drabble: falling. remus/sirius

remus/sirius (of a sort) double drabble for [livejournal.com profile] 15minuteficlets


Remus always liked the first snow, the first real snow, when everything around the castle was softened for a while, sharp edges of the Forest melting away. Inside Hogwarts, it was anything but calm, with students rushing around giddy, trying to focus on the bare minimum required schoolwork before they could escape outside. Strange, he thought, how nature managed to top magic every now and again.

But this year the first snow came too soon after the moon. Still sleepy, he curled by the window, blanket around his shoulders. He read for a while, but his attention drifted, trying to identify people on the grounds below him.

"Looking for someone, Moony?" He turned to see Sirius in the doorway of their room, nose and cheeks still red from the cold, a mug of hot chocolate in each hand. "Stopped by the kitchens on the way up," he said. "Was going to drink them both myself, but you looked so pathetic."

Remus took a mug. "Thanks. Awfully self-sacrificing of you."

"That's me, generous to a fault with my friends," Sirius said, pushing Remus closer to the window and settling in facing him in the window seat. "And sometimes? Even with you."

Ohhhhh... see now I really want you to keep telling the story. This would be such a great beginning to a longer story.

Or, y'know. It could just stay a really great double drabble. Hee.

Strange, he thought, how nature managed to top magic every now and again.

That's my favorite line.

Oh, I just love the relationship you create for them!

"That's me, generous to a fault with my friends," Sirius said, pushing Remus closer to the window and settling in facing him in the window seat. "And sometimes? Even with you."

Completely adorable.

nnnnngg. i try not to write "moooooore!!1!" as feedback. but. omg, more! the tone of this is so beautiful and soft and perfect. and it's so not over yet. i'm in physical need of the next part, here. nnnnng.

[identity profile] marginalia.livejournal.com 2003-12-11 07:13 pm (UTC)(link)
*glee* that makes me so happy because i know at least a little about how you feel about them and so. yes.

and i do want to do more with this. just. i ran out of my fifteen minutes. but it was a good start and i'm not going to let it go. so "moooooore!!1!" is liekomg totally appropriate feedback :)

[identity profile] offscreen.livejournal.com 2003-12-11 06:12 am (UTC)(link)
Continue?

[identity profile] marginalia.livejournal.com 2003-12-11 07:24 pm (UTC)(link)
yeah, i think that can happen ;) for once the fifteen minute thing paid off, getting me started on something longer instead of sputtering out.

i hope.
