Recent improvements to his personality notwithstanding, Lily has learned to be just a little bit wary when Potter looks ... 'relaxed and content.'

If not quite as wary as it is necessary to be when he looks smug and pleased with himself.

"Having a good day, Potter?"

"Oh. It's been brilliant, Evans," says James with a grin.

He gestures to his shiny new badge.

"Join me, won't you?"

"Congratulations.

"Does this mean I'll be listening to Cliona complain about you next year?"

Lily takes the seat across from his.

"Thank you.

"And maybe," James allows, before adding (with a laugh), "though I hope not. I don't plan on becoming the next Quentin March. But I also really want Gryffindor to take the Cup. So ..."

... that may involve Quentin-like tactics on the occasion.

He shrugs innocently.

"D'you want anything to drink?"

"Mr. Potter."

The soft voice seems to have come from out of nowhere. As, in fact, its owner may just have.

Dumbledore pauses by James Potter's table.

"I do understand that congratulations are in order."

He nods at the silver badge.

Gah.

It still comes to James as a bit of a shock that the Headmaster of Hogwarts also comes to this place.

A couple of seconds is all it takes for him to regain his composure.

"Thank you, sir," he says. "It was a bit unexpected, to be honest. But I'm pleased, all the same."

Obviously.

Dumbledore smiles. It seems that it's always strange for young people to realize that old people have lives outside of offices and classrooms.

He had found that thought strange, a very long time ago.

Dumbledore raises an eyebrow.

"Is it?" he asks. "Why, pray tell? You are a commendable player."

He would know. The Headmaster attends every game, unless the sky is (metaphorically) falling.

James grins at the compliment.

It's high praise coming from the Headmaster.

"Well, I thought, since Aurelius Lomax is in his last year, it'd go to him. He's a brilliant Beater."

Though, now that James thinks about it, he doesn't exactly have the whole 'leadership' thing going for him.
