#Sirius figures out a few hours in but doesn't mention it bc he knows why he hid it

[aithusarosekiller]

Walburga and Orion leave Regulus the key to the extra lock when they go out and tell him that under no circumstances is Sirius allowed to sneak out and do stupid shit. Sirius knows this and is trying to figure out how to get around it bc he knows he wouldn't just hand it over. He spends about an hour thinking about it before he settles on a plan and matches over with purpose, pulling him into a massive bear hug for the first time in YEARS

R: what the fuck is this?

S: hug

R: why?

S: becauseeeee you're my best friend and I love you!

R: that is actually so much bullshit, I'm not even on a 10 slot list of your closest friends, what are you planning?

S: nothing!

*2 minutes of the most awkward hug ever*

S: ok I have to go do something important now, bye! Love u!!!

R: what on earth was that all about? *checks pockets* ...shit

S: *already halfway down the road to meet James*
