15 December 1979 - Dorcas' birthday.
On the morning of her birthday, Sirius woke Dorcas with breakfast in bed (cooked by their new house-elf, Botty) at which point he gave her three of these blank ledgers for her record keeping, along with new quills and coloured inks.
And. At the beginning of his hunt for a birthday gift for his first girlfriend, Sirius found a pearl necklace he liked, but because the pearls were natural, rather than cultured, they were imperfect, and feeling Dorcas was so close to perfect Sirius initially passed on it. However he found himself returning to it time and again on his search, finally realising it was the individualness of each pearl that drew him, in the same way that Dorcas was different, distinct, incomparable to everyone else. Sirius felt the unique elegance of the necklace would compliment Dorcas' extraordinary beauty perfectly.
But now he is screwed for Christmas gifts.
