General Harry Potter RPG

[Ex-Professor Remus Lupin]

Remus shook his head, "I'm fine," he said carefully, narrowing his eyes at Sirius. "You need to work on your sneaking. That was awful. You'll get us caught if you keep that up."  

[Sirius Black-Snuffles]

Sirius nodded.

"Yeah, I know, mistake on my part, it's been a while since I was under an Invisibility Cloak. I don't think we'll both fit, but we've got to get to the humpback witch. Well, I've got to, you want to come? I could really use your brilliant mind," he explained. He grinned at Moony.

"It'll be fun."  

[Ex-Professor Remus Lupin]

Remus smirked. "As if I wouldn't," he said, struggling to his feet. "Do you really think I'd let you out of my sight? You've got something planned and I'm going to find out what it is."  

[Sirius Black-Snuffles]

Sirius stood up and folded up the cloak. He shoved the material into his pocket and glanced briefly at the map.

"Looks like we're good. Come on, let's get on up to the third floor." He turned and started up the stairs before stopping and glancing at Remus. He was about to ask him something before he shook his head and started back up the stairs quickly.

"Stupid question..." he muttered as they continued on.  

[Ex-Professor Remus Lupin]

Remus followed closely behind, wondering what exactly the other man was planning. He nearly ran into Sirius when he stopped, looking at him for a moment and then shaking his head.

"Stupid question."

"Sirius, there are no stupid questions," Remus said sagely. "Just stupid answers."  

[Sirius Black-Snuffles]

"That's not true. For example, if some one were to ask you how many legs does a six legged insect have, that's a stupid question," replied going up the stairs two at a time and walking briskly down the halls in between. Finally they were within sight of the humpback witch and six barrels sitting as innocently as six barrels can sit in the middle of an empty hallway next to an old statue. Sirius grinned.

"Brilliant..." he muttered before inspecting each barrel and peering inside to check the contents.  

[Ex-Professor Remus Lupin]

Remus huffed. "Still, what did you want to ask me?"

He glanced uncertainly at the barrels sitting in the middle of the hallway. Moving toward them, he took the lid from Sirius' hand and peered inside. "Butterbeer? What in the world are we doing?"  

[Sirius Black-Snuffles]

Sirius grinned mischieviously.

"We are getting them through the tunnel and to the other side where we will slip them out of Honeydukes. There we will switch all the signs on all the shops and six unlucky people will have barrels above their signs--invisible of course--that will tip over and soak the person who tries to fix the signs."

"Do you think you can handle it Moony?" he challenged.  

[Ex-Professor Remus Lupin]

Remus laughed. "You're not answering my first question, but yes, I can handle that," he said, shaking his head in amusement. "This is rather brilliant. But, I still want to know what you wanted to ask me."  

[Andromeda Black Tonks]

Harry shook his head as he watched Gabriel drink. With a sigh, he turned to Kathryn. "So, how are you feeling tonight?" he asked curiously.

((I just got off from an eight hour shift. God, work sucks.))  

[Sirius Black-Snuffles]

"Good, should we put disillusionment charms on the barrels now?" Sirius asked. He glanced at Remus.

"Don't worry about what I was going to ask, half of it's been answered--the rest of it I forgot."  

[Ex-Professor Remus Lupin]

"Fine," Remus said studying the barrels for a moment. "How do you plan on getting these to Hogsmead in the first place?"  

[Sirius Black-Snuffles]

Sirius frowned.

"Well, we go down the passage, I'll levitate three in front of me, and you levitate three in front of you and then...that won't work, we'll need to open the passage on the other side..." He glanced over the barrels.

"Do you think we could shrink them?"  

[Ex-Professor Remus Lupin]

Remus chuckled. "Didn't quite think this through did we," he said, kneeling down and tapping the barrel, checking the durability. "They seem sturdy enough to shrink, but the question is whether or not we can shrink the contents as well. The spell might have to be modified or something in order to handle two elements instead of one."  

[Lunar_Blade]

Kathryn gave a confused nod at Gabriel before stretching her double-jointed arms wide, and twisted them in what would appear to be painful. Placing them neatly on the table she looked over at Harry.

"As could as I can be at a time like this, but yeah, I'm feeling pretty good tonight," She answered with a grin. "Thanks for your concern, how are you?" Kathryn asked, trying not to say somethign insensitive for atleast 5 minutes.
