Re: Sirius and Regulus
"I know you didn't, and I'm not blaming you for anything, Sirius. I'm not even asking you for anything, but you asked me if I thought you could raise the next Black heir, and the answer is no," he said with a shrug. "I think you'll make a fun dad, but that's something completely different. Besides, we'd have to look into the legality of it. You might be married, but James would hardly be the mother, which would make them bastards, unless the law has change."
He sighed. "I hope you have everything you want, Sirius. I really do. I like having a brother again, even if it doesn't last, but our attempts at being a family doesn't relieve me of the obligations that our parents put on me when the disowned you. That's my duty, and I'm not blaming you nor am I trying to push it back on you."
