*sobs* *sobs* That was beautifully heartbreaking.
Remus knew the answer to every one of those questions and many more
*sobs more*

I love how took a small little item for Remus to remember Sirius. Remus could probably never eat a roasted potato without thinking of Sirius. So perfect.

Oh and I really liked Sirius feeding Remus from his fork!

Oh, that was truly lovely and felt very, very real. I hope you don't take this wrong, but you write as someone who is acquainted with grief.

It was all beautifully written, but this passage really got to me (in a good way, mind you): Harry didn't want to know if Sirius had preferred morning to evening skies, or if he'd preferred sleeping in a warm or cool room. Remus knew the answer to every one of those questions and many more, but these inconsequential bits of flotsam and jetsam would not answer Harry’s request for one thing about Sirius; not really. So true, so true.

In fact this was all so... true. You captured the essence of both Sirius (LOL to the swear words and major nodding to the love) and Remus and, for that matter Harry and the very concept of mourning.

Beautiful!

And, for what it is worth, from what I know of duck_or_rabbit this is totally, totally her!
