Depressing title for a depressing start to an RPG that will possibly end depressingly.

Many people are aquainted somewhat with the P&P series as it's affectionately come to be known.

This takes place after the RPG "Love, Lust, Life and Death".

Professor Severus Snape has been set to Azkaban for the murder of Darrin Fletcher. He intended to kill the man after he caught him abusing his lover, Marcella Riddle, daughter to the Dark Lord. However, the boy, under the control of Voldemort, defied death and kept returning to life to haunt them.

In the end it was Voldemort who killed Darrin as he heroically fought off the posession of the Dark Lord and died in the process.

But, because Marcella and Darrin were the only people present at this, there is no evidence to suggest Voldemort killed Darrin, other than Marcella's word. So Snape has gone to Azkaban for the original murder of the student.

Darrin came to Hogwarts following the Durmstrang Massacre and it was about this time that he became posessed by lord Voldemort who had learnt of his daughter;s whereabouts, of Snape's double-dealings and of the affair between his daughter and traitorous servant.

The RPG opens in Norway, where Snape and Marcella first met in the RPG "Light met the Dark and Shone". Snape owned a cottage there and was instructed to take care of the girl - keep her safe from her father. In doing so, a bond formed and they grew to love and depend upon each other.

In "Parseltongue and Purebloods" Marcella temporarily took her father's orders and forgot Severus. However, part way through their love was re-united. This was also when Kristi Snape was introduced to the story. In the beginning not many knew of who her father was, but at this point in time, most characters know (apart from those will be relative stranegrs to them). She was a loner and spied on Marcella amongst other students, for her father, who did not want her mingling with them.

Her mother died, somewhat mysteriously and no-one knows exactly how. Snape never was fond of his daughter, he saw it more as his duty to take care of her but throughout the series they have grown closer.

Another character that is present is Nicholas Lestrange, half-brother to Marcella, his mother is bellatrix, his father, Voldemort. At the end of the last RPG he was somewhat dating Kristi and had agreed to move to Norway with his sister and girlfriend.

Kristi, Marcella and Nick are all 18 and have finished school. Under Dumbledore's instruction they must be monitored at all times whilst in Norway. Aurors and Neighbours surround them and, in the beginning, they get on with their lives, each forgetting their horrible pasts. But, eventually, they come back to haunt them when a mass breakout in Azkaban occurs and Snape is taken prisoner by Voldemort. He then uses him to lure Marcella and the others (including the order and Dumbledore) to him, which is when he reveals all he knows about their affair and sets out his plan to punish all who have stod in his path.

OOC: I just call them like I see them.

Sirius watches Marcella wipping her cheek. She's probably right. Kris can be as stubborn as her father and just as pigheaded, so she for sure wouldn't leave Nick's side if Sirius asked her to. "On second thought maybe I should take some food up for both Kristie and Nick. A little dinner might do them both some good," Sirius says looking in Marcella direction. "Why don't you come with me Marcella and let them think it was your idea. They'd probably think I was trying to poison them if I brought it up by myself."

EmmaRiddle · 11-14-2004, 10:26 PM

"Don't see much point..." she said, shrugging her limp shoulders. "I was with them this morning and all they could think about was each other. Besides, being the near them, seeing them together, it just makes me bitter. You know, what with him being away and.." she paused, looking at them, reading their attentive faces. They wouldn't understand. "...you wouldn't understand..." she shook her head.

She-Who-Is-Not-To-Be-Psycho! · 11-14-2004, 10:43 PM

Remus heard at the accussations at criticing by Marcella, more than ready to say that was not what he meant at all, but deciding to keep quiet. The girl had a lot of rage in herself, she would do good to take it out, no matter in who or how. He watched silently as Marcella tried to fight tears, but Remus was in no possition to lend a friendly shoulder. After all, Marcella was right, we weren't exactly Snape's best friends to treat her as such. He instead sat down, by the side of Marcella but giving her space, and not really meaning to say or do anything else. At Tonks' suggestion of checking on Nick, Remus nodded, thinking it was a good idea she took care of said task. Again, he was the new one here, he didn't have confidence with none of the kids to have a normal conversation, much less befriending them all of the sudden. At hearing the last of Sirius and Marcella's conversation, Remus added, "I will do it."

He stood and brushed himself off. "I will make supper and you can take it up to Kristy and Nick, Tonks," he said as he took a handchief out from his pocket and gave it to Marcella.

"You can have dinner on your room as well, if you want," he said this last looking at Marcella. "It'll be ready in 15 minutes or less if I find everything fast."

With that he retrieved, a couple of steps, to the kitchens.

EmmaRiddle · 11-14-2004, 10:52 PM

OOC - We're already at the kitchen table lol!

"I did say I wasn't hungry.." she repeated, gritting her teeth, standing up, stuffing her balled fists into her pockets.

"But, you'll get nowhere without my help.." she added, pushing past him roughly, moving him out of her way. "There's some meat in the parlour and bread in the bread bin. The last time we were here was quite a while ago now so either one of you will have to go to the market tommorow or we'll have to ask Dumbledore to send us supplies. Nick is going to need as much nurishment as he can get...frush fruit and vegetables, that sort of thing..." she said, busying herself with slicing the bread, the muggle way so as to avoid using magic as much as possible - to avoid detection.

Too busy watching Lupin instead as he opened the parlour door and trying to indicate to him where the ham was, her hand slipped and the knife cut into her thumb, the blood trickled down onto the remainder of the bread. Devastated, she swore loudly and stood, crying, the bloodied hand covering her eyes, letting it all out. It wasn't just the bread, though that had pushed her over the edge. It was everything rolled into one. And now that she'd just ruined the bread by cutting herself...well that was the last straw...

She had been a hopless lover, an awful parter and now she couldn't even try to be mother for Kristi and Nick in the right manner.

She-Who-Is-Not-To-Be-Psycho! · 11-15-2004, 02:18 AM

Having denied his handshief earlier, Remus used said cloth to cover the wound in Marcella's hand. He could tell Marcella was again at the verge of tears. Remus decided against doing anything else.

Going over the cupboard, he took some globets and put them down. "I am thinking of making a stew," he commented searching over, "We have enough here, though I could definitely use with your help to find salt - ah, here it is. Why don't you all rest, I will be sure to ask Dubledore for further instructions on the provitions after dinner.

"For now," he added, "think of us as the House-elves." He revolved around, as if looking for something else, not turning to Marcella nor anyone else, "we should be invisible to you all. Do your lives, make yourselves comfortable," he finally turned to her, his eyes both blank and warm.

Standing on tip toes he took all of the things he needed to make a meat stew. True, they will have to make a visit to the market soon, they were running out of things and there was too many people in the house.

ooc- oooooh... I don't have dimensions too clear in here, I was meaning to say he got to the part of the kitchen which was... kitchen... to cook. Arg, I hate not being native to explain myself better (and understand better >.<)

Biochemkris · 11-15-2004, 02:19 AM

She frowned and handed Nick a tissue before consulting the book, once more. "There has to be something... OH. I think I can make it taste a lot better," Kristi said, a smile creeping onto her face. "I'll be back in a few minutes."

With that, she took off down the stairs and ran down into the kitchen. Ignoring everyone else in there, she went straight for the corner cabinet and began riffling throught he cooking spices. Finding the cinnamon and mint, she quickly closed the door and made ready to run back out of the room when she had the unnerving feeling that she was being watched. Much to her horror, she was correct; everyone in the room seemed to be looking at her.

She-Who-Is-Not-To-Be-Psycho! · 11-15-2004, 02:31 AM

It took a couple of seconds for Remus to realize that a figure had just went pass him, almost knocking him off when he had to dodge and hit his head on the wood door of the cupboard, and into the kitchen. He watched, unable to say a word while no other than Kristie rumaged around the kitchen for something, spices maybe? He looked closely out of curiosity to realize one of those was mint, and before he could stop his mouth, he voiced his concerns,

"Is there something wrong? Why are you talking that with you?" noticing how little subtle he had been, he added, "Dinner will be ready asap, if you're hungry you can wait a few minutes, I'm sure, and I doubt that would be enough." He said humored motioning the mint and cinnamon with his head.

Biochemkris · 11-15-2004, 02:57 AM

"Oh... Well... I'm not really hungry," she lied as her stomch gave her away. "I just need to get this upstairs..."

Kristi ubruptly stopped when she saw the genuine concern on this new guy's face. "I'll come back for something, in a bit," she said. "And I can ask Nick if he wants something while I'm up there. What are we having anyway?"

She-Who-Is-Not-To-Be-Psycho! · 11-15-2004, 06:07 AM

Remus smiled hearing Kristi's stomach grumble, "Stew. Meat stew, I am particularly good at those I have been said. Marcella here was helping me get the things ready." He started the fire in the oven while saying this. "Do tell, if Nick can't come down, we can always bring food to him. You will have to wait a couple of minutes though until I get hold of the muggle way of doing this without burning us all."

He smiled and added, "Tell if you need something, we will be down here."

Mrs. Weasley · 11-15-2004, 07:07 AM

Sirius watches as Remus tries to administer some muggle first aid to Marcella while she cries over ruining a loaf of bread. It is obvious she is crying about a lot more than a cut finger. Sirius decides she needs some time to herself and someone to help her properly treat that cut. Since Tonks was going upstairs to check on Nick, Sirius decides to take Marcella to the basement. Snape should have some first aid supplies down there. "Well since it's going to take a while for Remus to get his stew together, I think you should go down to the basement with me and let me help you tend to that cut. It looks pretty bad to me," he says hoping Marcella will take his suggestion and follow him down to the basement. "I'm sure Snape has some medical supplies down there." Knowing Marcella, she won't go without an argument, but Sirius hopes he will be able to lure her down there and give her a little time to herself. They have all been under a lot of strain and need some time to adjust to their current situation.

Biochemkris · 11-15-2004, 04:05 PM

"Thanks," she replied as she hurried back up the stairs. Kristi entered Nick's bedroom, once again, and sat down on the edge of the bed. "You've got a choice between cinnamon an mint. It's all we've got for flavoring that won't interfere with the potion. I don't think it will completely mask the taste but, it should make it a bit more palatable."

fona · 11-15-2004, 05:57 PM

'It's all right,' said Tonks as Kristi rushed from the room. 'I'll bring some up to them in a minute. It's probably best if Nick doosn't move, and Kristi wants to stay with him.'

She shrugged, and rubbing her arm she shuffled over to stand beside Remus, leaning against the counter beside the cooker. 'Want a hand?' she asked.

EmmaRiddle · 11-15-2004, 08:07 PM

Torn between wanting to help Lupin not burn the house down and wanting to cure the pain in her hand, Marcella held the handkerchief tightly over her wound and darted forward, hurriedly whispering a few instructions to Tonks in the hope that she could help Lupin.

Knowing Sirius only wanted to help, she tried her very best not to glare at him as he followed her but couldn't help adding, over her shoulder, as they descended the stairs, "You know, I've been here enough times. I know my way around. I can see to myself..." she started, cloth still wound strongly around her fist.

She was about to turn and look at him and took a step backwards, trying to walk backward down the stairs. Too keen to act the smart alec, her foot slipped and she skidded down the last five steps on her back and landed in the basement on her backside.

"That kinda hurt.." she frowned, rubbing the small of her back, cringing in pain.

"Cinnamon...please.." he added, still in tremendous amounts of pain, it only added to his discomfort to have that bitter, sour taste still lining his mouth. "I'll tell you what, though.." he smiled, taking her free hand, sliding his tumb over her fringers, "Your kiss would make it all the more sweeter. Far more sweeter than either of those two herbs could."

Biochemkris · 11-15-2004, 08:15 PM

Kristi raised her eyebrows at him. "After you just spit up most of that potion and then, drooled it all over yourself? I don't think so," she said as she added some cinnamon to the vial, stirring it with the dropper before sniffing at the potion again. "Well, at least it smells better."

EmmaRiddle · 11-15-2004, 08:22 PM

"Nice to know you'd treat our children well. You do know babies both spit and drool, don't you? Mothers still kiss them despite that." He pouted his bottom lip, almost like a spoilt a child and shook his head, throwing his hair back in a mock attractive manner. "You just don't want to kiss me once because you cant resist me. You know really that if you did, you couldn't help yourself. You'd be overcome by this hunger and you wouldn't be able to stop yourself."

Biochemkris · 11-15-2004, 08:40 PM

She just stood there, staring at him, unable to think of an appropriate, or even an inappropriate response. What was going on in that head of his? She would blame it on the head injury but... Instead of trying to think of something to say, Kristi settled on kneeling next to him on the side of the bed. She held his nose and forced the dropper into his mouth, placing two drops in it, she she held his mouth shut and waited for him to swallow before letting go. "First of all," she said, not waiting for him to recover. "How do you know I even want to be a mother at all, let alone the mother of your children? Second of all... You are full of yourself."

EmmaRiddle · 11-15-2004, 08:58 PM

"I'm not full of myself, I'm just optimistic. If you mean to suggest you could resist me, well then, I'd like to see you try." he said, staring at her defiantly, as if willing her to prove him wrong.

Biochemkris · 11-15-2004, 09:06 PM

Kristi sighed. "I don't know how you put up with yourself. You can deny you are full of yourself in one breath and prove that you are in the next. But, that's beside the point," she said, looking at him, her face serious. "The point is, I'm not going to kiss you just because you tell me to or to prove anything."

fona · 11-15-2004, 09:34 PM

Tonks watched as Marcella left the room follwed by Sirius. Sighing she turned lazily to look at what Remus was up to, leaning back on her elbows.
'So what you do think after your first taste of it then?' she said somewhat amusedly, standing up and grabbing an apple. She sat on the table edge, eating the apple, watching him attempt to cook, debating wether an offer of help would be accepted.

She-Who-Is-Not-To-Be-Psycho! · 11-16-2004, 12:54 AM

Remus turned and got an apron and put it on, not getting his eyes off the oven. His years living alone and single had surely teach himsome things to work in there.

"First taste of what?" Remus asked, half his mind on this. He turned and smiled at Tonks. "It's OK, thanks for the offer of help, I think I can manage."

He did a double take and added, "Actually, Marcella is with Sirius and the Kristi and Nick were hungry so..." He took bread and slized it putting some butter quite fastly in it. "Here, an apperitive so you won't starve while I am at it. Help yourself, and do you think you can hand Nick and Kristi some? You get a good excuse to check on them."

He dropped the knife and handed Tonks a basket with the bread slizes, a preoccupied expression on his face.

"They have been too secretive since I arrived," he said, "but I am in no possition to ask questions or just pop into their lives. I am guessing you have a better understanding of the situation than I do, with luck may even be friends --?"

Remus was interrupted in mid sentence by a loud thump noise coming from the basement, he looks at Tonks as if looking for an answer there.

Mrs. Weasley · 11-16-2004, 05:50 AM

"I am well aware of your abilities, Miss Riddle," Sirius says as he follows Marcella out of the kitchen, "but I'm a stranger to this house and this is as good a time as any for you to show me around the basement." He hoped she would buy his excuse and not protest too much. Marcella needed sometime to herself and her memories, and Sirius hoped she'd feel more at home among Snape's things in the basement. Besides he also wanted to look around the place and see if there were anymore mementos of Faith lying around. He watched as Marcella tries to step backwards down the basement steps and talk at the same time. "Be careful, your going to hurt yourself," he says. Sirius then watches in horror as Marcella slips and falls down the remaining steps. She lands on basement floor and cries out in pain. He hurries down the steps, picks her up, and carries over to the dusty cot against the wall. Carefully placing her on the cot, he starts to examine her to see how badly she is injured. "Are you sure you're alright, Faith," he asks as runs over to the sink and fills a basin up with water. Sirius then find a clean cloth and proceeds to wash Marcella's face. "That was a stupid thing to do. You could have been killed." He continues to apply first aid to Marcella all the while thinking she is Faith Potter.

She-Who-Is-Not-To-Be-Psycho! · 11-16-2004, 08:16 AM

Alerted by the violent sound and not knowing what else to do, Remus stood and went over the srouce of it just to make sure everything was okay. From the top of the basement stairs and looking down, not really seeing much because of the darkness, he called, "Everything alright there?"

fona · 11-16-2004, 02:56 PM

Tonks followed Remus to the basement door. She watched as he called down, peering into the dark.
'Oh for heavens sake,' she said brushing past him. She took several steps and turned to look back at Remus. 'These two have not exactly gotten on since we arrived,' she said by way of an explaination, continuing on down.
'Everything ok,' she called as she descended.

She stepped into the basement room, looking around to see Marcella sitting on a cot by the wall. Sirius was kneeling in front of her, dabbing her face with a cloth. 'Sirius, everything ok?'she asked, hearing him speak but unable to make out the words.

EmmaRiddle · 11-16-2004, 09:27 PM

OOC - LOL A cot in British language is a baby manger sort of thing lol oh the imagery in my head.

"Whose faith?" she asked quizically, getting bits of cloth in her mouth as she asked, as Sirius manically cleaned her face. "I'm Marcella...not Faith.." she said, trying her best to speak with mouth forced shut. She wasn't sure whether she liked this or not. Sure he wa shelping her, bordering on kind for once but the way he held her, took control over her, spoke to her like she was someone else. It was more than disturbing, it was downright creepy.

Glad to hear the voice of someone else, Marcella took the cloth from Sirius' hand fiercely and shouted up, "I'm fine. We're both fine. You get back to making dinner Mr Muggle Home-maker."

Looking at Sirius as if she'd kill him if he said any words to the opposite of what he said, she took the clean damp cloth and threw it to the floor, a look of utter indignation on her face. She hissed, "I'm no child! I don't need taking care of! When I say I can take care of myself I mean it!"

Just as she finished hissing Tonks came down. Annoyed she shook her head dismissively and said, "We're fine!" with gritted teeth, perhaps a bit moodier than was necessary.

Almost at her wits end, she scowled, shook her head and muttered, so that only Black could hear, "What is wrong with you people."

fona · 11-16-2004, 11:09 PM

ooc- getting a visual of one major temper brewing, lol, i wouldn't touch this one with a barge pole.

Tonks started at Marcella's answer, slightly taken aback. She played with the idea of staying, but neither of them was hurt, and judging by Marcella's tone, anywhere but the basement was the place to be right now.
She smiled, backing up to the stairs. 'Just checking. We heard a bang.' She stood awkwardly for a moment, then turning said quickly, 'Don't forget dinner,' before walking up to Remus.

'Looks like Sirius did it again,' murmered Tonks as she passed him, no real sympathy for her cousin. 'They're both fine, but it looks like a fights brewing. I'd give them a while.' She walked into the kitchen and grabbed some bread and fruit from the table.
She came back out to where Remus stood. 'I'm just gonna drop this up to Kristi and Nick. Give us a shout if you need me yeah?'
