James has been cooped up in the library for days, and Sirius finds the subsequent cancellation of quidditch practice to be unacceptable. Remus and Peter to the rescue! Or, perhaps, ridicule.

Snape doesn't know who is to blame for this situation, in fact he's knowlingly suppressing the knowledge so he doesn't try to kill them. Either Dumbledore or Voldemort is at fault, for sure.

He'd lived with Remus since first year. He really, really should have known by now. But then again, it might be for the best after all. According to Remus, that is. Lily undoubtedly thinks so too.
