I think this is my second favorite of yours so far (Running Close to the Ground being first and Icarus being third.)
I love your addition of Lily (it's one of the reasons I liked Icarus so much, besides the fact that it was hilarious.) Lily is usually ficced so two-dimensionally that she's kind of boring to read. I guess it's not that surprising considering her job in the books is to be dead and perfect. I'm always trying to write her and failing.
I really liked the way you created the awkwardness between the five. Bad jokes, Peter trying to impress Lily, Sirius being an idiot, James in love and Remus as narrator and the perfect observer because he's so darned together.
