"I know. I know that." Sirius reached up to grab the pendant with his hand, realising that he didn't know that. What he did believe was that at this moment, Severus certainly meant it. He smiled, gesturing with the pendant. "Friends forever, right? We can't let anything come between that."
"As long as we keep close, we will. And I promise you, dear Sirius." He picked up his book again and looked away, content to focus elsewhere. "If you ever are so bold as to try blood magic with me, I would never hurt you. You'll see - the magic is far brighter than even the strongest healing spell. Blood is pure and good."
And he was standing by it. "You'll understand one day."
Sirius made a face, simply because of how Severus said 'blood' so close to 'pure'. He heard his family motto, so ingrained in his mind, and everything inside him revolted. With a shake of his head that was followed by really just shaking his whole body around, he jumped to his feet. "We'll see! Hey, I'll catch up with you later, James needs me."
James didn't look overly needy, but he was sure James would welcome his return anyway. And he felt as if he needed some room to breathe. And so he ran over to the lake's shore, catching James, who had gotten out of the water, and tackling him right down to the ground.

Very needed.
