dogdaysofsummer Day 01

Jul 04, 2006 22:32

Right, I have a plan! Though I am not here after the 14th, I'll be damned if I don't give this a crack anyway.

All fics this time round will be set in July 1980, centering around the build up to Harry being born.

Cliffs & Seagulls
PG-13, 450 words
Remus/Sirius
Summary: Sirius wakes up after a rather disastrous camping trip

( Sirius is stranded on a cliff top all alone with a seagull that’s about to peck out his eyeballs. )

fic, pairing: remus/sirius, character: remus lupin, fic: harry potter: dogdaysofsummer, character: sirius black, fic: harry potter

Oh the heartbreak of everyone thinking everything will be fine and normal. Also, Sirius dear, no one is ready for you!

I know... dammit! Still, I find it oddly comforting that at least they thought all of that could happen, for a while

Sirius is an Event, no doubt about it.

Thanks for reading! =D

Oh I like to play in the belief that they thought it could happen. Even if it breaks me into pieces.

He does deserve the capitalisation, that's for sure.

And it's quite alright. Great icon by the way.

‘The question you really need to ask,’ says Sirius with a huge, daft grin, ‘is whether Harry is ready for me!’

Oh, so very, very true. :D

This is lovely. Fics from this era always give me that little pinprick of sadness, even if they're happy -- and this is no different. ♥ I love the opening. Seagull!

Hee, thank you - glad you enjoyed it! =D Seagulls are all things evil, they really are.

Aww, Sirius, he can be such a sweet one. Thank you for this lovely start into the day. :)

such_heights July 5 2006, 07:20:25 UTC

And thank you for reading! I'm glad you enjoyed it =D

I hate you, Sirius means to say. ‘Sally?’

Heh! Oh, I have such love for that line. :D This was very lovely - though I always get a bit sad about fics around this time, even when the boys are happy, it's always bittersweet. Lovely job! :D

such_heights July 5 2006, 19:10:22 UTC

Hee, thank you! I quite liked it myself.

Ugh, I know. I can't believe I've decided to set them all in this period, clearly I'm a glutton for hovering doom,

*sniffle* There should have been a Rose, dammit! Aww, but I love how happy they are here and how adorable Sirius is when he whines. Just lovely!
