And Blacks Aren't Bad
Theme 80: Author's choice


- The Blacks' annual ball.

For once, all of the Blacks were getting along well, together. Regulus and Sirius laughed as Walburga actually greeted a much despised cousin.

"Mental," Regulus told Geraldine. "The Black family, my darling, is mental."

"And full of pretty faces," Geraldine teased. "Sirius, Bella, Cissy, Dro - you know, the list goes on."

Regulus raised an eyebrow. "Where's my name?"

"Here," Geraldine laughed, and she kissed him. Then she added, "You're too much of a Black, you know. And Blacks -"

Regulus raised an eyebrow. "Yes?"

"Aren't bad," Geraldine said, sticking her tongue out at him.
