Chapter 3… sorry it's been so long… we've been really busy… well… kind of… anyways… first prank is a go.
Disclaimer: we're not cool enough to have written Harry Potter.
Potions class
J: ok… I've got the stuff in my trunk… tonight we rock.
R: I sure hope you know what you're doing.
S: Don't be such a wimp Moony. So who's the target?
J: Snivelly first.
S: You're right. So what should we do? We could use the whoopee cushion on his seat. But that'd be kind of hard to pull off right now… which prank… which prank.
J: Let's consult the book. Pulls out the book they found in the shop. Umm… hair removing cream in his shampoo…
S: That's not a prank… we'd be doing him a favor.
J: Very true…umm…sugar in the salt shakers?
S: Sounds good… simple enough… don't want to use our good material too soon.
R: Alright fine… it is Snivellus after all.
J: Hell yeah.
S: We could do all the Slytherins. Moony… would you like to do the honors?
J: Yeah Moony… you should do the first one.
S: And it's simple… so even your low prankster abilities should be able to pull it off.
J: Yeah… now the Seran Wrap… you should leave that to us.
S: You could never pull it off.
J: You would wrap yourself in it.
S: I would n-… Oh… you meant him.
J: You probably would too.
S: Shut up.
R: You probably would wrap yourself in it Padfoot. Alright… I'll do the prank at dinner tonight. Just make sure you two don't forget it.
S: We won't… that way when McGonagall yells at us… we can honestly say that you did it.
R: Git… she'll never believe you.
S: I guess we'll have to let her catch you then.
R: No. I don't want to get detention for one of your pranks.
S: You already said you'd do it. It's in writing and everything.
R:… Damn.
Early the next morning…
S: Now's your chance Moony. Get in there and make us proud.
R: O.K. fine. Do you want me to switch all of them… or just the Slytherin's… or just ours… what's the plan?
S: Umm… do all of them.
J: Don't forget the teachers.
R: Fine. There's nobody in there now right?
J: Yeah. Now hurry before the teachers show up.
R: Okay okay… I'm going. I can't believe I'm doing this. Runs off.
J: He runs like a girl.
S: Well what did you expect?
J: Good point.
S: So I'm thinking we should wait a few minutes before going in. That way we won't look too suspicious.
J: We would look suspicious anyways.
S: That's true… It's really not fair. Just because we're always behind everything doesn't mean they always have to suspect us.
J: Well seeing that we are always behind it… they really have no choice.
S: It'd just be nice if they suspect someone else once in awhile. Maybe I'll mention that to McGonagall… it could be her birthday present to me.
J: Sirius… you have a summer birthday.
S: Well… early Christmas present then.
R: comes running back, panting Okay, it's done. The teachers starting coming in just as I was finishing up. I was almost – hey!
S: feigns innocence What?
R: I do not run like a girl!
S: Oh, that… well, you know Moony, it's nothing to be ashamed about…
J: Yeah… lots of guys run like girls
S: Yeah… Snivelly, for example.
R: I hate you.
S: You can't hate me! I'm too lovable!
J: I'm just too cool to be hated by anyone
R: You mean besides Evans.
J: Shut up! Remember Marauder Code Number 65… you never use Evans to insult me.
S: I never agreed to that!
J: You signed the code!
S: Well who reads the fine print?
R: If I remember correctly… it was in big, bold print.
S:…Go to hell.
J: I'd rather not… how about we go to breakfast instead.
At breakfast…
Sirius pours "salt" on his eggs
J: Um… he does know we switched those, right? Is he doing that on purpose?
R: I'm not sure… it's hard to tell with Padfoot.
J: Should we remind him?
R: …Nah. It's a learning experience. We'll let him find out for himself.
S: takes a bite of his eggs Ew, these are disgusting! What's up with the house elves today?
J: Um… Padfoot?
S: What… oh.
R: Yeah.
S: …Don't say anything.
J: Not picking on you for getting fooled by your own prank… that's not in the Code.
S: What? …well I'm adding it!
J: I'm not signing it!
R: Me neither. This is just too funny.
J: Now that Padfoot is up to speed with the plan… we should probably be watching everyone else.
S: Look! Snivellus is having pancakes!
R: Is he putting sugar on them?
J: Yup… freak.
S: Hey, I put sugar on my pancakes!
R: You put sugar on everything.
S: … that's beside the point.
J: Hey, he's taking a bite! Watch him!
R: … any idea why we're writing this all down instead of talking to each other?
S: Nope.
R: Yet we continue to do so.
S: Yup.
J: That's how we roll.
S: Oh, look at Snivelly's face! It's even uglier than before!
J: I didn't know that was possible.
S: Neither did I. Oh look…he's examining the sugar now. Is there a way to switch it back?
J: That'd be funny as hell.
R: Not unless we resorted back to the old ways.
S: Old ways?
J: Magic dumbass.
S: I hate you.
J: Look… he's giving it to your cousin.
S: Yes… put lots on you evil-
R: Now now Padfoot… she is your cousin.
S: Don't remind me.
J: So who's expression was better?
S: I'll tell you after I see Slughorn's face.
R: What? Slughorn is doing it too.
J: Could that man use any more salt?
S: Why doesn't he just unscrew the top?
J: Look… he's going to eat it.
S: O.K. he definitely had the best expression.
J: Damn… McGonagall is looking our way. Act innocent.
S: We are innocent… Moony did it.
R: I hate you.
