(A/N): Hey Guys! So, two chapters in one night after a dry spell! How do you feel about me now?!

Edit: This chapter has been editted, because I said they were first years instead of second years.

Disclaimer: I own nothing but Leo, Elaine, Shari, Nicholai, Mia, Brooke and Quiggly.

Classes were awfully dull as of late. Then again, when weren't they? I conferred with Sirius, and he agrees that we should add a little spice to the bleak life here at Hogwarts, with a little prank.

Peter went along immediately, and Remus took a little convincing, but eventually, he joined us with a roll of his eyes, probably hoping to minimise the damage. Pfft, like he could!

And as an added bonus...we made Leo come along with us.

"Okay Leo, since you are now a consorting Marauder-" He tried to protest, but I waved him off. "Too bad, you are." He raised an eyebrow, though remained silent.

"Deal with it." Sirius told him playfully, having one arm hooked around Leo's, mine around his other as if to keep him in place.

Truth be told, if Leo wanted to leave, we wouldn't be able to stop him, we knew that. After all, remember the last time we tried to kidnap him? He escaped, and we couldn't get him back into the bloody chair!

"Anyway, as consorting Marauder, you must help us with a prank. Or, if that doesn't strike your fancy, you could make a whole new prank on your own." I suggested, and he pouted at me, which I must say, for a guy, was quite adorable.

"Do I have to?" He whined, and we all nodded. "Well then, if I have no choice...I'll do a prank on my own." Peter rolled his eyes.

"This should be good." Leo glared at the back of Pete's head, seeing as he was walking a little ways ahead of us, and I shook my head.

"You don't know that Pete. Leo could be a pranking mastermind in disguise!" Leo smiled slightly before leaning with his full weight on me, almost tripping me up.

"Thanks Prongs." I attempted to push him off me, and he simply flopped onto Sirius instead, who huffed.

"What have you been eating?" I saw Leo smirk, and I was silently happy that he wasn't sulking. Did he really hate himself?

"Less than you have, oh sir-starving!" Leo teased before righting himself so he was walking by himself now, not leaning on one of us.

"Hey! I'm a growing boy, you know!" Leo snorted, and I rolled my eyes. Sirius ate more than was natural.

"Growing into what, Sasquatch?" Leo asked rhetorically, and Sirius looked a little peeved. "Relax, Padfoot, stress is slowly killing you." We don't know why he said that, or where he picked it up, but when he said that, it actually helped.

It reminded us that, someone was there, that someone cared about us, and knew when we were angry. And they actually cared for our well-being. I knew, for Sirius, with parents like his, this was very, very valuable.

"Yeah, yeah, let's just get this started." Sirius sighed, and I raised an eyebrow over Leo's head, which was hard considering he was actually maybe an inch taller than the both of us. And we weren't exactly short for our age.

"Speaking of which, what are we doing?" Leo asked curiously, and Sirius returned my glance before nodding, showing that he was fine, and that I could tell him.

"We're pulling a prank in the Great Hall." Not very original, no, but still, it would be funny with the right preparation.

"What type of prank?" Leo asked, staring at me, waiting for an answer. For someone so secretive, he sure expects a lot of answers.

"We're going to cast a spell that drops glue and glitter onto everyone." His eyebrows wrinkled together in concentration, and confusion.

"Won't the teachers know it was you?" We all paused for a second, thinking it over.

"Crap." Remus swore, a rare event for him, and the rest of us Marauders felt the same.

"What are we going to do now? How will they not know it was us?" Peter asked, and Leo raised an eyebrow.

"Well, you could just enchant the ceiling to snow glue and glitter. Then no one will know it was you." We all froze, staring at him intently.

"Won't they still know it was us?" Remus asked, speaking for all of us, and Leo nodded with a grin.

"Not if you do it tonight, setting a delaying charm on it so it goes off at breakfast tomorrow instead of straight away." We stared at him. "All you have to do then is look innocent, and the teacher's will have no clue it was you."

"You, my man, are a genius." Sirius told him, untangling his arm from Leo's and draping it over his shoulders instead.

"You do know how to look innocent, don't you?" He asked, raising an eyebrow at us as if to challenge this, and we rolled our eyes.

"We weren't always wildly popular pranksters, you know." Leo scoffed.

"Wildy popular...pranksters...heh, you make me laugh." We raised eyebrows at him as he shrugged off Sirius arm from his shoulder, making to walk away.

"What?" Peter asked, puzzled, just like the rest of us.

"You may be popular, but you're only second years. Also, this is the first prank you've actually pulled." We all looked rather sheepish, I think.

"All you have to do now though is make it through the day, sneak into the Great Hall tonight, cast the charms, and watch chaos unfold in the morning." He grinned at us before gripping the strap of his messenger back slightly tighter as if out of habit, and starting towards our first lesson of the day, Potions.

"Hey, wait up!" We called, chasing after him.

As we arrived at the Potions classroom, Leo pulled Elaine and Lily (oh my Evans!) over to us.

"We won't be going to the Great Hall for breakfast in the morning." He told them in hushed tones, and they nodded, though looking curious.

"Why not?" He grinned atLily (my Lily-flower!), which she returned. What I would give to make her smile like that! ...or at all, really.

"From what I've heard, glue and glitter aren't really in as an accessory this year."

(A/N): So, what did you think?

The title 'Accessory of the Year' is both a reference to that last line, and the fact that Leo is an accessory to the crime (if you could call pranking a crime).
