I was wandering around Diagon Alley, passing the Quiddich shop without a second look, thoughts racing. Maddie was still pissed off at me and wouldn't even speak to me. Yumi probably was as well, after everything I said. I had found out it was 'cos of my dear little brother that one of my mates tried to kill my kid and it's mother. And that the little piece of shit brother of mine was married and was having a kid. "God my family's fucked." I mutter running a hand through my hair.

I'm walking out of Quality Quidditch with a new tin of broom polish when I do a double-take, seeing Sirius stalk by looking upset. "What is it this time?" I ask, hearing him mutter about his family.
((You don't have to remember who I am, but I think I know you if that's cool.))

I look up,"Hey Alex." I smile weakly,"My fucking family, they're all fucking bonkers."

"Finally noticed that, 'ave you?" I ask, raising an eyebrow after making a face at his choice of name. "And... Alex? If you must tease me, call me Lexi-Andra... but not Alex."

"But it's funner when I call you Alex." I laugh,"Kidding Lexie." I smirk,"But yeah, I already knew my family was insane but never realized it was this bad."

"Mhm," I say sympathetically. "So what'd they do this time, Sara?"

"Ow ouch, haven't been called that for a while."

"Well, you also haven't called me Alex in a while, either," I say, raising my eyebrows. "And you didn't answer the question, Sara."

"What question Lexi?" I ask jamming my fists back into my jacket pockets.

I sigh. "What did your family do this time, to renew your conviction in their insanity?"

"Fucking brother tried to fucking kill my son is what." I growl,"Fucking bastard made one of my mates do it."

I wince and then stare at him. "Ah," I say after a moment. "Guess I've missed a lot." I pause. "He's... okay though? Your, um, kid?"

"Yeah, mine. Naming him Fabain, he's..he's okay. So's the mum."

"Oh," I say at the mention of Fabian. Never knew him at all, but still.... "That's good, that they're all right. Merlin's beard, though... how long has it been since we talked?"

"Oh," I nod, feeling a strange stab of jealousy. I laugh and then sigh. "I know that this probably sounds stupid... but lucky you. They won't let me join the Order 'til I'm seventeen at least."

"It's better that way Lexi, your too young to get involved with all this shit. Hell I'd rather not be in it at all but I have to. Got a family to protect."

"Yeah, I guess," I say after a moment. "Although I would like to point out that you are hardly a year older than me, and that I'm pretty sure your family came along more recently than joining the Order. And also that I've got a family, too... niece and sister... and I'd like to help protect them. But yeah, you're probably right. I suppose I wouldn't be of much use until I learn more."

"Been in the Order for a while now, end of last year actually. Family came along about six weeks ago." I smile weakly,"Learn all you can, you'll be great."

I shrug-nod and look at the ground for a minute. "So... you've got a kid now and your family's crazy. Anything else new I should know about?"

"Er..well kid's not born yet and we're not actaully married so we don't count as family? Other then that I'm being shipped out to war?"

I wince. "Well, that's kind of important..." I mutter. "How soon?"

Post by Sirius Black on Sept 22, 2007 2:02:27 GMT
"Any day now." I mutter, jamming my fists into my jacket pockets,"It's not fair, Lexi it's not. I don't get to be around to see my son's birth cos of this damn mission."

Post by Alexandra Foster on Sept 22, 2007 2:05:06 GMT
I make a disgruntled agreeing sound in my throat as I nod. "Yeah... but it's important, right? I mean, I know that you probably can't talk about it...."

Post by Sirius Black on Sept 22, 2007 2:06:37 GMT
"Doesn't seem that important to me," I mutter bitterly,"I'm basically trailing this one guy, we think he's a Death Eater."

Post by Alexandra Foster on Sept 22, 2007 2:12:19 GMT
"Oh..." I say. "Well... I guess they wouldn't ask you to do it if they didn't think it was important." I shrug, knowing that's a lame reassurance. "And... at least it doesn't sound too dangerous unless you get stupid."

"Yeah guess so." I shurg, then grin slightly,"But knowing me that's more likely to happen."

Post by Alexandra Foster on Sept 22, 2007 2:16:29 GMT
"Yeah...." I roll my eyes, deciding to try and make light of it. "What the hell was I thinking? Can you even get stupid at the stage you're at already?"

"Gee thanks, I feel loved Lexi." I laugh.

"Oh... do you? Well, that backfired then." I frown at the ground for a moment, then look up and nod. "Because actually, I hate you. So does everyone you know. We've all been plotting your death the last ten years... slowly gaining your trust so that the truth will be more devastating. And it's all because of your face... we simply hate your face."
