Sirius wanted to hug his former schoolmate. It was wonderful to have no more pain. He hadn't seen a day in five years when his teeth didn't hurt. nobody cared about that in Azkaban.
And best of all, it wasn't just the pain that was gone. His teeth were also healed.
Seems like Snape really understands his potions.
He curled up comfortably next to his godchild. or should he now say next to his confidante?
He really enjoyed this game.
In addition, as a dog you learned a lot. Sirius has never been so grateful for choosing this animal.
although the day had been tough. These tourists. He never expected Harry to be so famous. Well, actually understandable, he was the only one who survived the killing curse. as he now knew, Lily's sacrifice was responsible. This woman really loved her son more than anything.
But it was also cute how the little one was hiding behind the bat. he never thought that James's son would be so shy and shy. He was really very different from his father. Snape was right about that. There couldn't be enough attention for James. But mostly others had to suffer for it.
and again he could only thank his dog shape. Otherwise he would not have known what the political situation was about this country. Too bad that Harry apparently had to serve as a figurehead. but Snape wasn't stupid, he had used a spell that made it impossible for people to do anything with Harry's signature. You would really only be able to use the autographs for yourself and for showing off.
well, not that tomorrow a document showed up in which Harry committed himself to something. And that's only because someone stole his signature.
Seemed like the poisoner knew very well what he was doing.
well, the visit to the healer wasn't that tingling but he never liked healers, no matter what shape he was.
But then these outrageous marriage proposals. Damn it, the little one was thirteen, he shouldn't think about getting married for a long time. But nobody seemed to care.
He thought it was funny that Snape had asked him twice to chase someone away. He even listened to such orders.
sirius had to suppress a laugh. If only the guy knew who he was looking at all the time. Snape would turn it into a bedside rug.
The man could stroke so well.
He heard deep breathing beside him. Harry turned on his side and snuggled into his fur.
The boy needed at least as many pats as he did.
What Sirius had learned today about the kid's past still made his fur stand on end. and then all these wounds. Not only were there bruises and fresh welts, there were also scars. Probably from a belt. And just as Sev ... Snape had grimaced, he had found it hard to hold back, too.
what had those despicable muggles done to the boy?
He was really grateful to his former school enemy for the help. Maybe he shouldn't consider him an enemy anymore. apparently he had done more for Harry than anyone else in the magical world. And that was outrageous.
This boy had saved them all and they turned him away to people who couldn't stand him. Sirius had to be careful not to growl.
He still found it remarkable how Sever ... um, Snape had managed to get the boy to talk.
That had obviously been difficult for the man. and when Sirius saw the scars he couldn't help it. He wanted to show the man how close it was to him. But as a dog you didn't have that many options.
he still couldn't believe he had really licked the guy's arm. But he had to admit one thing. The bat had a delicious taste. He would like to repeat that again.
'No, from Sirius, bad dog. you are lying in the bed of your godchild. Thoughts like that are forbidden! "
Great, now he had to play his own chaperon.
But there was something else that gave him no peace.
The matter of guardianship.
what idiot had decided to give the old man guardianship over Harry? What had the minister swallowed to think that was a good idea?
yes, he knew Crouch had had a tough time himself. His own son was a devoted supporter of the unnameable. Worst of all, he had killed his own mother.
after the fact, Crouch was very harshly judged against Death Eaters, and his son in particular. Almost everyone was sent to Azkaban. The man almost went nuts. But that was by no means an excuse for wrong judgments. after all, the man wasn't alone. He still had a whole council full of wizards to help him. But they said yes and amen to everything.
And what was the result?
He was jailed innocent and without a trial. even Severus Snape had been denied a fair hearing. Until Dumbledore showed up. And then they put Harry into the care of that old soup chicken.
Sirius was very honest. he would rather have given his little ones into the hands of Lucius Malfoy.
The man had long since ceased to be an ardent supporter of Voldy. But on the contrary. Sirius got most of the information back then from the blonde.
something else that had never come to light. Precisely because he was not allowed to negotiate.
Well, Sirius knew the Malfoys had escaped punishment, but that must have cost the man quite a bit.
so many had been punished for being spies or informants. And others got away with it.
But what annoyed Sirius the most was that Dumbledore apparently still had that much power, if not more. and everyone seemed to look up at the man. Well he doesn't. Sirius had already vowed to hold the boy accountable when he fled Azkaban. He wanted answers. Why hadn't he saved the Potters and Longbottoms? why had he only helped a few?
And the most important. Why had he given little Harry to a family that he knew would hate the boy?
Lily had often been terribly upset about her sister and her husband at the religious meetings. How much they loathed the magical world. That you, Harry, thought a freak.
What was Dumbledore thinking?
Sirius would have loved to have taken his true form again and stormed off. But Severus ... damn it, why did he call him by his first name? Snape would have stopped him. Probably even killed. He could be trusted, the man had always seen Lily as a sister. Her death must have taken him seriously.
He found it all the more commendable that the man took such care of Harry. well, they had some initial difficulties, but they slowly got together. Somehow the little taunts were funny. Sirius still wondered what Bonanza was? Probably a muggle thing. At some point he would ask them both.
yes, he would walk around as himself again someday. But first he had to prove his innocence. Before that, Snape probably wouldn't listen to him either. and he wanted to, Sirius wanted to apologize for his behavior at school. Even though Snape probably didn't care. It was important to himself. He wanted to prove to himself that he wasn't the idiot he was back then.
but all in good time.
Sirius looked at the sleeping boy, he looked really cute.
Then it occurred to him. He really had to get Harry and Snape to go to Gringotts again. Who knows what Dumbledore did with the boy's money. because he knew about the given notes. So he and James got a good report card back then. Until they finally started exerting themselves in the seventh year.
But now he should rest. let's see what the poisoner had planned for tomorrow?
