Summary
"I don't think I'm ever going to..." he swallowed, "I mean, I don't think I'm ever going to be better than I am."
That was what it all was about anyway; outgrowing all the things about him that made him scared to be alone with himself. There was something wrong deep down inside of him that had always existed. It's the thing that makes people so scared of him. It's the thing that drives the people he loves, and who are supposed to love him, away.
Or
When Sirius' parents are determined to marry him off before he turns seventeen, he runs away from home to lead his own life.

Summary
“Mr. Ollivander said it’s strong,” Sirius replied, unable to keep from bragging. “He said it was a good wand.”
“Yes,” she reached out and touched his cheek. “You’ll be excellent.”
He wanted to hug her; to squash his face in her blouse, but his father was watching and he was supposed to be grown up. He settled for the praise, replaying her words in his mind all that night.
Sirius and Walburga’s relationship. The intricacies in a broken family.

Summary
They were four years apart, and Bellatrix had always seemed so insanely older than her. Faster, bigger, and smarter; so much smarter. Andromeda had always been the one to bridge that gap between them, but since she had gone- or even before that, it was like they lived in completely different worlds.
“Bella?”
Her sister looked at her, obviously expecting her to say more, but she couldn’t.
She just wanted some acknowledgment that she wasn’t the only one who thought like that. That Bellatrix knew about this huge gap between them, but cared enough to feel sad about it, to mourn it. Couldn’t they at least connect through grief if nothing else?
“Am I doing the right thing?”

Summary
“It’s just that you’re always so… prepared to fight. You know everyone there wants to kill you and you don’t even think about not showing up,” Eiji answered, not sure if he had explained himself correctly.
“My Life Had Stood a Loaded Gun,” Ash replied, bitterly. As if relaying something particularly cruel.
“What?” Eiji asked, clueless.
Or
Why does Ash feel like a weapon rather than a person?

Summary
“Yes.” Sirius stared back at him as hard as he could, willing him to look back. “I’m leaving. Now.”
What really unnerved Sirius is that Regulus didn’t even look alarmed anymore. He shook his head again. “No. You’ll come back. I know you will. You think this is going to prove something. You think something stupid like that.”
He couldn’t believe what he was hearing. Was his brother being serious? “What?”
“You’re just being stubborn like you always are. You’ll do anything to rebel. To make a point.” He was nodding now as if trying to convince himself of his own words.
He laughed bitterly. “That’s what you think I’m doing? Trying to prove a point? Is that what this is to you?” And now he had the annoying feeling like he was about to cry. He pushed it down. “I guess it’s just another one of my antics then, huh?”
