After I get Sirius under control, I return to my laptop screen.

"Remus, this question is for you from Insane-Bookworm-4ever:

To Remus: Will you date someone or are you waiting 'till marriage? And yeah, is it true that your first ever kiss was an accident? What about doing a drinking game in which the players have to take a sip if one of their team speaks a lie? I think it's a great idea!

I give my nod of approval towards this idea, and at that moment house elves come bustling in with goblets of firewhisky. "Brilliant suggestion. Now if any of you says something that we deem a lie for the rest of the interview, you take a shot of this."

"Fine with me," Sirius says eagerly, grabbing at a goblet. I smack his hand away with my free hand and shake my spray bottle at him threateningly. He gives me puppy eyes comparable to a child who had just found coal in his stocking, but backs away from the alcohol trays nonetheless.

Remus scratches the back of his head. "So the question's asking me if I'm going to wait until marriage to date? How does that even make any sense?"

I shrug. "Just answer to the best of your ability."

Remus smirks to himself, but immediately stifles it to be polite. He looks at the ground, "Well, I do plan on dating before I commit to marry a woman."

"And what about your accidental kiss?" Severus imposes.

"It was not an accident." Remus responds almost immediately, but he shifts around uncomfortably until it's clear to everyone in the room that he is definitely lying.

Remus blushes. "I guess I'll just take my shot of firewhisky, then," he mumbles.

While Remus is choosing a goblet, I move on to our next lovely reviewer, who happened to have another question directed towards our dear Moony!

Remus begins to drink his cup as I read aloud,

My question is to Remus: In his opinion, what is the most ridiculous mischievous activity the marauders ever got detention for? Also this seems like an interestingly hilarious idea please continue with it! I saw it and my reaction was: I must read it!

Remus chokes on his drink as he barks a laugh. "Do you honestly think Sirius is going to let me tell you that?"

I zero in on Sirius, who is looking uncharacteristically anxious in his corner of the room. "Don't you dare tell them, mate," Sirius is mouthing repeatedly to Remus. Sirius does not break eye contact with Remus as our werewolf friend chooses his next words carefully.

"Can't lie," I say simply.

Remus can find no way around it. "In third year, Sirius convinced James and me to lift him over the wall to the teachers' quarters so he could ask Madame Pomfrey her opinion on - "

Remus is cut short as Sirius tackles him to the ground. Straddling Remus and covering his mouth with both hands, Sirius turns to me sweetly.

"Next question, please," he says.

I roll my eyes, "Sorry wordsareawesome, I guess we'll never know what interested Sirius in the teachers quarters so much. Use your imagination."

Sirius glowers. I laugh.

"SlytherinDemigod13 wonders if Lily hates James as much as she says she does."

All eyes turn to Lily.

She raises her head slightly, believing her pride to be on the line. "Of course! I stand by everything I've said."

I lean in from Dumbledore's throne and beckon Lily closer. "Really?" I whisper.

She looks at me as though I'm uncovering her inner thoughts at that moment. "Yes."

"So if you had a choice," I say, back to a normal volume, "would you REALLY rather go out with the giant squid than James Potter?"

Lily turns the shade of her hair for the umpteenth time that afternoon. "Maybe...maybe that's an exaggeration."

James is staring at her with a mixture of bewilderment and wonder. Lily glances at him, then turns back. Everyone is staring at them in curious shock.

I clap my hands to snap the tangible, hot tension in the room. "A Guest wants to know what everyone's favorite muggle song is."

Lily says, "Do you guys even know any muggle songs?"

Remus responds, "Sure! Muggle studies required a chapter in pop culture. My favorite song is Let It Be by The Bugs."

Lily snorts. "I think you mean The Beatles, Remes."

"Oh, yeah, them," Remus says. "Well, yes. That's my favorite. It calms me down, I guess."

"Mine's Fat Bottomed Girls by the one and only Freddie Mercury," Sirius says with a devilish grin playing about his face.

James coughs. "I bet you think Madame Pomfrey had a - " Sirius stuffs James' face into his armpit.

Lily speaks up, "There are really too many to choose from for me. I love These Boots Were Made for Walkin' by Nancy Sinatra, Sweet Caroline by Neil Diamond, December 1963 by - "

"Frankie Valli?" James interjects, finally coming up for air from Sirius' chokehold. Lily nods, and James says, "The Four Seasons is great. My favorite song's actually Can't Take My Eyes Off of You."

Lily's eyes widen. "I'm obsessed with that song!"

"Well my favorite song is You Can't Always Get What You Want," Severus says cooly from across the room. James glances at him, opens his mouth, contemplates something for a second, and then closes it.

"Mine's Lean On Me," Peter pipes up, after a slight silence. I am taken aback, since for a second I had forgotten that he was still in the room.

"Thank you for your input, Peter," I say, careful not to grit my teeth. I restrain myself from strangling him, though, because I have to remind myself that he has not yet betrayed Lily and James.

AvidReader says,

I think it's time to bring the Veritas serum out :)

"What an excellent idea," I say, despite the horror in everyone else's eyes as they realize the secrets that could potentially be spilled in these next hours.

I sift through my bag until I pull out my walkie-talkie. "Hello," I radio my House Elf friend on the other end, "could you please bring in a batch of Veritas serum? My guests and I are about to play the most epic game of Truth or Dare ever."

"Coming," comes a voice. The walkie talkie crinkles.

I pause, inspecting the room with my mouth scrunched to one side. There's something - or someone - missing.

I identify the absent component. "Oh yes, one more thing," I say.

"Yes?"

"Please send up Lucius Malfoy as well."
