[24 Sept]
Alex paced his library. Well, he paced in front of the big fireplace. A pensieve sat to one side, near his desk. He felt much better, his burns healed over but still tender, his lungs no longer aching. He found himself filled with restless energy, he couldn't sit still and focus. Hence, the pacing, although Max wasn't actually late yet. He wasn't sure if his restlessness came from being in bed for nearly five days or if it came from the fight he'd had earlier with Morag. And Elle. Merlin have mercy.
He was doomed.
He paced to his desk, lightly resting his hand on the little chest with its precious cargo. The penseive had been delivered just before the attack on Azkaban, and he hadn't had a chance to use it. And he'd wanted to wait for Max. Suddenly the dogs who had been sleeping by the fire, bored of watching their master pace, went tearing off towards the hall, barking fanatically. "Max?" Alex called, moving towards the hall. No wards had been tripped, so it must be his nephew.
