Sitting around a large table are six people, surrounded by books and magic paraphernalia.
Sirius and Lily are studying for their NEWTs, and the others are 'helping';
Mimi Marquez is staring in fascination at a model of the universe in a glass ball, poking it tentatively like she thinks it might explode or suck her in.
Hoban Washburne, who was never very good at taking school seriously (his own or other people's), is asking Sirius to explain Quidditch to him for the umpteenth time.
Danny Messer and Josh Lyman are actually doing their jobs; both of them are pretty well-educated, and big believers in the importance of homework. Josh has actually made flash cards, with the name of a spell or potion on one side and what it does on the other, and Danny is quizzing them on wrist movements.
All in all, they could probably do with an interruption.
