I love this so much. Just...ugh. It hurts in the best way. Sirius is so bitter but it's just years worth of wanting something he thinks he can never have and IT KILLS ME! I think what I love best about this is how you're able to pack so much punch into so few words. Every sentence is like a little punch to the gut.

Kudos on such an awesome piece! ♥

Oh, this made my heart ache for Sirius. You captured his thoughts perfectly and made them so vivid ♥

I loved the ending, especially with that couple who were so similar to Remus and Sirius in the beginning.

Good work :)

good non-magic au can be tricky but you write it very well. at first i kinda hated remus just because he seemed so callous and mean but he totally turned it around and that really made me feel better. i loved sirius from the very beginning. you did a really great job making him feel real and sympathetic. i am glad that you ended it at the airport. i am a big sucker for romantic endings but especially those that take place in public places like that. it was a really great story.

I'm very fond of non-magical AUs, and this one drew me in right from the start. I love the way you portrayed Sirius' thoughts and his longings for someone he thinks he can never have. You managed to make me feel so very much for the both of them without using a lot of words, and that isn't easy!

I really like the way you ended this - hopeful, yet with unresolved issues and the knowledge that it would still be difficult times ahead. (I do hope it'll all work out for Dora as well!)

I totally want to read this story from Remus' POV now :)

Great work!

I found myself thinking of this fic today, and realised I forgot some things in my comment yesterday.
I was really impressed by how vivid the story is, it's like a film playing in my head. Also - the way they more or less start to fight when they finally have time together, was painfully realistic. I was in a long distance relationship a while back, and can relate only too well.
