Regulus raised an eyebrow at Lily. She still remembered his name, interesting.
Regulus knew a few things about Lily and Severus. They'd been friends once. Severus had a massive hard-on for her. And then the 'lake incident' happened, and the two stopped being friends. And then for some unfathomable reason, Lily had coupled up with James Potter. He knew Severus still felt something for her, but there were things you just still never talked about with Severus.
Not many in Regulus and Severus' circle even cared enough about Severus to notice that summary of the history of Severus and Lily. But Regulus did that. He picked up little pieces of information like dropped puzzle pieces and tucked them away.
Regulus stuck the cigarette in between his lips, grabbed the bottle, and found a place against the bookshelf to slide down to the ground where he picked up another book to flip through.
"I don't know how Severus is doing," Regulus said. "Because, well I am here and, well-" Regulus gestured around them, as if to say Severus was not here. He took a drag on his cigarette and turned a page to look at a different rendering of the night sky.
"I didn't think you still cared about him. Not after you ran off and married the person most likely to gut him."
