Like no one else in the whole wide world ever could.

In other words, nobody else can live up to the standards I set. Got it.

"When it comes to swaggering about he is unparalleled." Lily Evans, still terrified.

You can burn me as hard as you like, I'm already chargrilled on one side.

[lancifolium]

Honestly I figured you of all people would take it as a compliment.

[primevenison]

I have to keep you on your toes somehow, don't I?

[lancifolium]

Part of your allure?

[primevenison]

You said it, not me.

[lancifolium]

You're adjusting your hair and looking smug, aren't you?

[primevenison]

No!

[Yes.]

Has anyone ever told you you're very judgemental?

[lancifolium]

Sure James.

[ Sure Jan. ]

How rude. If I am, it's only after the evidence piles up.

[primevenison]

Well, that's just not true. You've been judging me since day one on the Express.

[lancifolium]

You've been causing chaos since day one on the Express.

[primevenison]

...

...

...Touche.

[lancifolium]

I can just imagine the smugness of your smile at this moment.

[primevenison]

Tempered a little bit by the burns thing, but you're probably not far off. :)

idk if you want to go to action but i'm in if you are!

[lancifolium]

Oh no your burns! James Potter, you distracted me, I'll be there in a minute.

[primevenison]

What can I say? I'm a very pleasant distraction.

[But also, he's very glad to meet Lily as soon as possible. His burns aren't anything life-threatening - after all, he didn't go to the Hospital Wing, and even James would do that if they were bad enough - but they do look pretty ugly, the brown skin of his hand bubbling up into unpleasantly pink blisters.]

[lancifolium]

Stay put, I'm coming to fix everything!

[ A minute or two later ]

Where are you?

[primevenison]

Lions common room. Might have passed out on Pete's bed last night.
