That afternoon was rather lazy. Mrs. Weasley, Hermione, Hermione, Rose, and Victoire were working on getting home, but they didn't need help, so most other people simply lounged around.
People were talking with namesakes and family and friends and themselves.
Then, Lily looked up and realized something.
"Dad, the Golden Marauders are missing!"
Harry jerked his head up in surprise, just as Albus came into the room, chasing the Golden Marauders around.
Albus had four different colours of paint splattered all over himself, obviously done by the GMs.
Finally, Albus, who was absolutely fuming, got out his wand, and splattered James from head to toe in green paint. However, some of it splashed to the side and hit Molly in the back of the head. So then Molly and the Golden Marauders were trying to get Albus, who was being defended by Rose and Scorpius. Eventually, it had turned into an all-out paint war.
Harry, who had stepped to the side, watched with a small smile as everybody in the small room got roped into the war. Sirius, Tonks, and Remus had teamed up, Sirius going at all-out attacks, Tonks using her Auror skills, and Remus discretely shooting paint at anybody not looking. All of the next-generation were attacking each other, while the present kids were teaming up and hitting everybody.
They were yelling and screaming, especially once Mr. Weasley joined in, when suddenly Teddy appeared at the door, frowning. Everybody froze.
"Are you having a paint war..." asked Teddy, looking annoyed "...without me!"
Teddy came running in, rolling his sleeves up as he did. He grabbed Harry's arm from the corner and brought him into the middle of the room.
"Hey Uncle Harry, shall we show them how it's done?"
Harry grinned, "Let's show them why I was the youngest Head Auror ever, and why you are the second-best DADA teacher at Hogwarts!"
Teddy frowned for a moment. "Second-best?"
"I was the best, of course."
Then they stood back to back and began to shoot off paint. They ducked and rolled, both of their wands blurs as blood-red paint covered everybody in the room from head to toe.
When they finished, nobody was any other colour besides red, and Teddy and Harry stood in the center of the room, completely clean.
Everybody stood shocked before Sirius burst out laughing.
"Amazing! Absolutely positively brilliant! How'd you get so good?"
Harry grinned. "I was youngest Head Auror ever before I became the best DADA teacher to ever teach at Hogwarts, and Teddy here is the second best. And he comes and helps me sometimes on emergency missions, so we work well together."
Sirius and Remus looked ecstatic about that, and after they had finished cleaning up, they forced the two to sit down and tell about their jobs.
Soon, those who had been working on getting them home came into the room and cleared their throats to get their attention.
Hermione spoke first. "We will be going home early tomorrow morning. How the spell works is we stand in a circle, everybody who needs to be obliviated around us, and we say the incantation. It will bring the people from the future back here, where they join the circle, we chant it again and we get taken home and everybody here gets obliviated."
Everybody had the same mixed reaction, happy but sad to leave those people behind and never see them again.
So after dinner, it was a subdued group going upstairs to bed and a subdued group talking in the kitchen after.
