This is my first MWPP story, enjoy!
Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter.
Remus: I found it!
James: Found what, Moony?
Remus: The spell! I found the spell! Oh at last, at last! Prongs, wand at the ready.
James: Uh, Moony? Mind telling me what spell I'm doing?
Remus: Oh yes, of course. It's an art charm. Of course, we'll have to modify it to suit our purposes, but the point is we've got it! Now then, oh never mind. Padfoot, any luck figuring out a password?
Peter: Password?
Remus: Sigh yes; Wormtail I told you last week we'd be doing this. Don't tell me you forgot.
Peter: Of course not but…why do we need a password?
James: Because, dear Wormtail, if we don't have a password for opening and one for closing, anyone can read it. Now then, what say we name this map, eh?
Sirius: I like 'Map for those worthy of proper mischief making'.
Peter: Too long. Something short we can remember.
Remus: We're talking about what we'll call it.
James: How about…
Remus: No, we are NOT naming the map after Lily. Honestly, you're obsessed.
Sirius: On the password note, I think it should be an oath.
Remus: Wow Padfoot, nice one. Prongs, what do you think?
James: I solemnly swear…to ask Lily out.
Remus: You've already tried that plenty of times. But if you ever do win her heart, what do you plan on doing?
James: I solemnly swear that I'll be up to no good.
Peter: That's it!
Sirius: What is?
Peter: The password. 'I solemnly swear that I'll be up to no good'.
James: No…'I solemnly swear that I'm up to no good'.
Remus: Right-o! So now that we have an opening password…
James: We need a closing password.
Sirius: And a name.
James: Well, the password should be something to say that we're done with, um
Sirius: Mischief making.
James: Right. So…'Done mischief making'?
Remus: No…something short so dear Wormtail can remember.
Peter: Thanks, Moony.
Remus: Not a problem. But that was good, Prongs.
James: Hmmm…
Lily: So, what mischief have the Marauders managed? Finished that map yet?
Sirius: That's it! Moony, jot that down!
James: Huh? Padfoot, what are you talking about?
Sirius: Well Prongs, you wanted to name the map after Lily, so this should be the next best thing. She named it and gave it a closing password.
James: So it's still named after her…sort of.
Lily: Um…did you boys forget that I'm still here?
James: Oh Lily! You're a genius!
Lily: Yes, well, I'll just leave you to it then.
Sirius: Prongs snap out of it.
James: Huh? Oh, yeah, sorry.
Remus: So, you were just about to explain to me what it is that I'm writing down.
Sirius: Ah yes, well, the title should be 'The Marauders Map', and the closing password can be 'Mischief Managed'.
James: Nice
Remus: I can't believe it, Padfoot. You may yet have a bit of genius in that brain of yours after all.
Peter: Of course he does.
James: Only when mischief making.
Sirius: Thank-you, thank-you. After all, I am the better looking-
Remus: Don't push it. So, all we have to do now is modify that charm and…
James: It'll be done.
Sirius: But remember the rule: You can't use this just to spy on Lily. That's just, well,
Remus: Wrong.
Peter: Gross.
Sirius: Yes. So, Moony, carry on but I'm going to bed.
Peter: Me too.
James: Same here. Moony, just go to bed; we'll do it tomorrow.
Remus: Yes well, after your game we will.
James: Right, after the game. Night, all.
