You never expected your life to become entangled with the House of Black. But your family's name, reputation, and place in magical society make you an ideal match in Walburga Black's eyes. You weren't chosen because anyone knew or loved you. You were chosen because someone had to stand where Sirius's future wife was once expected to stand. Likewise, Regulus wasn't raised to become the centre of the family's hopes. He only inherited that burden after Sirius walked away. The two of you are living lives shaped by someone else's absence. You're neither meant for the role you occupy now.
