|  Prongs and Padfoot Play
FYI: McGonagall doesn't know the animals are James and Sirius... she just knows they are out of bed!
37. Animagus
It wasn’t even Remus’ time of the month when James and Sirius decided to go stroll the grounds one night. Just outside of the castle walls the two young men disappeared and in their places stood a great shaggy dog and a majestic stag.
As though they could hear one another’s thoughts the great beasts took off toward the forest at a casual pace, not unlike their typical canter.
A great shrieking voice sounded from a window high atop the castle wall. “Sirius Black and James Potter! I am no fool! Detention!” screeched McGonagall!
She wouldn't find them now! Snicker!

| Pajama Predicament
98. Pajamas
The common room was still abuzz with the sounds of celebration. Gryffindor had defeated Slytherin in the first Quidditch match of the year.
As per usual Sirius and James were making more ruckus than anyone else. There they were jumping on the furniture and such.
Spying Peter being his usual mousy self Sirius got that famous mischievious grin. Charging across the room to undoubtedly cause some sort of embarrassment to their “friend” he was suddenly suspended in the air by one ankle his pajama bottoms had split up the back as he was heaved upward. Remus chuckled, wand held aloft.

| Compliment
43. Headmaster
Sirius and James sat in the chairs opposite Dumbledore’s desk, legs swinging and heads down. Albus had his eyes trained on the boys and while they looked anywhere but at the man’s face he had the slightest grin..
Headmaster: “Sirius, what would make you think Peter needed to drink that Swelling Solution you brewed?”
Sirius: “Well, sir… James said it would be funny.”
James: “Did I say to dump the entire phial in his pumpkin juice, Padfo- Sirius?”
Headmaster: “I think you two owe him an apology once Madame Pomfrey sorts him out. You may go… And Sirius… nice potioneering.”

| Sirius Problem
This one is dedicated to my buddeh Dee!! Hope you like it!
61. Kiss
Sirius spotted a new girl in the... *blinkblink* library, of all places. Remus had dragged him there so he could study. Of course Sirius was more interested in the “view” than studying.
Seeing the girl bat her eyelashes and smile provocatively Padfoot decided to follow after her when she left the corner he was in.
Moments later he returns, odd look on his face, lost for words… which is unusual for him…
Remus asks, “What happened? Did she slap you or something?” barely holding in laughter.
Sirius responds, “Her name is Dee… she kissed me and ran away.”
Uh-oh…. LOVE.

| By the Light of the Moon
18. Whomping Willow
A black shaggy dog, a magnificent stag, and…a rat… cantered across the grounds of the Hogwarts School. They approached a certain tree at the same time a great howl pierced the night. The stag and the dog exchanged a glance and in that moment a huge branch crashed to the ground.
Where the stag once stood there was now a boy. “Bloody Hell, Wormtail! Hit the knob before we’re all killed.” Shouted James Potter as the dirty rat took off toward the tree.
The tree froze; James transformed once more and off went the animals to keep the werewolf company.

| Peter's First Mistake
This is for Jer... per his random request  39. Duel
Peter was dangling from his ankle in the Forbidden Forest, his face full of boils and tears streaming down. “Re-Rem-Remus… please make him stop. I said I was sorry.” Peter stuttered. Remus looked on with doubt in his eyes. “James, may-maybe we should just let him be. He did apologize.” Remus interjected.
James held his wand tighter and glared at Peter. “A duel is no place to bring Lily’s name up, that is what got him into this state.” James said through clenched teeth.
The duel had been planned to help Wormtail, but he made his first mistake. Lily’s name…

| Christmastime for the Marauders
Image thanks to Tailz @ Iconically Inclined; 49. Yule Ball
Remus straightened the front of his dress robes and wiped the sweat from the palms of his hands as he waited for James and Sirius to join him.
James’ typically messy hair lay flat on his head and Sirius was looking quite dashing as they descended the stairs.
"Alright Moony, ready for the Yule Ball?” Sirius asked with a smirk.
Remus was beyond nervous and the gift that lay in his pocket seemed to weigh two tons. Hopefully Lily would see that he really appreciated her friendship and compassion.
Spying the lovely Lily he handed her the gift “Merry Christmas”

| Domino Effect
9. Defense Against the Dark Arts
James, Sirius, Remus, and Peter all stood watching as other students attempted to block one another’s spells with shield charms. Remus had taught the other four the charm long before now. How else could they remain unscathed after all of the messes they had caused at school?
Noticing Peter was otherwise occupied watching a certain girl in the class Sirius nudged James and raised his wand. Muttering an incantation that caused Peter to be suddenly dangling from his ankle Sirius did not notice that Remus had just cast a full body bind curse on him.
Sirius and Peter… topple down. | |

| Attack of the Flying Book
14. Hogwarts, A History
Sitting under his favorite tree by the Lake, Remus Lupin was thumbing through his copy of Hogwarts, A History. He was enjoying the warm air on his face after being stuck inside the Shrieking Shack for what seemed an eternity.
He could hear the telltale signs that Spring was there. Laughter floating through the air, boys shouting and playing in the courtyard. Remus was lost in his own little world and did not notice James and Sirius approaching.
The other Marauders, smirks upon their faces. “Hey Moony we just saw…” before he finished WHAM, big old book to the head. | |

| Running for Their Lives
53. Chase
There were flashes of red and green going off all around them. Sirius’s motorcycle soared higher and higher. They were being chased by Death Eaters all across the English skies.
James yelled over the roar of the engine “Harry is starting to babble some.” Sirius rolls his eyes “That’s great and all but is this the right time to talk about it? Facing death here Prongs”
There was a huge bang and all of a sudden Remus was at their side mounted on a racing broom looking more ragged than ever. “Nice of you to join us, Moony.”
“Shut up” | |

50. Boggart
Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor, R.J. Lupin... That was still a hard pill to swallow for Moony. Shaking himself from his reverie he smiled as he watched Harry interact with Ron and Hermione whilst awaiting his turn to face the boggart.
Seeing his face gave him a great pang of sadness. He was his father made over. Being in this classroom teaching the lesson took him back to many years ago with a room full of very different people.
James stepped up and the boggart turned into Kreacher. “R-Ri-r-Riddikulus” he stammered. Sirius snickered.
Harry’s turn came. Oh no. | |

| A Toast
As per Jools' request!!  100. Homework
The children were all looking miserable in the confines of 12 Grimmauld Place...except for Hermione. She was busying herself with homework while shooting weary glances at her friends.
Sirius was struck by how very much the trio reminded him of James, Lily, and himself. Lily was the rule abiding teacher’s pet whilst James and Sirius were more concerned with other ventures outside of the classroom. The Marauders had done their share of mischief making at Hogwarts but these children would see more trouble than he cared to dwell upon.
As though they were thinking alike Remus raised his glass “Marauders” | |

| Escape
Another of Jeremie's random requests 78. Author's Choice- Buckbeak
As Sirius sulked in his attic with Buckbeak he frequently thought of days passed. He found his thoughts often wandered back to those carefree days as a troublemaker at Hogwarts. Seeing Harry made it happen more often than usual. He was so like his father that it made his heart ache.
If only he could relive those days…
“Come on Padfoot get under the cloak and we can go nick some food from the kitchen.” James told him with a crooked grin.
They were so cocky, so confident…
Remus watched on with his disapproval evident on his face.
Peter squirmed.

11. History of Magic
The Marauders sat in the dreaded History of Magic classroom with looks of horror on their faces. Professor Binns was lecturing about Goblin wars and the boys could barely hold their eyes open anymore.
James had begun to levitate people’s bags while they weren’t watching, Sirius was making eyes at the girl next to him, and Peter was being mousy as usual. Remus on the other hand was taking notes and shooting looks of contempt at the others.
“Pssst. Moony. Will you loosen up?” Sirius whispered to him.
Remus shot him another contemptuous look right as his book zoomed away. | |

42. Portraits
Peter Pettigrew’s mousy eyes darted from side to side as he stood, after curfew, in front of the portrait of Sir Cadogan. The portrait was as mad as a hatter and continued to try and run Peter out of the castle.
The other portraits began to awaken at the sound of “Braggart, Rogue, Leave my castle at once.” As shouted by Cadogan.
Pettigrew tried to tell him, “I was sent here to find out where the One Eyed Witch passage is. I was told you knew”
More screams and threats and other portraits joined in.
Sirius and James laughing… Hysterically. | |

3. Transfiguration
Minerva McGonagall watched on in shock as James Potter and Sirius Black worked hard during her class. Never would she have thought it possible for those two to put effort into much more than trickery. Close to smiling she watched as James turned his frog to a water goblet.
“10 points to Gryffindor Mr. Potter for being the first to change your animal.” McGonagall said with a certain amount of pride.
Sirius watched and listened closely and changed his animal right after James.
“Hey if we keep up in Transfiguration it’ll be no time till we can master An-“
“Shhhhhh” | |

92. Chocolate
Remus lay on his back in his bed daydreaming for a change. There was nothing to do and he was all done studying. Since he was in fact a werewolf he happened to have a heightened sense of smell so when he first caught the whiff of chocolate his moth began to water.
Jumping up from his bed he began to sniff. Glad that none of his dorm mates were there to see. The smell seemed to be moving all around the room. He was beginning to get crazed with the craving.
James and Sirius under the cloak. Snicker, snicker. | |

8. Potions
James and Remus lugged their cauldron over to the table with Lily preparing to brew a suitable love potion. James was for once quiet as Lily and Remus set to work. Lily was accomplished at Potions and well Remus was accomplished at most anything he put his mind to. As they prepared the potion and it started to spread the aroma about the room they all went googly eyed.
James smelled flowers, the smell of the air in winter, and perfume.
Remus of course smelled chocolate, woods, and fresh air.
Lily smelled… James.
“Class dismissed.” Slughorn belted.
Love is here!

21. Veela
“See that girl there?” Sirius asked. He looked as though he had just come up for air. His tie was slightly askew and his hair was a mess.
“Who? That Veela girl from Beauxbatons? Yes, I see her.” James responded with a smirk on his face.
THWACK!!
“Why were you looking at her for?” Sirius yelled as he hit James atop his head with a …blink… book.
Remus set his butterbeer one the table and looked at Sirius with seriousness. “Want to know if she’s a Veela?”
“Yes”
“Go tell her she’s ugly and see what happens”
“Okay”
RUN, SIRIUS!!! | |

44. Ford Anglia
Remus dropped his coffee down the front of himself and stared in disbelief as James and Sirius’ faces popped up on the Muggle news. “Merlin’s beard!”
They were supposed to be discreet in Muggle society, not being involved in a police chase in a Ford Anglia. He quickly siphoned the coffee off of himself and ran to the fireplace, he Floo’d straight to the Potter’s home.
Not to his surprise Dumbledore and several other Order members were already there.
“Wha’ were you two thinkin’?” Moody growled
“We were being chased… so we ran” James responded simply.
“Blundering Idiots” Minerva muttered. | |

| Treats
Image by Vrain @ Gryffindoll's Graphics 88. Sweet Tooth
Moony, Prongs, and Padfoot all huddled beneath James’ cloak trying to be quiet as they headed for the One Eyed Witch passageway. Moony typically wasn’t one for breaking too many rules, but desperate times called for desperate measures. He was out of chocolate and that would not do.
Into the passageway they crept and pulled off the cloak. “To Honeydukes.” Sirius exclaimed.
Once in the cellar they began raiding boxes and tearing into treats.
Remus found the chocolate and began to stuff his face.
James and Sirius were looking for something different.
“Oh my Merlin! TANGY!”
“Your tongue!”
ACID POPS!

| Daily Prophet
99. Newspaper
Remus thumbed through the Evening Prophet with a heavy heart. So many people were dying and he had never felt so helpless. When the first war erupted he was younger and had more to offer. He, James, Sirius, Lily... the whole lot of them, they fought tooth and nail against the dark forces that threatened to overrun the Wizarding World.
His heart dropped further still as Harry’s face filled the next page. Most Wanted…. Ridiculous!
The weight of the world sat on the chil- MAN’s shoulders and his mum and dad were being made proud each day he evaded capture. | |

| Near Death Experience
1. Herbology
As the boys dragged themselves into Greenhouse 3 they were met by Professor Sprout. “Good Morning Second Years.” She said in a sing songy voice.
“Today we will be potting Mandrakes. So grab a pair of earmuffs and let’s get started.” She explained over a general groan from the class.
“Peter, I bet you’re too afraid to do it. Aren’t you?” Sirius taunted him.
Wormtail listened to Sprout, grabbed hold of a Mandrake and pulled.
Moony launched himself across the table to cover Peter’s ears. The Mandrake cried and Sirius laughed.
“You could have killed him!” Remus spat.
Sirius laughs….. | |
