“what can i say? someone has to deflat your head or else it may explode someday.” she chuckled. “i think you will just be fine, maybe it takes a few days or for your fan club to show up but you’ll be okay.” she added. “i regret none of it, mostly because you know i love you, me being mean is just the way i show it to you.” lily bit her lip softly. “i don’t know if i should tell you this.. but one of the people here is our granddaughter, it’s really strange..”
everything she had said before kind fell away in the laughter & COMFORT of being by her side–– the last thing she said , it made him everything else disappear. james stumbled somewhat , gently grabbing her elbow as he stopped them where they stood. ‘ our granddaughter? ’ james wanting to be sure he heard that correctly.... our.

Mary’s eyes grew wide and she placed her hand against her heart. “How rude of you, James, I thought we were friends! How dare you tell me I’m old. I’m in the prime ,” she chuckled and shook her head. Slowly, she smiled. “Now that’s exactly what I needed to hear, thank you. I do look much better than Sirius.” Mary stopped herself from wrinkling her nose. Looking up at him, Mary knew it wasn’t a good time to say the truth. As much as it hurt her, she knew she didn’t want to be that messenger. “You are definitely not bald,” and that wasn’t a lie, “but with that thick mop, do you really think you would be, mate?”
‘ oh babe , didn’t you hear? i’m a bit of an arse , or so i’m told... ’ he chuckles , c o m b i n g his fingers through the tips of her hair. james had always viewed mary as a little sister , even still–– despite her being older than him by a few years. ‘ it kind of WORRIED me actually... ’ his chest took in a deep breath , his teeth delicately chewing his bottom lip. ‘ i could feel his ribs when we hugged.. it’s never been like that. he seemed–– happy enough , though. not quite sure what thats all about.... ’ he trails off before another smile comes back to his lips. ‘ nah of course not , just wanted to be sure. i do love my mop. ’

“been talking to everyone here– half of them are your family! have to keep my options open!” sirius had accepted the push, catching james’s elbow on the back of it. he was laughing too, now. he’d always laughed more at james’s reactions than he had at any joke that was being told. “so, are you and evans sympatico here? i talked to her earlier and she had some interesting information. seventh year, so you’ve been at it for over a year, then? need to know where i’m at. no spoilers.”
‘ god that’s terrifying... i’m only twenty , i’m not meant to feel so fucking’ old so fuckin’ young. ’ he GROANS , looking for some kind of table to lean on. damn time travel had his head all fuzzy. ‘ interesting information??? i mean–– yeah a year , sympatico & all that but what she tell you? ’

“i wouldn’t say once in a while with a great idea, maybe once in a lifetime… well twice since your first great idea was dating me.” she teased. “i may have a soft spot for you.” she smiled at him. “putting your pranking days to a halt? are you ill?” she joked. “i wonder how sirius will feel about that or the rest of the marauders, kind of your thing, thought it would transcend any time and space.” she laughed. “yeah.. i can understand that, at least it will show us in the dark times coming back home we have a bright future.”
‘ you hurt me , evans ! ’ steps slowed as his body hunched , james leaning all of his WEIGHT onto lily. ‘ i think i need help.. a doctor.. someone to nurse me back to health all day long. ’ laughter spilled between his lips & onto her skin as his body went slightly limp in her arms. ‘ yes , very ill. this bird i really like said a very mean thing to me , & now my heart is BROKEN. how can i commit pranks if i can’t move on? my poor friends... see what you’ve done to me , lily? ’ he can no l o n g e r hold much of his laughter back as they stumbled along. james standing back upright before they had the chance to fall on the cobblestone. ‘ a bright future yeah–– ’ and how he hoped that future would be with her.

james’s eyebrows raised, a mixture of shock, interest and pure disbelief. there was no way that this man had his name, his last name and wasn’t his grandfather. he had been wondering whether he’d ever come into contact with anyone that he knew, but he hadn’t actually been expecting to. “bloody hell! that’s insane.” he said with a grin, shaking the others’ hand, a twinkle in his eyes. “i’m james sirius. also potter. and i think i’m your grandson! that’s weird isn’t it, we’re pretty much the same age. this time travel stuff is crazy.” though he was rather enjoying it. “best? well that’s difficult. probably the time i pranked peeves, y’know the ghost, with his own personal choir that played theme music for him. he was not happy about it. or the time i sneaked a potion into my arch-nemesis’ pumpkin juice and turned his hair green.”
‘ oh merlin’s beard , GRANDSON? ’ james becoming slightly dazed as the other shook his hand ; overly excited it seemed to be meeting. while james was feeling more existential at seeing his future so plainly before him , & at his age no less. ‘ i think i need a pint... did you say james sirius? like... my best mate , sirius black? ’ that was rather interesting. his son , who some kind bloke was so QUICK to share , named his son after james and his best friend? why the bloody hell would he do that for? ‘ well , if your looks didn’t give you away to the potter line than your pranks surely would have. those are very good. peeves is a toss-- ’ james stopped himself from cursing by f e i g n i n g a quick , throaty cough. ‘ peeves deserves whatever you give him. good work.. grandson... ’

sirius wasn’t about to shy away from that, and he threw his arm around his friend. the tremor that had been at the base of his throat was gone. it was like no time had passed, and there was nothing different between them. if he’d realized that one day things might be back to ‘normal,’ his face didn’t betray that. “your mum? no. oh, no. she’s a firecracker, that one, but i wanted to fuck your dad. it’s the dimples. you know, were it not for good old uncle al, rest his merry soul… you know, who knows what i would have done for some of that sleekeazy gold?“
‘ you’re such a right cunt, ’ james laughed ; shocked by the sudden comments. the male then PUSHING sirius off & knocking him across the arm in a rough , playful manner. his glasses falling down to the edge of his nose with his light c u r l s ruffled. ‘ stop trying to fuck my family , black ! are there not enough birds & gentlemen around here to keep you from MOUNTING some member of my ancestry? you’re such a tosser , seriously. ’ tears glossed in his eyes , chest in slight pain from laughing so hard.

Mia’s nose wrinkled and she decided that she didn’t like this turn of events. It wasn’t that long ago that Fleamont was in her position and made to guess things that had happened. Karma and universe was certainly playing a bit of a joke on her now. “Oh mum,” She dropped her usual southern drawl to mimic his posh British one before she chuckled. “I would probably kill Monty if we were with anything like our names,” she said and tapped her finger against her chin.
how weird anyone would find this had the situation not affected everyone they knew. a GROWN man calling someone of his own age ‘mum’ ––– so bizarre & quite , utterly hilarious. ‘ well my name happens to be a very good one... if i do declare so myself , ’ the end of his sentence m i m i c k i n g her southern accent as she had mimicked his own. it was truly amazing to see her in her youth. james noticing NOTHING had really changed over her twenty years.

Mary’s eyes closed for a moment. James made a small gesture with helping her warm up but it meant the world to her. She truly had missed him. “I did,” she replied, “I’m almost twenty four in my time.” Her nose wrinkled as she spoke and she shook her head. It had been a long time since they both were young and carefree.
‘ twenty-four ??? by merlin , you’re so old ! ’ james always one to tease those he CARES about. the prankster never missing the opportunity for a little jest. ‘ let me just say–– you look much better than sirius does. but don’t tell him that , that bugger would curse me mean. ’ his friends from the future. how curious they seemed to have changed. it setting his mind off into a wander. ‘ do i still look good at twenty-four? i’m not bald am i? ’

“ah but the curls look smashing on you.” she mused, reaching out to gently ruffle his hair. “that’s because i love you. you know this.” she smoothed out her hair once he was done. after all, it was only fair. “at least we’re all here together… granted i’m not sure what “we’re all here” consists of at the moment. i will say i’ve seen my fair share of friendly and well…. not so friendly familiar faces.”
‘ they do , don’t they? ’ he laughed full-heartedly , his hand coming up to his chest before straightening his glasses. ‘ i do know that–– i love you too , mar. ’ reaching forward , he EMBRACED her in a hug ; giving her a big squeeze & another pat on the head. ‘ it just means at least we aren’t alone. if we are stuck i’d rather have you and the others to be STUCK with. has anyone been giving you trouble? ’ slight concern plaguing his features.

Al stopped when the other walked up to him. He was still a little surprised and a bit in a daze from waking up to all this craziness. He couldn’t help but think this man sounded exactly like his older brother. That was something he would always say to his mother after he had done something he wasn’t supposed to. He shook his head and put his hands up, “Honestly.. I don’t even know who you are, mate. I’m trying to figure everything going on myself. One moment I was getting ready for bed and then the next thing I knew, I woke up in my dorm except everything was different.”
fuck , he really needed to find some people from his own timeline. the constant introducing of oneself was beginning to become rather exhausting. ‘ the name is rather UNIMPORTANT by now. so many names & faces–– too many i can’t even remember anymore. but yeah , same for me mate. so where are you from? past or future? ’

“you know what, that sounds like a great idea.” she said to him with a kind smile. “i can try to pull some strings to get you an invite since you are a pretty great wizard, even though you don’t exactly show it all the time because creating some of the pranks you do are pretty intelligent.” she added. in this moment, everything just felt like nothing has changed; walking through hogsmeade with james, talking and smiling, it was just like they were back at home. she loved how easily james could make her feel at ease whenever she was around him. “it would be nice to be able to see you in class, i mean, there are so many new people around, hogwarts is pretty interesting with all of them.”
‘ i tend to have ONE every once in a while , ’ he turned , a proud digit pushing his thinned , round classes up the bridge of his nose. ‘ how very kind of you miss evans to try & get me an invite. i’d be honored–– also , i must point out that i think my pranking days will be halted considering our predicament. ’ as much as it p a i n e d him to say , james had slowly began to figure in that mind of his that laying low was the best course during this time. ‘ i guess you’re right that it’d be interesting. i don’t know.. what if we meet like... i don’t know if my BRAIN could handle it all. ’

“M’fine,” Mary replied. She figured that she could let James in on everything that happened, everything that she had been dealing with but she figured that was something for another time. “I’m just cold and you’re a walking furnace. And this era has terrible heating.” Mary’s nose wrinkled at the mention of Peter. She didn’t want to find him knowing what she knew now. There’s no telling what she would do if she saw him again but it definitely be slow and painful.
james took her word , shrugging the unsettling feeling off as an upset stomach or a HUNGRY one. gentle fingers w r a p p e d around her shoulders , rubbing her arm up & down to give some relief from the cold. ‘ i agree... so far , nothing has impressed me so far about this time. not that ours was much better truthfully–– ’ dark times it was back home , but at least it was home. ‘ did you come from the future like sirius? ’

Euphemia was a clever girl. Top marks in all her classes. So she could guess what he was going to say before he had stopped himself. He looked so much like Fleamont that it made her heart soar. Him standing in front of her gave her so much hope, he would never know how much. Her fingers curled around his hand and she flashed a charming smile. “You know your friend didn’t give me your name,” she remarked, “so I’m really hoping you remember you remember your manners or I’m going to have to remember to double up on your etiquette lessons in the future.”
a laugh , cheerful & relieved , bursts from his lungs. james was never able to get one past her–– regardless of her time it seemed. mum was ALWAYS one step ahead. ‘ my fr––? ah , sirius... ’ james couldn’t complete his thought , the boy just l a u g h i n g as he recalled their own conversation. she didn’t know him well now , but that kid was going to become like one of her own. best not to ruin the surprise , james thought. ‘ oh , mum ’ he whines & SQUEEZES her hand ‘ but you are the one who names me... so deep down you must know it already. though , i’d love to hear what my name coudla been. come on , guess ! ’

“yes, yes, a grade a tosser. you know, i think that that idiom might even be more hurtful for wizards than it is for muggles. you aren’t even calling me the best tosser of the bunch. you’re calling me an extremely mid-level tosser.” he nodded. “i’m not proud of what i’m about to say, but your mum kept it… tight. i mean, i definitely put the moves on before she introduced herself. miracle of nature, that one. see where you get your looks, jamie-boy.”
‘ there’s always room for improvement , love ’ a strong hand claps the other on the back ; his lips thinning into a SMUG smirk. god , this felt good. for a moment james was afraid he was alone in all this. a single piece of a whole set traversing alone was a scary thing. james feeling relieved in the k n o w l e d g e sirius would be here along for the ride. ‘ shut the fuck up man– i always knew you fancied my mum ; i knew it. her baking was NEVER that great but you always ate it up too eagerly. ’

james’ nonchalant look turned quickly to one of confusion when someone he was almost certain he didn’t know began calling over to him. “hello ?” he raised an eyebrow. his confusion only grew as the man continued. he looked eerily similar to james’s dad, and yet he knew that it wasn’t him, so who was it ? “i’m sorry mate, you’re talking to me like i should know who you are. i don’t think i do.” he told the other with a frown. “you too ? honestly. i’m surprised no one’s blamed me for this whole thing yet either ! i’m quite the prankster where i’m from, but i never mess up. so wasn’t me either.”
how WEIRD it was to be in a place where so many of the students walking around the halls were from different times–– so many unfamiliar faces but always the same look upon their faces while headed to class. ‘ you must be from a different time then. so what is it , the past? the future? what year is it where you’re from? and who is the head of the ministry of magic–- that should be VERY interesting. oh–– i’m james by the way. james potter ! ’ he held out his hand to the other for a good ole’ gentleman’s shake. ‘ really? as am i. whats your best prank? ’

Mary smirked as she watched him squirm away and let her hand fall back to her side. She knew she made her point. “I suppose I can let you sit with me,” Mary said with a laugh before she simply rested her cheek on his shoulder. “I’m happy you’re here too, James, more than you know.”
‘ is everything alright , love? ’ he asked , eyes looking down at her as she rested upon his shoulder. thinking about it now , sirius had the same kind of mood when they first saw one another. it wasn’t necessarily concerning to james ( could be hormones for all he knew ) , but it was a different kind of SHIFT in the air. ‘ lily & sirius are here too , ya know? so is marlene. all we have to do is find remus & pettigrew now. the whole gang... ’

Euphemia turned when she heard someone speak to her. Her brow furrowed because at first, she thought he was Monty. But then, she started to notice the differences between this young man and her husband. Monty would never let his hair grow as long as this man did. “I’m glad to know that this situation has nothing to do with you, sir,” she replied and then extended her hand, “but I don’t believe I’ve had to pleasure to make your acquaintance. Euphemia Potter.”
the moment she stepped closer , he knew. sirius had mentioned he had seen her so james was prepared to make contact , but it was still so shocking. it was his mother. at the AGE he had only seen her in pictures. he had seen her just over a week ago. older but still as beautiful as ever. reaching out , he took her hand. she didn’t know it was him , but how would she? james wasn’t even a c o n c e p t in their mind yet. clearing his throat , he finally shook her hand. ‘ i know who you are.. i’m your s––’ he couldn’t complete the sentence , the words getting stuck in his throat.
