Summary: After, they Apparate home, saturated with rain and blood, and the oily slide of dark magic skidding along Remus’s skin like unfamiliar hands.

Oh la-belle. I'm all . . . you got that horrible, gasping, trembling before the break so beautifully right that I'm sad with it - sad for them, for the other bodies they'll find, the other casualties of war (Regulus to come . . . ). And I'm glad they have each other, at least, even if they have too many spoons for two boys who are seeing things they shouldn't xoxox

I'd do that heart thing but I can never remember the code. :">

wait! I just reread - is it Regulus he finds in the basement? The boy with Sirius' nose? because if so you . . . . WAAHHHHHHHH.

Oh, that's lovely and brilliant and horrifying all at once - a potent mix.

taffetablue July 2 2006, 08:24:25 UTC

Thank you so much! I'm glad it all came together for you :x

may i ask you where the image for this icon came from? the style is so different, and i'm not familiar.
thanks.

mizzmarvel July 3 2006, 04:08:34 UTC

I grabbed this icon from a comm some time ago, but the art is by ladymargaret; I believe you can see her stuff at her DevArt account.

Oh, thank you so much. I'm glad you enjoyed it that much.

I really enjoyed this, such a quiet moment in the midst of the chaos going on around them. And so tragic, knowing how everything will all end... The last sentence just *killed* me.

taffetablue July 2 2006, 08:25:12 UTC

Bwah! Don't die! Thank you so much for the lovely feedback.
