GROUPCHAT + TEXTS

THE MARAUDERS
padfoot, prongs, moony, wormtail

prongs
hello mates
my mum will be picking us as well as sage up from the train station and dropping wormtail off at his house

moony
how exactly are we getting back from the station?

prongs
portkey from the station and floo from my house

wormtail
who's excited to be spending the holiday with a pretentious, cold hearted slytherin!

moony
she's not that bad, peter
she's actually quite sweet when you get to know her

wormtail
fontaine? sweet?
are we talking about the same person?

padfoot
she's actually hilarious
in the dry, dark humor sort of way
like she'll say something and you'll be standing there asking yourself if you're allowed to laugh

prongs
can confirm
like all lily talks about is how cool sage is

padfoot
same with my brother

moony
if i didn't know sage better, i'd think they were dating

prongs
nah, mate
they trauma bonded after julien died
apparently regulus and julien were really close so when he died, reg and sage leaned on each other
at least according to lily

padfoot
she doesn't talk about him so i wouldn't know
at least not to me

wormtail
why do we keep talking about fontaine
she's not that special

padfoot
you can dislike her all you want but don't talk bad about her in front of me
she doesn't deserve your rudeness when she hasn't spoken even two words to you

wormtail
i just don't get why we're talking about her the way james used to talk about lily

prongs
because sage is sirius's lily <3

padfoot
no, james
we're just friends

moony
mmmm no you're not mate
she's your maia

padfoot
no she's not
if anything, she's into my brother

prongs
no she's not you twat
they're just best friends

padfoot
i don't need relationship advice for a girl i'm not interested in dating

moony
alright whatever you say

WAND, PLAY ABBA
sage, maia, lily, rowan, charlotte, marlene

sage
one last sleepover this weekend before the holiday?

lily
YESSSSS

maia
yes please
i won't be getting to see any of you until the new year

marlene
i'm in if char's in

charlotte
when have i ever passed up an opportunity to see my girls

rowan
gryffindor tower or the dungeons?

sage
gryffindor tower
i don't want you and lily around bellatrix or rodolphus

charlotte
how are 6 people going to fit in 2 beds?

lily
sagey can sleep in sirius's bed ;)

sage
gross
never say anything like that again

SIRIUS & SAGE

sage
are your friends trying to get us together?

sirius
yeah, why?

sage
so are mine
it's annoying

sirius
you really think i'm that awful?

sage
well, no
you could be worse
but that doesn't mean i want to date you

sirius
a shining review from sage 'whatever your middle name is' fontaine: could be worse

sage
it's celeste

sirius
what is

sage
my middle name
it's celeste

sirius
oh
that's pretty
mine's orion

sage
thanks, i hate it
i was originally going to be named juliet but then my brother was born first and they couldn't have a julien AND a juliet, so they named me sage

sirius
i like your name
it suits you

sage
stop being so unnervingly nice
it's making it harder for me to not want to be your friend

sirius
why is it so hard for you to be my friend?

sage
because i already have enough people knowing my business
i don't need someone new

sirius
oh
i understand
maybe not best friends
but could we at least be regular friends?
READ 3:47pm
sage?

sage
sure
why not

sirius
brilliant

sage
don't get too excited
i want to set some ground rules

sirius
oh?

sage
1)no asking about, talking about, or mentioning my parents.

sirius
alright
what else

sage
2)respect my boundaries when it comes to sensitive subjects
3)understand that i am not an affectionate person
and finally, most importantly
4)at least try to patch things up with your brother

sirius
sage you can't expect me to make things right with him when i didn't do anything wrong

sage
you can at least try. out of respect for me, who will never have a brother again

sirius
fine
i'll work on it
but i have a request

sage
what is it

sirius
i get to call you sagey

sage
absolutely not

sirius
fair enough

heyyyyy besties do i dye my hair purple or blue
