[HP] Can you be gentle with me

The four of them quickly changed the subject, and the atmosphere gradually became active as they chatted, without being as heavy as before. They chatted while walking, and then they talked about Quidditch somehow.

"Tahlia, you haven't played Quidditch, have you?" James asked excitedly.

"No." Tahlia replied. "But I read the book that was introduced..."

"How can reading a book be enough?" James said excitedly. "We'll have flying lessons in a few days, and the school will have an inter-house Quidditch competition! Then we'll definitely win the championship!"

"Ahem..." Tahlia cleared her throat. "Let me remind you, James...we're not in the same house."

"Ah," James rubbed his head in embarrassment. "I forgot again..."

"But in previous years, almost all Slytherins won the Quidditch championship..." Sirius said flatly. "Otherwise it would be Ravenclaw too, and you probably won't have a chance."

"Who said that!" James retorted loudly. "That's because I haven't joined the team yet! Wait for my second year...I'll make Gryffindor win!"

"James, are you good?" Tahlia asked. "I mean... Quidditch."

"Of course." James puffed out his chest. "My dad used to be the captain of Quidditch, just watch, I will definitely be selected for the team!"

"Yes yes yes..." Sirius smirked. "At that time, I will also go to the screening, and I will not put water on you during the competition..."

"Go! Who asked you to release the water?" James thumped Sirius on the shoulder. "You never beat me..."

"That's because I've never fought you seriously!" Sirius said not to be outdone.

"Nonsense! You obviously lost completely..."

"You're just talking nonsense! I obviously..."

Seeing the two bickering again, Tahlia decisively pulled Remus away from them, and would follow them after they had had enough quarreling.

"...they really..." Okay? Remus finished silently in his mind.

"Relax." Tahlia smiled. "Didn't you see it yesterday? They will be ready in a while." She suddenly remembered that there were some books in her schoolbag that she had finished reading, and she planned to return them and borrow new ones. "I'm going to the library, are you going?"

"No." Remus shook his head. "I want to go back to my room and take a nap. Although I didn't fall asleep in the history of magic like James did in the morning, I was tired enough..."

"Okay," Tahlia said. "Then tell Sirius for me later, just say we'll meet you in the lobby for dinner, thank you." After speaking, he waved to Remus and hurried towards the library.

"Where's Tahlia?" Sirius asked after the two men who had returned to normal caught up with Remus, but he didn't see Tahlia.How come she disappeared in such a short time.

"She said she wanted to go to the library," Remus said. "Maybe I want to borrow a new book... Sirius, she said I'll meet you in the lobby for dinner."

"Speaking of halls…" James said. "Why didn't you two come to dinner last night?"

Sirius chuckled a few times. "We did go, but at that time you had already left..." he said. "Yesterday we lost track of time..."

"How could…?" Remus said. "Dinner time is so long, I thought James and I were late in the hall for dinner..."

"Tahlia over-read, and I overslept too..." Sirius waved his hand, he wouldn't tell that Snape gave him dinner, what a shame! "...In short, we managed to catch up."

"Well, you can have dinner anytime, don't miss it..." James said.After a pause, he spoke again. "Especially Tahlia, she looks too short, she should eat more to grow taller..."

Sirius rolled his eyes rudely. "It's her own business that Tahlia is not tall, you should pay attention to Lily..."

"Yo, are you jealous?"

Sirius punched James with a fist. "Who is jealous? You are jealous!"

Remus saw Sirius's instantly red neck from the side, smiled and said nothing, it turned out that the lover James mentioned yesterday was Sirius...but the person involved didn't seem to realize it yet.

"Okay, I'm going back to the dormitory first, where are you going?" Remus said. "I want to take a nap..."

"We..." Sirius looked at James and smiled brightly. "Of course it's an adventure! Right, James?"

"Of course!" James said, with a look of anticipation on his face. "If you want to travel at night, of course you have to find out the castle first!"

"Night tour...?" Remus' eyes widened.

"How can a Hogwarts student never swim at night?" Sirius puffed out his chest. "This is my duty as a student..."

"Really...?" Remus was confused. "I... I thought night tours were forbidden..."

James hooked Remus' shoulders, although it was a bit difficult for him to get on Remus who was much taller than him given his height. "I said buddy, school rules are made to be broken."

Remus smiled helplessly, pulled James away and said. "Okay, I see, don't you just stay up at night and walk around?" He looked at James, who was rubbing the arm he had just hooked on Remus. "Aren't you tired?"

"It's a little sour," James said, looking at him sadly. "What are you doing so tall? How convenient to hook up like Tahlia..." Suddenly, he covered his head. "Oh! Sirius! Why is that?"

Slowly withdrawing the hand that hit James hard, Sirius spoke slowly. "She wasn't born to be hooked by you...I want to make it easier for myself to grow taller!"

Remus smiled. "Yeah, James, Tahlia can't be casual," he gave Sirius a meaningful look. "You'd better go find Lily..."

James shook his head hastily. "That's not acceptable! How could I behave so ungentlemanly towards Lily..."

"That would be fine for Tahlia..." Sirius smiled.He clenched his fists together and pressed his knuckles together. "Are you getting impatient?"

"Huh? Wait... Sirius! I didn't mean that... Ah! Help... Remus, save me!" James ran around with his head in his arms, why didn't Remus rush to save him?Little did he know that Remus was just watching the show from the sidelines, and had no intention of coming to rescue him at all. It was too much, and Sirius was indeed the one who had a goddess and forgot his brother!

After a while, the two sat against the wall panting.

Remus looked at them gravely. "I'm going back...don't make a fuss too much..." he said. "I don't want to hear the news that you two had a duel at night."

"Forget it..." James waved. "I won't be killed by him if I fight a duel." After all, Sirius was raised as the heir of the Black family since he was a child, and many abilities have been well trained.The Potters, on the other hand, adopted a free-ranging policy for James, allowing him to develop freely, and James was happy to be at ease, but the result was that Sirius would beat him all over the head every time he fought.

"Just know." Sirius snorted.

"See you at dinner then?" Remus asked.

"Yeah." The two replied.

Tahlia shuttled between the rows of bookshelves, holding a lot of books in her hands. She looked at the books on the bookshelves regretfully. She should have brought an extra bag to pack them. Now she can’t carry them anymore. She sighed He took a deep breath, turned and walked out of the row of bookshelves, but was hit by an oncoming person.

"Oh!" The books in Tahlia's hand were scattered all over the floor.She quickly squatted down to rescue his books, and didn't bother to see who hit her.

"Preparation of Sophisticated Potions?" Snape's voice suddenly came from overhead, and Tahlia looked up and saw him looking at a book on the ground with a strange expression. "Did you read "Preparation of Sophisticated Potions"?" Did he make a mistake?It was a difficult potions book even for senior students, and they were only first years, so how could they be in Tahlia's pile of books.

"What? Oh, you said this..." Tahlia recovered, looking where Snape's eyes were pointing. "I haven't read it yet, I'm about to borrow it back..." She continued to pick up other books and held them carefully in her arms. "Have you seen it?"

Snape nodded.

"Oh, that's great!" Tahlia's face lit up. "Then your potions must be powerful! May I ask you a question?"

"I'm not a Potions Master," Snape said flatly. "I think our dean should be happy to answer your questions."

Tahlia touches her head. "Okay...Since you don't want to, I just want to say that it's more convenient to ask your classmates..." She said awkwardly. "What book are you looking for?"

"Defense Against the Dark Arts." Snape replied flatly.

"Ah, then you might have a look at this one!" Tahlia shoved the book into Snape's hand. "Wait for me for a while!" After finishing speaking, without waiting for the black-faced Snape to refuse, she hurried to the bookshelf at the back, and soon came back with a somewhat old book. She first took it with some difficulty. Excitedly shoved the book into Snape's hand. "Sorry..." Then he handed the old book to Snape slowly without disturbing the balance of the book in his hand. "This... I think it makes a lot of sense."

Snape took it, the title of the gilded book on the cover was a little faded, and some couldn't read the title clearly, he flipped through it briefly, and found that the explanation was really in place, while deepening the content of their textbook, he also listed some black and white Examples of magic, he was a little surprised that she would recommend him this book.

"You..." For the first time, he was stunned and didn't know what to say.

"I think what the professor just said is not right, but I thought this book was very meaningful when I read it before, or do you think this book is too old?" Tahlia said. "I have a new one over there. I bought it at the bookstore myself. If you want it, can I bring it to you?"

"No, no need," Snape said quickly. "That's alright." He asked tentatively. "Do you also think there are many mistakes in what the professor said just now?"

"Isn't it? I don't think he understood the textbook at all..." Tahlia said seriously.

"Hmm," Snape murmured. "I thought no one thought that..."

"What?" Tahlia asked again, missing Snape's murmur.

"No," Snape said. "Thank you for the book, I'm leaving."

"You're welcome...you're welcome..." Tahlia said, but before she could finish, Snape walked away again like a gust of wind, as if he had never been here to speak to her just now.She silently closed her mouth, wiped her nose and left the library with a book in her hand.

Tahlia went back to her room to put her book away before going to the hall.He saw that Sirius was already waiting there, and there was an empty seat next to him.She went and sat down. "Hey, where did you go?"

Sirius whispered mysteriously. "James and I just discovered a secret passage!" His tone couldn't hide his excitement. ""I'll take you to see it another day... We didn't have time to go in, but it seems that it will lead to the outside of the castle! "

Tahlia nodded.It turns out that there are really many secret passages in the castle, and they were discovered by the two of them just like that. I have to say that Tahlia is really looking forward to seeing the secret passages of the castle with her own eyes.
