Who: James and Andromeda

What: an unexpected encounter leads to an unexpected conversation.
Rating: no higher than PG, I'm sure, as is the usual for me.
She couldn't sleep. This was beginning to become a normal routine for her, this whole being unable to sleep. Yet, unlike during this past holiday, she didn't have the city to wander around in. The closest thing she had to that here in Hogwarts was the lawn outside, where the odds of her being disturbed would be little to none. To further tempt her, the blue-green hues of her dorm only made her think about the lake, which was outside.
Rising carefully from her bed so that she would not disturb her dormmates, the girl draped a heavy dark grey cloak over her nightgown, slipping her feet into a pair of boots, and quietly tiptoed out of her dormitory. As a Prefect, she knew she shouldn't be up after hours on nights when she didn't have her rounds, although the girl could not help but feel that when it came to certain things, the school was willing to turn the blind eye toward, and felt alright about her wandering outside at this hour.
Once she was outside, she crossed the lawn and walked up to the lake, staring into its glassy black depths, musing over the fact that just beneath the calm waters were her Housemates, soundly sleeping. For the most part, anyway. She drew her cloak closer around her slender frame just a bit more as a gust of chilly winter air blew past her, whipping her long hair all about her face. What she hadn't anticipated on, however, was the soft trudging of feet not too far from where she stood, and the girl turned around to see who this unexpected company was, a mildly worried frown forming on her brow.

Who: MWPP and OPEN
When: January 10, 1977, pre-breakfast
Where: out on the lawn/Great Hall?
What: James confronts Sirius (about his "girl") and Remus (about "his girl")--belated Snape Birthday conversation.
Rating: PG-13? May change.
James went out early to the pitch, he needed some flying time. Somehow, he hadn't got enough practice in since they've been back at the castle, and he was feeling it. He was out of balance, both mentally and physically, and he needed some time to think. There were many accusations that were being flung around carelessly, and although sometimes amusing, they were not too helpful in causing anything but total chaos. After a bit of trying out some new maneuvers, and a hearty work out, James showered, and sat himself on one of the benches in Hagrid's rose garden. He pulled out a mirror out of his robes and called to Sirius. "Rise and Shine. Bright eyed and bushy tailed! Wake up, you big pillock. Come on, get out here and bring Peter and Remus. I'm feeling lonely, and we need to talk about our birthday present to Severus. We're late this year."

Who: Alice and Open
What: Relaxing
When: January 10, 1977 - Early Morning
Where: The Lake
Rating: TBD
It was a clear morning at Hogwarts. The sky was cloudless, and the weather was nice. Normally Alice wouldn't have been up this early, but she had went to bed quite early the night before, so it wasn't too big of a surprise that she had also woke up early. Not that she minded too much, she liked to get up early sometimes.
Alice, not being the indoors type, had decided to take advantage of the fact that very few people would be awake and take a walk down to the lake. She grabbed the book of her nightstand and had headed down to the lake. Once there, she had found a nice tree to sit under. Alice stretched herself out under the tree, the morning glow trickling through the leaves. Alice took out her book, opening it to the dog eared page. She must have read that Auror book about a thousand time, or at least close to it, but it was a good refresher and something to do.
