I saw your reblog about the funniest possibility for the prank, which mentioned Remus feeling sorta pity for Sirius losing all those points for Gryffindor, and I raise you “Sirius didn’t even lose any house points, whichever teacher was in charge at the time just asked James to explain the whole morality thing to Sirius and that it’s rude to nearly turn one of your friends into a murderer, and he got detention too.” The professor just figured this was a “Noble House of Black” thing and they’ve seen Bellatrix, they know that those children were not raised with any sort of morality

(Bellatrix, upon hearing he almost got a student killed and only got detention from it: Sweet, maybe he is actually my cousin. I was kind of worried he wasn’t related to me at all, wonder if he’ll give me tips)

i’m ngl, slightly unhinged, morally grey Blacks is one of my favorite tropes ever. i think i’ve talked about this way before but the thought of sirius being cut from the same cloth, no matter how much he tries to be different, is so fkn appealing to me for some reason? and like, i’m also a sucker for bella-sirius friendship and the push & pull they’ll have once he gets to hogwarts bc they’re so close and have a lot of history but also,,,highly contrasting, extreme positions in school/life/war etc makes things difficult. idk. i just have a soft spot for bella for some reason lol

imagine her coming up to sirius post-Prank with like,,,a wrapped something that she silently pushes into his hands before walking away. sirius is torn between ‘will this gut me if i open it?’ and ‘i don’t even care’. when he does open it, it’s something sentimental like idk a set of daggers or an intricate wand holster or some funky, horrific Dark object (think hand of glory vibes) bc bella just has a morbid sense of humor (and no matter how much sirius would deny the likeness, he does too) and this is just a message from her to him going ‘if you wanna do something right, u gotta do it yourself’. idk if any of that made sense but i promise it did in my head lol
