Summary
Aberforth calls for closing time, and he learns so much more than he expected about his new young patron. And Regulus just feel terribly, terribly alone.A little Regulus Black/Marauder's era angst that I thought up while listening to The Civil War's- Girl with the Red Balloon. That whole album is so Marauder's and Co. coded it actually brought me to tears a few times re-listening to it (I haven't listened to them in years sadly, they were a huge favorite of mine in high school)I don't own any rights to Harry Potter or The Civil War's music <3 If you don't have anything nice to say, maybe keep to yourself but otherwise I'd love to hear from any readers!Do not repost to other sites please
Note
The Civil Wars, Girl with the Red Balloon lyrics:There's a pub on the south side of townTime stands still while there's still wine aroundShe's the one in the calicoThe one who's always and never aloneOh, Did she let him go,Or did the four winds blow him away?Oh does she even know,She's the girl with the red balloon?Keep her glass full of cheap champagneShe will tell of a man with no nameSmoke and mirrors have done her inShe's in love and she won't be againOh did she let him go,Or did the four winds blow him away?Oh does she even know,She's the girl with the red balloon?So lovelySo lonelyFloating awayOh did she let him go,Or did the four winds blow him away?Oh does she even know?Oh did she let him go,Or did the four winds blow him away?Oh does she even know,She's the girl,She's the girl with the red balloon?
