Sirius didn't know where Godric was so he assumed it would be safe to speak of it with Rowena, however he didn't want people following him, nor thinking it was strange that a Gryffindor student would see another founder instead of Godric, he put on his invisibility cloak, going down the dormitory and leaving the common room. He walked down the stairs going toward the fourth floor, avoiding the pack of people walking. He saw one Slytherin student standing watch on what seemed to be Rowena's office, when the student left he approached it, opened the door and went inside he closed the door, took off his invisibility cloak, pointed it at the door conjuring a spell, to block people that would want to eavesdrop and also to lock the door in case someone tried to get in.

Rowena was sitting in front of the mirror in her room. She looked at her tired pale face, thinking she needed to get some sleep. However she was too afraid to sleep, too scared of haunting dreams and too scared of the truth. Rowena sighed sadly and ran her fingers through her dark hair. She thought she heard the door open and close, but nothing more, so she slowly stood up and took her wand. Rowena walked out of her chamber and into her office with raised wand. She was shocked to see a student, a Gryffindor student standing inside her office. "Mr. Peverell?" she spoke to him "What are you doing here?"

He looked at Rowena for a while, good gracious, she looked like a dead body, all stressed and all that, he shook his head to come to his sense as he kept looking at her, in the eyes, she seemed sad, like something bad happened he just sighed, shoudl he be direct, or wait for a bit, he had no idea, he just put the cloak on, vanishing and took it off again appearing visible, he sighed maybe this wouldn't explain the thing. He eventually took his wand, sending an incendio spell on the cape, and nothing happened, he hope she understood as he looked at her, the cape wasn't burning, no holes at all, it remain untouched and normal.

Rowena raised her eyebrows a bit as she waited for Sirius to say something, but he only stared at her, without saying a thing. Well, he'd always been a bit strange boy, a talented wizard and one of the best students in Charms, but still really strange. Rowena looked at him, shocked and impressed at the same time, when he put the cloak on and disappeared. An Incendio spell hadn't damaged it the slightest. Rowena took a deep shocked breath before she was able to speak to him. "The Invisibility Cloak? Where did you get it?"

"Passed down from father to son in the Peverell family professor.. it's tradition." Sirius said, looking at her, looks like she didn't quite read the book, he kept looking at her though, with his wand conjuring some coffee on a cup, as he approached her with it. "Something wrong professor? It looks like you don't look too good.. pale... a lot pale and tired too. Here drink up."

Rowena just shook her head. His last name was Peverell, of course and she hadn't thought of it before. How could she have forgotten about it? Rowena sighed sadly, she was too tired. She took the cup from his hands and placed it on her desk. "Thank you. No, I'm fine, I am just a bit... tired, that's all." Rowena looked at the boy and moved towards him. "Do you mind if I take a look at the Cloak?" she asked.

"You lie professor, I can tell, you feel sad, like you lost someone important, I understand, believe me, having no friends and being lonely all the time, well guess I'm just a freak to them but I don't mind at least I do my homeworks and work on my spells." He added with enthusiasm and smiled as well, his way of telling her to move on and also his way of saying that, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, he kept looking at her and just nodded for the cape part. "I'll stay here for a while, if you don't mind professor, so I can finish my homework for your class."

Rowena sighed again and took the cup Sirius had given her. The coffee tasted... well, she actually had no idea how it tasted, but she needed something to occupy her mind even for a moment. "You are a smart young man. I should have taken you in my house, but I guess Godric beat me to it." she gave Sirius a small smile, still looking at the Cloak. Rowena wanted to take a better look at it, to touch it, to examine it... His following words shocked Rowena and she just looked at him, unable to speak. "You will... what?"

"Homework professor.. oh it's true." Sirius said, looking into his bag and taking out some parchments, there was like 20 pages of parchment for both homeworks that were all due for a couple of months after, he put them on her desk since he finished them, he smiled taking out his parchment that had some writings on it. "I'm almost done with the end of the year homework professor, I'd like to finish it here, if it's possible."

Rowena wasn't sure whether to laugh or start crying. "Homework... the end of the year homework?" For a brief moment she thought, or rather hoped, that the boy was joking, but it became clear to her that he was serious when he put some of his work on her desk. Rowena glanced at his homework, with raised eyebrows. "There must be over 20 pages... haven't you had any rest during the holidays?"

"Rest?" Sirius said, the word seemed strange to him, why would he rest when he had so much knowledge to gain? He kept looking at her, tilting his head to the side, wondering what she meant. "No I've been working on them, for a while... even in the holidays.. why?" Sirius asked, was it bad if he took no rest? He had nothing to do since most people avoided him, probably because of his hair, he looked at her again, scratching his hair a bit. "20 pages, I chose to talk about the complex charms, all in detail with every incantation and how to wave the wand the right way professor, all on spells that... seventh year students don't really learn, and they are not quite supposed to learn something that complex but my curiosity got the best of me so I studied them."

Rowena had to admit that she was impressed. She picked his papers up and quickly checked them; the boy obviously knew more than any other student his age and probably more than a few adults she knew. Rowena nodded her head to his explanations "I am quite impressed, Mr. Peverell." Rowena smiled at the boy "But, do you ever... have fun? Spend time with your colleagues or just read a book?" she asked gently.

"Colleagues?" He just shrugged, he had no friends so he didn't really have any fun, when she mentioned books he just smiled, taking out two books from his book, that were pretty much bigger than usual, as he put them on her desk, because of the two books he had a hard time to see Rowena. "I just finished these two today, well one of them yesterday, and the one on top of the other book, finished it today." He said, in a happy tone. They were complex books, with different tales, all complex even with complex one of them was a more complex book that talked about spells that was invented by the caster, a spell only he knew. He read those a lot, even learning to invent his own spell thanks to the book.

Rowena looked at his books, she'd read them both, both of them about spells and how to use them. "That's very advanced magic, young man. But I had something else in mind. Books like... stories? Poetry? Old Latin writings?" Rowena looked at the boy again. "It's a great thing that you're such a hard worker, but maybe you should take some time to rest, relax a bit?" Rowena herself needed a rest from everything, so she just sighed calmly, still looking at the student.

"Stories? Poetry.... Old Latin?" Sirius didn't know much about muggle stuff as he looked at her calmly, the only story he really knew though was probably linked with the deathly hallows, he just kept looking at her, still confused, lost like a child that proves that even in his intellect he is still a kid, maybe an adult in the eyes of the wizarding council, but compared to the founders and teachers, he was kid. "But I do rest professor... I go to the forbidden forest to study the different creatures, it's relaxing."
