Alphard was miserable and had been ever since he had learned what his future held. While living with Sirius was enjoyable in and of itself, and he did so love being near and getting to know his eldest nephew, the reasons behind it were far from desirable. Alphard had worried that he would be disowned one day for as long as he could remember. It was a fear that had haunted him his entire life. As a boy he tried his best not to step too far over the line, running behind Walburga any time he did. As an adolescent he realized he truly did have cause for concern when he came to terms with who he was. As an adult he had grown certain his family would never discover him and therefore his position as a Black was secure. To come here and have that all ripped away was shocking and hurtful. What made it even worse was that it was not their mother or father who had cast him out. It was Walburga herself, who he loved and trusted above all others. He just couldn't make any sense of it. The version of his sister who was here insisted she couldn't fathom doing such a horrible thing to him, but it was clear that one day she would. Because one day it would happen and he would lose most everyone that he loved, save his nephew.
What he had told his sister was true though. He could never hate her, no matter what she did or said. Walburga had always and would always be his older sister, whom he loved and idolized. She was his best friend which was why it hurt so much. Even now, with the wound still fresh, he missed her. He longed to talk to her, but she was the one person he could not go to this with. He needed time and space, to figure things out, to sort out his head. He just hated that that was even necessary. Still, it was and therefore he needed to collect a couple of things to tide himself over. With Walburga out of their cottage, Alphard chose that time to go and collect some clothing for himself. He had left in a rush the last time they spoke and therefore had not a single stitch of clothing save the ones of his back. Walburga's cottage was but a short distance away from Sirius' and Alphard still had access to it. After all, technically it was half his even if he was not staying there at the moment.
Slipping into the cottage, he shut the behind him and took a moment to lean against it, looking around and trying not to remember the awful conversation they had last had in this room.
