◇ I'm Croaking Up Over Here

Who: Remus Lupin, James Potter, And Anyone Else
Where: One of the Hallways of the mansion.
When: Dec. 2nd
Rating: The Thread rated C for Chocolate Frogs (No seriously though, this is a harmless thread)
Summary: Remus discovers you can, in fact, get chocolate frogs from the Closets.
The Story:

It was completely innocent at first. Remus and James had been trying to charm their own chocolate frogs for a while, with... mixed results.

Asking about them is a dangerous endeavor, and the answers include a lot of knowing inside grins at jokes and horror stories they could tell about it. But long story short, it just isn't that easy to give chocolate the hopping capabilities of a frog. Not to mention neither James or Remus were apparently quite talented enough, artistically, to make a proper frog. So when and if the did hop, they did so off balance and looked more than a little unwieldy.

Still, they tried. Points for Effort. Remus wasn't ready to give up quite yet, but all the false chocolate frogs left him craving a real one.

That was where the innocent fun became this full scale chaos. A pile of chocolate frog boxes stacked haphazardly in a mountain at one end of the hall, while chocolate frogs with numbers etched in their backs are set loose on the floor.

That's right. Chocolate Frog Racing. The way only marauders could organize it.

At the moment, Remus is a little busy trying to hold his sides in as the frogs go every direction but the simple straight one they were intended to. Good luck if you were turning down the hall or coming out of a doorway. You just might end up with a chocolate frog or two on you.

Sugar is tasteless for Toothless — or sweet things are, to be more specific. He chews and swallows, but like the confections he'd raided from America's birthday party he can't get anything from them. They must be for show, he figures, puzzled, before looking up at Remus' approach.

The Viking isn't familiar, but he thinks he's caught wafts of his scent before.

As for the question, Toothless gives Remus a very distinct nod. They're very intriguing little not-frogs. Maybe he'd like actual frogs better, but that wouldn't be nearly as good a show for Henry.
