[Well, well, well. Isn't this just fascinating?

Sirius is in a rather interesting mood, and as undefined and nebulous as that may be, it's actually the best word right now.

He turns on the communicator, because such interesting moods should be shared with everyone.]

Hello there, it's Sirius.

I have to say, this rust that's covering everything is not at all attractive.

[He sounds thoughtful, almost curious.]

What, or who, do you think is behind this? The usual culprits, or something else?

If anyone has found themselves in a bit of a sticky situation because of this, come find me. We'll make the best of this, whatever this may be.

[Sirius laughs at James's feeble attempt to disarm him.]

Well, that didn't work, did it? Is that the best you can do?

[He pauses, waiting for James to respond, taking the time to reconsider his options here; if he keeps using the knife, then he gets to draw things out. Or he could sweep in and end things in one instant.]

What do you think, James? I can end this now, or keep drawing it out. It's really up to you.

[Well, no, it really isn't, but there's no harm in letting James think he's not completely powerless here.]

[James doesn't answer. He actually shoots him a dirty look, because obviously that isn't the best he can do...but he's not about to admit to being at anything less than his best, even though he's fighting with a hurt arm against his best friend.

He chuckles dryly, forcing a grin.]

Where's the option where I get out of here alive?

[He knows there isn't one. He just wants it made perfectly clear that he's not just going to roll over and let Sirius kill him without some kind of a struggle.]

[Sirius just grins at James, resisting the urge to laugh in his face. That dirty look is just hilarious.

What isn't so funny is how James is still laughing when he should be angry or fighting back. Sirius knows James would never cower in fear, no matter who was trying to kill him, so he doesn't waste time waiting for that to happen.]

Sorry, James, that's not an option.

[Sirius swings the knife again, this time aiming for James's uninjured arm. Maybe this will get him to fight back.]
