Oooo, this was wonderful. Sirius suffering silently, completely in love with him was slightly heartbreaking and then the final coming together was just brilliant! It made my heart whole again!

Happiness all round! *grins* Thank you very much indeed.

Oh god, I loved this. I have read the "least platonic hug ever" scene three times now -- such an amazing moment. I liked the conversation with Lily too, and James' "rampant adoration" of Christmas. :-)

I'm so pleased to hear it stands up to re-reading, thank you very much!

Adore!!! I loved this. You described that ache of unrequited love so perfectly and the realisation that came with the hug was so simple yet so powerful. And the kiss and the confusion after was marvellous. ADORE!

I'm delighted it worked for you, thank you very much!

Oh this feels soooooooooo good! You have me made extremely happy and cheery and giggly.
Beautiful, so lovely, and funny, and perfect with the kiss and the notes and the wanting and the HUG!!! :D

Aww, yay! Thank you very much indeed!

Oh. That was so lovely. It's been a long while, if ever, that I've read a pining!Sirius fic like this - seems to me it's usually the other way around - and so this was just beautiful to read. And the kiss, oh. My heart is all warm and happy now. Beautiful!!

*beams* I'm thrilled you liked this, thank you! There's just something about pining!Sirius, and you're right, really not a whole lot of it.
