Memories of the Marauders

Finches and Cream

What the hell is a finch?~James

It's a type of bird.~Lily

Darwin found them in the Galapagos Islands and created the theory of evolution that is still used today.~Remus

Do you know what he just said?~Sirius

Not a clue.~James

Hey pass me the peaches and cream?~Peter

Sure thing, Wormtail.~Sirius

Well, as I was saying, I always wanted to see a finch. I read about them when I was younger, and how Darwin had seen how their beaks were all different sizes. I always thought that was pretty-.~Lily

Oh my god, please stop. It hurts my brain.~James

What brain?~Remus

Just ignore him. When I was eight I told my mom I wanted a pet finch. Naturally, she told me that would never happen. I remembered asking for one the other day, so I decided to send my mom a letter-.~Lily

I honestly don't care. Like, at all.~Sirius

Can you two please stop interrupting me?~Lily

I guess.~James

Thank you. Well I sent a letter and I'm just waiting for a reply back.~Lily

Cool story.~Remus

See, even Remus doesn't care.~James

Oh, shut up. I thought it was funny.~Lily

Hey, the owls are here.~Sirius

I hope I got something back.~Lily

I think you did, Lily. Look.~Remus

Ooh, a package.~Lily

What is it?~James

It's a- AHHH!

What is that thing!?~Sirius

I think that would be a finch.~Remus

Someone catch it!~Lily

Finches can fly?~ James

Well, duh, they can fly, idiot. They're birds~Sirius

Peter grab that finch!~Remus

Wha?~Peter

*splat*

Uh, I guess we caught it.~James

Aw. It landed in my peaches and cream.~Peter

Well, I guess we can call it finches and cream.~Lily

No.~James

Just no.~Sirius
