I'm so happy someone used the Robin Hood prompt and this was such a great interpretation of it! I loved your Remus, he was such a little bad ass. And I love these sorts of fics where they're like "need you NOW!!!" and the love and desire was balanced so sweetly.
James rules in this fic too.
Really enjoyed it!

Second, I love how you reveal Sirius's new awareness of Remus, through their physical proximity and how Sirius is so aware of it now after he saw what he saw. I like how you hint at it in the first section to create suspense & flash back to it in the second to create hotness.
Third, funny, engaging, dialogue-I'm just going to quote back a few random lines I loved:
"Dear old Mum," Sirius says. He sits down by the fire, pictures his parents' indignation at being robbed, fury that the Aurors hadn't killed anyone for it immediately, and laughs. "Wonder if the burglars nicked anything that'll kill them anyway."
"It's more of a sweep," Remus says, leaning in. "Less of a swoop."
"They can fucking well see us," Sirius says. In a moment of clarity, he moves back around the tree to Remus and Disillusions him and suddenly he blends into the tree like a chameleon. "Do me," Sirius says and he feels the spell over him like cool water.(Love the double entendre ( ... )

And the pups! Sirius, how everything has to be his idea, his odd concept of fun, how he takes back his heirlooms and hands them off. I loved every part of him. Remus with his photographic memory, how he's the voice of reason without being a stick in the mud. Omg, I could go on and on.
I... am apparently in the minority here since I tend to skim over smut, but I did find myself actually reading through it instead of scrolling, so good job there. :)
