The day of Sirius's 16th birthday dawned warm and sunny. He woke to find several changes. Firstly, it was odd getting out of bed as he was now taller, though unsure of his exact height, Sirius estimated it was probably around the same as Remus. When he got up, he felt longer hair brush against his neck, and when he looked in the mirror, could see that it was down to his shoulders and amazingly loosely curled and smooth, showing no signs of the straight and control ed short hair from the day before.

Now that is one thing I can get behind. He thought in excitement. He examined himself in the mirror quickly, wanting to get downstairs to breakfast and Remus as soon as possible. His eyes were still blue, but now it was more of a stormy grey-blue than the neon shade of before. His eyelashes were dark and long, making him look more delicate in a way. His inheritance hadn't been able to fix all the damage from his relatives, but his height was not stunted any longer. His ears were also more delicate and pointed at the ends.

Tying his hair back with an elastic he requested from one of the house elves, Harry practically skipped downstairs. He went into the dining room and saw all three of the Lupin's were already there.

"Good morning!" He called cheerfully, having become comfortable in the Manor and able to be more of himself than quiet and uncertain.

Remus looked up then and it was a good thing he'd already put down that glass that had been in his hand a moment ago, because he would've dropped it at the sight of Sirius. The brunette's eyes widened and he blatantly checked him out before smiling and returning Sirius' greeting.

"As you've already been to Gringotts, we don't need to do that for your inheritance, however you might want to read over the test again to see what powers you have. That way, you won't be caught off guard and can begin working on controlling them before you have to return to Hogwarts." Lynal informed him with a kind smile. Sirius had kept using Lady and Lord Lupin either out of nervousness or his ingrained need to be polite, and Hope had put her foot down and insisted he call her that, while Lynal and told him he would like it if Sirius called him Papa. The older brunette reassured the teen that he didn't want to replace Sirius's parents after all they were still he's family by blood, but if Sirius wanted, he would try his best to be another better one.

The group finished breakfast and then went to collect Sirius' inheritance test and give it a read over. A lot had changed since Sirius had now been purged, as the test was bound to Sirius' blood and magic and automatically updated itself. The part they were currently interested in now said, Creature: Water Elf - elemental power over water, resistance to love potions, and sense muddling spells and potions, while Blocks, Spells, and Potions Influencing read: None, tap twice for list of past items.

Harry did this and the words appeared below.

Love potion forcing affection to Molly prewett(cleared by goblin purging)

Loyalty spell performed by  Florence Prewett and keyed to Florence Prewett , Molly prewett and Robert prewett (cleared by goblin purging)

Compulsion spell (unknown) cast by Albus Dumbledore(cleared by goblin purging, compelled to be sorted into anywhere but Gryffindor)

Memory block (unknown) performed by Albus Dumbledore (cleared by goblin purging, memory blocked twice of true fate and Felix Gark's apology, returned in sleep after purging)

Loyalty spell performed by Albus Dumbledore and keyed to Albus Dumbledore and the order of the Phoenix(cleared by goblin purging)

Magical core block performed by Albus Dumbledore(75%) (cleared by goblin purging)

Vessel of fake blood curse(age 11, soul bond curse) (removed by goblin purging and destroyed by Fiendfyre)

Reading though this list, he was shocked at several things. Felix apologised to me? And I just appeared to ignore it and continue hating him. No wonder we couldn't stand each other, it was being magically forced. Continuing to scan the paper, he cleared his throat and looked to Lynal.
