These muggles and their awful mirth was going to be Sidney's undoing. he couldn't stand to see so many people happy, given the choice he would have preferred to watch them all suffer. The way they were pawing at each other, making such a horrible scene! It was absolutely uncouth and Sidney could only pray they wouldn't brush into him as he walked past. He had never liked being handled by anyone, whether accidental or on purpose ( ... )

"Well I certainly hope that isn't the only goal of your life. From the way you were talking it seems as if you've already achieved that goal over and over, I should think you'd want to challenge yourself a little by now. After all, it isn't very difficult to delude Sidneys." If given the choice, Sidney would say it was probably a very bad thing for him, for as little as he knew about Montague, he could easily say that being on his bad side didn't seem like a good idea. The problem was there was very little one could say without angering, upsetting or otherwise annoying the older man. Not that he knew any of this, Montague had behaved surprisingly amicable that evening. Still, Sidney decided that if they saw each other again he would keep his attitude in check ( ... )

Interestingly enough, the Sidney boy had been going down the path of confusing Montague more and more. And he both liked and disliked the feeling. He was proud of being usually able to tell a person apart very quickly, but Sidney's case was proving to be a jumble of irreconcilable contradictions. How could such a spoiled and bratty pureblood Slytherin harbour such uncharacteristically naive thoughts about life, universe and everything in between?

"Let me ask you a counter-question then, Sidney," he said, continuing their conversation. It was, uncharacteristically, interesting to him and he was genuinely curious as to the other's answers. "Why would you need that companionship anyway? Being unable to stand on your own is dependency and weakness, and if love brings that companionship-- I doubt I would need it anyway. Besides, do you not think that even needing someone is already so very un-Slytherinly? What were you taught, my friend?" He snorted derisively. "As for my wife, we have the world's greatest sex and nothing more." Montague ( ... )

Sidney harboured such thoughts simply because nothing had ever happened in his life that would cause him to change his perspective. Sure, his parents were awfully neglectful but that didn't take away from his notion of perfect love because he understood that the way they treated him wasn't perfect. Sidney may not have had friends but at the same time he never longed for them, much preferring to entertain himself. He was young, cute and intelligent enough to string a sentence together, his life was much easier than those that didn't possess those qualities. Even in stores and restaurants, where he was quite demanding if not a bit bratty, he got more respect from the staff than he earned. So far his life had been sunshine and rainbows compared to other kids his age who were forced to experience war, money problems and all the other nasty aspects of growing up that seemed to skip right over Sidney ( ... )
