloody hell was--

[deathbydrapes]

(Oh. Oh, it's Lily.)

[deathbydrapes]

[deathbydrapes]

(He looks the post over for a few minutes. Under normal circumstances, he would have laughed and made fun of the unfortunate explosion. But he knows what this is about, as anyone who knows them would, and he doesn't feel like laughing.)

[deathbydrapes]

(UGH THIS IS RIDICULOUS. DO YOU SEE YOURSELF, SIRIUS, WHAT IS THE MATTER WITH YOU SNAP OUT OF IT

BE A MAN.)

[deathbydrapes]

(DEEP BREATH. PUT YOUR GAME FACE ON.)

[deathbydrapes]

[deathbydrapes]

(All right.

Let's do this.)

DONE.

[deathbydrapes]

Now really, Evans, you can do better than that. Slughorn would be absolutely ashamed! You'll be taken down from that wall of his for such a monstrosity.

FINALLY.

[ofawitch]

[oh my god not YOU TOO. She actually points her wand directly at the camera and scowls.]

Don't. You. Start. You couldn't even put this much together.

SHUT UP IT WAS IMPORTANT

[deathbydrapes]

(Well that's just rude. But he smirks a bit and shrugs.)

Not exactly my go to stress reliever. Although, I did tell you finding the right ingredients here would be hard. Didn't Slughorn ever tell you not to put alien objects into your potions?

SURE SURE

[ofawitch]

I was just experimenting, it's not like I was going to feed it to anyone.

[she jabs at the pot with her wand, her eyebrows arching]

Until now, that is. Feel like coming round for some tea, Pads?

(NOTTALKING)

[deathbydrapes]

As much as I would be thrilled to be your guest of honor, I'm afraid I'm a bit busy at the moment. Important man and all, what with that teleshow going on. Besides, after such an explosive display, I'm not quite sure tea would be a good idea. You may end up blowing up the entire ship, and then what would we do?

[but Lily has just noticed your distinct lack of freaking out.]

Wait a moment...you knew, didn't you?
