The Cask of Butterbeer - HP fanfic – inspired by E. A. Poe, and my love for the Marauders. This is the first chapter of three. More to come soon. How soon, can't say, but I'll be working on it, of that you can be sure- umi


The thousand injures of James Potter I had borne… witness to that is, primarily because I was right there beside him doing the injuring. That's what best mates do after all.

But sometimes a best mate must take action against their friend, these times are rare, and certainly a well prepared plan is desired for the proper outcome. There can be no room for error.

I am prepared.

It is the out of school season and I have been a guest in the Potter residence. Their hospitality is sparring me from dwelling with my own family, for which I will be eternally grateful.

I mean no disrespect and can only hope my actions reflect the same sentiment to them as well.

This evening my plan will come to a close, and he suspects nothing.
