What's this? Why'd you call it- no, Sirius, stop I-
[ there's a pause, sounds of a struggle and what could probably pass as a triumphant laugh. ]

[ he can keep this going all night, honestly. flattery is one of his favorite things. ]

[ he might be whining just a little bit there, but really. he's at that point of tired that he'll do just about anything, but doesn't have the energy to move to do it. oh woe is james. ]

video;
[ momma's boy, can you tell. but really, james loves talking about his parents. this is a very dangerous road they're heading down. ]

You're probably very popular.

I wouldn't say very. [ actually, no. he would. whoops. ] But I like people. Like knowing people. Can't really help wanting to, you know?
