Summary: He supposes that this is what is expected of him, to sit here and listen to wetness sinking into the earth and remember how it felt when it was sunny, and there were four of them, and Sirius Black looked at him like he was a piece of the universe he wanted to understand so badly that he was willing to take Remus apart completely and then put him back together.
Notes: This rather atmospheric story relies on the history of a small area in Derbyshire, England, including its vernacular pagan and Christian traditions, quarry mining, and abandoned railways. Please feel free to click on the following links if you would like to know more about
welldressing, the
Longsdune/Longstone entry in the Domesday book, and the
history of the Great Longstone station. Thank you to G for encouragement and beta, and for her inspirational friendship.
