“Mr. Black, it seems you were indeed falsely accused of the murder of the Potters, Peter Pettigrew and all those Muggles,” Amelia Bones said to Sirius. “However, you are still going back to Azkaban for all your other crimes.”
“Other crimes?! What are you talking about?” Sirius asked, bewildered.
“There's quite a list, Mr. Black. Some were already known, while others have only recently come to light,” Amelia replied.
Amelia: “Let's start with escaping Azkaban and evading law enforcement...”
Sirius: “Come on, I was framed! Surely you can let that slide!”
Amelia: “Failing to register as an Animagus...”
Sirius: “Alright, my bad. How about I promise to do that as soon as I can?”
Amelia: “Creating an unauthorised enchanted Muggle object...”
Sirius: “Hey, my flying bike was totally sweet! That can't be a crime!”
Amelia: “Vandalising public property...”
Sirius: “It was just one stupidly annoying talking painting! And those stupid drapes...”
Amelia: “Multiple counts of theft...”
Sirius: “Come on! I had to survive somehow!”
Amelia: “Multiple counts of trespassing...”
Sirius: “Hey now, I just wanted to check on Harry...”
Amelia: “Smuggling a hippogriff deemed dangerous by the Ministry out of the country...”
Sirius: “BUCKBEAK IS INNOCENT!”
Amelia: “Attempted murder of a fellow student by luring him into a werewolf's den...”
Sirius: “SNIVELLUS SNITCHED ON ME?!”
Amelia: “Brandishing a bladed weapon in a student dormitory...”
Sirius: “...Look, I just wanted to kill that one rat—”
Amelia: “Kidnapping and planning to murder Peter Pettigrew...”
Sirius: “THAT RAT WAS ASKING FOR IT!”
Amelia: “Attacking a third-year Hogwarts student, seriously injuring and kidnapping him...”
Sirius: “Look, I already apologised to Harry's ginger friend. Surely that makes it okay—”
Amelia: “And lastly, Apparating without a licence.”
Sirius: “NOW YOU'RE JUST TAKING THE PISS!”
A long silence followed as a furious Sirius stared at Amelia Bones, who refused to even flinch.
Admitting defeat, Sirius tried one last thing.
“...Can I get credit for time served?”
“No,” Amelia stated firmly.
“SCREW THIS! I'M OUT OF HERE!”
Before Amelia could recover from Sirius's Stunning Spell, he had already transformed into his Animagus form and fled.
And just like that, Sirius Black was on the run once again!
@eriksgrafs@teslavangelist@TolkienWorldG Agreed. He didn't want the Ring for the power, he just wanted his father to be proud of him. But when Sam tells him what happened to Boromir, he realizes that even his father's love is not worth taking it.
