Epitaph
Title: Epitaph
Word Count: 100
Rating: G
Challenge: # 22 Cemetery
Characters: Remus and sortof Severus
Authors Notes: The idea for gravestones representing the people was taken from Great Expectations (at least the concept)
He knew as a grown man that it was a foolish notion to think that a gravestone should somehow be a representation of the person... Sirius had not even had one and Lupin was sure he would be buried little more than a pauper. Even so, the cold smoothness of the hard grey stone, the severe curves of letters etching out nothing more than a first and last name made his heart fall. This was no monument, but a bookmark of stone; mostly unmarked, painfully simple, understated and empty.
This was not Severus Snape.
Lupin walked away leaving nothing behind.
