[werewolfoflondon]

[Remus catches himself against the counter after Lily's blast, sulking at the pasta that's blown out of the pot along with it.]

...your aim's a bit off, Lily.

[bespell]

Oh, I'm sorry. The view's wonky from here.

[She doesn't tuck her wand back, still holding it in half a threat.] I expected Black to act like an uncivilized heathen, but you too, Remus?

[sothis_rising]

Oh he's a complete heathen Lils.

[He made his way over to the couch and flops onto the couch.]

Downright lecherousness.

[werewolfoflondon]

[Remus glares around the corner at Sirius, then huffs and goes back to attempting a meal preparation.]

I am not a heathen.

[bespell]

I know you're not, dear. Not with the king of heathens over... There.

[It's hard to clean up when she can't tell the damage, so she settles for retrieving the vegetables from the fridge, before yelling over her shoulder.] Would you help clean up, at least? The sooner we eat, the sooner you get to molest him in peace.

[sothis_rising]

I suppose.

[He makes his way back into the kitchen.]

You know, you're taking Lily knowing about us rather well. I'm proud.

[He leans over and gives Remus a quick kiss of approval.]

[werewolfoflondon]

Sirius Orion Black, if you do not get out of this kitchen and let me cook in peace, I will splinch you navel to nose.

[Lovingly, of course.

And before Sirius is whacked with the spoon again, he gets a quick, sweet return kiss to his cheek.]

Have some respect for her, really. Lily is a woman with needs. Needs that are not being met. She doesn't need our exploits dangled in front of her.

[bespell]

What... And what is that supposed to mean, exactly? [Lily drops a half peeled lettuce onto the table, head bowed. She doesn't look in the direction of either them.] I'll thank you not to pull me into this, or feel sorry for me. That's just mean.

[sothis_rising]

[Sirius makes his way over to Lily and squeezes her shoulders. He understands how acutely it hurts not to have James around. He feels it too.]

I think he means dinner.

[werewolfoflondon]

[Well... no, he hadn't, but he'll roll with that.]

Bugger, I need more pasta. [Remus sighs and unties his apron, tossing it back onto the counter as he makes his way for the door. And then pauses. Wait. He can just conjure that now, can't he? He's gotten so used to living as a Muggle, suddenly having access to even greater magics than before is still a bit jarring to him.]

Ah. Right, I can just... [Remus peeks into one of the cabinets, and grabs a new box of pasta, which allows him to set about his tasks again. Sans apron, thank you.]

[bespell]

[She recognizes the sounds of pacing and movement around her, the trip to the door and back, and stiffens slightly at the reassuring hand on her shoulder. After a moment, Lily reaches to pat Sirius's hand in thanks or acknowledgment, before reaching for the head of lettuce that's rolled away from her.]

I'm sorry for messing up the kitchen.

[sothis_rising]

I started it.

[It's weird. Sirius feels so comfortable with Lily after everything the pair have been through. She's one of the Marauders through and through, she's a sister he never thought he'd have and really never expected to want.

He lets his head rest on her shoulder.]

Far be it from me to be the reassuring one, but we'll figure out how to get that eyesight of yours back. Till then, use it as an excuse to grope Prongs more.

[werewolfoflondon]

That is a very good excuse. I, for one, would grope Prongs every chance I got, were I incapable of sight.

[It's a shame Lily can't see his smirk. With Remus' dry sense of humor, it was difficult to tell whether he was joking or not, save for the fact that he could never keep a straight face.]

[bespell]

Would you now, Remus? Should I be looking out for that sort of thing? [She doesn't shrug Sirius's head off her shoulder, contented with the odd attention.] He's not soft enough to mistake him for my pillow.

[sothis_rising]

If Rems takes Prongs I'll just woo your toes off.

[He's only teasing of course. There's no way he and Lily would work.]

[werewolfoflondon]

As if I could! No, Prongs is quite taken with redheads. And breasts. Neither of which I possess, I'm afraid. It seems you're stuck with me, Sirius. And Lily with James. Such a sad state of affairs.

[bespell]

Good, because that sounded like a threat coming from Black. I wouldn't want the responsibility. [Lily gently lifts his head off her shoulder.] Although it is pity. I'm pretty sure you would look absolutely ravishing with breasts, although I'm not quite s ure about the red hair.

[sothis_rising]

Aww, you mean you don't want your toes wooed off Lily?

[He pushed off away from her.]

I'd do a better job then Prongs. Ask Rems.
