Sev
You've really reached the bottom, Lily.
I've tried to warn you.
But you're beyond help now.
Lily
Good god did your mother drop you on your head as a baby?
You interrupted me on a date to call me a golddigger
Got in James' face
And you've got the audacity to tell me that I'm at rock bottom?
Sev
I tried to protect you.
Lily
You tried to control me, there's a difference.
Sev
Can't we talk this over?
Lily
It's too late.
I've made excuses for you for years.
None of my friends can understand why I even talk to you.
Sev
All I've ever wanted was for us to make something of our lives, Lily.
I'm trying to help you.
Lily
Those people you hang around with will drop you as soon as you're not interesting anymore.
You don't even deny that's what you're aiming to be - interesting to people like the Blacks.
Sev
They've always been there for me.
Always.
Lily
Well, I can't pretend I want anything to do with their friendship.
You've chosen your way, I've chosen mine.
James
i can only apologise
for last night
Lily
Why are you apologising?
James
my friends
your friends
your ex?
it was basically a disaster of a first date
Lily
James
It was HILARIOUS
James
wait what
Lily
Sirius running across the bar screaming
Dorcas throwing a drink at Sirius' cousin
While wearing that ludicrous wig
James
well now you mention it
it was really funny
god knows why sirius was screaming
Lily
Pretty certain he was screaming "not my James you bitch"
James
lmao classic sirius
so you're not mad at me?
Lily
God no
I realised recently
That I have to stop giving Severus the gentle approach
Because it clearly isn't working
And frankly, he deserved it
James
well, if you want to risk it
do you fancy going to the ball with me?
i know we're all going anyway
but i thought we could go together
like, properly
Lily
If you're asking me if I want to run the risk of getting in a bar fight with you again
Then the answer's an absolute yes :)
James
:) :)
Hoes of Hepburn Ave.
alright mum
Well gang
I have to say
You were quite something last night
HISS HISS BITCH
In our defence
We didn't expect Satan and his minions to turn up
Dorcas Meadowes
I also didn't expect to have to fight to leave
Sirius Black
i apologise for nothing
we were FIRE
james rugby tackling riddle AND lestrange
remus getting regulus in a headlock
and then dorcas YEETED that drink at narcissa
Mary Macdonald
cannot BELIEVE the one night benjy wants to "talk"
is the night you guys BRAWLED in the keys
Marlene McKinnon
we've all been given lifetime bans Mary
alright mum
Thank god we're graduating in 6 months
Sirius Black
i prefer to think of it less as a brawl
more a team bonding exercise
HISS HISS BITCH
Thank God Sirius didn't steal another lobster
Sirius Black
you know i thought about it
but I decided my poor heart couldn't take it
i'm a loyal man
and goose has that loyalty
HISS HISS BITCH
What were you and Snape arguing about, anyway?
Lily
James
brutus
wait you didn't know?
HISS HISS BITCH
Sirius sort of barrelled in before we could get the full low down
Sirius Black
i've always liked to set an example
HISS HISS BITCH
Yeah, a bad one
brutus
snape came over and told lily she was embarrassing herself by being seen with me
alright mum
To which I pointed out that James is significantly less embarrassing than drinking with half of Sirius' family
Sirius Black
entirely accurate
brutus
then snape said that no wonder lily was attracted to me
because she was always "willing to get a leg over when there's money involved"
HISS HISS BITCH
NO.
Sirius Black
WHAT A LITTLE SHIT.
alright mum
So I slapped him
Dorcas Meadowes
I literally did not think it was possible for Snape to get worse
But he managed it
brutus
i obviously was having none of it
and then Sirius rocked up
Sirius Black
i've always had impeccable timing
Mary Macdonald
what, and then you all started brawling?
brutus
well sirius shoved snape
at which point the entirety of the black family descended on us like devils from hell
i *think* regulus was trying to break them up
but ended up hitting sirius in the face
so remus got him in a headlock
riddle and lestrange tried to get involved so i tackled them
lucius stayed at the bar lol
Narcissa spat at lily
so dorko lobbed a drink
and then the manager kicked us out
Sirius Black
bella shrieked about like a banshee at marlene
Cus she's actually fundamentally useless
so marls just stood there laughing
Mary Macdonald
blimey
well I'm heartily looking forward to the play by play at drinks before the ball tomorrow
Dorcas Meadowes
Also Sirius you're playing Halsey aren't you?
My floor is SHAKING from the sound
Sirius Black
WE ARE THE NEW AMERICANA
Marlene McKinnon
RAISED ON BIGGIE AND NIRVANA
Peter Pettigrew
can't believe you got in a fight wen I was at wrk
Sirius Black
PETER.
THE FLOW.
Regulus
You can congratulate your pal Lupin
My neck looks like I was in a fight with a giant squid
Sirius
*boyfriend
Regulus
Really?
Doesn't seem like he's your type
Sirius
doesn't seem like i particularly care
Regulus
Look, your friends seem fun I guess
Sirius
yours don't
regulus
why the hell are you hanging out with them?
Regulus
Bella and Narcissa are family, Sirius
And Lucius and Rodolphus are about to be
Sirius
even more of a reason not to spend time with any of them
bellatrix is DERANGED
and narcissa is a weak ass bitch
Regulus
You know Mother and Father wanted you to marry Narcissa
Sirius
god that makes me want to vomit
Regulus
Maybe if you didn't behave like the Black family name is an insult to you
Things might be easier
For all of us
Sirius
and in what world is it my job to make your lives easier?
you've certainly not offered me the same courtesy
Regulus
We behave like proper Blacks, Sirius
That's the difference
We don't always get on, but we know there are more important things to preserve than just a reputation as a bad boy
Sirius
god they've really got to you
you know
while you all learned to behave like proper blacks
i was learning how to be happy
i can really recommend it
so if you've got nothing else to say…
Regulus
And where are you spending Christmas?
Alone?
Sirius
with James and the family, like usual
you?
Regulus
Grimmauld Place
Sirius
well, i hope it's a good one
Regulus
You too, Sirius.
