SIRIUS BLACK: 20 October, 1971

Dear Regulus,

Sorry for not writing for so long, but things just keep getting busier here. Why haven’t you written back to me? You’d think that school wouldn’t be much fun, but the lads and I get along really well and even though we still have to go to lessons, it’s not horrible. Plus, the food is actually pretty good ( Read more... )

What sort of things do the tea cups do?

Little Sirius is adorable, but *wibbles* that Regulus doesn't write back. Is mummy Black getting rid of the letters?

Bite. Squirt tea at you. The usual sorts of stuff.

Thank you and yes... you have that right. Mrs Black is doing her "Motherly" duty, as it were.

Really? *wrinkles his nose* I didn't know tea cups usually did that sort of thing.

*pets Sirius* I feel so sorry for him and Regulus.

Most of them don't. Only some of them do - the fun sort. *looks him over* Don't you know how to have fun?

They are tragic little bunnies, aren't they? I so wish they could have had a chance.

*looks affronted* Of course I do! I just didn't know you could get tea cups that bite people. I don't think that sounds fun, I think that sounds cruel.

Yeah. And ones that sing or run around on the table, but those are sort of boring after a while.

*folds his arms* Could be cruel. Unless they deserve it.

Really? I think they sound nice! I'd like tea cups that sang.

*mutters* Like Bellatrix. She deserves to be bitten by tea cup.

*shrugs again*
*grudgingly* I suppose they're alright.

*looks at him consideringly before answering*
Yeah. I'd agree with that.

Just because you'd probably like someone getting a face full of tea better.

*grins*
Isn't she horrible? She's always around my brother. They're supposed to be getting married!

*small smirk*
No. I'd rather see someone else get a face full of tea rather than listen to a cup sing.

*tentative smile*
Yeah. She's horribly mean all the time. Says things you can't really call her out for but they're mean all the same.
*lip curls*
Ugh. I don't ever want to get married. Especially not to someone like her.

But what if they got burnt? Or it went in their eye? I'd rather have the singing cup.

*nods quickly*
Yes, and she does things that you know are her but no-one will believe you about them, but I know she did them!
*beams*
Me neither! And I don't have to if Rodolphus gets married.

Do you like cats?

And Sirius is the good guy and Rab's the Death Eater? Sure.

*shrugs again*
What're healing spells for?

Yeah. *frowns*
She broke my brother's toy broom when he was little and he still thinks I did it.
*frowns more, folding his arms*
*lowers his voice*
Father says I have to, but I don't want to.

Erm. *blinks at the sudden question*
They're alright, I guess.
Well, tea cups aside, I think it all comes down to the question of Crucio. ;) *giggling*

*makes an aggrieved noise*
Shouldn't do it in the first place - its one thing to scare someone but something else completely to hurt them.

That's awful! She hexed me, but no-one would believe me. They said I was telling stories.
*eyes wide*
Why don't you want to?

*beams, and offers his hand*
Good! Then we can be friends.

*giggles* Oh, but there's some nasty sadistic planning behind the tea cups.

*rolls his eyes*
*lip curls*
Are you a girl or something?

Yeah. *fiddles with his hair* She hexes people all the time. She turned all of my things purple once and I got a hiding because Father thought I'd done it.
*shrugs*
It's stupid. Plus, I don't like any of my cousins and I bet they'd make me marry one of them, like Mother and Father.

*looks dubiously at his hand, but eventually unfolds his arms and takes his hand reluctantly*
Whatever.

Never said Sirius was a saint. ;P

*pouts*
Of course I'm not a girl. I'm just sensible, that's all. Anyway, you look more like a girl than I do - your hairs all girly.

*bites his lip*
I'm sorry. She is horrible, but she's marrying into my family. She's going to live with me! At least you're getting rid of her.

*wrinkles his nose*
Your parents are cousins? *pulls a face, sticking his tounge out* That's wrong.

*shakes Sirius's hand, obviously not really listening to his less than enthusiastic statements*

*pulls a face which quickly turns stony at the mention of his hair*

*unconcerned by Rab's complaints*
She never lived with me. She's my cousin, not my sister. And now we're going to have to have dinner with your family on holidays too.

*face goes cold, eyes flashing, hand going to his wand*
I think maybe you'd better take that back if you want to keep your face how it is right now.
