When Lily heard '1978' she muttered, "Oh sweet Merlin." No wonder he didn't seem too over joyous about seeing her. They had been broken up for some time by now. He had been too... carefree? Wild? She wasn't sure the right term for it.
She tensed a bit under his hand and sat down on a nearby stool. She turned to the bartender and ordered a firewhiskey. Did they have that here? She quickly added "or the nearest thing to it."
How was she going to tell him what time period she had come from? "Well. It was October 1980 when I got pulled. I was at home." Vague was good. "I thought I was dreaming when I got here... maybe I had fallen asleep at home. Sirius had to convince me otherwise. I've seen him quite a bit since I arrived."
What else could she say, 'Oh in my time, we're married and just had our first baby?' Yeah, she didn't see that one going over well. Especially with this James.
