James heard the loud noise and his Potter instincts wouldn’t let him just sit there. His dad’s speech was supposed to be over but he knew the press always hounded him after things like that so he figured Harry would be another ten minutes before making it back up to his office.Yeah, he had time.

The sound doubled when the office door opened. James saw the flashing green and knew something was wrong. He ran towards the noise almost taking out another person on the way, “Reese? What the bloody hell is going on? Is Dad’s speech over?”

James laughed, but didn’t look up from the paper he was signing. “Give me 30 seconds and I will go with you willingly, I swear.” He finished up quickly and started getting his desk together. “This is a surprise. You pulling me out of work for a change.”

She knocked on his classroom door. “Hi,” Lottie smiled. “You all finished up? I was going to go get food and didn’t know if you’d willingly come with me or if I needed to force you out.”

Lily rolled her eyes, “I may look more Weasley but my personality is all Potter.” She laughed along with him. It was funny how the three kids all took after one majority parent looks wise. Though perhaps James was the best mix out of the three of them. “That would be amazing and I would totally help.” The redhead agreed. “As long as I get to take a million photos.” 

“I keep trying to convince him to do a full family costume, which is even better now that he’s married, but nooo.” James rolled his eyes, “Our older brother has decided to be a punk for the rest of his life. But thank you for the help, you’re the only one I really like.” He laughed.

Chelsea had to cover her mouth to hide her snort at the idea. “You ate half a bag?!” She asked incredulously, shaking her head as she followed him to the trashcan, brimming with laughter. “I would probably be inclined to agree with your uncle.” She teased before turning on her heel and heading towards the candy shop. “Now the true question, is what will you get to rid your mouth of that awful taste?”

“I’m weak!” James laughed, “Don’t make fun of me, please. I just like to eat candy.” He eagerly followed her to the shop while thinking about the question. “I’m really into sour stuff right now, so obviously a lot of that. You can also never go wrong with chocolate.”

lils-pctter​:

“Yeah that’s- that’s not the best.” She couldn’t help but to agree with that. “But it’s so cute when she changed her hair color to match mine! She’s like a little mini me” 

“Especially when you and mom are all together with the Weasleys and it’s like the Potter genes don’t even exist.” James laughed. “Ok, but since we’re talking about her, I wanna steal her for halloween. I haven’t told Teddy yet, but I want to do Sully and she could totally pass as Boo, and i might be able to convince her to change into that little purple monster thing.” He grinned.

Lily nodded, “That I can agree with.” She giggled, watching the kids run away towards their parents. “Though I think our niece- and our little cousins are the cutest.” 

“Yeah, our family does have some cute kids.” He laughed, “But their behavior makes them slightly less cute. Especially when Iris turns into a spider.”

She snorted as she pulled another out of the bag, spitting it out as soon as it went into her mouth. “Yeah, thought I’d give it one more shot so I could pretend I believed they were ever good but it’s a no-go. Tell your family member you love them but aren’t looking forward to being poisoned anytime soon.” She teased, leaning back some. “I am now in the mood for good candy though, if you wanna come.”

“See that’s what I said! And then I ate half the bag! Trust me, they grow on you. Maybe that’s the whole trick.” James shook his head, “Yeah, no, I can’t tell my uncle jack shit. He’d just think it was even funnier that they were disgusting anyway.” James tied the bag up and threw it in the nearest trash can. “Yes. Absolutely.”

Chelsea grabbed a jellybean while shooting him a skeptical look. Popping it in her mouth she winced, shaking her head. “I don’t know but I don’t like it. The worst thing I’ve ever swallowed.” She still had her face scrunched as the flavor vanished. “You’re telling me you’ve eaten how many of those? I don’t know how you haven’t ended up in like, a coma.”

James laughed, “They aren’t that bad!” He ate another one, “No, ok they are bad but,” He finally set the bag down. “The first few tasted good, I swear. This is what I get for supporting my family.”

[jpcttcr]

“What do you think this tastes like?” James held the bag of jelly beans out to the other. “It’s giving me a weird vibe but I can’t stop eating it.”

James smiled as a toddler ran in front of him and cut off his path to the store. He couldn’t help but laugh when his younger siblings came running after them. “Like little ducklings,” He smiled at the other person, “Kids are cute. I’m probably biased, but still.”

James was lost. He needed -something- but he didn’t know what and everything looked nice but not the right thing. He ran his hands through his hair for the hundredth time before being startled by the new voice. “Huh? Sorry. I wasn’t paying attention.” He looked around hopelessly. “I need help.” He chuckled.

Usually Tilly tried to greet everyone as they entered the store but that often times went in one ear and out the other. Typically people liked to be left alone while they browsed and would approach her if she needed help. The boy in front of her however, was simply circling the store many times and not saying anything. So she figured it’d probably be best for her to approach him. “Are you looking for something specific?” She asked from behind him.

“No, you hate holidays that involve candy because you’re the monster here, not her.” He looked over at Teddy as he passed Iris another peep. “Learn to live a little. Plus, I don’t like the green ones.”

“If you care about me at all, you will not feed that monster anymore candy.” He nodded towards his six-year-old and rolled his eyes. “This is why I hate holidays that involve candy.”

[jpcttcr]

James snorted, “Why are they haunting you? Just vanish them, or better yet, eat them.”

“No, seriously. I went on a spring baking spree and I have an entire kitchen full of every dessert you could possible imagine. You have to come help me get rid of them or they’ll stay there and taunt me until someone does.”

[jpcttcr]

“Ok, so you might want to put the coffee down then.” James suggested. “Just a tip.”

“I might be slightly crazy. I got stuck in this show last night and binged two seasons.” He looked at the other, slightly wide-eyed. “No sleep. I think I can taste colors.”

“No but like, you just made it worse, brush it the other way, like…” YJ rolled his eyes, “Also what product are you using? Because I think you should change it, you could definitely find better.”

“What’s wrong with the product i’m using?” James sneered, “And how the hell can you tell?” He flipped around his phone camera, “It’s not greasy or anything.” He turned back to YJ. “You always do this to me.”

“Yeah I w as never very good at it in school. It’s fun to watch but I’m too easily distracted, I’d probably take a bludger to the head or something.” Hayley looked up, “Oh, teacher? Where? Hogwarts?”

“And let me tell you, as someone whose taken a bludger to the head, it’s not fun.” He laughed, “I teach preschool, but I coach little league quidditch.”

Xander ordered two whiskeys before looking back. “Yeah? Work? Personal life? Family? All of the above?”

“Work, this time around.” James laughed. “I feel like my heads been ringing since lunch.” He rolled his eyes. “What brings you to the bar this evening?”
