Sirius burst through the door to the top of the astronomy tower and promptly shut it and hit with as many locking charms that he could think of, having taken out his wand in the process of opening the door. He had been running around the forbidden forest as Padfoot and most of the creatures had not spared him a glance. All except for one, a cat that he had seen many times before out on the grounds and even in the castle. In the deep recesses of his mind he knew that it was Professor McGonagall, but today he decided to play a prank and had hidden behind a bush. He heard the meow and had leaped out barking, which apparently gave the "cat" quite the scare because it had taken off in a dead sprint. Sirius had given chase all the way to the castle and up to McGonagall's office. Which is where instead of a cat standing before the door, it was none other than his head of house. Shit! Was all he could think and took off as fast as possible with a spell narrowly missing him as he did so.
He hadn't stopped nor looked back. The whole situation gave him the suspicion that McGonagall, knew that he was an animagus. He would have to tell the others about what he thought. A light breeze blew his hair back and forth a little bit, as he sat down and put his back against the the stone wall that was by the door. He had no clue how long he would have to stay up here, but at least he was safe for now. Sirius began to think about his current situation, well rather his living arrangements after school. And he would have continued thinking about it, but he heard a noise that sounded like a person. Which meant that he wasn't the only one up here. Shooting to his feet, wand in hand ready to be used at a moments notice. He commanded/demanded in a wary and stern tone. "Whomever you are show yourself."

Severus wanted some peace and quiet – and while normally he found solace in the potions classroom, currently it was occupied by some kids getting extra potions homework. What better place than the astronomy tower? It was normally deserted, plus he got a great view of the grounds from here. He was standing on the edge of one of the windows, looking down and out. Hogwarts was his home, it was the place he could be free from his father – free from the muggles – free from so many things. And yet this home contained four extremely annoying boys. If only they didn't exist Hogwarts would be perfect. Yet somehow, he had found himself caring for the sister of one of them. Well, she wasn't like her brother.
He had been working on a spell – he was fairly good at creating spells after all, and the current one would be similar to diffindo – except it would work on the emotions of the user. IF they were panicked, it would be a frenzy of cuts – focused? It would be a deep gash, deeper than diffindo would do to a person. Of course, it was dark magic, given the way he had designed it – and it was for use on enemies – meaning those four boys or someone who tried to hurt him or tease him.
However, in the middle of his thoughts, he heard the door close quickly and Severus quickly moved behind one of the pillars in the tower. He peeked around, seeing Sirius Black, one of the aforementioned boys, at the door. It would be so easy to test out the spell. However, as he adjusted in order to pull out his wand, his robes swished, and he cursed under his breath – he'd heard him. The element of surprise was gone now.
He emerged from behind the pillar, wand drawn and pointing at Sirius. "What are you doing here, Black?"

Of course it just had to be Snape. The one person he could do without right about now, and the guy has the audacity to ask him what he was doing up on the astronomy tower. "Maybe I just wanted to enjoy the view from up here." Sirius replied nonchalantly. He didn't have to explain himself to one of the people that he disliked, or was it hate, no maybe loathe. Sirius didn't really know which it was and he didn't really care at the moment. "What are you doing up here anyways? Shouldn't you be down in the dungeons like you usually are Snivellus?" He asked while moving away from the door and to a better spot so as to give him more room if Snape should try anything.
Sirius wasn't going to let his guard down around someone like Snape, as the git reminded him of how a good portion of his family treated him, well except for using Sirius as target practice for any dark magic that they wanted to use on him for punishment. Some people called him a bully, mainly Lily, but he wasn't to concerned about that as it was only Snape that he truly bullied, mainly when James and the others were around. But after a close call with McGonagall, who could have found out about him being an unregistered animagus, so he wasn't in the mood to play nice at all, that is if it came down to it.

He scoffed. Typical Black arrogance. Thinking he owned the place. He was pretty sure from how quickly Black had come in and his reaction, Black had done something, or was running from someone. That was something very typical of him too. Pulling those 'pranks' on people and hoping not to get detention. Severus could feel his eyes rolling back in his head. Regardless, he still had his wand trained on the kid. After all, he couldn't trust Sirius wouldn't hex him. Boy, he would love if Sirius struck first – then he could claim it was in self-defense truly.
"Maybe I just wanted to enjoy the view from up here," He echoed with an annoyed look. "Of course, I would be down in the dungeons if there currently wasn't a tutoring session for first years going on. Oh, perhaps you should be down there. Your skills are on par with many of the students there after all. Might learn a thing or two, well, if your skull weren't so thick." His lips curled up and he began thinking the incantation he had come up with for his spell. Black wasn't one to have any sort of restraint – at least in Severus's opinion – and so it wouldn't take too much, he thought, to push Black. Then again, these were petty insults. And once more, it was Black, so why waste so much effort on upsetting him when it was pretty easy to get a rise out of him regardless?

Of course, they would trade an insult or two. It wouldn’t be an encounter with the git without them. It was fun to annoy Snape, but then he had to essentially call him stupid. Wrong thing to do. “Oh, you must be talking about the upper years, sure they might be able to learn a thing or two from me. Seeing as how the snake pit is full of idiots.” He retorted. It was true, and in Slytherin there were a few people that weren’t idiots. Like Snape, who was actually intelligent, even though Sirius would never admit that out loud.
By now Sirius had calmed down some what and lowered his wand. Sure, it might not be the smartest thing to do, given the present company he had. His wand was still in his hand, and he was more than ready to use it, should Snape try anything. “My skull may be thick, as you put it, but at least my hair isn’t covered in grease.” He shot back and then after a moment or two, Sirius gave Snape a look, and added. “You might want to give it a wash. Girls aren’t too fond of greasy hair.” It was true they weren’t. In fact, he was pretty positive that no one liked greasy hair. Good hygiene and all that.

Severus smirked. While Sirius had dropped his wand, Severus considered for a moment what he should do – it would not do him any good if someone came through that door and saw him pointing his wand at a 'defenseless' Sirius Black. With that in mind, he lowered his wand arm, though his grip on his wand was tight and his wrist was ready to flick at any sign of trouble. "Ah, your brain must be too small to register big words too. Let me repeat myself in terms you understand. 'Babies got booboos in doing good. You get lots of booboos too. Babies would help you recover your booboos.'"
An eyebrow quirked up – girls aren't too fond? While yes, his hair was… not the best in the world – it wasn't something he could really help very much. No matter how much he cleaned it, his hair always ended up looking like this. It'd always been that way really. However, the smirk didn't fade. He had an ace in the hole. "Well, I don't quite know about that, Black. Perhaps you should talk to your friend – you know, the one who always gets sick right around the same time of the month or has some sort of emergency – he might inform you that I do in fact I have a girlfriend! His sister to be precise. Rose Lupin. Beautiful girl. Very kind. And a great kisser." He makes an 'okay' sign with his hand and gives an over exaggerated wink.

“Just stop Snape. Your going to fry your brain if you go on trying to talk like to a baby.” Sirius retorted. He wasn’t the one in the family that thought that they were a baby. “If you want to talk like I baby, I say go talk to my cousin Bellatrix. Or wait don’t you do that already?" It was probably true, he had heard the murmurings and rumors from his deranged cousin last summer when he got kicked out of the house by his mother. Sirius wouldn’t put it past Bellatrix to be speaking the truth, about the names of people that he had overheard her talking about, with his mother.
Ok, Snape had him there. “Say what?” It was completely random and out of the blue for something like that to happen. And what the hell was going on here? “Did you feed her a potion Snape?” He asked with a tidbit of venom in his voice. Rose wasn’t his sister, but she was good as one, to him at least. But Sirius wasn’t going to do anything about, well maybe he would bug Rose about it, and he would most likely leave Snape alone. “Well I guess everyone deserves some piece of happiness in their lives. Just don’t hurt her or, there will be hell to pay.” He warned, even though it was rather odd to hear those words coming out of his mouth about people deserving some semblance of happiness. Even Snape deserved it. Since Sirius knew what it was like to live without happiness in one’s own life.
“Now I wonder what she would say if she found out that you told me, of all people, about your relationship. Hmm, what do you think Snape?” Sure, it was a jab and also a threat at the same time insinuating that Sirius would let it slip to Rose that Snape told him about them being together. He would only use it if the greasy git didn’t do it first.

He pursed his lips, his cheeks sucked in just slightly before they were released. Truth be told, he didn't quite enjoy being around Bellatrix. However, she was an avid supporter, and so in order to get into the circle he was hoping to get into, he needed to make nice with her, even if she had a few screws loose. "Yes well, it does seem to run in the family to need that sort of dumbed down explanation." Oh he didn't care if Sirius went crying to Bellatrix saying he insulted her – not that Black would, he was a disgrace to their family as it was – after all, the others exchanged insults all the time.
Severus blinked a couple times. He didn't quite expect that answer. He was sure that Sirius would get pissed or something. However, the fact that he essentially said it was alright and just not to hurt her (that wasn't the plan, while it was a sudden thing that had bloomed thanks to Damocles and his invention of the Wolfsbane Potion, he didn't want to lose the second person who had ever really been kind to him), really stunned him. For a moment, his guard was dropped, but then he quickly recovered himself.
"… In a way, yes, I did feed her a potion. Something that would help… with her particular condition. Something she shares with her brother. Turns out spending a good amount of time with someone, even while distracted with brewing a potion, makes people enjoy each other's presence." Severus was fairly sure that Black had to know about it – and for some reason he wanted to make it firm that this wasn't because he gave her a love potion… but he was helping her. Why did he want to prove it to Black? He didn't know, and it was frustrating.
He pursed his lips again. "It's not like you wouldn't find out eventually anyways. She, as you likely don't know, is a very… affectionate person. Almost too much at times."

"Well look at that something we actually agree on Snape." Sirius usually had to simplify things for people in his family. Well not really family anymore, ok only by blood, but when the only ones to still talk to you were your grandfather, and then those that had been kicked out of the family, well he couldn't call the rest family now could he. This conversation was just plan weird, here they were with no one else around and they could be found being somewhat civil towards one another. "That is a rather difficult potion to brew from what I hear." Sirius knew of the Wolfsbane potion, difficult to brew and it was expensive if he remembered correctly, which is why Remus didn't take it. The poor sod. But at least his friend had he and James for company now that they had become illegal animagi, just so their friend wouldn't be alone.
Rose showing to much affection? Well there was something you didn't see every day well at least he didn't. But then yet again she was like a sister to him so of course he wouldn't get that kind of affection. And if he did well that would be awkward. "Ah but this is so much better, and I didn't even have to do anything to find out about it. And well that would be a little awkward since we aren't together now wouldn't?" Sirius said, knowing full well that he didn't want any more details than that.

This was extremely awkward. How were they having a civil conversation? They were alone, he could easily attack him, possibly push him off the edge of the tower (not kill him of course), and yet here they were, having a normal conversation. Well as normal as it could be when one of them was attempting to hint how he knew about his friend's condition and gave 0 shits about revealing it if need be.
"And expensive. Luckily, Rose is a… resourceful young woman. And unfortunately for her brother, well, there's just enough for her and my own purposes. Not that I would help him out anyways," He gave Sirius a look before crossing his arms. "It would be a shame if someone found out about her brother, you know?" There we go, he was being too subtle before, now it was obvious what he was getting at here.
"Right." Severus looked to the side, and stared at the wall for a moment, tracing a crack with his eyes, "I certainly hope you'd never find out any other way." He looked back at Sirius. "If I find out you've touched her or touch her in any inappropriate way in the future, I'll kill you. I'm not kidding either or exaggerating. Even if the two of us break up, or get in a fight, I'll kill you if you try anything with her. Though I'm sure her brother probably would do the same."

“Clearly.” He said sarcastically, when Severus had mentioned that the potion was expensive. Just from what had been said earlier, Sirius knew that Snape had found out about both Lupins being werewolves. “Well at least one of them is getting it. And yes, she is resourceful. I think Remus would prefer that she have it, instead of him.” There was no way that he was going to spill about being an animagus and keeping Remus company during the full moon. “I am curious though. How did you find out about their, shall we say condition?” Sirius was curious to find out how Snape had found out. Maybe Rose had told him, or Snape, being one of the most competent Slytherins, had figured it out, what with Remus always being gone during the full moon, and sometimes a day before and a day after.
Well that was good, so Snape wanted to be the first to tell him. How thoughtful, but Sirius had a hunch that if any of the others were there he probably would have rubbed it in their faces. But then yet again if they were there as a group Snape probably would have stayed silent about it all. “Meh.” Sirius responded to the threat with a shrug of his shoulders. “Well let me put your worries to rest. Rose is like a sister to me and nothing more.” It was true that was how he felt about her. “And I swear right now that I will never touch her in an inappropriate manner.” Just the though of someone doing that to Rose got his blood boiling to an extent. Seriously was Snape still trying to get a rise out of him? What was wrong with that guy?

He raised an eyebrow. He had already come up with a lie of how he found out about it – after all, Rose would probably not be happy if he just went out and told them she essentially told him (though technically it was her saying she needed the potion that told him first). "It doesn’t take a magizoologist to tell what they are. The disappearances right around the same time. His scars. Knowing how soft Dumbledore is and how he would likely allow creatures like that at Hogwarts." He shrugged.
"I'm more surprised Dumbledore isn't providing the potion himself, because while it is brand new, it is expensive. And I doubt purchasing the ingredients will be sustained for too long given their… lack of funds in general." He bit his lower lip. Not even he could continue to buy the ingredients for just Rose – honestly with the two extra potions he was keeping, he thought he might take half of the ones he would give to the Dark Lord and save them (the second potion he kept was for experimental purposes, which who knew if those could be used).
Severus considered for a moment, looking at the Gryffindor suspiciously. He didn't trust him, but at least it seemed fairly reasonable that he was telling the truth. There was the first time for everything wasn't there? "Well… good then." It was said as if he was attempting to retort to something, despite the words not being combative. "We won't have an issue… at least regarding that."

Sirius didn’t believe Snape for a second. That answer seemed prepared to Sirius, having told many cover stories, and lies in his life. Just ask McGonagall, is what he’d say if anyone asked him. “They maybe creatures, but they are still human." He said in defense of his friends. Sure, they had a furry little problem, but that didn’t mean that they needed to be ostracized from society.
“Please. Dumbledore would only do that if he needed them for something, and he doesn’t. Plus, I’m sure our esteemed headmaster feels he has done enough on their behalf, by letting them attend school here.” Sirius said. He wasn’t to fond of the headmaster, what with the times he has had to meet both the headmaster and McGonagall at the same time. There was just something about him that screamed, ‘I can’t be trusted.’ It was weird but close to the feeling that he got when he was around Peter.
“Of course, we won’t.” He agreed, not that he cared too much what Snape thought.

Severus rolled his eyes. Of course, they were still human. At least Rose was. Remus? He was a monster in his own right, just like Sirius and James and Peter. Some might say he was being dramatic, but that was just how he viewed it. "Yeah, yeah, whatever. Monsters aren't because of something they can't control, blah blah. In general they are monsters, but there's a few exceptions that you have to keep your mind open for. Like mudbloods and muggles. Lily's an exception." Casually dropping that slur.
"Puh-lease," Severus countered with a scowl, "He wouldn't even let them be here if he didn't need them for something. Just look at you little friend. He's so far wrapped around Dumbledore's finger. I wouldn't be surprised if he wanted to use him to get others like him on his side. Inside agent. I think he wants them to be unmedicated. After all, isn't it better to be accepted by others if you aren't? Since a lot probably think its offensive to take the potion." He shook his head. "Plus given their senses, they'd probably be able to tell if someone has taken the potion. I know they can tell when someone has lived among people not like them."
Conspiracy theories at their finest. But knowing Dumbledore and how at the moment Snape did not trust Dumbledore at all, they could probably be true.

“Obviously, there are monsters in all of us Snape. You, me and all of the others.” Sirius agreed. Everyone had a monster and their own monsters to deal with, since everyone led a different life. “Oh, so Lily is the exception but all other muggleborns and muggles are monsters? I’ll be sure to let her know that you think that of her. Oh and I'll also makes sure to point out that you think her parents are monsters.” Sirius responded, he was going to tell her about this conversation anyways. Sure, they annoyed each other, but things like this and others that were important, were always helpful. Plus, Sirius wanted to punch Snape in the face for his ‘mudblood’ comment.
Sirius had thought about that, and Snape did have a point, this time. “That actually makes sense. Dumbledore better not use him for something like that. It isn’t right. But then life isn’t fair is it? It won’t matter, others will know that they have spent to much time around us “normal” people. So, you’re right again.” Ok this was just getting ridiculous. “Wow you’re on a role Snape, so don’t stop now.”
