Regulus went to Hogsmeade. Dressed entirely in black and neutral robes. It was not his normal thing.
Not anywhere near the house, but to find someone in particular. He needed to tie up stuff still and this was one way. Hopefully before he was done she would be gone from the property and he could finish his work, otherwise she might find herself in some hot water. He didn't really care at this point. It wasn't dark yet, though it was heading that way slowly. The mark would do better at night anyway and alert the aurors. Right now he had other trouble to stir.
Stir would be half correct. He had things to unset as well. As he passed around the village he undid some 'traps' he had placed to drive her brother to distraction, keep him from figuring out where she had gone. About halfway through this process he saw the brother Remus coming down the street in no rush. Changing his tactics at the moment, he slipped his wand in his pocket and walked over to him, hands out clearly not meaning danger.
"Remus Lupin," he said as he got closer, "I thought I might find you around here." Not that the Blacks ever had reason to talk to him naturally with the way things had been going. "I have news for you if you will listen though I doubt you will trust me."
Sirius after all had probably poisoned all of his friends against his brother.
"And I should say this is not a trap, really. I just want to talk to you. No tricks or trickery. Do tell me how Sirius is doing though. Has he settled anywhere yet or does he still remain a wanderer?" A face at that, thinking his brother personally would never feel safe to settle anywhere despite the family not chasing him at all.

[googlefont="Playfair Display"][googlefont="Alice"] Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful? Remus had been working for Rosemerta today, doing a few deliveries here and there, as he liked to help out when he had the time and didn’t have a mission to attend to. Having finished up helping her out, Remus strolled down the street with a bit of a smile. He was going to meet ‘Lily’ soon. However, he was still worried a bit from what Lily Evans had told him before. Warned him that she didn’t exist. He thought it was probably just a cover because she was in trouble, or at least some sort of trouble. And that was when Regulus strolled up to him, hands up showing he meant no harm. Regardless of the position Regulus had approached him in, Remus drew his wand, pointing it at the young boy, not trusting a Death Eater – or at least a sympathizer (seeing as they weren’t sure he was a Death Eater, not yet at least). Not only that, but Regulus’s assumption was correct, he wasn’t about to stand here without protection against Sirius Black’s brother, given everything he had heard about his friend’s family in general. “Why do you care? From everything I’ve heard, none of you really care about him.” He dropped his wand to his side, but he kept it at the ready, just in case. His reflexes were sharp, and he was confident he could beat him if it came to a standoff like the cowboys in the Old West of America. “What’s your game, Regulus? What do you want?”

Having expected such a reaction, he flinched a little at the wand pointed his way but kept his hands out. There was no love lost between them, but he and Remus had never spoken either before this. "Yeah right you always take one person's word automatically without asking around more? My parents are not me, Remus. And it was just out of curiosity, by the way, I'm not trying to find or contact him, just wanted to know." There was no way he would ever tell or hint at Sirius that he had any concern.
No that bridge had been burned and crushed by Sirius himself really. His parents had been eager to cast him aside however.
Regulus slowly crossed his arms and leaned back against a random building wall. "No games, like I said no trickery. I just wanted to pass you information I think you should know. And no before you ask, no one sent me and no one knows I am here." One hand did come up to rub his own temple a moment before he flashed Lupin a stressed look. "Sorry it's been a stressful day. Lots of spellcasting to do." A sigh that what had happened had happened, but oh well.
"Your sister, Rose, has fallen for Serverus Snape. As in either infatuation or love I'm not really sure and don't care." A twitch. "Up till today I was trying to help her with containment spells and trying to find something she could use to contain herself around moontime, but I'm sure your imagination will think that was something else on my end. I don't care how you twist what you believe." No, not any more. The Maurauders had him listed as an enemy he was sure, but despite his hatred at being betrayed in such a way, he still had feelings for her. Least till he obliviated the rest of the memories.
Regulus shrugged, moving his shoulders around to feel more comfortable against the stone sided-frame. "If you want proof, ask me a question I wouldn't know about her, she has been telling me alot recently. I'll answer best I can." He searched the other's eyes wondering if the signs of his being gay would be obvious and then realizing he really did not give a damn. "I know she swore she loved him when they were sleeping together at least. I don't think I would trust that, but I think he's on the edge of doing so. I know you were trying to keep tabs on her, thought you should know."

[googlefont="Playfair Display"][googlefont="Alice"] Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful? Remus sighed. It was true, he didn’t know much about Regulus himself. When he heard about him, it was always packaged with his parents. However, there was something Regulus didn’t have going for him. “I trust Sirius with my life, so yeah, I will take his word. Regardless if it is factually correct, it is his perception of the situation, and his feelings are valid. Somehow you made him feel that way even if everything he’s said isn’t completely true. The fact is, you were part of the problem or he wouldn’t have said you were. If you want me to think differently, you have to convince your brother differently.” His voice was even and he looked down Regulus taking in everything that he was. Watching everything, waiting for the slightest movement that could mean he was going to attack him. However, when he saw the look on his face, he could feel a bit of sympathy rising up inside of him. He was still at school, still a kid. Even he was still a kid in a way. Barely out of school thrust into this war. He could empathize with him. “Don’t apologize. We all have days like that.” His posture remained defensive, not letting his guard down, but he moved a bit closer to him, carefully, just so they weren’t quite far apart so no one would overhear them. His left fist clenched, his wand in his right. Severus Snape? What the hell was she on? Was she really thinking – had he driven her that far from him? She had to be doing this to get attention, a desperate cry for help, for him to come and sweep her off her feet and bring her back. How could she like a greasy haired git like that? He was one of the few people Remus was completely sure was a Death Eater, not far behind Bellatrix Lestrange and her ‘crew’. Why would Regulus be here? Wasn’t he friends with Severus? Wasn’t he one of their own? Why was he selling out one of his own to a known Order member – saying that his sister was sleeping with – or at least infatuated with him? That was just asking for him to storm over there and kill the little rat bastard. “Why are you telling me this? Why would you help me?” That was what didn’t make any sense to him.

There were so many ways this could go. If Remus asked him a question about her body, he was trying to find out if they had slept together. If he asked a question about her situation, he didn't really want to think about Regulus and her. Hell, if Remus asked him if he had done anything to her then he was afraid for her! That thought set him back a moment as he watched Remus struggle to resist something. Had he done anything to her? Maybe. If she remembered that lotion she now had she might remember what she had destroyed, what had been possible.
Merlin. He had come that close to having kids with a werewolf.
Turning his head he spit, like clearing something nasty out of his mouth, but remembering her scent at the same time. Oh yes, she had changed him for sure. Only time would tell how deeply, but not from his memories which he was determined to eliminate completely. That b!tch had lost her chance to worm her way into his future, she could have his comrade, the betrayer. Regulus sniffed. "I'm not interested in changing your mind, just pointing out more then one side. I was the younger one in the situation. At that age" and Sirius had left when he was very young "I think his impression of me was quite a bit slanted."
A nod to the expression since it was true. Casting too much could give on a headache, not that Remus probably knew the types of spells that really hurt. "Yeah. And I thought being an adult would be less stress, right?" He shook his head and straightened slightly to give his news. Seeing Remus' tension he knew he had guessed right the man was stressed about this! Turning the Marauders on Snape was child's play though as they had always butted heads. Surprisingly, Remus asked him no questions about her.
Was she that much a problem child this fit her too well, even from his enemy? Regulus frown increased just a tad as he looked at the ground a moment. "Help you? I wouldn't imagine having a sister who seduced guys and slept with multiple ones at the same time would be 'help' for you. Still, I know she was doing her best to leave you no trail and I am not a fan of hers at the moment. Your knowing about this means you will interfere more even if I don't know where she has moved to, just that it is near." He shrugged, tossing it off really.
A look at Remus' eyes as he said coldly "And Fuck Serverus." But then it occurred to him and he stopped frowning before he spoke. "Just so you know, I only did the peppermint because she wanted you to stop following her. Nothing personal. At that point she was doing the whole 'girl-in'distress' stuff." A tilt of his head to say 'you-know-how-girls-can-be' and he left that alone.

[googlefont="Playfair Display"][googlefont="Alice"] Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful? He looked like he was considering it for a moment before he shrugged. “Like I said, convince Sirius and you’ll convince me.” Pausing, a hand went to his chin before he shook his head. “He misses you.” He decided to leave it at that. He’d heard many things from Sirius, but at least in his interpretation of it, Sirius did miss his brother. Perhaps he misunderstood, perhaps not. He liked to think he understood Sirius fairly well. He was a bit afraid Sirius would be angry at him if he found out he told Regulus that, but he already knew it would at least help… tie this off. Remus was pretty sure Sirius wouldn’t ever settle down and stop running if he didn’t finish his business with Regulus here. Remus just gave him a small smile when he said that being an adult would be less stress. At least Remus knew growing up would just make things worse and worse, harder and harder on him. It was unfortunate that Regulus was finding it out the hard way, as it was still even difficult for him even knowing it was going to get harder. He was just a kid, they both were, and he felt bad for him. It wasn’t fair they were the ones who had to fight this war. But he was going to do it, and he would likely see Regulus in battle on the other side at some point. “Are you serious?” For a moment, Remus paused, just completely… floored by what he was saying. Could he believe him? The fact he mentioned she was SLEEPING with MULTIPLE guys, well that just spelled it out for him, especially with the fact that he was also throwing his supposed friend under the bus as well. And then he realized the real reason he paused instead of just saying those thoughts. He looked to Regulus and facepalmed, before letting out a chuckle. “Sorry, I’m just so used to my friends chiming in when I say something like that.” He cleared his throat and then finally he leveled with him, saying the following with complete seriousness. “I’d rather not fuck Severus. His hair is a bit too greasy for my taste, and boy that temper he has can be a bit of a turn off.” He stared at Regulus, hoping that it would at least lighten the mood a bit. He broke into a small smile before shaking it off once more. “So you were the one who fucked with my nose?”There were so many thoughts running through his head. What if the reason he found her familiar… and Lily – the real Lily – it would explain a lot of things, other than… No, she wouldn’t do that to him. He was her brother. All those close moments they had for those two short days… He needed to stop thinking like that. She wouldn’t… She would never do that. Why would she kiss her own brother? Why would she… oh god, she did try to stop him. Remus stumbled back a bit and placed a hand on his head. “No, no, no… You have to be lying – she – oh gods… please don’t tell me… please tell me you’re lying.” A hand went to his lips, his fingers tracing over them.

Remus let it slip in his answer and Regulus head snapped to him, his eyes wide, confused, and suddenly pissed off that Remus had dared! You could see it in his face which was no longer carefully controlled for a brief moment before it snapped closed again! Yes, that one had hit and he was not happy about it either. Regulus' mouth opened, shut to a gritted line, then opened again. "Fooled me." And his head turned away, clearly bothered. Sirius had never once made a connection in school where he had plenty of time. Far too little far too late.
When Remus made the comment, Regulus scowled at him instead of answering. "Quite." And when Remus responded he winced. "We've made it a national event avoiding that word." He held up a hand with a grimace. "Please. I just ate a little ago." Actually he had not and he could now feel it even more. Damn it. As Remus made the comment about his nose Regulus gave a slight head bow. "Would of used aniseed, but that was a bit easier to get ahold of."
Now he watched Remus' face closely and saw the reaction when realization set in.
As soon as the other looked at him he nodded once, very slowly. "Don't be the next. She is imploding against all reason. And I will no longer protect her. She has--" Should he? Well, this was going better then he had thought. Stepping forward he hissed out near Remus' face while looking both ways to be sure no one was near. "Remus. Your sister told me she wanted my children. She was quite intensely interested in them. She is out of control and you will have to deal with that before you meet her next."
And then he drew back, almost as if fearing he had said too much. "Stop her. Remove her from this place. Whatever you have to do, but get her seen to. She has no protection here any more. And that is all I have for you." Turning his back on the teenage werewolf Regulus moved swiftly away from here across the village turning several corners quickly to stay out of range. When he reached the house, he stopped in the darkest corner and lifted his wand, the deatheaters skull swooping up and into the sky! Knowing if Remus responded he would smell his sister's scent and find both Regulus and her scent above mixed with long sunk in sex smells, he appirated to his Lord to report his actions expecting a punishment.

[googlefont="Playfair Display"][googlefont="Alice"] Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful? Remus blinked, staring as Regulus hissed into his ear. He swallowed dropping his hand and his stare turned into almost a glare. Was he threatening her? No matter what she was doing, he couldn’t just let him hurt her like that. No matter her crime, she deserved help, not to be hurt. When Regulus ran off, Remus attempted to follow, but he lost him. Sniffing he attempted to track him via scent, but he was too far for that. His scent mingled with old scents and he had a hard time making it out. However, the sky suddenly lit just a bit, the green hue entering his eyes and Remus looked up to see the mark flying in the sky. Fuck. He was too late. If he had just not let his guard down, he would’ve been able to stop him. He had been lost in his own self-doubt. Without paying any heed to the danger it would be to run right towards a mark like that in the sky, he ran, his feet carrying him faster before he could even think to start heading that way. He dodged through those who were leaving the buildings to look at the mark, pointing at it. As Remus arrived, he heard the popping of aurors arriving. He threw his wand to the nearest auror so they could make sure he wasn’t the one who did it, and burst into the house, he found the two dead, and hurried upstairs. The scents wafted into his nose and he looked like he was going to vomit. Searching, he looked for Rose, but alas, she wasn’t there. But a door, glued. What was going on here? He could hear the aurors entering after him. They knew who he was, and that he was part of the fight against the death eaters, and so his wand was quickly returned to him. “Do you know who did this, Lupin?”“Regulus Black, I’m sure of it.”“Black? Do you have proof?”“Only my word. He threatened the person who was living here just minutes prior. I attempted to give chase but lost him.”“You know we can’t do anything with heresay.”“Just keep an eye on him.”“We were already doing that. He’s… provided to be tricky.” “Then try harder. This was where my sister was living. He’s going after her.”“If you tell us where she is –““I don’t know where she went! She probably ran knowing this would happen.” Remus punched the nearest wall and shook his head in frustration. “We can’t –“ “Yes I know you’re useless. Just do your damn investigation.” Remus quickly stormed out of the building leaving the auror standing there, staring as he left. Remus apparated away instant to report to Dumbledore and his friends the current crisis regarding his sister. Sometimes he wished he didn’t have a sister. And this was one of those moments.
