[HP Deer Dog] Speed ​​and Magic

Sirius woke up from his deep sleep, feeling a dull ache all over his body.His sleeping position is not very good, which seems to be a direct result of his tendency to stiff neck.And last night he gave up his bed.Spending the night on the sofa in your bedroom is not as comfortable as you might imagine.He pushed away the messy blankets around him and looked at the bed on the other side, which was already empty. To his surprise, the quilt on the bed was folded neatly. He frowned in annoyance, still drowsy out of the bedroom.

Oh, and then he saw James.

James was sitting there wrapped in a bath towel, his wet and messy hair was slumped listlessly at the moment, and the falling water droplets kept dripping on his bare shoulders and the bronze-colored skin exposed on his chest, where there were still faint traces of the werewolf The traces of a melted Lupine recovering from scratches.His glasses were off and placed by the table, which was why he was squinting and playing with a set of soldier models on the table that Sirius had bought as gifts for the Weasley children.Apparently, James seemed to find this thing quite amusing.

Sirius was standing by the door, in a dilemma, it was so strange, it was his house, and he didn't know what to do.

"Hey, are you awake?" James looked up and smiled, his smile was exactly the same as Sirius remembered: "Thank you for taking me in yesterday, I rarely drink so much."

"You're welcome." Sirius suppressed his excitement and said calmly, or rather, he hoped that he looked calm, and hoped that his trembling hands did not reveal anything.

"I hope you don't mind that I can't go right away, I just washed my clothes before they were dried... It's strange that you don't have a washing machine and dryer..." James ruffled his hair and rubbed more There were too many drops of water, he smiled a little shyly: "I made you breakfast, just take it as thank you."

"You can cook?" Sirius said in surprise, the fact that seemed to have a stronger shock than James sitting in his house wrapped in a towel.

He soon saw coffee and pancakes on the table. It was a miracle. He hadn't touched anything in the kitchen since Sirius' uncle left the house to him. He would only go in to see what happened when there were cockroaches.

Sirius hesitated for a moment, debating whether to put a drying charm on James' clothes, but on the other hand he thought it was fine, so he sat down at the table and picked up a pie.They tasted alright, although not as good as what Hogwarts supplies.

"So..." James coughed in embarrassment, "I don't know your name yet?"

"Sirius. You can just call me Sirius." Sirius said, also feeling a little at a loss: "Then, James..."

"You know my name?" James said.

"You introduced yourself last night." Sirius lied, but on the other hand he didn't, James did introduce himself.

James thought for a while and smiled: "I probably have a little impression. I still remember you said that you used to go to school elsewhere and only came back recently."

"Yes." Sirius nodded.

"Okay then, we'll be friends from now on." James stretched out his hand to him and said friendlyly, "Go out and play together sometime."

"Okay." Sirius put down the coffee in a panic, and held James's widened palm. He felt that his palm was a little wet, and felt that his attitude was a bit too exaggerated. He secretly hoped that James would say nothing. suspicion.

It turns out he was overthinking.James let go of his hand and said casually, "This feels really weird."

"Huh?" Sirius looked at him nervously.

"I mean, waking up to find yourself in a strange man's house." James said, "Almost scared to death... well, although I didn't say how nice it would be to wake up and find yourself in a girl's house. You often have Is this kind of experience?"

"You mean to bring drunk strangers home?" Sirius spread his hands: "No, maybe I drank too much last night, and then when I woke up, I found a strange man in my house with only a towel on. Didn't say how nice it would be to wake up and find a girl in the house with a bath towel on."

The two laughed foolishly at this stupid conversation, and the atmosphere became much more relaxed.

"Aren't your parents here?" James asked.

When this topic was mentioned, Sirius' face darkened a bit: "Not here, but it's not because of my return or their work...I ran away from home the year before last."

"Ah, sorry."

"It's nothing." Sirius became clearer and shrugged his shoulders: "I worked outside for a while, and then my uncle passed away and left the house and most of the property to me. My cousin—his Daughter, it's good for me, she's married

It is. ”

And you should know all this information.Sirius said with some bitterness in his heart.

"Cool." James nodded vigorously: "You are amazing."

Then they chatted about more stuff.Sirius mobilized all the things he learned working with Muggles during the two summers to have this conversation. They talked about their favorite team (not Quidditch, of course), recent movies, working experience... Maybe James didn't expect them to talk so much. When he found that the clothes on the window sill had dried unconsciously, he showed a surprised expression: "Time flies so fast."

"Yeah." Sirius said sincerely regretting that he was very happy that the passing of time and memory had not caused the distance between him and James, and they could still be as close as ever.

James changed his clothes and left his home address, although Sirius knew his address by heart, he was still glad that James could write it down on paper.

"Come to my house when you have time. My mother's pancakes are much more delicious than mine."

I know.Sirius smiled and said in his heart.

Not long after James left, Sirius heard the doorbell again. At first he thought it was James who had returned. When he opened the door and saw Lupine, he couldn't help but let out a sigh of regret.

"Sorry" Lupine raised his eyebrows at the sigh, "Did I bother you?"

"No," said Sirius. "The bad thing is there's nothing worth disturbing. Come in, Remus."

He let Lupine into the room, and he could see that he was curious and puzzled by the pancakes on the table, but he didn't explain anything, and of course, Lupine didn't ask anything.

"I heard you came here. So come and see." Lupine's condition after graduation is not very good, maybe in school, he can hide the fact that he is a werewolf with the help of Headmaster Dumbledore, but Society is obviously more severe and complicated than he imagined.

"Thank you." Sirius said sharply, "I just don't think the Ministry of Magic and Dumbledore seem to need my help. So I plan to focus on my private life."

"Come on. We're all having a hard time during this time," Lupine said with a wry smile.

Sirius was noncommittal.He knew that strictly speaking, like Lupine, he had a lot of black history, and he came from the pure-blood Black family, and this family had publicly pledged their allegiance to the Dark Lord not long ago. "Bad Influence", Regulus had become a member of the alternate Death Eaters early on.In addition, he was a Slytherin, and even though his life at school was terrible later, it couldn't fundamentally change this matter.

The only thing that can make him feel relieved now is that James has been found, and this is also the most important thing.

"Would you like to have a drink?" He looked at Lupine's tired eyes: "Then go to the guest room to sleep? I think you are not in good spirits."

"It's daytime now." Lupine said helplessly, but he admitted that he was really tired and needed Sirius to lend him his bed: "Thank you, I have a long journey tonight."

Sirius patted him on the shoulder reassuringly. This old friend may often compromise with the dilemma, but Sirius knew very well that he never gave up hope of integrating into society.This may seem unfair.Sirius mused that he had now found James again, but Lupine seemed to have nothing.

However, life is often so unfair.It seems that no one can change it.

He stopped Lupine: "Wait, Remus."

Lupine was picking up the blankets on the sofa, and turned to look at him suspiciously.

Sirius was sorting out his thoughts, and he said slowly: "I'm thinking, if we plan to join Dumbledore, or join the Ministry of Magic, we must at least show them an attitude."

"What do you mean?" Lupine asked.

"We can look for some clues of Death Eaters and take the initiative to attack. There is no difficulty. If they don't want to take us, we will do it alone. Now is the critical moment of the conflict between Voldemort and the Ministry of Magic. Who cares about those boring and cumbersome comments, maybe They only want one result." Sirius said excitedly with a slightly guiding tone: "Think about it, Remus, if we succeed, no one will doubt us under various names anymore."

Lupine replied hesitantly: "Let me think about it, Sirius." He took a quick look at the other party and said hesitantly: "I want to say, you seem to be different today."

"I'm the same today, nothing different." Sirius lied.

"Perhaps." Lupine was not quite convinced.

He and Sirius met in their second year at Hogwarts because of a complicated accident, and even more unexpectedly became friends.Having said that, Lupine never knew if a friend was a good way to describe his relationship with Sirius.In other words, he knew Sirius, he was pretty much the closest thing Sirius had to him during the next five years at school, but Lupine felt he never really got to know him, there was always a safe distance between them, making sure he What is on your mind will not be known by the other party.For example, honesty between friends is very important, but they are different. They are well aware of each other's lies, but never expose them. Rather, they are both willing to use lies to cover up things that may be seen through. .That's how the relationship has survived to this day.

But at least Lupine understood Sirius's behavior better than anyone else after being together for quite a long time.

Lupine knew that Sirius had always been in a passive state against the Death Eaters and Voldemort's struggle, which was very different from the rumors he had heard about Slytherin's aliens.But today, that Sirius seems to be back.

"If it works, I'd really like to try it." Lupine lay on the bed, thinking boldly, until another self jumped out and laughed at his delusion, and then sleepiness and exhaustion kept coming, and he rolled over and wrapped himself up. The quilt fell into a dream.
