Disclaimer- Is there anyone who would seriously think that I'm JK Rowling? Really? If there is, they must be a Hufflepuff! ZING! But seriously, I'm just a silly teenage girl who writes bad fan fiction and nothing more :'(
Snape and the Marauders! Catastrophe 1: Sev's First Prank
It was midnight on a Thursday; The perfect prank time for a newbie such as Severus. And what a newbie he was!
"Okay, so brainstorming for Sev's first prank starts Now!" James announced.
"Something involving a color changing charm!" Peter stated.
"Somewhere very public! Like in the Great Hall!" James added.
"Something that won't get us into too much trouble, please?" Remus added pleadingly.
"Remus, shush." Sirius said.
"How about I come up with my own prank..?" Severus suggested with sarcasm. Now that he actually knew the marauders, he figured out that they weren't as bright as people believed them to be. And when he talks, they all just kind of agree.
"Brilliant." Sirius said, obviously impressed.
"I like it." James agreed.
"Alright then.." Severus licked his lips, thinking of something to do that the marauders hadn't already done. "How about this! I charm the gargoyle in front of Dumbledore's office to make rude comments whenever someone says the password?"
"That's actually not too bad." Remus said thoughtfully. "Yeah, I think I know just the spell for that!" Now he was excited.
"Okay then, this is how we'll do it…"
The Next Day
Minerva McGonagall was briskly walking towards the Headmaster's office. Today was her birthday, and Dumbledore had requested her presence in his office as to give her a gift. She passed by the Gargoyle guarding the office, stating the password without stalling her pace.
"Lavender toad."
"Sure baby, I'll let you threw. As soon as you get that nose fixed! Bahahahahahaha!"
At this, the professor stopped.
"Pardon?"
"You heard me. Oh, and before you go, BRUSH YOUR TEETH LADY!" The Gargoyle began to cackle once more.
"Why, I never!" And she stormed away, forgetting the possibility of any birthday present.
Professor Binns was strolling down the hall. People never really noticed him, floating above them. And of course that led to rumors that he wasn't even aware of his own death and such. Which was certainly not true, seeing as he had committed suicide. Yes, he had been a very depressed man and sought to end it all. And then had been forced to "live" so to speak, even after death. The most brutal punishment. And it saddened him to think that the students had no respect for him or the subject he taught.
So his occasional visits to talk to Dumbledore really helped. He always left feeling better about himself, even though he was a ghost he had feelings too.
"Lavender Toad." He whispered.
"Alright, UGLY, in you go." The Gargoyle whispered back, mocking him.
"Excuse me?" Some might wonder why Professor Binns didn't just go through the door to the Headmaster's office. But just last week, Dumbledore had advised him to enter places as "humanly" as possible, so to make him feel like he fit in more among the living. And it had been working so far..
"Yeah that's right. I called you UGLY. Because you are. And hey, don't you teach History of Magic?"
"Y-yes.. I do."
"So you're ugly and teach the most boring subject on the planet! Ha!"
"I hardly find this appropriate.. Please, just let me through to see the Headmaster."
"What does the Headmaster have to say to a ghost, anyway? You're dead, man! Now SCRAM." The Gargoyle began cackling even harder as Professor Binns floated down the corridor once again with ghostly tears in his eyes. (1)
It was dinner in the great hall, and let me tell you! There were many rumors dealing with the Gargoyle's new attitude- from students and teachers alike! This is why Dumbledore stood up to make an announcement.
"Attention! As most of you know, someone," He looked directly at the marauders with a twinkle in his eyes. "charmed the Gargoyle in front of my office to make, ahem, hurtful comments to those who try and enter. We ask those to please reverse it immediately. Also, History if Magic has been cancelled for this week due to Professor Binns needing a small vacation." He sat down and proceeded to enjoy his meal.
Somewhere in a broom closet, far far away
"Well my boys, I we're here to discuss Severus's first prank. Begin!" James declared.
"I think it went very well. Think of it, no History of Magic this week! At all!" Sirius exclaimed. He was practically hopping.
"Padfoot, please quit hopping! You almost killed my little toe!" Remus whined.
"Sorry Moony!" Sirius replied.
"Boys, focus!" Peter said. "Now, how do you think Sev's prank went?"
"It was a huge success." Remus said.
"So.. What does this all mean?" Severus asked. He still felt shifty about the marauders. What if I turn around and suddenly they decide to, oh I don't know, throw me in the lake!
"It means, silly Severus, that you are officially a member of the marauders." James said with pride.
"What if it hadn't been a success..?" Severus timidly asked.
"Well then, we would've thrown you in the lake." Remus stated without batting an eyelash. Sirius, Peter and James all nodded in agreement.
"So, does this mean I get a silly nickname?" Severus jokingly said.
"Severus, this is EXACTLY what it means." Sirius said, well seriously.
"Oh no.."
