maybe she misses the ministry. her work, her passion. she hasn’t had much time to think about it, not yet, but when she sees AMELIA BONES, something stirs within her. “ bones, “ she says, in acknowledgement. her words are surly, tainted by the anger that she carries under her skin like a loaded gun, these days. ready to go off. three, two, one. fire. but she restrains herself ( she hasn’t completely lost herself, not yet ), and settles on a dark stare instead. hatred is burning in her eyes, making her see red. her mask of indifference doesn’t slip. “you don’t look well, is the future not all that you would have hoped?” there’s a sting to her words, anger embedded within polite sentences. she has been at this charade for years, it’s like second nature to her ( and that’s the only reason why she’s still keeping it up ---- old habits are hard to break ).

★ There are few things that weigh as heavily on Sirius as the memory of his mother when she decided to kick him out. He’d loved this woman, for all her flaws and the abuse he had to endure. The look of pure disgust on her face as she burned his portrait from the wall - something she’d previously done to other ‘undesirables’ in the Black lineage. It hurt, it hurt more than anything Sirius had ever felt before. It took him a week to recollect himself. A week that he scarcely remembers, but for a tattoo that he doesn’t recollect having gotten. It’s a broken heart on his right pectoral, consumed by flames. Beneath it an unrolled scroll that reads, in Sanskrit: “A mother’s love”. He doesn’t like talking about that episode. And when he arrived at the Potter’s a week after being kicked out, he acted as if it wasn’t a big deal. But it definitely broke one of his heartstrings.

☮ While his best friends know him to be a fiercely loving young man and a delightful friend, others often see Sirius as aloof and perhaps even uncaring. As though the toils and troubles of the world and of other people don’t really matter to him. That’s of course not true, he’s a very compassionate person. But he’s not in the business of letting just about anyone through the carefully designed walls he’s built up. Not out of personal trauma, but out of a general mistrust of other people. He has other friends, but they don’t know him as well as some do.

■ - Bedroom/house/living quarters headcanonHer and Lucius’ bedroom is very comfortable. Of course they have silk sheets and feathered pillows, but the mansion itself does have that cold touch to it. It’s why she enjoys spending more time in the bedroom or outside. It is especially chilling when death eaters come over to talk plans.

♒ - cooking/food headcanonNarcissa does not cook. She orders the elves to do it because she has far too much to do on her own.
