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."

Regulus didn't exactly care about what it would taste like, after all he was still partial to cocoa, but he did as suggested and happily and very excitedly took his very first drink of coffee ever.... and spluttered. He nearly spit it out for the wild sweetness that touched his tongue like a shocking volt of... of sugar. He coughed and shook his head wildly, then burst into a fitful laughter at the ridiculousness of the situation. "It's so sweet!" he said and holding the cup in both hands, brought it to his lips again for a deeper drink of the liquid.

It was fantastic, sweet and different and really, really bad and he didn't like it at all but it was very powerful. He giggled stupidly and wiped his mouth with the back of his hand. "It's so grotty," he said with a grin. "Let me taste yours," he said and edged around the counter so that he was standing right beside Paul.

Regulus laughed too, though quieter - really letting go, that was another thing he'd forgotten how to do. He remembered having a similar reaction to his first drink of coffee. They'd teased him at work for months. At least his younger self was in good company, that didn't mock.

"Well, yes," Reg said, "you poured half the chocolate in it!" He held his cup out willingly, always ready to help bring a new convert to the cult of the coffee bean. Regulus Arcturus Black, member since 1981.

"I like chocolate," he said as if Paul didn't already know this. Regulus abandoned his cup momentarily for Paul's and eagerly took a drink of it, a very small one actually since he didn't like his own, but... "This one tastes better," he said matter-of-factly, "but mine is sweeter, I like it more." With a face, Regulus gave Paul his coffee and went back to his own.He even managed to settle down on a nearby chair to lean over a table over a table.. it wouldn't last long though, his energy got the best of him and his hands were already starting to shake for the sugar rush in his veins, his heart was thudding steadily but noticeably picking up the pace.

"I don't feel good, Paul."
