thoughtformed | PSA: Rogue Broom on the Loose. Watch your head.

Alright, Moony.

This is what we will do when we find it:

You levitate me up to somewhere close to the broom, a little higher up, and then I'll fall - controlled - and land on the broom.

[Remus is just going to stare at you, Sirius. That is, without a doubt, the worst plan for catching a broom you have ever come up with.]

That's one thought. Here's another.

No.

[Well, it's better than the one he came up with when they were hunting the bludgers that escaped into the Forbidden Forest! It doesn't involve waiting for the full moon and letting a werewolf play fetch, for one thing.]

Oh, come on. Why not?

[You never let him have any fun ~~or morbid tendencies~~.]

[Worst.Friend.Ever.]

Well, for one, I do not really enjoy mending your bones. That spell only works right half of the time.

[Or did Sirius forget about the secret passages. The making of the Marauder's map, and Remus and James trying to fix Sirius' broken arm on their own when he broke it knocking that statue over. Because Remus has not forgotten wondering how they were going to explain it to the nurse when they had to drag him back to the infirmary. Good thing Remus was a much better liar than James and Sirius when it came to coming up with excuses.]

And for another, there are other ways far less likely to involve you falling through the air in an attempt to 'catch' a rogue broom just so you can show off for your crush.

You're a professor now, Moony, are you telling me you can't fix a few broken bones? ...or a possibly crushed skull?

[He has not entirely forgotten. And Sirius is very good at coming up with excuses! They are just usually very out there. On the plus side, by the time he's finished people very often forgot what the original issue even was.]

Please, if I wanted to show off to any crush I'd fly with my motorcycle with you behind me and jump over from there.

[Pause.]

Not a bad idea, actually, I should ask Kaylee how fast we can finish the motorcycle.

Wait.

What crush?

[He mentally goes over the people he recently flirted with. Sheska, Kate, Steph, Anita, ~~Bro~~, that Sailor Venus,...

Maybe he should consider flirting less.]

Before I go hunting for a rogue flying broom, which F-Y-I. Awesome.

What's your take on Finders, Keepers?

If you can ride it, you own it.

One minute minimum.

Deal. Though... question. Let's say I catch the broom. Ride the broom and stay on it for a whole minute...

How do I stop it exactly?

You could try landing...

Annnnd I would do that, how exactly? By saying Broom, stop in a forceful voice?

When I was a kid I used to stop my bike by riding it into a tree. I somehow doubt the same rule can apply here.

If you feel like it's about to attack you, it's not just paranoia talking.

It rarely is. I'm used to being attacked by all kinds of things, remember.

It's a broom, it'd be going after your dirty mind.

My mind is not dirty, jerk.

[He'll get back to you when he stops laughing.]

Too much passion, 'm afraid.

You should practice a little harder on that self control. I hear thinking about baseball helps.

What's baseball?

[She laughing now. She should have remembered he would have any idea what she's talking about.]

It's a game. You hit a ball with a stick and... It's way better than it sounds.

Don't worry about it. He's not getting anywhere.

Far as I recall, you were the one unable to hold back.

The broom.
