but then in 81 they all die, bar remus, sirius, peter and mary. but peter is "dead" and sirius is imprisoned and remus is alone and mary had obliviated herself...

but then imagine a few years later, mary is walking through Richmond Park with her younger, muggle brother and doesn't understand why she has been drawn to a tree with familiar names, lily, james, sirius...

Sirius: Uses his trauma as an excuse for not doing it. He gets away with it every time. He's actually too busy staring at Remus to write

Remus: Leaves it til the last minute but always excels in it. Struggles to concentrate since Sirius keeps staring

Peter: Makes the funkiest excuses why he hasn't done it and somehow gets away with it. like the famous "i was busy walking my fish"

James: Forgets about it and rushes it quickly before going to the lesson, sometimes leaving it half done or unfinished but gets marked well on the parts he completes

Lily: Hands it in before the due date but it's covered in doodles because she got bored doing it

Mary: Asks Lily for help just to spend time with her but no work actually gets done because they're too busy laughing and joking

Marlene: Doesn't usually do it but Mary and Lily force her to so she doesn't get detention. She always has to have music on in the background while doing it or she can't concentrate

Regulus: Does it on time, perfectly but always complains about doing it. Also complains when James gets detention for procrastinating his because it's 'less time' to spend together

Dorcas: Copies one of the other Skittles, mostly Regulus but she has to steal it since he doesn't like the thought of her getting into trouble for copying

Evan: Does it with Barty and passes

Barty: Does it with Evan and fails because he thinks homework is pointless. Disappoints teachers since he's intelligent but he always studies for real exams and gets great marks

Pandora: Starts the homework but somehow rambles her way into a different subject like the meaning of life and fuck knows what else. She could be writing an essay on polyjuice potions and then talk about the process on how caterpillars turn into butterflies...

Young Regulus: *hanging his dolls with string in his room while his teddies sit around him*

Young Sirius: *walks in* What the hell are you doing?!

Regulus: *shrugs* Public execution?

Sirius: Ok... Need help?

Regulus: *grins like a fucking demon*
