The Marauders vs. the Toaster
A MissMoony16 and MissPadfoot92 fic...
Summery: The Marauders are trying to use a Muggle toaster. They seem to be having some issues.
Disclaimer: We don't own the marauders; we don't even own a toaster.
James: So how does this contraption work again?
Peter: I've told you guys a million times already, you put in bread, pull down the lever, and up pops toast.
Sirius: But where does the bread go? And quit exaggerating, you only explained this to us 999,219 times.
Peter: (Smacks himself in the head)
Remus: Oh come on you guys, the thing must heat the bread and make it toast.
James and Sirius: I still don't get it.
Peter: Grrr. Just try it.
James: (Puts in the bread and pushes down the handle)
(They all wait in silence for 3.8 seconds)
Sirius: This is taking too long (puts heating spell on toaster)
(The toaster bursts into flames)
Peter: Ahhhhhhhh!!!!! We're all gonna die!!!!!!!
Remus: Oh shut up (Puts out flames with fire extinguisher then repairs the toaster with magic)
Peter: WE'RE SAVED!!!!!
(Others stare pointedly at Peter)
Peter: Well... um... thanks for fixing my toaster Remus. But... er... I don't think it's much use with those two around.
Sirius and James: (Whistle innocently)
(Peter chucks toaster into a trash can in the empty classroom they're in)
Remus: Yeah, even Snape isn't stupid enough to try to use one of those.
A day later in the in the depths of the Slytherin Common Room:
Lucius: So what you are saying Severus, is that bread goes in and toast comes out.
Snape: (Nods)
Bellatrix: But where does the bread go?
