curiosity and its victims Date: May 13th, 2025 Characters: Lily Potter & Dalton Pucey Location: Gryffindor Boy's Dormitory Private/Public: Private Rating/Warnings: None! Summary: Curiosity kills Gryffindors on a regular basis.
Snooping has always been a thing in their family. From the time that James stole her diary when she was in first year, to numerous occasions that Lily did her best to hijinx Al's owls to mum before before she'd gone to Hogwarts in the hopes of finding something, anything that could count as "dirt" on her brother, and always nothing.
This was no different.
James was off at breakfast, she knew, as she'd watched particularly for him to leave so she could make her move. Word got around fast in the rumor mill that was this school, and just because the girl had been a Hufflepuff didn't mean that these things didn't come back to Gryffindor.
The thought of her brother closet-hopping and not only not telling her, but doing his best to keep her from any form of action was simply not fair. That was all there was to it.
The trunk was first, Lily opening the lock in a flash in the hopes of finding something, anything inside to throw in his face.
