prongs: i fucked up

 

moony: on a scale of one to that time sirius accidentally hit on his cousin

 

padfoot: you fuck up one fucking time

 

wormtail: that is not something we just move past

 

prongs: a solid 9.76

prongs: like that time pete accidentally tried to ask that girl out but messaged his whole poli sci class instead

 

padfoot: karma’s a bitch

 

prongs: i may be slightly more drunk than i anticipated

 

moony: yes we know


moony: you tried to go shot for shot against marlene and lily

 

padfoot: someone needs to insult remus to make sure we spread the love

 

prongs: i also may have lost everybody
prongs: this house is surprisingly huge and confusing

 

moony: not really surprising but continue

 

wormtail: listen if you accidentally walked into a bedroom instead of a bathroom again
wormtail: it happens

 

prongs: no i made it outside somehow

 

padfoot: ‘somehow’
padfoot: usually by opening a door

 

moony: or falling out of a window

 

padfoot: you’re really testing the limits tonight moony

 

prongs: i think i may have made out with someone

 

padfoot: pardon me
padfoot: WHAT??

 

wormtail: i mean get it i guess

 

moony: how do you not know if you made out with someone?

 

prongs: well i’m pretty sure i did
prongs: the making out part

 

wormtail: well as long as you’re pretty sure

 

moony: i’m still not seeing how this is a ‘pete messaging his whole class’ level fuck up

 

prongs: i have no fucking clue who it was

 

wormtail: well that’ll do it

 

padfoot: damn it was that bad?

 

prongs: i didn’t say that

 

moony: alright prince charming

 

padfoot: prince charming?

 

moony: this is literally the plot of cinderella

 

padfoot: in absolutely what universe
padfoot: we are in a frat house

 

wormtail: does this mean he has to kiss everyone here to find his cinderella

 

prongs: how did we get here

 

moony: do not go kissing random people

 

padfoot: honestly that sounds like a really fun night
padfoot: i vote yes

 

moony: this is not a democracy

 

padfoot: my vote still stands

 

prongs: do i get one?

 

moony: no

padfoot: no

 

prongs: alright then
prongs: pete i’ll meet you at the drinks while these two yell at each other

 

wormtail: will do

bex: julianne abandoned me to go fuck some random girl so who who’s gonna be my beer pong partner

 

mary: absolutely not but we will start a game of kings in the backroom

 

julianne: i did not abandon you

 

bex: damn it was that bad?

 

julianne: no it was actually pretty good until her boyfriend showed up

 

mary: please do not tell me you’re getting us kicked out already

 

marlene: oh no there’s nowhere near enough chaos for that to be happening

 

julianne: thank you for the confidence love

 

marlene: anything for you baby

 

mary: please just date already

 

julianne: would if i could

 

marlene: aw babe

 

mary: ANYWAY


mary: kings? yes? no?
mary: remus do you and the children want to join us?

 

remus: the only child i know the whereabouts of is sirius but sure we’ll play

remus: are you still with james?
remus: the girls want to play kings in the backroom

 

peter: uh no lily came and stole him like thirty minutes ago

 

remus: well that’s a lost cause then

 

peter: okay but there’s no way she’d be the one he kissed right?

 

remus: pretty sure he’d remember making out with his ex

 

peter: i mean historically…

 

remus: please never start a sentence with ‘historically’ again

 

peter: i’m just saying
peter: making out with exes is pretty on theme for this entire friend group

 

remus: no its not

 

peter: lily and james
peter: julianne and sirius
peter: marlene and bex
peter: didn’t you and james even make out that one time?

 

remus: we're not exes genius

 

peter: i’m not wrong
peter: do you think we should be concerned about all the incest?

 

remus: pete

 

peter: but yeah i’ll find james and we’ll come and play

 

remus: now i’m not so sure i want you to come

 

peter: too late i’m already on the way

 

11:58pm

 

remus: to be fair julianne doesn't date so she and sirius aren't really exes

 

peter: whatever you say buddy

regulus: no

 

sirius: that’s all i get?

 

regulus: yes

 

sirius: oh come on


sirius: one word answers, really?

 

regulus: you are literally at the same party

 

sirius: yes but i’m the lost cause

sirius: it is expected that i’m here


sirius: you on the other hand

 

regulus: it is actually not even slightly your business

 

sirius: this is how you speak to your caring and loving older brother?

 

regulus: wouldn’t know since i don’t have one of those

 

sirius: that really hurts reggie

 

regulus: i came with barty and evan

 

sirius: now was that so painful?

 

regulus: yes

mary: were you the responsible adult tonight?

 

peter: considering james was drunk enough to try to act out the plot of cinderella, yes
peter: unfortunately

 

mary: i don’t want to know
mary: who do you have?

 

peter: uh, remus is here
peter: i think bex and sirius are with us

 

mary: okay i’ve got jules, marlene, lily, and james

 

peter: our place or yours?

 

mary: probably ours
mary: it’s closest and i’m not carrying james up any more stairs than i have to

 

peter: that’s fair
