"So please do your best to acclimate yourself to this reality as quickly as possible." Okay, look. This is all well and good for…whatever it is they're trying to do, but I really, really don't have time for this. [It's okay, Harry, we know you're inwardly freaking out about waking up suddenly absolutely not dead. There is a reason that he's keeping the video off for now.] I suppose they don't care about that, do they? Right. Anyway, here's my question. Is there anyone who actually thought they were fictional before arriving here, or are we just believing what we've been told since there's nothing else to go off of? Because no offense, but the last seventeen years of my life have been a bit too chaotic to be anything but real. I can't imagine why anyone would want to fictionalize my life in the first place. Also, fictional or not, can anyone tell me what happens to our lives back where we came from? Do they just stop existing? It's really important that I get an answer. ...er. I think that's all for now. Thanks.

[He's quiet for a minute. The last thing...well. The last thing really was seeing Sirius's ghost along with his parents' and Remus's, but how do you tell someone that? Though if there really was another him at one point..]

The forest.

[The forest. Sirius assumes that Harry means the Forbidden Forest here, so he doesn't ask. He has of course noticed the hesitation in telling him and the look in Harry's eyes and perhaps it's just enough questioning for now. Reaching out he first puts a hand on Harry's shoulder and then just pulls him into a tight hug without another word.]

[Hugs are good. Harry likes hugs even though a lot of the time hugs are simply for giving in case he never sees people alive again. As it is he'll hug Sirius back, barely even thinking how odd everything is. Sirius's age doesn't matter much. He's still Sirius, and he can only assume...]

...so you know.

Don't know about that. I do know I'm proud of you, no matter what.

[It wouldn't take the whole saving the world repeatedly thing for that.]
