Moon To Moon


August 29th, 1996: Day 16

Gods. So tired. I wonder if Severus could come up with some potion or cure that makes the day after the change less wretched... Thank goodness for the Dictaquill spell...

Where was I? Ah yes, yesterday late afternoon. Harry and Sirius were together, so I dueled Harry while Sirius shouted encouragements and suggestions at him from the couch. When I started to skirt the more grey area of allowable spells, he sent Harry away and the two of us went at it until he tripped me up with a series of childish jinxes, leaving me writhing in helpless laughter under a Rictusempra.

Once he Finited me, I noticed Severus hovering in the doorway. He was there with my daily dose, as it was only about half an hour until moonrise. The potion was horrid (my sense of smell was far more enhanced than usual that day) and Severus himself reeked of fear.

On one hand, I feel badly that he is so afraid of me, and I understand that being surprised by a werewolf at age sixteen must have left deep mental scars. On the other hand, I feel disappointed and disillusioned, as Severus is clearly not the partner that I truly long for. The sex was great and I think we could have a good relationship, but he would have to overcome his fear. I can't be with someone who is afraid of me even before moonrise.

For some reason, that hurts far more than it ought to, after just a few shags.

At any rate, Sirius and I went down to the basement, just to be extra safe, in case something went pear-shaped with the new potion. The actual bone-rearrangement seemed to be a shade less painful (I think – hard to tell), and I did keep my human mind, as hoped. Sirius and I romped around the back garden for a bit, then spent the rest of the night snoozing in a happy canine pile in front of the fire Sirius had built.

Sirius is much more cuddly as a dog. As always, his presence is soothing, comfortable. Perhaps I ought to put more effort into rekindling that relationship than in trying to overcome so much bad blood with Severus...

Tired. Sleep now.


Day 17

Yep, I'm in agreement ... I've always liked Remus and Sirius together. Any chance we'll get to see the Boy Wonder and Blondie together at some point? Or maybe Remus smells each of them on the other and is glad that Harry's attentions lie elsewhere now? *hinthintnudgenudge*

Harry and Draco are both back at school, but we'll see if perhaps they put in a guest appearance or something. No fair guessing the plot in advance. ;)

Awww, no more Severus? Although the reason you put across was so valid. Such a good fic.

Remus and Sev do have a lot to work out... You'll just have to keep reading to see what happens between them, if anything. *tease* ;)
