"Alright listen," Sirius said the next day at breakfast. "Listen Rigel you're a teenager and since I wasn't there and you and Eliza have been dating for over a year now, you are both fifteen, and it's natural you want to . . . experiment."
"Dad we don't talk about that during breakfast." Rigel sightly said incredously.
"Well, I'm just saying." Sirius grinned. "Remus knows a few contraceptive charms just in case-"
"DAD!" Rigel practically yelled as everyone silently snickered. His face and hair were probably bright red.
"Good morning everyone!" Eliza said brightly as she stepped into the kitchen. She kissed Rigel on the cheek and took his slice of toast.
Rigel grumbled but didn't say anything.
"Good morning." Tonks came equally bright. She tried to steal Rigel's toast but he slapped it off. "Ow!"
"Get your own toast," Rigel said chewing his cereal.
"But Eliza took your's!" Tonks pouted indicating an innocent-looking Eliza munching on her toast.
"She's an exception." Rigel waved off.
"Ha!" Eliza yelled looking smug.
"I can't believe the girl who lived stole my cousin." Tonks moaned.
"There there," Remus said half amused half exasperated.
When Rigel finished his breakfast, he noticed that Harry and most of the Weasleys were staring at the Black family tree.
The tapestry looked immensely old. Nevertheless, the golden thread with which it was embroidered still glinted brightly enough to show them a sprawling family tree dating back to the Middle Ages. Large words at the very top of the tapestry read:
The Noble and Most Ancient House of Black
"So you found the great Black family tree," Rigel's dad said sarcastically walking into the room with Eliza.
"Where are you?" Harry asked scanning the tree.
"I'm there," said Sirius, pointing at the name Sirius Black III but there was no face on it. "Blasted off when I was sixteen."
"There's one burn mark here," Hermione said pointing to a large cigarette-like burn.
"Yeah the family motto used to be there," Sirius answered. "We're in the market for a new one. There's Rigel."
A double line of gold embroidery linked Sirius Black with Kiara Sayre, and a single vertical gold line from their names led to the name Rigel which unlike his father wasn't burnt off.
"Wait how come you're there but not Sirius," Eliza asked.
"You really think my grandmother would've disinherited a parseltongue heir?" Rigel asked raising an eyebrow. "And I'm pretty sure she hoped I would become a better heir than dad."
"Wait a minute, you're related to Tonks?" Ginny asked suprised.
"Oh yeah, her mother, Andromeda, is my favorite cousin," said Sirius, examining the tapestry carefully. "Yes, there she is-"
He pointed to the name Andromeda (whose face was also burnt off) and was between two names, Bellatrix and Narcissa.
"Andromeda's sisters were never burnt because they made lovely, respectable pure-blood marriages, but Andromeda married a Muggleborn, Ted Tonks, so —"
Sirius mimed blasting the tapestry with a wand and chuckled.
"You're related to the Malfoys!" Harry exclaimed.
