James potter was quite content with his potty party thank you very much, so to say he was not pleased when his best friend Sirius dragged him out of bed to sneak into a slytherin party, of all things! Was most definitely an understatement
"Knock, knock! Guess who?!" Sirius bounded into the dorms, positively bursting with excitement
"Go awayyyy" a large, moping lump grumbled from one of the four poster beds
"No can do my friend, we have you get you ready" he said, dramatically pulling the duvet off of the bed, leaving a quite ruffled James very cold*I feel you James☹️*
"Pads!, seriously, was that really necessary?"
"And what do I need to get ready for that is oh so important?!"
"Well I'm glad you asked prongsy boy, for WE are going to a party!! And you have to come." Sirius looked at James with puppy dog eyes " pleaseeee"
"Sirius"
"James"
"Why do I let you do this to me?" He mumbled into his pillow
"Yessss!! Thank merlin I was getting tired of your 'oh woe is me' attitude" Sirius exclaimed flopping onto his bed, mimicking James
"You better shut it now, or you can forget me ever going to a party with you. Ever. Emphasis on 'ever'" he deadpanned throwing a pillow at his friend
————————————--—(time skip🙀)
"Whose party are we going to again? I think you failed to mention that part." James asked, beating himself internally for letting Sirius drag him into this
"Okay get this?* insert pause for dramatic effect*
we're sneaking into the slytherin party!" Sirius says practically giddy
"Are you serious!? This is so not a good idea" James huffed, regretting his decision in friends
"But it'll be fun tho" a mischievous grin plastered on his face
"Okay? But how do you plan on getting us in the party in the first place?" He raised an eyebrow
"Well, my dear friend* hahaha get it. Deer.... No☹️ okay
* I'm glad you asked. I over heard a group of seven years talking about a party and me*points to himself * being the super genius I am successful stole the password" he holds up a small piece of parchment, supporting a Cheshire Cat grin
"Of course you did, honestly I should have known*he throws his hands in the air* now, are we doing this or what?" James questions as they turn down the corridor to the slytherin dorms

Regulus black was not happy. In fact he was positively miserable.
First of all Evan and barty were forcing him to attend the house party this evening- with PEOPLE
Second of all his parents had just sent him a rather disturbing letter about him meeting the dark lord-merlin help him
And third of all* maybe even the worst thing yet for he'd just finished his book series- and it Ended a bloody cliffhanger * omg it's the worst fr*
So it is definitely safe to say that regulus black was not happy
"Oi! Reg, you nearly ready? The party's about to start" barty voice thundered upstairs
"How many times do I have to tell you not call me that stupid name" he sighed" and yeah I'll be down in a minute" he turned to look at himself in the bathroom mirror, fixing a loose curl
Regulus gripped the sides of the bathroom mirror so hard his knuckles turned white and whispered
"My name is regulus black, and I will not be afraid" * if you got that reference ily 🫶*
He turned on his heel and marched confidently down to the common room* well a confident as he
could*
