Prompt 11 - Couch

Previous part First part

Regulus felt strangely nervous at hosting his brother’s boyfriend, especially since Sirius hadn’t been in this house for years. 

Remus appeared in the kitchen doorway. His stomach audibly rumbled, and Regulus saw a wild, hungry look that he’d never seen on the usually mild face of Remus Lupin. 

“Help yourself,” He said, waving a hand across the food he’d managed to prepare. 

Remus lunged forward and began shovelling food into his mouth at such speed. That Regulus was worried he might accidentally swallow the fork. 

Regulus sat opposite Remus at the table and pulled a plate of toast towards him that Remus hadn’t yet gotten to. He opened the Daily Prophet and began to read. 

He finished his toast and coffee, only then looking up at Remus. He was shocked. The food he’d laid out was gone, devoured by the starving wolf. His eyes glanced over Remus, and he swore he still looked hungry. 

Regulus stood and pulled out a few more food items from the pantry.

“Come on, we can go up to the library and do some research.” He wandered out of the kitchen and hoped Remus was following him, as he couldn’t hear him. 

Once they were in the library, Remus flung himself onto the couch. 

“I don’t think I’m going to be any good at researching for a bit. My eyes are tired.” He grunted as he forced his too-long form into the black leather.

“That’s fine. You can go back to your room if you want, get some sleep?” Regulus said as he started pulling books down from the shelves. 

Remus was staring at him suspiciously. 

“Why?” 

“Why, what?” Regulus responded as he flicked to the index at the back of his book. 

“Why are you being so kind to me? It’s unnerving.” Remus’s voice kept cracking every other word. 

“Because Sirius would kill me if I wasn’t.” Remus’s chin quivered at Sirius’s name. “Well, that, and out of all my brother’s friends, you’re the least annoying.” Remus huffed a laugh. 

“What about James?”

“Oh, no. He’s still the most annoying.” Remus chuckled at him and then yawned. “Get some sleep. Lupin. I need that brain of yours to figure out where the rest of the Horcruxes are. 

“So we’re not tracking Sirius down for Voldemort then?” Remus asked sarcastically. 

“Oh, we are.” He smirked as he found the page he was looking for. “But I have it on very good authority that wherever a Horcrux is, Sirius will also be there.” Remus rolled his eyes and settled back down, his soft snores and the occasional turn of a page the only noise in the Black family library.

Animal of the Day!

Gunnison Sage-grouse (Centrocercus minimus)

(Photo by Bob Gress)

Conservation Status- Endangered

Habitat- Western Colorado; Eastern Utah

Size (Weight/Length)- 2 kg; 40 cm

Diet- Sage leaves; Insects

Cool Facts- While maybe not the most well known bird, the Gunnison sage-grouse is an American icon. Gathering in large groups, prize males jostle for the best areas and with dawn their displays begin. Swallowing a gallon of air and pushing it into their throat pouches, the males make a booming noise to attract females. The male with the most stunning tail, thickest neck plumage, and loudest call ends up with all the females in the group. Of course, if a rival gets too rowdy the head male won’t be afraid to chase them off with a few pecks and sharp talons. Hens then gather in small groups to create nests and raise their chicks.

Rating- 13/10 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CeI8gLMl9Vs)

Remembering March 11, 2011

On March 11, 2011, a magnitude (Mw) 9.1 earthquake struck off the northeast coast of Honshu on the Japan Trench. A tsunami that was generated by the earthquake arrived at the coast within 30 minutes, overtopping seawalls and disabling three nuclear reactors within days. The 2011 Tohoku Earthquake and Tsunami event, often referred to as the Great East Japan earthquake and tsunami, resulted in over 18,000 dead, including several thousand victims who were never recovered.

The deadly earthquake was the largest magnitude ever recorded in Japan and the third-largest in the world since 1900.

How It Happened

The 2011 event resulted from thrust faulting on the subduction zone plate boundary between the Pacific and North America plates, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.

This region has a high rate of seismic activity, with the potential to generate tsunamis. Past earthquakes that generated tsunamis in the region have included the deadly events of 1611, 1896, and 1933.

The March 11, 2011 earthquake generated a tsunami with a maximum wave height of almost 40 meters (130 feet) in the Iwate Prefecture. Researchers also determined that a 2,000-kilometer (1,242-mile) stretch of Japan’s Pacific coast was impacted by the tsunami.

Following the earthquake, a tsunami disabled the power supply and cooling of three Fukushima Daiichi reactors, causing a significant nuclear accident. All three nuclear cores largely melted in the first three days.

As of December 2020, the Japan National Police Agency reported 15,899 deaths, 2,527 missing and presumed deaths, and 6,157 injuries for the Great East Japan event.

High Costs

In Japan, the event resulted in the total destruction of more than 123,000 houses and damage to almost a million more. Ninety-eight percent of the damage was attributed to the tsunami. The costs resulting from the earthquake and tsunami in Japan alone were estimated at $220 billion USD. The damage makes the 2011 Great East Japan earthquake and tsunami the most expensive natural disaster in history.

Although the majority of the tsunami’s impact was in Japan, the event was truly global. The tsunami was observed at coastal sea level gauges in over 25 Pacific Rim countries, in Antarctica, and on the west coast of the Atlantic Ocean in Brazil.

The tsunami caused $31 million USD damage in Hawaii and $100 million USD in damages and recovery to marine facilities in California. Additionally, damage was reported in French Polynesia, Galapagos Islands, Peru, and Chile.

Fortunately, the loss of life outside of Japan was minimal (one death in Indonesia and one death in California) due to the Pacific Tsunami Warning System and its connections to national-level warning and evacuation systems.
