That was just super adorable on every level. But, perhaps, more importantly, it was super adorable without being over-cute or anything close to it. Their conversation was amusing and witty and oddly relateable. I love conversations like that!

I also really loved the idea of Sirius hiding. It seems fitting, somehow, and very, very real. Too often he is portrayed as entirely gregarious and extroverted, but I firmly believe that - especially before Azkaban - he would have that need to escape and to be alone to ponder life. Thank you for giving form and voice to that in such a beautiful way.

This was very well-written and a great morning read! I always love your stuff!
