I had a most enlightening conversation with Harry this afternoon. The young man has definitely got plans for the future. I'm very pleased his plans are not damaging to the Family. I've offered, and he agreed, to weekly meetings so I can teach him about the nuances of pureblood society. I just need to make arrangements with Sirius to get access to Hogwarts on a weekly basis. Now, what sort of reason can I give Sirius? I can tell Arthur the truth, he hides it well, but he's as devious as any Slytherin I've ever met. But Sirius and Remus are too open and trusting, just like the old fool of a Headmaster.But that's enough time wasted on things that can't be changed. I need to concentrate on a story to supply Sirius if I am going to aid young Harry. It's times like this that I'm glad the magical oath I had to swear was so limited. I have no problem renunciating Lucius" nonsense, but it doesn't stop me from having ambitions. Hmmm; an idea; Sirius wanted me to run his household. That knowledge; as well as knowing how to move in Pureblood Society are very important skills for any young wizard. There is no way Sirius could object to my taking his godson under my wing.
