! enterprise, - mess hall, ^ ic/ooc, sirius black | harry potter, yang xiao long | rwby

WHO: Anyone eating in the mess hall.
WHEN: All day.
WHERE: Mess hall.
SUMMARY: IC/OOC - enjoy!
WARNINGS: Please post trigger warnings, if any.

It's St. Patrick's Day! At least, that's what Terran members of the Enterprise crew claim. It's an ancient tradition out of the country of Ireland on Earth that celebrates the color green and is an excuse for drinking large amounts of green beer. (It's possible that some of the particulars of the holiday have been lost over the centuries...)

All of the food and drinks served in the mess hall today will be green, no matter what color they're supposed to be. Anyone eating in the mess hall will be able to enjoy this!

	"Oh we have things that are the opposite. They feed off your happiness and leave you with nothing but despair. We call them dementors, and they guard our prison..." He frowned. "Which is apparently where I end up, in the future... So I guess if I'd arrived here later in life I could give you a better description." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Grimm eat people, bones and all. But that sounds really awful." Yang frowned, setting her sandwhich down. "Like, really cruel. What kind of punishment is that?" She wasn't even sure that Cinder deserved a fate like that. Not even for what she'd done. "Do you know what you did?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Yang and Sirius

Sirius continued eating his lunch, despite it's appearance and despite this conversation, and he considered Yang a moment before answering.

"I don't know. I'd honestly never really thought about it until I found out I end up there. Right now in my world there's someone who deserves it, but that's not how things will go."

This next part was tricky, with Peter and now Lily on board, but Sirius decided to answer honestly. Maybe it was because he didn't know how to react himself, talking to someone who knew nothing about any of them was a welcome change of pace.

"I don't do anything. See, I have this group of three friends, and we've always been close. There's a war going on, and one of those friends and his wife had to hide. They were going to use me to hide them, which is weird to explain but basically whoever they used would be the only person who could reveal their location."

He paused, trying to make sure she was following. "But I am the most obvious choice, so I guess I had them use my other friend, except he turned out to be a traitor and he gets them killed. And then because I'm the only person who knows it was him and not me, since the other two are dead, he frames me and fakes his own death? So I end up in prison..."

Sighing, he realized that Peter could be in the kitchen right then, cooking, unaware of the future that awaited him. Sirius may have kept calm so far, but since Lily's arrival he'd grown more angry at events that he'd yet to witness. That he may never witness.

"Anyway, I escaped years later, at least? But this place? Seems to be a better future for me, and I feel guilty for even considering that."

Eating a good series of meals was important, though while Yang wasn't as bad as her sister where sweets were concerned, she didn't always adhere to the healthy part of eating. Just eating enough to help with how much energy she used up in any given day. Yang devoured her sandwhich while listening to Sirius.

A little frustration at her own world edged into her voice. "How come the ones that deserve it never actually get what they deserve?"

Sirius's story got to Yang a little bit, making her angry, her eyes briefly going from purple to red and her hair almost glowing. "Some friend. My best friend took off because I got hurt and she blamed herself. She did it to protect me. But even when I was the most in a funk I don't think I ever thought she was capable of that kind of thing. I'm sorry, Sirius. Don't feel guilty. Think of it like a second chance!"

Sirius was staring at Yang, confused because he could have sworn her eyes had changed color and her hair had shimmered or something but then that passed and he wasn't sure if she was a metamorphmagus or he'd imagined it all.

It was her last sentence, however, that got to him. "You're right," he said, cheering up considerably. "This is a second chance." For him, definitely for Lily, and maybe even Peter and Remus. "I hadn't thought of it that way."

	"Always look on the bright side," Yang replied, flashing him a confident grin. "Running around space sure beats being stuck in a soul sucking prison. Or being surrounded by Dementors." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Yeah, you're right. Even if sometimes all the food is green. Thanks, Yang." His own plate was empty now, so together they'd managed to get through lunch. "Think they'll do this for dinner, too?" he asked. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"For some people, green food might be a bonus!." Yang got up to dispose of her tray, and grinned at Sirius. "I kind of hope so." (Reply to this) (Parent)
