Black-and-white (Translation)

80. Birthday with surprises

Harry was excited. At last it was time. Severus had his birthday, and luckily, it was also weekend. he wanted to go to the village with his beloved husband.
His friends and he had reserved the whole fullmoon. His husband would not forget that day so quickly.
Gently, Harry leaned over the still-asleep and put his lips on his husband's.
It was not long before his touch was returned.
The vampire kater beamed happily down on Severus.
"Happy Birthday Sev."
He smiled confused.
"Thanks, I forgot it."
"Hihi, you have me for that."
Again, Harry kissed his husband.
"I could get used to being woken up like this."
"I would like to, but you are usually awake in front of me. Come on, get dressed. The elves have already prepared breakfast. "
Severus followed the invitation with a smile. He had really forgotten his birthday. but that was nothing new.
When he arrived in the living room, he was greeted loudly by all the animals.
"Well, do you like your forest?"
Fawkes nodded excitedly, closely followed by everyone else.
Then the phoenix snatched up a small vial and cried into it. when she was full, he pushed her to the potions master.
"To me?"
Another nod.

"Seems like he wants to give you something as well."
Severus turned and swallowed for a moment. His kid looked stunning. he wore tight black dragon leather trousers decorated with vines and ankle-high boots. His shirt was dark green above it he wore a light frock coat. The vampire kater had left the hair open.
"Beautiful." Severus breathed.
With two quick steps, he was with Harry and pulled him to him.
"Do you want to seduce me?"
Harry chuckled.
"Maybe later. But I wanted to make myself pretty, so you can let me see you. "
Severus let out a dark laugh.
"You would look pretty in everything, but right now I do not know if I can let you out like this. Everyone will stick their tongue out at the sight of you. "
"I do not want everyone."
Again, her lips met.
severus doubted that his kid really knew what he was making with this little innocent sentence in him.
After about ten minutes and other exchanged kisses, the two finally sat down to eat.
severus was pleased to see that it had everything he wanted to eat for breakfast.
"Seems like Dobby and Winky have outdone themselves."
"However, they want to show you how much they like you."
Satisfied, they talked about the food.
then it went into their private forest, there already waiting for the two herds on them.
"They also seem to like it better here than in the forest."
"Of course, after all, there's always spring here. But Hagrid said they are also often outside. especially if he wants to teach the students something about them. "
Severus nodded and stroked a gentle Thestral mare with a thick belly.
"Seems like she's pregnant."
"Is she, I can smell that. The foal will need some time. Probably it will be born in March. "
"You can smell it?"
"Yes, the hormones are changing and so is the smell. I tell you one thing, I do not remember how I got on right before. "
Severus smiled.
They spent a nice time with the animals. Harry even showed him riding on a Thestral. the unicorns did not leave him on her back. The preferred riders who knew what to do. Especially because there were no reins or saddles here.
"How you do that? Do certain parts of my body hurt me? "
Harry almost fell from the Thestral with laughter.
"Just sit down cross-legged. But take off your shoes first, otherwise he will be angry. "
"Understandable."
Harry exchanged his mount and now sat on the leader of the unicorns.
Severus felt a bit awkward, but he wanted to learn that. It was fun.

the rest of the morning they spent reading, and then it was already time to go to the village.
"Severus, come along, we have reserved the Follmoon."
"What, we have to get out?"
"Of course, the others also want to congratulate you. And then there are also gifts. "
severus looked a bit desperate. He hated to be the center of attention, but that was the way his husband was.
So he changed and followed his little one.

"Severus, Harry, there you are finally. Severus, you look great. "
"Thank you Luna, I can return the compliment."
The place was well filled, with teachers, some members of the Order, and students. Everyone wanted to spend the day with Severus. To his surprise, the werewolf and his mutt were also present.
"Well, bat, now you belong to the club of 36-year-olds."
Sirius grinned at him and held a glass in his face. That's right, the Marauders were all older than him.
"However, one does not look at my age." He grinned back.
Theatrically, the Animagus hit the chest.
"Yes, because my innocent little godson is a fountain of youth for you."
Severus could not help it.
"Sometimes he is not so innocent."
The man almost fell off his face.
"Severus please, no details I wanted to eat something later."
somehow the potions master had a lot of fun annoying Black. And he did not seem to mind.
Quickly, the food was then applied and made everyone hungry about it.
After that, gifts were presented.
from Hagrid he got a collection of hair, feathers, scales, and other things he had from beings who all lived in the forbidden forest.
Then came books from all sides, all of them talking to Harry.
"How did you know which books I did not have yet?"
"I asked Dobby for help, he's taking care of your manor. He told me which books you already had. It was not that easy, you have an impressive collection. "
"Certainly, and I'm really looking forward to showing you."
Harry snuggled up to his husband and kissed him quickly on the neck.
He completely ignored the exaggerated strangling sounds of Ron and Sirius.
From the teachers he got a halberd.
It was completely made of magical silver and three blades. Similar to a trident. However, it was narrower, but deadly sharp.
Harry and the other students looked out of the wash, quite confused.
Dumbledore explained.
"It used to be common in old families that every child, whether a girl or a boy, learned to handle a weapon. especially to be able to defend against non-magicians, they should be attacked. One was not allowed to be recognized as a magician.
The Rose family was famous for its skill with the halberd. That's why we thought it was a good idea. "
"Thanks, Albus, and you others. I have not exercised for over ten years, but I think it's great. "
Harry looked admiringly at his husband.
"You can fight?"
"However, my grandfather taught me to handle weapons. But also a lot in martial arts. but I never became as good as him. "
Albus laughed out loud.
"That does not surprise me. Your grandfather also had over a hundred years of experience. "
"She also fights off some spells." Minerva still thought.
Awesome, Severus put the weapon on his side.
From Luna and her father, he received protective amulets against beings who stole knowledge from their heads.
From Dimitrius and the twins he ever got a new invention.
Finally, Harry came. He presented his gift to his husband.
It was a book. The cover was plain. "Salazar's ideas."
Severus looked questioningly at his little one.
"So this gift would not have been possible without Professor Dumbledore's husband. He has a really huge collection of books. He sent me this last year. "
Albus leaned in curiously.
"I've never seen that before."
Harry smiled sheepishly.
"You can not either. It was originally written in Parseltongue. "
Hermione squeaked.
"You can write in parsels?"
"Yes, apparently white vampires and avenging angels can capture any animal language in writing. and the knowledge does not have to be learned either. When Ni ...., I sent the book to Professor Dumbledore's husband, I could read it immediately. "
Everyone looked at the boy with wide eyes, hiding behind Severus.
The Potions master opened the book.
"That's clearly your writing. So you translated it. "
"Yes, it was not that easy."
"Can I introduce myself. When I translate something, I just write it off in the same language. "
Minerva eagerly nodded to Severus. She had already done that too.
Harry laughed.
"My problem was different. Thousands of years ago, people spoke quite differently. I had to roll a lot of dictionaries to understand everything. "
Severus pulled Harry towards him.
"Thank you very much, you do not know what you are doing to me with pleasure."
"Gladly, but unfortunately I have to tell you that you do not have the only copy. The man from our director has the second. "
"Is only understandable. After all, he owns the original. "
"Not anymore, he gave it to Harry."
Harry glared at the director.
"Sneak."
that produced a loud laugh.
