A little derpish fic to do in my spare time. Not my best writing ever, but I guess it'll do?


Prologue

"Soooooooo." James grinned and clambered over the cafeteria bench to sit next to Remus. "A little birdie told me that someone-" he wiggled his eyebrows at Remus pointedly "-got into Sleeping Beauty."

Remus groans. "A little rat told you, more like."

"Who bleeding cares? You," he stabbed his pointer finger at Remus' face, "got into Sleeping Beauty. I don't know whether to laugh or to throw a party. Maybe both."

Sirius climbed onto the bench opposite them. "Who's throwing a party, now?"

James' eyes glinted. He leaned across the table towards Sirius, as if he were telling a very important secret. "Our little Moony here just got into Sleeping Beauty at the theatre down the street. And what's more, it's a musical. A musical!" He shouted this triumphantly. "I don't know about you, mate, but I'm buying tickets to EVERY SHOW."

Sirius snickered. "Well, Moony, should be pretty easy for you then, yeah? All you've gotta do is lie there through the thing and wait for the date rape at the end."

"Shut up. I'm not going to be goddamn Sleeping Beauty."

"I'm glad, mate – no offence or anything, but it wouldn't especially be a pretty sight with you in a flowing pastel pink dress, long blonde hair, and jewelry and all," said Peter cheerfully, dumping armfuls of chalk pastels and paint tubes onto the table.

"Not at all," hummed Sirius. "I, for one, think Remus would make a lovely crossdresser."

Remus gave Peter a death glare. "You shouldn't even be talking," he turned to Sirius. "I'm not the one who had to be a gay tranny in a fuzzy red and white dress a few months ago. Has the character rubbed off on you? Maybe I should ask Alice if her skirts and bras have gone missing lately; she deserves to know who did it."

"Shut up guys." Paint tubes flew off the table via James' waving arms. "The point is, Remus got into Sleeping Beauty. No, actually, the real point is, Remus got into a musical. Period. And we're all gonna get tickets from you, yes?" He batted his eyelashes at Remus, who slapped him upside the head and walked away.
