"I don't like the redheaded woman daddy," Selena confessed. "she is too loud."
"That she is." Harry nodded as he sat on his bed, the Potter family grimoire in his left hand as Selena was wrapped around his arm with her head resting on his hand.
"I don't like how she talks to you, you should punish her." Selena suggested.
"Don't worry about me girl," Harry stopped reading and smiled at her, he put his book down and began stroking her. "daddy has everything under control. It doesn't matter if the redheaded woman stops them from telling me anything."
"Why?"
"Because I already know," Harry smirked. "listening charm on Sirius's clothes plus the listening charm under the table plus Dobby and Kreatcher have good hearing, they just pretend to clean outside of the room and listen in. You would know if you paid attention when I told them."
"Sorry daddy."
"It's alright, I understand how you were too busy eating but you should try and be aware of your surroundings." Harry said right before a knock was heard on the door, Selena quickly changed back into her tattoo form. "I am coming." Harry said in English as he got up and walked to the door. Harry slowly opened it to find the Weasley twins standing outside of his door.
"Hey Harry." Fred said in a soft voice.
"Can we talk?" George added.
"Fine." Harry said after a short pause, the twins were about to walk in when Harry stepped out of the room and closed the door.
"What? You're not inviting us in?" Fred asked.
"Nope, don't really trust you two to not use the opportunity to prank me." Harry shrugged. "Now what do you want?"
"First of all, don't you think you were a bit harsh on mum?" Fred asked.
"No, I was being honest, I might have worded it better if she hadn't pissed me off by being mean to Sirius. Now what else?"
"Look, we were wondering if Sirius perhaps told you something he shouldn't have." George said. "You know, about the order."
"Let me guess, you two want to know more about the order and you want in." Harry guessed.
"Yeah, pretty much."
"Why?" Harry asked.
"What do you mean why?" Fred frowned.
"Why do you want in? Why should I tell you anything about the order? Why should the order accept you two?"
"Well first of all the order is where the action is." Fred said.
"Second of all perhaps you should tell us because we're friends." George added. "And what do you mean why should they accept us? We're legally adults."
"First of all, friends? No, my only friends in Gryffindor at the moment are the chasers and Ginny."
"We...we thought you would have gotten over the tournament." Fred said. "The chasers too but they're still not talking to us."
"Yeah," George added. "I mean you hall ad to know we were joking."
"That is the problem, that is all you do." Harry said. "I was in a tournament for wizards and witches older and more trained than me, one where I could have died, one that got the whole school to turn on me and all you two did was joke about it. Do you realise how many people thought I actually was in the tournament because of you two? They figured that if you were joking about it then I was obviously being a smug prick who was laughing with all of Gryffindor about how I managed to cheat Dumbledore and the goblet."
"We're sorry Harry," George said. "but we..."
"I am not done." Harry cut him off. "Your pranks, your jokes, they were funny at first but trust me when I say they have gotten really stale. Pranks are great and all, but when you do it non-stop and when your victims do not like or appreciate pranks then it turns into bullying."
"We're not bullies!" Fred said, offended by Harry's words.
"Oh no?" Harry raised an eyebrow. "I remember in my third year when you two pranked a bunch of Slytherin first years and I saw one girl crying, I am sure she had a great time enjoying your pranks. Pranking can be bullying you know, especially if your target is far weaker than you and does not like pranks."
"Come on Harry," George said, shifting on his feet. "the marauders were pranksters too you know. That means your dad and Sirius."
"I look at the Marauders a little differently." Harry responded. "Pranks were probably the only way they could get back at the DE's to be during Voldemort's rise to power, and let's say it wasn't and they really were just like you and loved pranking people. Well my father is dead, Sirius lost years of his life in Azkaban, Remus can't get a job because he's hated by nearly everyone and Peter is currently in an Azkaban cell. Yeah, life really worked out for them, didn't it?
Plus you two have spent pretty much all of your lives being pranksters but now you want your parents to suddenly start treating you seriously and induct you into an organisation for fighting the worst dark lord of all time? Tell me, what important things have you done outside of quidditch and pranks?" Harry asked, he paused and waited for several moments but the twins did not answer. "That's what I thought, I'll be honest when I say that Sirius hasn't told me anything important about the order. Now if you'll excuse me, some of us have bigger stuff to worry about than what the next prank will be." Harry said before he turned around and went back into his room before closing the door.
Harry sighed before he walked back in and sat on his bed.
