Romantic Fic Rec: A Kind of Redemption by MusIgneus [PG-13]
musigneus wrote a wonderful story driven by Sirius, after his death, for michaelchance and posted it at The Archive at the End of the Universe, 06/08/2007.
Why I recommend it: Giving love a helping hand, even if it's inadvertent, can be a redeeming grace. Here, Sirius--who gets so much ire--gets a lesson in interference and completion. The pace of growing emotions is like the mixing of ingredients within a stew: a dash of salt, a pinch of pepper, a smidgen of paprika, time, and stirring, all done well and with attention to details that are necessary.
My summary: Drawn back to the land of the living, Sirius Black finds out his youthful follies are still playing out. It's up to him to lay them to rest, and help Remus...and Snape.
