WHO: Harry, his parents, and Sirius, whom he doesn't know is there yet, and, well...anyone else in the apartments, lol..
WHAT: Coming to talk about Peter
WHERE: Leaving apartment 10 and going to apartment 9
WHEN: Later in the afternoon that they find Sirius and bring him home
RATING: It's usually PG in the Potterverse (unless Ginny is there, rrowr..)
Harry looked around at the mishmash of belongings that he was attempting to put away and sighed. He'd been using his wand, although he'd never developed the habit of using it for household chores, and it certainly wasn't helping here. His mind was just a jumble. He hadn't even wanted to spend time away from his parents, terrified they would disappear as soon as he looked away. And yet he knew his mum needed time to deal with her anger over what was said about Peter.
Pettigrew. Anger had been so strong in him when Peter's name was mentioned, that his skin prickled with it. He'd watched Peter kill Cedric, and that was the least of his crimes. The man was responsible for his parents deaths, for every year of Harry's life that had gone on without them in it. Frustrated, Harry ran fingers through his hair until it stood on end. The Peter that had come here was young, too young yet to have committed those crimes. Could Harry condemn him for things he hadn't done yet?
Of course I can.
Rejecting that, Harry paced the mess. He'd tried to teach his children about forgiveness and compassion, all because of the lesson he'd learned from Snape. Snape, who was here, giving Harry himself a chance to make up for it. To apologize for all the things he'd said. And in the same breath, Harry wanted to kill Pettigrew for what he'd done.
For now, he had to tell his parents the truth, and face the consequences. Resolved, he left the apartment, stepping into the sunshine filtered through the courtyard before he walked the few steps to his parent's place. He probably should have given them more space, but he just couldn't face being too far from them. Voices came from the other apartments as people moved their things, and from inside the apartment as well. Harry smiled; he'd done it, provided a safe home for them all in this uncertain place. For everyone he loved. Briefly, he wondered if he'd be able to convince Snape to come as well, before he lifted his hand and knocked on the door.
