"Who?" Sirius wasn't aware of anyone wanting to actually kill Remus. "Anyway, I'll protect you." As he followed Remus over to where James and Peter were, he couldn't resist resting his hand on Remus' hip. He was so fed up with all the covetous looks being cast at Remus. And all the curious glances and whispers. At least enlisting Pete and James into the prank would mean he wouldn't be alone in creating the diversion.
Remus looked at Sirius quickly and snorted. "Your fanclub, Pads. I think they are banding together. Girls are mean, you know." He glanced at the crafty females and felt a little paranoid. "I think even Moony is a bit daunted."
Reaching the table, Remus nodded at a few other Gryffindors and sat across from James and Peter.
Sirius slid between Remus and Nina, a girl he'd dated early the previous year for a few weeks. He glanced at her and she smiled back. She didn't look threatening.
"Moony's daunted? Fuck, it must be bad." he laughed. "I'm more than a little concerned about your fan club though, you seem to attract the more feral type."
He leaned across the table and nicked half a piece of toast and marmalade from James' plate. "Thanks mate."
Remus rolled his eyes. He looked at Nina Whatever-her-name and commented, "If you could move down the bench, we have something private to discuss, thanks." Remus smiled politely and just "happened" to flash his prefect's badge. She glared at him and moved.
He sighed happily. "I do like being prefectish." Remus poured himself some pumpkin juice and leaned over and murmured, in a low voice, "Tell them the idea."
Pete shyly passed Remus the food. "Sorry, I just really like them," he blushed. Then he looke around at James, Sirius, and Remus, watching their hopeful eyes. "You-you mean right in front of everyone, in the Great Hall?" His throat glumped as he swallowed hard. "D'you think we'll get caught?" he hissed.
"Not if we can come up with a good enough diversion. Which we haven't thought about yet. Any ideas?" Sirius grinned as he thought of something. "But I do suggest you get down low when it happens. There's likely to be a few hexes flying. They have no sense of humour."
Pete looked wide-eyed at Remus. "You haven't planned it yet?" Then he leaned across the table and whispered fervently in his ear. "You're going to let those two loose without even a hint of a plan?"
Realising he was having a private conversation with Remus he sat back down and looked shyly as Sirius and James. "S-sorry, mates, I...what I said is...is that," he stuttered. Then finally it came out like a flood. "Is it wise to let you two loose without a plan. I'm sorry, I didn't mean it, but you have to admit, I mean you don't have to admit, but it is hard to deny....oh bugger."
James laughed heartily. "Calm down, Petey-boy," he said, sobering. "We don't care, I'll easily admit it." He looked at Sirius for some back up on it.
"Besides, it would be nice to have a plan since we're openly doing this in the Great Hall." Then his eyes narrowed conspiratorily as he looked at his two mates across from him. "Playful banter is easily flirting between you two. Which brings me to my next point. You two can create the diversion," he smirked.
Evan grimaced, placing the sodden bit of toast he still held in his hand on the table. He shook his head, trying to get some of the water out of his eyes, and looked down at his hands, which were streaked green by the rain.
"Fucking Gryffindors!" He growled, looking over at their table. He stood up from where he'd landed when the benches collapsed, wincing as he rubbed his arse.
