Remus' jaw dropped in mock surprise. "Excuse me there, are you suggesting I was pleased to be attended by Miss Niphadore Tonks down there?" He laughed out loud. "honest, Marcella, what ideas you have of me!"

He grinned, almost shyly, not able to contain the spams of laugher that had brought. He had teh impression it was becoming nervous laughing, so he tried to make it pass for a cough. He also needed to do it so that the spams wouldn't hurt him further.

At the mentioning of Azkaban visit, Remus dived forwards to stand. "What?" he asked. "How - why - what would you want to Azkaban for? We are to stay here for your protection, Dumbledore said - we cannot -" he stopped, the rest of his speech muffled by moaning as a result of standing so abruptly. One hand found his ribs all too easily. He could not hide it, he was in pain. He plopped back down, sweaty and agitated.

"How are you explaining to Dumbledore, this?" he asked.


ooc: *Remus blinks* I know... right? *is answered by Nadia* I'm pretty sure Sirius told him or something. Mmh... maybe I should check a couple of threads before. You guys post so quickly *checks* Ah, yes. Definitely knows.

He glared at the man as he moved to snatch the bottle from him and forcibly flung it in his face, smacking him right across the jaw then nose. As Nick held onto the bottle once more and drunk from it, he noted the mans blood made it mighty hard to hold and it smashed to the floor. "Happy now?" he sneered. "I think I'm the better judge of what's good and what isn't, for me."

"It wouldn't be a bad thing. Tonks is a really lovely girl and goodness knows she could do with some loving." she snorted.

"We need to go to Azkaban to see Snape. To keep him sane. Tell him he's going to be a father. Seriously, did you knock your head or something or have you genuinely forgotten?"

She frowned, "Dumbledore was the one who arrnaged it all. Perhaps you need some more rest..." She promptly got up and pushed him so that he was laid down again and pulled the sheets over him, fluffing his pillow.

OOC - Sirius needs help Tonks, he's bleeding!

ooc- what that little punch??? He is a big strong man after all. lol

OOC - He hit him with the bottle.

ooc: What is it with Kristi and violent men?

She sat there and watched as Nick attacked Black with the whiskey bottle. By this time she had fully detached herself from the situation and was watching the scene unfold as she had watched many scenes unfold during her years at Hogwarts when she spent most of her days, when she wasn't in class or studying, spying on her housemates. She couldn't really believe what she was seeing was real. Nick had been perfectly normal just moments ago and then, for some reason, had gotten all upset after making reference to some obscure salt custom. Perhaps there was truth in that custom afterall and she should have tossed some salt over her shoulder... But, that was just some ridiculous superstition.

Kristi didn't know what to do but, she knew she had to do something before Black tried anything stupid. She got up and walked over to Nick. Taking his hand in her own, she looked down at the blood and then, up to Black whose nose was bleeding. "There are potions for nosebleeds in the corner cabinet," she said to Tonks and pointed to the appropriate cabinet before looking back at Nick. "Are you hurt at all?"

ooc: Oh, and I've been forgetting to post this doll thingee I made:

OOC - Can I have a dollie?

Ignoring Kristi, having heard Sirius comment on how they may be lucky if he were in fact poisoned, he pushed the man to the floor, his back thumping down upon the shards of glass which were still scattered on the floor.

Climbing over him, each knee at the mans' sides, he fixed his hands around Blacks' throat and forced pressure upon it, pushing his weight down on him, hoping the glass pierced the skin on his back.

"Never..." he hissed, his eye glowering a dangerous. "Never say that again. You have no idea what it's like to actually be poisoned. Take it back, take it back!!!"
