Oh, lovely, lovely, lovely. That was so easy and gentle and humorous despite the undertow of issues. I'm so happy to see this! Maggie

Thanks :) It's taken me a few days to find time again, but I really enjoyed this. I wanted to show that they were both still recognisably the same men as my earlier writing, just older and even more damaged.

Thanks for the comment :) I'm glad you liked it.

[rufus]

oh, sirius. so sad. and also, so funny. and good to see them at play, yes.

[rosemaryandrue]

Thank you :) Sirius fascinates me at this point, because he's trying so hard to cope.

Thanks for commenting :) Glad you enjoyed it.

I like your new layout, and I loveThe weeds were creaking under their feet, releasing the fetid, sodden cornflake stink of neglect

I kind of have no idea what that means, the smell, but I like how it sounds!

He could work out which one Bill was later.

How indicative that time has moved on without Sirius.

[rosemaryandrue]

I can take no credit for the layout - it's one of the new styles LJ released the other day. Purty, ain't it?

*smiles* Have you ever walked past an overgrown patch on the morning of the first rain after a dry summer, when all the dry plants are suddenly wet and rotting? That smell.

I think names and faces must be really hard, especially as he's still associating them with people from his youth.

I'm glad you liked it. Thanks for commenting :)

Oh, lovely and sweet and sadly achy, especially this:

There were times when he was afraid that he had brought something of the Dementors out of Azkaban, some unquenchable hunger for humanity. He rationed himself and held back from touching people constantly just to reassure himself that they weren’t another Dementor dream. The desire made him feel clumsy, over-eager and desperate.

Remus was different. Remus tolerated it with grave amusement, never flinching from pressed shoulders and grabbed wrists. Remus understood without needing to ask.

Oh, Sirius...

[rosemaryandrue]

Thank you :) I tend to see Sirius as an incredibly tactile person, and Azkaban must have had a terrible effect in terms of sheer isolation, quite apart from the Dementors and the rest.

Thanks for the comment :) Glad you liked it.

[carmine_ink]

That was wonderful!

unquenchable hunger for humanity is a particularly brilliant phrase. ;)

Very nicely done. ;D

Lovely layout, btw.

[rosemaryandrue]

Thank you :) I'm glad you liked it - I really enjoyed writing it.

[It's one of the new layouts LJ released the other day. So pretty]
