Title: Halloween Hijinks
Pairing(s)/Character(s): Severus Snape/Remus Lupin, Sirius Black, Minerva McGonagall, Harry Potter, background Giant Squid
Rating: G

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.
