Notes: There were three prompts and I couldn't pick just one, so I used all three: Sirius' reaction to Remus' smile, keepsakes, and sepia. Plus a bit of besotted!Sirius. Hope you like it! :D

So sweet, but also bittersweet given the prompt and the locket *wipes away tear* Their expressions are wonderful, especially Remus: I have the feeling he's in control....

[cathybites.livejournal.com]

Thank you! and, hee, yes. Remus is definitely in control. :D

That's gorgeous! It's so good when you draw Remus/Sirius ♥

[cathybites.livejournal.com]

naww, thank you, hon! *MWAH*

[rosemaryandrue.livejournal.com]

Oh, this is lovely. Thank you so much :)

I love their expressions and the way Sirius could be pulling on Remus' tie out of shot. The moment captured contrasts so beautifully with the sad setting - the whole picture really captures that bittersweet edge which is what makes R/S so appealing for me. Thank you :)

[cathybites.livejournal.com]

oh, yay! I'm so glad that you like it! and, yes, I actually had Sirius pulling on Remus' tie, but liked it better framed this way.

that bittersweet edge which is what makes R/S so appealing for me
that's one of the things I love about the pairing, too. :D

I love how sharp they are in contrast to the background. It's beautifully done, all of it. I love Remus' scars - totally didn't notice them until just now, but they're great. And the tie. And all of it!

The prompts made this even more bittersweet. In a wonderful way.

Thank you! I really tried for a difference in style between the photograph and everything else. I'm glad it worked! ^_^

Oh, that's wonderful! I especially love Remus's neck and Sirius's hair but, it's all very lovely!

[cathybites.livejournal.com]

Thank you! Sirius' hair is always fun for me to draw.

Oh, it's awesome! What a sweet look at the boys! It's a bittersweet look at them and it's totally touching. Great work!

[cathybites.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I'm really glad the bittersweetness is coming through, because that's exactly what I was trying to go for. :D

[kasche.livejournal.com]

[cathybites.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much!

[onehundredmoons.livejournal.com]

This is wonderful! It has so much life, between the hand holding the locket, and the motion of the locket's photo. Gorgeous!

[cathybites.livejournal.com]

Thank you! y'know, I actually thought about animating the photo, but, well. I'm lazy. :P

[azureflight.livejournal.com]

Love Remus' expression.

[cathybites.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[lush-mirror.livejournal.com]

I really like the concept. Good work!

[cathybites.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :D

[liseuse.livejournal.com]

Oh, this is glorious. I love the semi-smirk Remus has. Definitely the upper hand.

[cathybites.livejournal.com]

Thank you! Smirky, smug Remus has always been a favorite of mine. :D

[ii-heart-david.livejournal.com]

Yay. [:

I love the idea of Remus controlling the relationship, but you never seem to come across it much. Wonderful, thankyouuu. *Thuuuud*

[cathybites.livejournal.com]

YAY! I'm glad to hear you liked it. :D
