I don't think love is the best word for what I feel for you.

[doggedly]

Utter devotion, then. You can admit to it, y'know, it's just us.

[theshabbiestofmen]

Sorry, I'm not Wormtail and you aren't James, but nice try.

[doggedly]

Oh, well, give me your word, then!

[theshabbiestofmen]

About what, precisely, that I care for you? You know I do. I'd care for you more if you'd stop scribbling in my books, but that goes unsaid.

[doggedly]

But no deep intense best-mates-for-several-years, been-together-through-nearly-everything, including-mysterious-and-very-sudden-space-voyages love--nothing like that.

[theshabbiestofmen]

Something precisely like that. A deep intense fondness that includes putting up with this sort of idiotic line of questioning.

[doggedly]

[And immediately Sirius grins and slings an arm around Remus' shoulder, tugging him close.]

Yeah, all right. I can settle for that.

[theshabbiestofmen]

[He grins despite himself and edges closer, settling into that grip.]

Shall I make a banner for you?

[doggedly]

Oh, yes, please, you know how I feel about banners, mate. Can't get enough of them. And anyway, I need something to brighten up the old cabin.

REMUS LOVE SIRIUS that's what it'll say

[theshabbiestofmen]

Why not paint it? I've been thinking of doing that for mine, actually.

OH MY GOD laughed toooooooo hard at this

[doggedly]

Really! And here I thought it'd be wall-to-wall books for you.

:D :D :D I KNEW YOU'D GET IT

[theshabbiestofmen]

Yes, two walls-- but the other two could stand to be something other than grey, I think. Yellow, maybe, yellow and red.

OF COURSE AND I LOVE IT

[doggedly]

[Well he's happy with those choices at least, and he gives a grudging snort to show it.]

An appropriate choice. I might do mine as well, if we're going to be doing it--it can only improve 'em.

[theshabbiestofmen]

We might as well offer it as a service, if we're going to be doing this. I'm sure people would appreciate it.

[doggedly]

Moony.

[theshabbiestofmen]

What!

[doggedly]

Why the hell are you so determined to turn us into a charity!

[theshabbiestofmen]

It's not such a bad thing to want to help our fellow passengers, you know.

[doggedly]

Some of them, perhaps. The rest are just a waste of time.

[theshabbiestofmen]

You only say that because you haven't gotten to know them properly.

[doggedly]

No, I can just tell, that's why I say it. Sixth sense. Moony, come on, we can't do everything for everyone!

[theshabbiestofmen]

Well, we can, actually, that's rather one of the perks of magic.

[doggedly]

Yes, but we don't have to. That's rather one of the perks of free bloody will.

thanks MERLIN

[theshabbiestofmen]

But it'd be nice.
