[ If you build a temple in marble and daub the keystone with the blood of your first-born son, is it an inoculation or a ward? The Clinic always smells like growth, cells repairing and tissues knitting together and flowers with little white cards. River isn't always obvious when she comes, and barely ever helpful, but to her, as a building, it rings more of warm steady hands soothing her back than needles and sharp shocks through the teeth, spilling over, spilling over. ]

[ Today she has bouquets, half a dozen all piled in her arms, and their wrappings crinkle as she climbs the stairs with soft feet. Somehow there's hope in decay, and she will carry them from room to room, silently leaving one behind. They have no signature and no vase; just lilies and chrysanthemums, stark and sweet. ]

[ In the corridors, River hums softly, a few notes, high and sweet. A music-box tune, or a lark song. For a few days thinks were all jumbled but for now everything seems cold and clear and easy. ]

[within the walls of the clinic, it never takes long for him to find out anything that's going on. So he knows she's around, and as soon as he can he finds her.

He won't have much to stay. Mostly, if she suffers it, a hug.

She's another of the main people he hadn't meant to leave like that.]

Remus!

[ There are no more flowers to give, so her arms are free and wide. She skips to him, glad of heart. ]

I couldn't find you.

[ Slightly more concerning for her than most people. ]

[catches and enfolds her for a brief, tight moment. Then sets her free again. Always set her free.]

I couldn't find me either. I hadn't realised I was lost.

[ She takes his hand, flinches a moment, presses it anyway. A sandwich between her own smaller pair. ]

But just in time. In perfect time. A metronome.

I hope so.

[he doesn't wish to talk about himself any more today. …Probably hasn't been, already. But it isn't just avoidance, it's important:]

I want to hear what I've missed. What you've been doing and working on. I owe you… two lessons for this week?
