[And he's already left it too late for party planning, really. But... well. Bert asked him to be best man. He doesn't want to let a friend down.]
Sirius, I need a favour.
Please.
<padfoot>
[Knowing Regulus, this could either be something terrible... or he just needs Sirius to pick up some sugar for the cafe.]
Can I know what it is before agreeing?
<TruthSeeker>
I understand that means I'm in charge of arranging a stag party. I thought you might be able to help, since I'm
[...him. Since he's him.]
not the best party planner. It seems more up your alley.
<padfoot>
Excuse me you have a friend close enough to make you his best man and I haven't met him yet?
[Sirius is delighted, and he could be such an arse about this if he wanted to... but he doesn't. So he reins it in, but barely.]
It would be my pleasure! If I may negotiate two things in exchange? Firstly, I might need help affording nice clothes to wear. Secondly, I want to be your plus one to the wedding and party, obviously.
<TruthSeeker>
Yes. Cuthbert Allgood. I live with him.
[If he just drops that in like it's normal and obvious, maybe Sirius won't make a big deal out of it? Maybe?]
And there's no negotiation required. Both terms are fine. Let me know what you need, I have some savings set by that I'm happy to draw on for this.
[Well, keeping Sirius and Bert apart was nice while it lasted.]
<padfoot>
Cuthbert!!
Must say, well done keeping us apart so far. Sorry it has come to this and utterly failed for you.
[He is not sorry.]
Oh excellent, excellent! Is the fellow a bit more of a playful type, then? Since you're asking me instead of planning it yourself?
<TruthSeeker>
[He's joking. Sort of. A little. Not really.]
He's certainly more of a playful type. Rough and ready, you might say. Very fond of terrible puns, bad pranks, and silly comments. Design a party for one of your friends, and I'm sure it will do quite well.
<padfoot>
How lucky for me I can shrink down small and slip through cracks
[Also kidding. Maybe. Probably not.]
Interesting. Very good! Leave it to me! I'll get back to you with a budget soon. I'll try not to fly off the handle with it.
