Prongs in Hiding

[James has spent the greater part of the time as Prongs in the forest where he can't be asked if he's doing okay or get yelled it. It's just easier than feeling like he is going to shatter into unfixable pieces at any second.

He'd at least gone back to sleep a little in a flat but is heading back to the forest]

[There's a loud crack and Sirius and Remus appear in the middle of James's flat. If the young mister Potter cares to notice they're holding hands and not looking as though the world is about to collapse on them. Remus looks him over once before speaking] Oi Potter! Where'd you think you're going? You better sit your arse back down because we have to talk to you.

[James turns slowly around to look at them, looks shattered, hollowly] have you guys gone back in time or something?

We might've run into a few dozen incarnations of ourselves and Remus' son [Sirius shrugs], but we learned a thing or two along the way, so sit down, shut it, and listen.

[sits] I met my grandson

[Remus makes various hand motions that means they have to sit and waits until they do.]

Right, I am very aware James that you are confused and maybe conflicted and you need help and you have questions and we are perfectly happy to help you, all right? We've been through it all before too so we know how horrible it all feels.

But this bastard here [Remus tilts his head at Sirius] he belongs with me. I love him very much and I want what we have to be special. If there's something more between you then we'll need to talk about it like, well the rational adults that we really aren't, but you can't - um [Remus just looks mortified for a moment] you can't have him unless I let you. I don't know where I stand yet and I'm still confused about it all and it's something we need to work through so yes, um.

[and then awkward!Remus is back but at least he totally attempted to be a strong man about it]

[James glances at Sirius, there may be the tiniest hint of a smile at Remus' rambling talk, goes back to looking at a perfectly good bit of carpet] I'm not...[sighs] look I'm sorry...and well I'm not even going there again...he's yours and well...I can't be confused [gives up trying to make sense]

What James is saying is that he's trying to get Lily back and can't be getting involved with us if he is going to do that.

So what we're going to do [looks meaningfully at Remus] is help him convince Lily that he has seen the error of his ways so he can win her back.

[Remus grins] I'm sure we can think of something, we are, after all, the Masters of the Perfect Plot. [he turns to James] Lily does really like you, we just need her to see that you're not as much as a twat as you let on.

[miserably] She says I hurt her more than Snape did when he called her a mudblood. It's going to take something extra special to come back from below Snape

[identity profile] sonofthestars.livejournal.com 2010-01-31 03:48 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, but Snape did not have us, now did he? We'll figure this out, Prongs.

I already sent her some roses for her birthday that a little birdie told me she thought were from you. And she smiled. All hope is not lost.

She knows they aren't from me now. I gave her, her present and yeah...it was awkward...sorry I'm just seeing impending doom

[Sirius shoots Moony a look for help]

[Remus rolls his eyes] Honestly you are both useless. She doesn't want a physical gift from you Prongs, she wants proof that you're serious about her. She needs to see you completely and utterly sure about it. Leave it to me and I'll get back to you, all right?

I've tried talking Remus...[nods] think you can help before the world ends?

[identity profile] boyofthemoon.livejournal.com 2010-01-31 12:52 pm (UTC)(link)
[Remus just grins at him] I think I can come up with something. Wouldn't do for the world to end just yet, would it?

[identity profile] prongs-jamesp.livejournal.com 2010-01-31 12:54 pm (UTC)(link)
or any time soon [sigh] what supposed to happen here happened with my grandson...seriously...I may just have created the bad ending
