This has a terrible beauty, like shards of broken glass glittering in sunlight. Every word paints an entrancing image even while it slices through my heart. I agree with you that for all the fluff that I enjoy, it is their actual canon story with the cracks that grabbed our attention and holds it. It's the idea that they need one another, whether their creator realized that or not.
he allows Sirius to run his fingers along the palm of his hand anyway, lets Sirius stroke his wrist and slide their fingers together, all their angles wrong but somehow fitting together anyway.
I would say that your last line is perfection but every paragraph here is drenched in some vivid image and words that read like poetry.
