Sirius always took Halloween hard. While in Azkaban, he'd spent it wallowing in misery and spending the day utterly despondent. Here, he'd spent it drinking himself into a stupor that he hoped would help him forget. (It hadn't). He knew that no matter how much time passed, he was never going to forgive himself for what had happened.
But he'd sobered up by now, at least. And he'd gone back to the house, no longer trying to avoid James and Lily. The fact that they didn't blame him for what had happened really only made him feel worse, and at his most depressed, he simply hadn't been able to deal with that.
He heard James in the kitchen and wandered in there, hoisting himself up onto the counter and letting his legs dangle.
"I'm back," he said. "Did you guys manage to survive without me?"
He was trying to be light-hearted, but the strain in his voice was clearly evident.
