Though it didn't really seem possible, we had grown even closer to each other ever since we became animagi.
But the problem with it was that we had aquired some of the traits of our respective animagi forms, even when we were in our human form.
Sounds stupid?
I'll give you some examples.Sirius's laugh had become bark-like and he almost completely avoided eating vegetables.
James on the other hand, became a devout vegetarian. He found our that there was deer meat in a stew that we had once in fourth year, and now he looks at the meat at the dinner table, as though it had done him some personal wrong.
Peter had become overly obsessed with cheese, and made this embarrassingly squeaky sound when frightened.
I hate to admit it, but everytime someone opens a curtain, I make angry cat noises. Bright light is too...bright!
James says I'm turning into Minnie.
To be honest he's not wrong, because Minnie's animagus is a cat.
Not that she knows about us being animagi.Remus didn't need to go to the hospital wing after the last transformation.
He looked so happy and grateful, and he let us know."I brought you all some chocolate! " he sang, carrying a fucking truckload of chocolate frogs in his hands.
"some?!" asked Sirius incredulously
"some?! You brought the whole stock of them!""what can I say, the house elves were feeling generous."
The OWLS were closing in on us, and we needed to step up our game.
We took an oath to not play any pranks, or get ourselves into trouble until the OWLS were finished.We were lounging on the couches, lazily asking each other questions from the history of Magic textbook, munching on the chocolate frogs and swapping the cards when there was a tapping at the window.
"Demi." I said, recognising my mum's owl.
She was a very pretty owl, with black and bronze feathers and big, golden eyes.
I strode up to the window and opened it. Demi hopped inside.
"hi Dem" I said, detaching the letter, and a little package from her leg.
She nipped my ear affectionately, and flew over to Remus's shoulder,whom she quite liked. He stoked her feathers, smiling.
I tore my eyes away from them, and resorted to opening the letter.Dear Robin,
I hear from Minerva that your OWLS are starting soon.
You know how important these exams are, and although I have no doubt in you, I do hope you are studying hard.
I know how much you want to become an auror, and I'd be be happiest person if that comes true for you.Also I've sent you some homemade cheese biscuits.
Don't get into mischief!
Love,
Mum.I smiled as I finished reading.
"oi! Sirius, gimme some parchment will you!"He handed me some parchment and a quill over the back of the sofa.
I wrote,
Dear mum,
Thanks for the cheese biscuits!
And yes I am studying hard, actually we're studying right now.
You will not believe how long Sirius's hair has gotten!
I cut mine last week, you know how I hate when it grows past my shoulders.
The weather here is pretty bad, but it's fine because we stay indoors anyway.
write soon.
Love,
Robin.I reread the letter and then rolled it up.
then I whistled and beckoned to Demi, who flew towards me and allowed me to tie the letter to her leg."bye Dem!" I said as she flew out of the window once more. Then I turned to the sofa.
"Now where are those cheese bis-PETER WHAT THE FUCK!?!""oh, I'm sorry I was hungry" he said timidly. He had eaten all my cheese biscuits.
"idiot" I muttered. "c'mon it's time for dinner anyway"
"if it makes you feel any better" said Remus, getting up.
"it's Sunday, meaning there'll be apple pie"
I grinned.
I love apple pie."Heeeeyyyyy Evans!" said James, Messing his hair up.
Lily, who had just come on from another corridor, gave one of her famous eye-rolls, grabbed my hand and whisked me away with her.
I was counting on sitting next to Moony at dinner, but oh well.
After dinner we went back to lounging in the common room.
We were always the last ones left at the end of the day. it was now around one in the morning.
"Hey!" said Sirius suddenly, making us all jump.
"fuck! Sirius what?!" said James, clutching his chest.
"Peter stop squeaking!""We need new nicknames!" said Sirius standing up.
"we can't not have new nicknames that go with our animagus forms!""fucking hell you're right!" I said.
"Merlin! Sirius when did you become so smart? suggestions anyone?""well" said James.
"Remus is already Moony...but what can you call a stag...?""Bambi" said Sirius, referring g to a muggle movie, and laughing.
"shut up Sirius!" snapped James, laughing spite of himself.
"oh I've got it! Prongs!""sounds good!" I said.
"I've already thought of mine" said Sirius. "Padfoot."
"I've don't know what I'll be" admitted Peter.
"Wormtail" Remus said, and we all agreed on that.
"hmm" I thought, the memory of two velvety black paws came to my mind.
"I'll be Velvet.""Moony, Wormtail, Velvet, Padfoot and Prongs!" recited Sirius.
"were geniuses."
