"Anything but a compliment from you hurts," Sirius continued, smoothly. If it weren't for the fact that he didn't actually know any romantic poems, he had the urge to recite some romantic poetry to her in the most dramatic and silly way possible. Maybe he would even include Remus in on the poetry, although he could imagine Remus feeling a little awkward about it.
Sirius noticed Remus rolling his eyes, but didn't respond to it. If Remus was in some sort of mood, let him be. He could always be misinterpreting the eye roll, but it usually expressed displeasure, did it not? He didn't know many young girls who would roll their eyes out of something good happening.
"No," Sirius said in reply to Lena. "I think even bats were too civilized for Snivellus, so they kicked him out of their flock. Or whatever bats have."
What were a group of bats called? Sirius knew that a flock of crows were called a murder, and a pack of lions was a pride, but what about bats? The thought perplexed him for a minute. He could always look into it further, but it amused himself to think that he would ever do self-study. Or, better yet, study for the sake of studying and not for class!
Sirius moved past Lena's question, as he didn't really have an answer for it. Really, he just said it out of being flirty.
"I'm already bankrupt, so it doesn't make much of a difference, does it?" Sirius asked, a hint of seriousness in his voice. With no family meant having no money, either. Luckily the Potters were so good to him and bought him everything he needed when he returned to school, including new robes, books, and the like. Sirius considered himself extremely lucky. Without his friends, what would he have done? Used some sort of emergency Hogwarts fund for the poor kids? But what about during holidays? He supposed he could stay up in the mountains surrounding Hogsmeade. He knew there were some good caves up there. "I'm sure if you tried hard enough you'd do a good job. Everything just ... comes to you." Sirius laughed. It was indeed a compliment, but it was the same for Sirius and James, too, was it not? Didn't all three of them seem to get the hang of anything? Of course they all had their downfalls, but none of them failed a class yet. Even Peter managed to fairly well for himself.
Although both of his friends smiled, Sirius didn't feel as if the joke had went over as well as he would have hoped. His own smile didn't remain long for that exact reason. He could even feel the tension rise around him, but knew it had little to do with his joke. Although Remus went his usual, sensible route, Sirius wasn't like that. He disregarded Lena's attempt to change the subject and, like usual for him, decided to be blunt.
"Yeah, OK, you're just as fine as Remus not caring about my comment earlier," Sirius said, rather sternly, referring to the comment Sirius had made about Remus ditching for Annelise. He didn't really pay attention to Remus, though. It wasn't about him. It was about Lena and the fact that she was being a typical girl and pretending that everything was OK when it clearly wasn't.
