Remus and Severus Trial Scenario
This was not good. Not good at all. Remus’s eyes darted from side to side, seeking out the nearest exits. James and Sirius had already escaped, the gits, leaving him looking like the guilty party. He was sure it wasn’t intentional, but had he been forewarned that they were plotting a prank, he might have been able to plan a good excuse, alibi or even escape route. But here they were, in an empty corridor with Severus covered in some kind of very smelly, slimy goo.
The brunettes eyes settled on a tapestry; ah, so that’s where they’d disappeared to. However, if he tried to escape now not only would he tip Severus off as to a secret passage, but he’d leave his back open to attack and possibly get trapped in the passageway (the other end was blocked with a bookcase, that could be shifted with a latch). “Ah...” he tried a disarming smile. “I guess Peeves is loitering around here, hey Sni---Severus?” the nickname Snivellus was on the tip of his tongue, but he managed to save it. Remus tried to blame the incident on the castles resident poltergeist (who, in all fairness, did actually pull silly pranks like this).
