Gibbon's nostrils have gotten so big, James is almost certain he can actually see the whoosh of air getting breathed in and out of them.
"He'll take up all the oxygen in this compartment, the way he keeps going on," says James, laughing.
Mulciber has been taken down by a combination of James' jelly-finger curse (which has allowed James to kick his wand away) and Sirius' leg-locking curse. He hits his head as he falls, knocking him out cold.
Baddock was a little harder to stop. She managed to graze James with one of her curses, singeing off one of his eyebrows, but Sirius Stunned her just before she could do more damage.
Of course, not before he was hit to one side by an ear-shrivelling curse, courtesy of Gibbon. Sirius' right ear is currently smaller than his left.
"Right. Two more down, one to go," says Sirius, grinning gleefully, looking unbothered by it.
James runs a hand through his hair to get it out of his eyes (he probably needs a cut, come to think of it) and nods.
"You'll leave Lily Evans alone, Gibbon. You and your slimy, useless mates," he says.
Gibbon snarls another curse, wand pointed in his direction, which James recognizes immediately.
Because it'd been used before; and quite recently, too.
On Mary Macdonald.
Before James can move out of the way, he feels his robes constricting over his body, growing smaller and smaller until he starts to gasp.
In the midst of losing all ability to breathe, his vision going hazy, he can hear himself shouting, "Impedimenta!" at the same time that Sirius shouts something.
