There was... familiarity there, coupled with a great swell of an emotion that Harry couldn't quite put his name on, and he felt almost as if there was just a thin barrier between him and a deluge of memory.
For a second he thought that the man was about to hug him. A prospect that caused him to feel a momentary pang of fear tinged with something that seemed almost like hope. It was strange, and he really didn't know whether he should be panicking or not.
"I'm afraid I can't remember anything that happened further back than a year ago," he said, when it became clear that the man... Sirius wasn't going to embrace him. "I had an accident, you see, a fall of some kind - though nobody quite sure how it happened, because there didn't seem to be anything to fall from where they found me, unless some kind of really low flying aircraft was involved. Well, anyway, I ended up with a few bad head injuries and I've had amnesia ever since."
He almost mentioned the flashbacks, but managed to stop himself before the words came out of his mouth. It probably wasn't a good idea to mention them at this second.
