How to play
① Tag in
② Go to RNG and roll 1-10. That's your scenario!
③ Tag around!
④ Have fun. :)

Scenarios

① Transfiguration. Pay attention and maybe your teacup will turn into a whole rat instead of just a furry piece of nonsense! Ask someone for help.
② Potions. Watch out for Snape. How's that nastily complicated brew coming along, by the way? Looks like one of you screwed it up!
③ Charms. A relatively easy class ... when your friend isn't bugging you. The trouble is that you're both having too much fun together to concentrate.
④ History of Magic. ... IT'S JUST SO MUCH FUN. Spice up the lesson with your buddy's help!
⑤ Par-tay in the Common Room. Who the heck knows why it's going on, but you're not missing out on this for anything and neither is your friend! Who cares if they're not from the same House, right?
⑥ Quidditch. Training or playing an official inter-house match? Showing off or just trying to stay airborne? Good luck and don't fall off your broom!
⑦ Detention. Shelling out manky old exoskeletons bare-handed? Re-alphabetizing an entire section of the library all night long? Maybe you're unfortunate enough to have been grouped together in the Forbidden Forest.
⑧ The Astronomy Tower. Whether a late night class or a romantic evening together, the stars are beautiful.
⑨ Hogsmeade. You have a whole day here with your friends! Where will you go and what are you up to?
⑩ The Great Hall. Breakfast? Lunch? Dinner? A feast sure sounds nice, be it for Halloween or Christmas. Celebrate together!

[ omg i love both, to be honest, let's say throw them both in detention, we can always end said detention and take it to the aftermath if we fancy! ]

"They realize that sticking us in the library for detention isn't punishment for you, right," Sirius remarked, attempting a conversation after sighing (perhaps a bit dramatically) for the third time that evening. He was standing at one of the bookshelves that he should have been alphabetizing at that very moment but instead found himself distracted by a book on transfiguration.

It had been an utterly brilliant stroke of luck to be sent here, even she had to admit that - at least internally. On the outside the best Sirius got was a stony glare from Lily, who had to lean around the small stack of books she'd selected to keep her company for the next few hours.

"It's still a punishment to me," she began flatly, her nose wrinkling in disdain as she looked at him pointedly. "Don't worry."

He didn't need to look at her to know what kind of look she was giving him. Sirius knew her well enough by now that he anticipated that! Besides. It was technically his fault they were here in the first place.

"I've apologized! Twice! Once with your favorite dessert," he said as he looked at her and saw that pointed look. Didn't they say the way to anyone's heart is with food? Or was that for just him? "I'm sorry. The frog spleen wasn't supposed to end up in your cauldron, I promise. My aim was really off today." Which was, probably, one of the most upsetting parts of his day. The other part was landing them both in detention.

"You know you sound more torn up about your spleen than being stuck here together," Lily said tartly, tugging a book closer to her only to flip open the front cover with a scowl.

"We'll be here for hours, I suggest you find something to read, I'm certainly not going to waste all this time keeping you company." She wrinkled her nose, "and the apple tart was lovely, but you suddenly becoming less of a wanker would be far lovelier."

"Because there are much worse people to be spending detention with. Trust me, I'd know," Sirius said, tossing her an amused look. He shut the transfiguration book he'd been flipping through and sat it on top of the shelf.

He hummed, shelving another book that was part of his stack into its correct place. "Being a wanker is part of being a Black. It's our first lesson, in fact." Sirius picked up the transfiguration book again and walked over, sitting down in a chair close by her stack. Is he deflecting? Probably. "I just know I'm the reason I'm keeping you away from your studies."

Although he said it, Sirius wasn't going to deny (if only to himself) that he liked spending time with her. One on one and without James around.

"I'm certain there are, but I'm having a great deal of difficulty thinking of any of them," her bright eyes were narrowed into slits as she watched him moving around, leaning back in her seat when he settled at the table she'd claimed for herself.

"You are, actually, the reason, and I wish you'd do something to change that. Don't you have homework of your own to do?"

"Snape, Roger, Nott...," Sirius starting rambling off and if there was an unusual pause before Snape's name then it was because Sirius knew Lily would throw a book at his head for calling him something else!

Sirius flipped open the book and hummed. "Would you believe me if I said I already completed it?" Except for the History of Magic essay that he was pushing off until the very last second. Writing it put him to sleep as easily as Binn's lectures did!

"There isn't anything wrong with Snape's company if you don't mind," she said curtly but did not contradict him on the matter of Roger and Nott at all. They were absolute wankers and as much as she detested the idea of losing time in her day listening to the prattlings of Sirius Black, being stuck anywhere with Roger or Nott was far worse a prospect.

Carefully paging through the book in front of her she blinked in surprise when he mentioned that he had already completed most of the work he had to do. "Bullocks. You did all of it?" Lily scoffed, narrowing her bright green eyes at Sirius. "When do you have the time? I thought you were a full-time menace Sirius."

"Perhaps for you but he and I don't see eye to eye," Sirius said and it was putting it mildly. There were a handful of people in the castle that Sirius could say that he truly enjoyed being around and most of them were in his dorm and sitting here in the library with him. He also enjoyed the company of one of his cousins who wasn't a complete basketcase.

Sirius lifted his gaze from the text in front of him and raised an eyebrow. "I'm almost hurt that you would doubt it," he said with a grin. "Except for History of Magic. The essays put me to sleep as quickly as Binns." He was getting tired simply thinking about it! "In detention! You know, it is the prime time to do said homework. Usually. Unless you get stuck with Filch."

"Really Sirius," Lily said dryly, attempting to seem as though he were telling her something she didn't know. "You've been so subtle about your disdain for Severus, I had no idea." He had not, and she definitely had.

Looking up from her book she tilted her head, looking at him. "You know I know I'm very much in the minority, but I think Professor Binns is quite fascinating." Lily was notorious for remaining alert in the ghost's class.

"I know, it's simply hard to believe that someone like me and someone like him could ever disagree on anything," he said before sending her an amused look. Much to his family's disappointment no doubt, he was the least subtle. For the most part, he didn't hide how he was feeling about anyone or anything.

He snorted in amusement. "Oh we know, and I find that positively impressive. I'm not sure how you do it. How you manage to stay awake and alert when he drones on and on... and on."

"I assumed you'd be inseparable," she agreed dryly, giving him a shrug as though it were some great mystery. "You could stand to be less dreadful to him Sirius, it's really very childish of you," Lily knew Severus would loathe her, sticking up for him like this, but she didn't care that much about his temporary dismay when it came to speaking up.

Rolling her eyes at his description of Binn's class Lily forgot herself long enough to stick her foot out and lightly kick his leg beneath the table. "It isn't droning, it's," her bright eyes narrowed as she searched her mind for the right word. "A well-seasoned retelling."

"Yeah, like oil and water," he said equally as dryly, then glanced down at the transfiguration text in front of him. He wracked his brain thinking of when this grudge against Snape started. "He started it, really - on the first train to Hogwarts. And when I stood up for James, I became Public Enemy #2."

And Sirius was just stubborn enough to not end his childish behavior. Besides. It didn't help that he hadn't been sorted like every single Black before him.

At the kick to his leg, his mouth curled up, and stuck his foot out to lightly kick her foot in retaliation. "That's a very nice way of saying droning. He does it so well that many of our peers can catch up on their sleep in the meantime."

Scoffing, she rolled her eyes and leaned back in her seat, crossing her arms as she eyed him. "Oh, well, in that case," she began, her words dripping in sarcasm before she finished with a shake of her head, not having the words for how much of a stubborn idiot he was.

"Why? Don't you have anything better to do with your time than ruin someone else's day?" Lily lifted a hand, waving it in an errant gesture as she spoke. "Surely somewhere in the whole expanse of the castle, there's a better way for you to spend your time than bothering people just trying to go about their business."

She kicked him back, gently.

Sirius snorted in amusement. There was no denying that he enjoyed the way she bantered with him, which was why he attempted to rile her up so much.

He tilted his head and considered her words for a moment. "Well, there are certainly better ways of spending my time but there are only so many women... or men who I find appealing," he said, sending her a wink before nudging her foot with his.

"Well, perhaps you ought to find someone willing to put up with all the rubbish you talk to snog you," she had meant to sound more dismissive and less challenging, and the fact that she nudged his foot in return certainly didn't help matters. She had started out trying to convey that, that person was not her.

Lily pushed her chair back abruptly, snapping the book she had been reading shut before she looked away from him and down the rows of shelves on her right. "Right then. If I come back and you've found someone to snog, please try not to do it on my homework."

Giving him a prim nod Lily took off, eager to get lost in the stacks, naively believing being in close quarters with large boring books might act like garlic to a vampire in the cinema and keep him from following while distracting her from the idea that maybe if he did follow after her it wouldn't be the end of the world.

Sirius hummed consideringly as he watched her. The way she nudged his foot made him grin. "Maybe I should," he mused and watched as she pushed back her seat and stood.

He gave her a moment before he pushed back his seat and stood from the table. Slowly, he followed in her wake and made the appearance of looking at one of the very large boring books that appeared to be on some herbology theory. "But you realize, that you and I are the only ones in this library," he said, slowly moving closer to where she stood. "Right," he asked, walking in closer but not nearly touching her just yet.

In the middle of reaching out to pull a book off of the shelf, Lily turned as he approached, only partially surprised that he'd come after her at all. "There's Madame Pince," she offered helpfully, a small smile tugging at the corners of her mouth.

Letting her hand fall from the book she turned to face him, taking just half of a step towards him, torn between not wanting to back down and shirk away, and her own uncertainty over the situation and why it was she kept poking at it, however figuratively. "You'd be lovely together I'm sure, she'd do wonders for your organization," she continued, letting herself get just a little bit closer to him.

"She's a charming woman but not exactly my type," he said with an amused grin. "She doesn't call me a wanker as often as my ego craves."

Sirius took a step, two steps closer to her. Although he was well aware that one of his best mates had the biggest crush on her, Sirius was unable to help himself from feeling much the same way about her. He backed her up against the bookshelf and rest one of his hands on the shelf behind her. "I just may be a hopeless case on the organization part..."

"Your ego does need constant pecking at, you're far too full of bluster," she said, her voice going a little quieter as she let him back her up against the books behind her.

Lily's eyes darted over to his hand on the shelf beside her head before she looked back at his face, raising her eyebrows challengingly. "Only hopeless in the organization part? I think it's more dire than that Sirius." Without thinking she reached out, resting a hand against his side, not quite pulling him closer to her, but certainly not pushing him away by any extent.

"It really does," Sirius agreed, his voice also becoming a little quieter as he watched her face closely. Sirius was a lot of things but if he noticed any sign of genuine unease, he'd back off in a heartbeat.

But there wasn't and when she rested a hand on his side, Sirius took a step closer. Although he desperately wanted to say something to that sass, he wanted to do something different. He was just leaning in to kiss her when someone called out and effectively interrupted them.

"Ms. Evans, Mr. Black - that's enough for one night. Pack your things and get back to your House," Madame Pince said, her voice coming closer from where he could only assume was a couple of stacks over.

It was like she knew what they were about to get up to! And Sirius honestly wouldn't put it past the librarian! Sirius watched Lily and stepped away from her quickly. Without a single word, they both walked in opposite directions.

For once, detention had been enjoyable!
