"I know we're meant to change things up," Remus said, hands on hips as he watched his friend coming towards him. "But carrying around a dead body into battle was not what I had in mind."

"Well, maybe you would leave your baby brother to his fate." Sirius glared. "I, on the other hand, wanted to give him a proper burial."

The wolf's eyes surveyed the body. His brow furrowed. "He died eighteen years ago. How is his body still intact?"

"How are you a DADA professor and not know the answer to this question?"

"Well, excuse me!" Remus glared. "Severus took over the sixth- and seventh-year curriculum after you refused to stop turning into Padfoot and attacking me whenever I tried to sit you down and lesson plan."

"All you had to do was say 'sit'." Sirius scrunched his nose. "I'm very obedient."

"No, you're not."

"Guys," Harry said, tugging on his godfather's robes, "there's sort of a death eater attack going on, and we're kind of carrying more than we can handle right now."

"Fine." Sirius shifted his brother's body. "Let's drop this off with Spots and get back to fighting."

"Look who's being insensitive now," Remus huffed.

Severus whipped out his wand at the sound of the portrait hole opening. He scowled at the intruders. Of all the idiotic….

"Black? What are you doing here?" His eyes widened as he caught sight of the animagus's load. "What is that? Who was hurt?"

In response, Sirius dropped the body on the couch. Regulus turned slightly, his face covered in curly brown locks.

"Sirius, is that…?"

"No," Sirius glared, "it's some other body we found in the cave where my brother died."

"But, Sirius…"

"I don't need to go over this for a third time." Sirius grabbed his wand. "Just make sure no one steals him or my daughter." He turned around, yelling over his shoulder. "We'll be back eventually."

Severus rolled his eyes. "So much for subtility." He sighed and picked up Siria. "Well, Miss Black, it appears your father has no concerns over your psychological health. However, I do not want to see you scarred by the image of your decomposing uncle." His eyes narrowed. "Or, not so decomposing…"

He shook his head. Now was not the time to consider inaccuracies in scientific observations. He had an infant to feed. He pulled out a bottle from the cupboard and began mixing the formula just as Dora had shown him. He bounced and rocked a bit. With any luck, he should be able to get Siria down for a nap before her father returned.

"He's just as peaceful as you are when you sleep."

Severus whirled around, babe still in hand. "How did you get in here?"

Pale silver eyes sparkled in the light. "I've been reading in Professor Lupin's room."

"This entire time?"

"Yes. I came in right about the time Harry and Sirius left for the cave."

"And did Professor Lupin know you were there?"

Luna nodded. "He's the one who let me in."

Severus shook his head and sat down. He reclined and propped Siria's head against his shoulder before feeding her.
