Note: The original thought is with the first one of these things. Sirius and Remus are visiting Harry at the manor. 298 words.

"Sirius!"

"Harry! Gods, it's been forever!"

"Yeah, I know!"

"Nice digs you got here."

"Perks of shagging a Malfoy."

"I'll say."

"Remus!"

"Hello, Harry."

"Oh man, I didn't know you'd be coming! Hang on a tic… Tessy!"

"Yes, Master Harry?"

"Mr. Remus will be joining us for tea and dinner. Oh, and Tessy? Don't tell Master Draco. I want to surprise him."

"Yes, Master Harry."

"Master Harry? Eh, I think I'd shag a snobby blond for that. Ow, I was joking, Moony."

"Damn right you were. Now, Harry, I want a nice tour of this place."

"Pft, of course."

In the arbor

"Saved the best for last."

"Oh, Harry…this is amazing."

"Thank you. Draco is overly pleased with it."

"Malfoy likes flowers. Definitely a pouf."

"Sirius, of course he's a pouf. I blow his brains out every night and not with a gun."

"Ow, brain seizure."

(laughing) "Serves you right."

"I have to agree with him, Padfoot."

"Anyway, this was his mother's garden. She took care of it herself."

"It's incredible, Harry, it really is. I bet Neville wouldn't have anything on it."

"Ha, I don't think it's worth that sort of praise."

"Yeah, Moony, don'tcha know our Nev is worth quite a lot designing people's gardens. Demands a deal of money before he even comes to your house."

"Well, I think I'll call Harry to come do ours."

"Fine by me. Saves me a bundle of galleons, yeah?"

"You're hilarious, Sirius. You just went to, where was it, Australia? Only because you've never seen red rocks."

"What can I say? I don't make much sense to myself most of the time."

"Well, Draco should be back by now and he's been looking forward to seeing you, Remus. Ready to go in?"

"Absolutely."

"Sure."
