[To say that Sirius Black was confused was more than just a bit of an understatement. To begin with, he'd been pretty sure he was dead. . . Then there was that little matter of . . .Well. . . The last he remember was being in the Department of Mysteries fighting Bellatrix Lestrange. Certainly not on a beach or anywhere near a beach. The man in his ragged robes tightened his grip on his wand, clearly more than a little on edge.

If you knew Sirius - or even if you'd only seen his younger self on the island at some point - you might not recognize this man as the same cheerful youth. His hair was untamed, down to his elbows and his face gaunt. The cheerful spark you might have noticed on his younger self was diminished replaced instead with a haunted look - the look of a man who had more than his fair share of troubles in his lifetime.

You might possibly be able to tell if you looked close enough. . . Or perhaps if you knew him well enough. . .But for the most part he was completely unrecognizable as the young man that ran the pet shop here on the island. He was also quite on edge - as if he expected someone to come out with their wands drawn at him any moment now.]

" . . . I see. Well. . . I have more important things to do than to sit around on a tropical island and discuss merpeople. . . So if you'll excuse me. . ."

[. . He attempted to apparate. All that happened was he disappeared for a few seconds. And reappeared about 5 feet left from where he'd been standing.]

"............"

[--hodamn. Sadly enough that's probably the closest anyone has gotten to getting off of this island]

--How did you do that?

" . . Magic."

[. . It was hard to tell whether or not he was being a smart ass with that comment. Regardless. He's going to try this again. And reappear back where he started.]

". . . ."

[. . .He seemed to be getting frustrated.]

[Could probably put to the two together anyway] So you're like.. a magician or something? [Not sure why else you had a wand]

Though uh.. the mermaids are really good at making sure no one can leave willingly, special powers or not.

" . . I was unaware merpeople possessed that kind of ability."

[ . .He should probably be more concerned that he was doing magic in front of a muggle. . .But for some reason this really wasn't bothering him. Possibly because it's not like he can be in a worse situation with the Ministry of Magic than he already is anyways.]

.. These ones are a lot different from the norm.

I mean, there's even death gods here that can't even figure it out. [And even then some]

" . . 'death gods' . . .?"

[. . Quite the imagination you've got there, kid.]

.. W-well, I haven't seen some of them in a long time, though Vigilance is one of them. [... I doubt anyone would want to see Josh even if he was still around]

" . . Riiight."

[There's a pause.]

". . . How do I get to London from here?"

[sadsigh]... You really don't believe me, do you?

But it's like I said, you really are stuck here.

" . . Not really. It sounds pretty far-fetched."

Well, I wouldn't blame you if it does. [even if it was a truth and probably for your well being]

From: [identity profile] marauding-mutt.livejournal.com
" . . So supposing you're telling the truth and this is some fanciful island ruled by mermaids with godly powers and that I'm completely unable to leave. . What the bloody hell am I supposed to do?"

The only choice you really have right now is just to find someplace to live and somehow manage to survive until they eventually send you back.

[That was just. . . . great.]

". . .So what was the point of them bringing us here?"

... No one really knows for sure.
From: [identity profile] marauding-mutt.livejournal.com
[He's going to sigh deeply. Not the he was quite so sure he believed you but. . . Right now that's all he had to go on.]

" . .. and there's absolutely no way to get home? I was kind of busy, to tell the truth, and it's important I get back."

[. . .He doesn't quite realize he was in the middle of dying back home - the only thing that registered to him was that he had been in the department of Mysteries and that his godson was in danger. Getting back to protect Harry was his priority.]

Figured as much XD

[A sigh] Unfortunately no. Though I can't say you're the only one with some unfinished business to take care of. In fact, it seems majority of the ones here all were in the middle of something important... Particularly life or death situations.

The only useful thing I could say about that is for the most part, you return exactly from where you once were. As if everything else had been a dream or so. But you should never miss out on anything from your world. [.... Hopefully]

" . . Hopefully not."

[He's frowning deeply now, clearly still concerned about the situation back home. . . But if this kid was right. . . What could he do? This thought certainly didn't make him feel anyways better. It seemed like to him he was right back in that situation of being completely useless again. He sighed.]

" . . . The name is Sirius Black, by the way. Sorry for being so rude."

[He'd realized that if this was as the other said, using his real name wouldn't matter here. They likely wouldn't have heard of him in a place like this.]
