I didn't know I had a twin!
Who: Regulus and Regulus "Paul" Black
What: They're going out for coffee, cause Paul is obviously nuts.
Where: Somewhere in London
When: Just as soon as Regulus finds the lobby
Warnings/Status: None/Started



Coughee. Regulus had never had that before, but Paul said it was a drink and something from the Gods and the boy really just wanted to take his word for it and not test it out because he couldn't see the appeal in such a beverage. Unfortunately for him the cot like bed he'd been given as a temporary sleep place was unbearable because the room he shared was also inhabited by five or so other people. People he didn't recognize and people that smelled funny. Really funny.

And they snored.

It was a bad place for him and sick really, sleeping didn't make any of it go away either because it was hot and stuffy and he as sure that he was beginning to smell like his fellow rifters, as he'd started calling them, and frankly it wasn't appealing. But now, now though he'd got his chance to escape it for a bit and that was through coughee with Paul. Regulus had to get directions to the lobby from three different people on his way out and most of them looked just as confused as he did but he made it some twenty minutes after telling Paul he was on his way.

Now where was he? Regulus scanned the room for a face and landed on one that looked particularly familiar. He bounced forward, bubbling with curiosity and quite eager to be out of St. Mungos even for a little while.

He got close enough to stare harder and stare he did.

"Whoa."

He wasn't at all offended about the flinching, it bounced off of him like nothing, mostly because it didn't occur to him what Paul would be flinching at, but oh well. What boy liked holding hands with other boys anyway? Especially one that was like an older brother... except not quite. Regulus peered at Paul and for the first time in a while allowed himself to think of Sirius, it made his chest ache and unconsciously he reached up to rub a hand over his heart before ducking under Paul's arm and into the coffee shop.

The smell was explosive and it filled his nostrils immediately and made the boy reach up to plug his nose hurriedly while he swiveled around to stare at his new companion in surprise. Once the smell cooled enough to not shoot his senses to pieces though, Regulus uncovered his nose and looked around curiously. "Whoa," he said and bounced forward automatically to put his hands all over everything like any normal ten year old would do.

That smell was the best in the world, and Regulus absently patted his young self on the arm. "You get used to it," he said with a blissed-out grin.

And oh, but you really did, and after awhile the smell was exactly like a high, or what Reg imagined a high was like, anyway. He couldn't even bring himself to rein the boy in when he got all hyper; as long as he didn't break anything...it wasn't as if he was Reg's responsibility, or anything.

Whatever, coffee.

He bounded up to the counter, his movements bearing far more resemblance to his younger self's than he would admit, and ordered a caramel macchiato for himself, then glanced over his shoulder. "Oi, Regulus. What do you want?"

It was so weird, to hear his own name on his lips.
