Title: Halloween Hijinks
Pairing(s)/Character(s): Severus Snape/Remus Lupin, Sirius Black, Minerva McGonagall, Harry Potter, background Giant Squid
Rating: G
Disclaimer: This story is based on characters and situations created and owned by JK Rowling, various publishers including but not limited to Bloomsbury Books, Scholastic Books and Raincoast Books, and Warner Bros., Inc.

Summary: Why did Severus think babysitting Harry would be easy if Black and Lupin were involved? He must have been Imperius'd. Really. He must have.

Notes: Dear lore, as I sit here writing—with a purring tuxedo cat on my lap—I'm hoping this offering will pass your co-mods' intense scrutiny, and meet with your approval, too. You can also blame it on that GEICO golf commercial that's so apropos for a Hogwarts Halloween. So, may you enjoy this treat, dear, lovely lore, on this Halloween Saturday. p.s. Luckily I didn't give in to my Godzilla-athon-induced ideas—that would have meant destroying Tokyo, uh, Hogwarts…again.
