No, your Sirius turns into a flustered, stuttering mess. Mine shuts down and self isolates or gets mean. Mines better-
people saying blackinnon won’t work because they too similar without realizing what that involves. here’s the person that holds the key to turn you into the best version of yourself meanwhile you fight against it so hard. you think you’re fighting them but actually your fighting yourself and no matter how complicated or toxic it might feel at times, the person your yelling at it’s the same person that won’t disappear on you cause they see you. they see the real you under all the layers and yet they also love all of your flaws. and by loving them they get to love themselves. they start to believe there might actually be a place in the world they belong to. they’re not lost, they’re not a disgrace (ahem sirius black im looking at you). someone loves you so hard that they stay, for as long as it takes, for you to realize you’re already worth something.
I have so many favorite hc for blackinnon, but my all-time favorite is Sirius having a bad feeling the night Marlene dies and telling her not to go home, to spend the night in his house, to stay together-- but Marlene thinks he is being paranoid and goes to visit her home, and ends up dying there with her family. I just love the idea that Sirius lives with the regret that only if he insisted more, maybe that wouldn't have happened.
“Believe me,” croaked Black. “Believe me. I never betrayed James
and Lily. I would have died before I betrayed them.”

john wick but is actually sirius black after they kill padfoot, the little black puppy his deceased wife marlene left him.
durmstrang!sirius and slytherin!marlene | dark!blackinnon au
walburga senses, as most mothers often do, that hogwarts may not be the right place for sirius after all, so before his letter arrives at 11, she ensures his place at durmstrang is secured. he is a black, so that’s easy enough. and while sirius is our fully rebellious teenager that we know and love and doesn’t exactly fit within the black family standards, he can’t quite deny that he’s having a bit of fun learning a few new tricks in his heavily dark arts oriented school.
on the other side, we have a completely surprised marlene after being sorted into slytherin. and yet she can’t quite complain. the views from under the lake are stunning and there’s a lot of comfort surrounding her in her new house. and she can’t exactly claim she doesn’t fit in either because after all, not only his father is head of a department in the ministry, but the mckinnons are a well respected pureblood family even if they’re not considered rich enough to commune with the highest wizarding families.
both sirius and marlene are surrounded by people talking day and night about the dark lord and his promises to build a new world and how he will reward his most loyal followers. neither are particularly interested in it and, at this point, they’re both safe enough for them and their families to not being at risk.
also yes, they’re both know each other, seeing as marlene is the daughter of an important figure in the ministry and the black’s business often times coincides within the realm of the ministry, they were the type of kids who tag along their parents from time to time and they were left to socialize. they got along well enough, to the point marlene had been disappointed when certain heir didn’t joined her in hogwarts.
now let’s cut to after graduation shall we?
sirius ends up joining the death eaters because he feels someone has to look after his idiot brother before he manages to get himself killed.
marlene doesn’t join the order given her acquaintances in hogwarts, thinking she might not be able to keep it a secret and believes her family is safe as long they don’t say anything against the new world order that is expected to take over.
except his father ends up using his position in the ministry to his advantage thinking he might have a chance to impact change for good and death eathers find his involvement with the order. they not only set out to kill him, but as a precaution they kill all of his family with the exception of marlene.
marlene has two choices: either join the order and help them win the war or set out to plot revenge for her family on her own. she chooses the latter.
now, in this au regulus tells his findings about the dark lord to sirius and doesn’t die in that cave. but that doesn’t mean he’s saved.
sirius now holds the power to take down voldemort once and for all and because he heard what happened to the mckinnons, set to reach out to marlene playing a bit of double agent himself.
trouble is marlene has found the death eaters headquarters and manages to bring the whole building to the ground all on her own.
now, any guesses who’s little brother was inside that building at the time of the explosion?
that’s right: regulus black.
what’s sirius to do now? especially since marlene is showing no remorse for her actions, claiming it was regulus choice to join the death eaters in the first place, knowing damn well the risks.
omg waiiiit marlene mckinnon laughing her head off ‘cause no way it’s true what girls say about sirius black being a smooth talker when the poor guy only manages to give her half ass compliments that sound too brash to be intented as flirting.

might turn this into an unreleased sirius black’s song for my marauders band au.
i just love this song, this band and actually this whole era of argentinian rock tbh.
“i’m not used to my first day without you,
because i still say we when i think of you.
when the summer ended, everything seemed fine,
now i think of all the things we said unknowingly.
because soon you would leave with no explanation,
maybe it seems easy to you for me to bear this pain (for me to bear your pain).
you forgot some things in your swift departure,
and now they’re like treasures i keep for myself.
[…]
because this is my first day without seeing you
and the room feels gigantic,
i feel so small if you’re not here,
i can’t understand it.”
honestly my translation it’s kinda crap and i really don’t know if im too lazy to do it justice lol or if i love too much the spanish wording for this fuckin anthem of heartbreak.
also BONUS: when they finally figure things out is so easy for them to merge their life together, they don’t even have to question it. ofc both of them wanted to travel the world in sirius’ bike and try every extreme muggle sport possible.

Lily/Remus: That’s a bad a idea
James/Sirius/Marlene: uh huh
Lily/Remus: I’m assuming you already did it
James/Sirius/Marlene: Yup
