Sirius Black was not mates with Severus Snape. Both of them seem in total agreement to this fact despite that they have, somehow, managed to be more than civil in each others presence lately. There's a strange, sad bond that ties them together, but they aren't friends, regardless of how it might seem from the outside.
Case in point: It's still instinctive for Sirius to suspect Snape of something nefarious when the surly bastard gets to snooping around, and just as instinctive for Sirius to follow along with the hope of catching him in the act. Catching him in the act is a bit more casual these days, and involves more leaning casually in doorways with a cup of coffee than any actual sneaking, but the point is, Sirius is there.
"Filing an affidavit certifying how much you're secretly in love with me?" he asks, bony hip propped against the door frame as he sips from his cup. "Aww, Snivelly, you could have just said!"
