Chapter 423: Sirius's Talent and Effort
Regulus turned. The door swung wide and Sirius walked straight in.
Good. He'd found some ambition.
Students who sought out a professor's office on their own account were rarely hopeless. It meant they'd learned to take something seriously.
The corner of Regulus's mouth lifted, and something pleased crossed his eyes.
McGonagall glanced up then, her gaze passing over his face before moving to Sirius in the doorway.
Her expression didn't shift, severe and composed, square spectacles giving nothing away.
But after she noticed the look on Regulus's face, her lips pressed together for an instant before she smoothed it out.
Sirius nodded to her first, casual about it. "Professor."
Then his eyes went sideways and found Regulus.
