Just wondering: How well can all of you SING???

Sirius: Very well, thanks.

James: Maybe in the shower.

Lily: Ugh, please tell me that he doesn't sing in the shower...

Peter: Loud and proud.

Remus: And off-key.

Lily: *sigh* I can sing alright, I guess.

James: Don't sing very much, so I wouldn't know.

Remus: I'm with Prongs, I don't sing much.

Peter: I don't like singing in public...

From: Alex
My question is for Peter. Peter, what Gryffindor do you have a crush on?

Peter: *blushes* Well...

Sirius: C'mon Wormtail! Fess up!

Peter: There is that girl Catherine...

Lily: She's really sweet. Why don't you go talk to her?

Peter: *stares like an animal caught in headlights* Um...

Remus: *smiles* I'm pretty sure she doesn't bite.

Lily: Awww, poor Peter...

For all of you, you, too, Snapey! If you could do anything to Voldemort, without killing him or being killed, what would you do?

Sirius: Cover him in chocolate sauce.

ALL: WHAT?!

Sirius: *shrugs* First thing that came to mind.

James: Ew. Ew. Ew.

Remus: Bad. Mental. Image.

Lily: Can we set him on fire and let him burn eternally in hellfire or something?

Sirius: Now I can see why you want to marry this girl, Prongs. Awesome idea, Lils!

James: PADFOOT! *blushes slightly*

Lily: *grins*

James: *sigh* We could lock him in a dungeon with Snape and let him test potions on him for eternity. Heh.

Snape: Hmmm, that could be intriguing...

Remus: Or we could take away his wand, transfigure him into a pet, and give him to some Muggles.

From: Spork of doom
If you could poke someone with a spork, who would you poke? Everyone must answer, even Snape.

Boys: Snape, of course!

Lily: Oooh, we could poke Voldemort with a spork *while* he burns in eternal hellfire!

James: Should I be worried that she's this creative?

Sirius: You are one lucky man, Prongs.

James: *hits Sirius upside the head*

From: Alliana
Describe the person who is sitting/standing next to you with three words. (Be evil)

Sirius: *looks at James* "One Lucky Man". *snickers*

James: Quit it, Padfoot!

Lily: *looks at Remus* "Very Patient Soul". *smiles*

Remus: Thanks, Lily. *looks at Peter* "Impatient For Lunch".

Peter: *sigh* You're right...when's dinner?

ALL: *falls over*

Snape: I will not play such foolish games... *leaves*

Peter: *looks at Snape's retreating back* "Shampoo Bottle, Stat!"

James: Nice one, Wormtail! *looks at Lily* Hmm... nah, if you want me to be evil, I should look at Padfoot instead... *looks at Sirius now* "One Dumb Puppy".

Sirius: Hey! I'm not dumb. Just easily distracted.

Remus: Especially around females.

From: Wildberry
Would you rather choose a beautiful and stupid girl or a modest but smart girl?

Lily: Looks are overrated and fade with time.

James: Besides, Lily has looks and intelligence.

Lily: *smiles*

Sirius: Depends on if you're a heartless git or not. I like a girl that can argue back with me. *grins*

Remus: I'd prefer the modest and smart girl. Brains are more attractive than looks that fade.

From: Siri ish me
Why is Grape Nuts cereal called that, when it contains neither grapes, nor nuts?

Boys: Huh?

Lily: That, my friends, is a question for the ages...

From: tempura domburi
If you met a quadradic equation walking down the street (they are very deadly), what would you do? You can't hex/curse/charm/transfigure it because it is not tangible.

Lily: Solve it, of course.

Sirius: Quadra-whatchamacallit?

Remus: *sigh* A Quadradic equation. And I'm with Lily, solve it and it goes away.

Okay...So let's say author JK Rowling visits this site, sees this AtM and reads every reply you guys answer. What do you guys think her first reaction will be?

James: Who are these nutjobs?

Remus: These girls have some imagination...

Sirius: Where's my lawyer! I feel a lawsuit coming on!

Lily: Do you even know what a lawyer is, Sirius?

Sirius: You told me that they all would be in Slytherin if they were wizards.

Lily: Haha, fair enough. I think she'd be very amused by all this.

From: Hazel
Whats the biggest mistake you've ever made pranking someone? *evil grin*

James: *grumbles* Pranking McGonagall first year...

Sirius: We had fuzzy antennae for a week after that one.

Lily: She certainly got you lot good for turning her chair into a litterbox.

From: Gemini
Peter, in the 2nd movie, Ron turned Scabbers into a furry goblet....did that hurt? Did he drink out of the goblet? And if so, what does it feel like to be drank out of?

Peter: It didn't hurt, just felt really odd. And wet when there was water in me. I don't think he drank out of me. THAT I would have noticed. *makes face*

From: Sarah
Imagine this: You've just been transported into Harry's time exactly as you are right now. What's the first thing you do?

Sirius: Prank "Professor" Snape. *grins*

James: Go smack Fudge around some for being such a stupid git.

Lily: Give the boy a hug. Poor thing. *sniffles*

Peter: Go kick the me of that time for being a git. *sigh*

Remus: I'd also go smack Fudge around.

From: Spellman
Hey all! Have any of you ever used Polyjuice Potion before, and if so, who have you turned into? And if you haven't used it, who would you want to turn into? Thanks! ^^

James: Um...*looks at Lily* No comment.

Sirius: Me too.

Lily: You didn't...

James: We didn't turn into *you* or anything...

Sirius: But some things are best left between men.

Lily: *snorts* Men...

Remus: At least I didn't participate in that one. I think they did it when I was in the hospital wing.

From: Ejvul
I've heard rumors about bondage. How do you guys feel about this?

Boys: *wide-eyed* Huh?!

Lily: How else would we keep them in check? Haha, just kidding...

James: All the rumors you've heard are false. Unless Snapey has something we need to know about...

Snape: *from the next room* Sod off you insufferable twit!

Remus: *chuckles* I think Snape's into it just by his reaction. And I'm not too keen on the idea of it.

From: You-know-who
This question is mostly for Sirius but if you guys were responsible for naming your own pirate ship what you call 'er?

Sirius: Arrrrrrrr!

James: Great, there he goes again...

Sirius: The Fiery Dragoon!

James: ?!

Sirius: What? I like it!

James: Whatever you say, mate.

Sirius: That's matey! Arrr!

James: *long suffering sigh*

Remus: Prongs, now you know what I deal with every day.

Sirius: *sticks tongue out at Remus*

From: Cats Rule
What do you think of cats?(it better not be "I hate them")

Sirius: They taste good with mustard? *evil grin*

Lily: *glares* Git. I think they're WONDERFUL.

Peter: Scary.

Remus: Something to snap at when I get hyperactive.

James: Nice feet warmers?

From: Amy Lampion
James- Did you know that in Medieval times, knights used to put stags on their sheilds? Did you also know that they stood for purity?

Sirius: Pu...purity? *bursts out laughing*

Remus: *joins Sirius in laughing*

James: I can be very pure.

Peter: In your intentions to prank people?

Lily: In his intentions with women. He's a sweetheart. Unlike some people. *glares at Sirius*

Sirius: What can I say? The ladies love me!
