FIC: The Wicked Cry Alone
Team: Remus
Rating: R
Characters: Remus/Sirius, Regulus, Walburga, Dumbledore.
Warnings: Some descriptions of violence, witch hunting, sexual situations, OC deaths. This truly isn't as dark as it sounds.
Genres: Hurt/comfort, non-HP magic AU [pagan magic].
Words: ~11600.
Summary: Nestled within the woods lies a long forgotten village that lives in old history. Its myths and tales still ring true to those who have not forgotten how to listen.
Notes: Written for the 2012 rs_games. This story is essentially a pagan sort of AU: e.g. still magical, but not the sort we've come to expect from the HP verse. Also, at the time of writing, this was my first ever R/S piece. I hadn't drawn in 5+ years, but I felt inspired for this story. [Must remember that references = good things!]
Many thanks to my beta, Gracie, whose insight, encouragement, and patience has gotten me through some hard times this year. Also profuse thanks to the R/S games mods, who have been immensely understanding.
Prompt: 44: "Fear isn't so difficult to understand. After all, weren't we all frightened as children? Nothing has changed since Little Red Riding Hood faced the big bad wolf. What frightens us today is exactly the same sort of thing that frightened us yesterday. It's just a different wolf. This fright complex is rooted in every individual." -Alfred Hitchcock
Eight is such a tender age. Impressionable, dependent, trusting.
