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. ]

Right! Name's James Potter. 'pparently you can leave things here for me to read later? Brilliant.
Uh, what am I even supposed to say?

Wait, no, this is my bloody-

[ and the feed is cut off. blame sirius. ]

does that mean I get to follow your around for the rest of this natural life of yours?

[ to write for you of course ]

of course you would like the thing as it makes your stalking of evans all the easier
but if you put it that way yes i do like always being in your heart (your ❤) (your pocket?) and with you at all times
a mere :) away
or :(
more :) than :(

[EYEROLL do not call this a "little talk" gross he is being a best mate it's not like they're GIRLS James honestly]

well someone has to set you straight
or else you get all damp and depressed and bring me down and i do so hate being brought down
id prefer to skip around the spaceship with you
if i must suffer giving talks and watch you try desperately hard not to be a prat for evans then i will do so
for you and for myself

anyways you can do it youre brilliant
what are you so worried for

hang on were you not going to follow me around
+ what about my unnatural life

easier, yes. but also slightly less fun. no room to be creative with this outside of ❤ and ;)
and why would I ever want to :( you that is saved strictly for Moony and sometimes Evans but mostly Moony
:)

I do not get damp and depressed excuse you
maybe a little down but nothing a good gallivant can't cure.
we do not skip padfoot, goodness.
where is your head at these days

what am I

[ also, there is a pause here. maybe a minute or so, before the next text comes. well, sirius, if he's going to open up to anyone about this... ]

I'm worried I'll cock it up and it'll end up changing back home.
I'm worried that this whole future catastrophe is going to make her change her mind
I'm worried

bloody hell Sirius what if getting with Evans is the reason this whole thing happens in the first place.
what if I can stop it from happening by just
not
being with her.

anyway
of course I was going to follow you around.
this would just make me a more constant and permanent figurehead in your life
do you think you could handle that?
really and truly?

also natural makes me think normal and I'm fairly certain you are anything but normal.
normal is boring

are you saying you are only :) never :(
as in, NEVER EVER
as in there is nothing i can do to be :(
WHY POTTER....... :) :) :)

also my head is in space
& i dont think you get to be irritated with me for saying skip as you just told me
always :)

also i am very normal & natural even if you dont understand me
& i always want your head to figure in my life
and your figure to head in my life
ooh potter are you asking me to marry you because if so the answer is

YES MY DARLING YES

[sooooo okay the rest of this... is more difficult. which is why he saves it for the end, because it takes Real Thought and Real Feelings, both of which Sirius has in rather short supply (or so he would claim). But when your best mate needs you, you step in, no matter if it's dragons or girls or the horrible inevitable future or weird relationship crises (made weirder by the fact that the relationship isn't really defined as a relationship yet) (too weird).]

look you are being an idiot
you are thinking much too hard and you know what happens when you attempt real thought
boiling over like a shit cauldron! we cant have that

if it happens the way it happened at hogwarts where one day evans wakes up and decides she might actually be able to see past your humongous head and inflated ego then it happens that way
and if it happens because she looks up from her mushy spacemeal one day and sees you standing dashingly across the room eating your mushy spacemeal then it happens that way

if she hated you then shed not talk to you but she is talking to you and she does talk to you and she doesnt hex you or throw books at you so already your record has improved

and if she lets some weird mad future stop her from getting together with you then shes not worth it anyways
but shes clever so she wont
because youre actually secretly brilliant? and there was something that made her wake up and see that right

but youre not seriously telling me that you think that VOLDEMORT COMES TO POWER just because YOU snog lily evans & more a few thousand times
james
that is big headed even for you evans is never going to go for that

this doesnt happen because of you or because of her or because of anything you do
this happens because theres evil shit out there in the world
but fortunately we are equipped to deal with it
because were marauders + prefect girl
with a future son sidekick
we cant fail

in short: get out of it potter
get out of it and go out there and get that girl for god queen & country
because youve got to. and thats it.

see my first response would be yes.
but then you take it a step too far and I start second guessing my answer but as far as I know
in this moment
yes as in never ever I do believe you're stuck with me for life now :)
I hope that was your intention
because even if it wasn't you've signed the contract what's done is done.

I'm not being an idiot
I'm just actually thinking about this rather than just going after it because now I know what happens
it's not so much fun when you know where you're headed
this is the reason they don't let you take the time turners forward you know

she doesn't hate me
from what I can tell at least
but it's all muddled with the future and Harry and her actual thoughts versus what she's told she thinks

but merlin, sirius.
I do believe you not only complimented me, but also evans, in that single message.
I can't tell if I should feel flattered or shocked
but what are you saying about secretly? last I checked it was fairly obvious

no, Voldemort comes and kills us because we have a child who is apparently supposed to kill him
and who
does
but the point is he kills us and tries to kill Harry because
I don't know
it's all a mess and knowing almost makes it worse

[ okay so the rest of that is really difficult to argue with, but that could also be because james can't really see a good end to this conversation. just move right along, right? ]

and after
it's just
actually nevermind
I blame this ship I'm too bored
spending too much time in my room staring up at the ceiling and finding reasons to send you ❤❤❤❤❤s
and reading things on this little book thing but that gets tedious

wait

does this mean we need to plan a wedding?????
