What: Potter Cat playtimes
When: Thursday night.
Where: Sirius' room.
Warnings: Potter Cat.

It wasn't that Sirius wanted to scare the cat off entirely. It was kind of nice to have some kind of connection to the life that he didn't really remember -- especially one that remembered him and was so blatantly unaware that anything was wrong. The thing clearly loved him. It had climbed up onto the bed with him once it had found him and hadn't left him alone since. It started purring if Sirius even so much looked at it. He was even starting to have rather one-sided conversations with it. Sanity, indeed.

But he really didn't care for the thing sitting on his head when he was trying to sleep. He woke up with a load of cat fur up his nose. And it was really uncomfortable. He didn't mind having a friend. He could lose the shadow.

So when Sirilla had suggested that Potter Cat might be introduced to Padfoot -- well, Sirius couldn't really argue with that idea. Potter Cat had probably met Padfoot before, but unfortunately for Sirius, he was a bit lacking in the Padfoot department at the moment.

"I don't think you have any choice in the matter," Sirilla said, smirking a bit. "I bet he loves your Padfoot."

She held out her hand to the cat to sniff (which she wasn't even sure people were supposed to do with cats, but it worked for dogs) but only got a hiss for her efforts. "I'm not going to be happy if this means we can't have king and queen sleepovers anymore."

"We'll have to let him down gently when we let him know that there is no more Padfoot," Sirius said, covering Potter Cat's ears as he told Sirilla. He grinned a bit as he said it -- it was easier to talk about now, he found. The idea of it was still upsetting, but it was something he had come to terms with. He half-wanted to ask CiCi or Fleur if they knew if he was ever able to turn into Padfoot again, but he didn't know he'd handle it if the answer was no.

"I think he'll be fine as long as you don't threaten his ability to sleep on my face," Sirius commented.

Now she was sure that something had improved, because when he'd told Sirilla that he couldn't transform into Padfoot before, he'd been sad and tense about it. Now he was grinning. "I don't want to sleep on your face," she said, shrugging. "I just want your cuddly body."

Grinning, she added, "Speaking of your face, I might need a new nickname for you if you're not going to be looking all seriousface, Siriusface."

"I have been told that it is rather good for the purpose of cuddling," Sirius remarked, still smiling faintly. He was also still petting Potter Cat, although he wasn't thinking about it any longer. The beast was purring loudly in his lap once more.

"Oh?" Sirius asked, and he sounded genuinely surprised at the prospect. He supposed it had to be true -- things weren't as bad as they had been since he had arrived. But it still seemed like everything was a tangled web of complications more often than he was happy.

"We're the cuddliest of them all," Sirilla said. She nodded at the cat. "Just ask your friend Sir Pussycat there. He can't resist your cuddle magnetism."

Tilting her head, she considered him, slightly amused by his surprise. "Well, yeah. You're more smiley than I've seen you yet. I mean, compared to the way you were when you showed up here, you're like one of those happy clowns with the huge painted on grins stuffed with cotton candy and rainbows." Which was especially impressive considering one of the Lestranges was here from his world. "You're not high, are you? Cause if you are, I want some of what you've been smoking."
