Night time

[maraudings]

[James is sprawled over the sofa, with the map of the Nexus on his stomach. He's just completed the last of the tracer spells so it's ready to show off. He's fallen asleep.

Behind James a new door has opened in the wall. He's magically expanded the flat again and the door has a sign on it saying Moony's Den. The room is completely blank apart from a framed photo of the three of them, a stack of cds ranging through the decades and cd player.

James twitches in his sleep. Uneasy in his dreams, chasing a shadow that won't let him near his friends. The shadow turns to him and starts to envelop him until he can no longer see them. He cries out]

Oh. Yeah. Actually that's a fair point. He's gotten *really* into books in the Nexus. It surprised me.

[prongs-jamesp.livejournal.com]

It's starting to scare me, I think someone swapped his brain for a different one

[lupin-remusj.livejournal.com]

[Remus shrugs.] He says he's always liked reading.

[prongs-jamesp.livejournal.com]

Yeah. never seen that before

[lupin-remusj.livejournal.com]

Maybe we're unobservant.

[prongs-jamesp.livejournal.com]

No, can't be not when spend all day with him

[lupin-remusj.livejournal.com]

[A pause.] What's your explanation, then?

[prongs-jamesp.livejournal.com]

that...he's changed

[lupin-remusj.livejournal.com]

But why? [Sounding very slightly frustrated.] You've been here with him all this time.

[prongs-jamesp.livejournal.com]

He...I don't know! He's got further and further away from me

[lupin-remusj.livejournal.com]

[He doesn't know what to do, so he hugs James instead.] I'm sorry.

[prongs-jamesp.livejournal.com]

[James rests in against Remus] I'm sorry too, you came back to it all

[lupin-remusj.livejournal.com]

[A little smile.] I went looking for the two of you. Even if it's not perfect, I'd rather be not perfect with you than be missing you.

[prongs-jamesp.livejournal.com]

Yeah but we should all be having more fun

[lupin-remusj.livejournal.com]

I agree. So let's you and I see what we can do about that, okay?

[prongs-jamesp.livejournal.com]

I sense a Moony plan bubbling

[lupin-remusj.livejournal.com]

Not so much. Nothing in particular anyway, but more fun is definitely what we need.

[prongs-jamesp.livejournal.com]

There must be a rule about being happy most of the time

[lupin-remusj.livejournal.com]

The rule is that we're supposed to be. And from now on, we'll try to be. You and I will sort that.

[prongs-jamesp.livejournal.com]

Yup because we are an awesome team and I might have plan of my own

[lupin-remusj.livejournal.com]

Oh really? What's your plan then?

[prongs-jamesp.livejournal.com]

Something fun and flirty if you won't mind

[lupin-remusj.livejournal.com]

Tell me what it is and I'll tell you if I mind.

[prongs-jamesp.livejournal.com]

[James smiles] well it does involve a few kisses

[lupin-remusj.livejournal.com]

[Raises an eyebrow.] You want to kiss my boyfriend?
