~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Remus shut the bedroom door and sat on the rickety chair before the table. Sirius had passed out drunk in his mother’s room a half hour before. Remus wasn’t surprised. He took out a book of matches and lit the candle with a shaking hand, the low light flickering over the glass frame that covered James and Lily. The door opening startled him.

“I was simply making my report and noticed…if you were perhaps ill…. With the moon on its way…your potion.” The words were stilted and mumbled and spoken into the floor.

“Thank you, Severus,” was all Remus said.

So wonderful. I love how Severus doesn't quite know what to say.

I was expecting more drabbles centering on the Potters' death, so yay you for leading the way *g*

He's no good with these emotional things. :D

So was I! But everyone takes the prompts differently. Thanks!
