* Lips thought that if he got detention one more time, he'd receive a Howler from his dad. "Hey, don't be sad. It's just a Howler. Sirius gets one every term!" James Potter slung an arm around his shoulders and said with a grin. "What's the big deal? I can recite everything my mum says by heart." Sirius Black casually flicked his hair.

If you get detention again this term, it'll last until the end-of-term exams," Remus Lupin said. "R-Right! Sirius is a Black, after all!" said little Peter Pettigrew.

Original male protagonist, a Malfoy and a Slytherin. 2. His pairing will probably be with one of the Black brothers. Set during the Marauders' era. 3. No character bashing.

I love starting new stories, and if I feel like it, I'll write more. I can't rule out going on hiatus x. Please nudge me to update in that case; comments and bookmarks can both motivate this lazy author. But don't ask me to update other stories here, or this one under other stories. I will finish it. 5.
