From hotmchoechlin: Sirius first visit at the Potters.


Sirius was tired of the clothes his mother put him in. He had a khaki shorts, "dressy shoes" (as he called them, because they weren't trainers), a white shirt and a bow tie; he hated bow ties. He was dress in perfect sink with his brother, the only difference were the colours of the ties; his blue and Reg's green; and that made him hate the ensemble even more. But he had to be patient and behave, or he would be on the end of the belt once again.

That's why he was looking eye wide at the open space of the back yard of the Potter's house, with and itch to move; and crawl; and create havoc all around it; but he maintained his stand knowing that it was best to stay put than to suffer later.

"Walburga, you came," Sirius heard a warm woman's voice called after his mother.

"Yes aunt Dorea, thanks for having us," said his mother, politely, but he could still hear the disapproving tone in her voice.

"Is not problem at all, I suppose this are Sirius and Regulus," Sirius turned to the woman named Dorea when he heard his name. She was as tall as his mother, and he was expecting to be as cold as Walburga, but this woman was a lot warmer. At his six years he couldn't figure out how his mother and this woman were related.

Dorea's eyes were hazel, and her hair light brown, he could see some part of Andromeda in her, but not much else that could relate any of those two. And when she bend down to greet him, he couldn't help but smile, while Reg hided behind him.

"Is nice to meet you," he said remembering all the things that his mother told him.

"Nice to meet you too, Sirius, you look rather handsome," Sirius almost rolled his eyes, until he saw his mother, "but I think is rather formal for a play date," she smiled.

"Play date?" he asked.

"Don't encourage him aunt Dorea, he's ok were he is,"

"Oh don't be silly Walburga, I think Sirius can handle himself quite well," Dorea smiled at him again, and he found himself nodding, before looking at his mother for approval.

Walburga looked at her sons and pondered, she didn't like Dorea's new life, she was too "loose" and didn't respect much of the things she stood for, but she was still her aunt and she should respect her wishes, so he nodded to the boys.

"James is down there, I think we have some brooms to spare, please enjoyed yourselves,"

Sirius didn't hear anything after brooms, some part of him knew that the end of the belt would come but didn't care.
