One Shots

Music Is Music

The Slytherins, Gryffindors, Pandora, Emmeline, and Ted fight about which music category is the best.

or, Lily walks in. "What are you all fighting about?"

"What the best song category is."

Lily sighs. "Why this?"

"I don't know. It just..... happened."

"Well, the best category is motivational."

Everyone gasps. "Lily Evans wants in on the fight?"

"I don't want in. I want to stop this."

"Ok, but I'm just saying. Pop music is so much better."

"Pop music might be good, but depressing songs are fire."

"No, love songs are the best."

"Definitely, pop."

Marlene nods. "Yeah, pop."

"Marls, it's definitely upbeat songs that are better."

"Upbeat and pop are the same thing."

"No, they're not."

"Yes, they are."

"Emotional songs are better."

"Emotional songs are like every single song ever created."

"No."

"Ok, but what about rap? Rap is so good."

"No, alternative pop."

Barty rolls his eyes. "No, definitely the angry ones."

"Definitely angst."

"Angry and angst are the same thing."

"No, they're not."

"Happy songs are the best."

"Happy and pop are the same thing, too."

"I don't like pop, but I like happy."

"It's definitely country."

"Musical."

"Musical is its own category?"

"Yeah. Because they're the best."

Lily walks in. "What are you all fighting about?"

"What the best song category is."

Lily sighs. "Why this?"

"I don't know. It just..... happened."

"Well, the best category is motivational."

Everyone gasps. "Lily Evans wants in on the fight?"

"I don't want in. I want to stop this."

"Minnie would agree with me."

"Minnie, would what?" Minevra walks in the Gryffindor common room.

The Slytherins aren't allowed in the Gryffindor common room. Minnie forbid it with how much chaos ensues when the whole group is there. Hufflepuffs and Ravenclaws are allowed, just not Slytherins.

"Hey, McGonagall."

"Macdonald is a suck up!"

"Mr. Potter, I told you the Slytherins aren't allowed in here."

"I - um."

Minevra holds up her hand. "No, don't. You're going to say something stupid. Just don't." She sighs. "Don't ask me how I knew they were in here, but Slughorn is looking for you. House meeting."

"But we haven't settled our debate."

"What is this 'debate'?"

"What the best song category is."

"What are your options?"

James smiles. "Pop, depressing, upbeat, musical, love, funny, country, angst, angry, emotional, rap, alternative pop, and motivational."

"Motivational."

James gasps. "Minnie!"

"Now, go." The Slytherins sigh and stand up. "Miss Evans, the Slytherins aren't allowed in here." Lily nods at McGonagall before she leaves.

"I can't believe Minnie betrayed me."
