As soon as he came within sight of Hogwarts, the achingly familiar sight of the castle brought a smile to Sirius Black's face. He'd occasionally thought about visiting his alma mater in the past, but hadn't really found a good excuse to, nor even the time to come up this far north. Lately, however, some things had changed, and not all for the better.

Sirius desperately needed this mission to keep himself preoccupied. His mind had been far too full of the things that had happened in the last week, least of all being the sudden reappearance of Regulus. He still hadn't had a proper exchange of words with his brother — perhaps even former brother, if this kept up — though he wasn't quite sure if he wanted to come face to face with him in a less crowded environment. He wouldn't admit to anyone else that he was scared of how he might react. That the guilt of pulling away from Reg had been eating away at him since he thought his brother had died. This situation with Remus wasn't making things any easier on him, either, especially since he'd have to spend much of this assignment in his company.

Sirius steeled his jaw in consideration. He'd have to make a concerted effort to be near the other man as little as possible. With any luck, he'd turn Remus off of him completely and maybe they could even salvage what might be left of their friendship. If not... Sirius didn't let himself think too hard about the other, far less pleasant, potential consequence. Instead, he shook off his gloomy train of thought, adjusted his proper wizarding robes [which felt foreign since he'd begun wearing Muggle clothing exclusively], and continued on his way towards the castle, to the designated meeting spot before the large gate, in the hopes that he might see James before either of the others.

The rest of the evening went mostly according to plan for Sirius. He'd gotten James to himself and was able to bask in the glow of their lost youth. At least, to him, it felt like he'd been left somewhat behind after Hogwarts. He was in a raucous mood, taking the opportunity to faff about whenever the opportunity arose. A few times he came rather close to blowing the gaff on his issues with Remus, but he'd bitten his tongue and tossed about a few unsavoury jokes instead.

Eventually through their pass on the upper floors of the castle, along with the astute eye of James, he noted some dark magic traces that Dumbledore had spoken of. Sirius felt cold and hatred near the seventh floor, but he wasn't sure how much more they could find at this point, confiding in James his worries that Regulus might know more than he was letting on.
