[Private to Regulus Black]
Regulus, I'd like to arrange a meeting with you at your convenience, just between the two of us. We could meet here at Hogwarts or somewhere in Hogsmeade if you feel more comfortable there. Let me know a date and we can arrange a time.

[Private to Remus Lupin]Please call me if Sirius gets into that state

I'm all right, I suppose. I've spent a lot of time outside... It's nice being able to walk around Hogsmeade without worrying about the Ministry coming to take me away. Remus has been cooking everything he knows I like, which I appreciate. Even if I'm not as hungry anymore.

You mean besides the fact that he murdered Albus Dumbledore, the ONLY man who ever trusted him? Well, let's see. He's a greasy, slimy, nasty little git who's only ever out for himself, he doesn't know what shampoo is (and wouldn't if it bit him on the arse), and he hates me in return. We've hated each other since we were eleven, mutually. James and I used to prank him all the time, and then he became a Death Eater. Dumbledore claimed he had changed, but I knew he hadn't. When Voldemort came back during Harry's fourth year, the Order got reassembled, and Snape was a part of it, and LOOK HOW THAT TURNED OUT. Now he's doing Merlin knows what with my brother, and there's little love between us. I'm sure he wants me dead just as much as I want him dead.

I... Merlin, Sirius. There are things going on that I can't tell you about yet, but please don't let your hatred for Severus be a wedge between you and your brother.

Regulus wants nothing to do with me, and I'm getting to the same point. Snape is the proverbial straw, for all intents and purposes.

Private to Sirius

[priscus_helga]

I'll talk to him.

Private to Helga

[sob_rightblack]

You really shouldn't bother. But if he insults you when you do, I will punch him.

THAT REMINDS ME. I still owe him a punch to the jaw for calling Remus a half-breed, the little prick.

Private to Sirius

[priscus_helga]

Do I have to sit on you again?

Private to Helga

[sob_rightblack]

No. I told him I would punch him for it. He shouldn't have called Remus that. At least he didn't call him a mu--well, still. He deserves it.

Private to Sirius

[priscus_helga]

No, he shouldn't have, but I don't think punching him is going to do anything good for your relationship.

Private to Helga

[sob_rightblack]

At this point there is very little that would do any good for our relationship.

Private to Sirius

[priscus_helga]

Except perhaps forgiveness.

Private to Helga

[sob_rightblack]

I am not about to forgive him for sneaking away to be with a traitor!

Private to Sirius

[priscus_helga]

Just because you hate him does not mean that Regulus does.

Private to Helga

[sob_rightblack]

I KNOW. And he's all the more an idiot for not!

Private to Sirius

[priscus_helga]

Is it at all possible that Severus is different with Regulus than he is with you?

Private to Helga

[sob_rightblack]

Less greasy? No, not likely. I don't care if he is or isn't; he's a traitor, a bastard, and he doesn't deserve every breath he gets to take.
