Beautifully written but oh so sad. I was really hoping at the end that Sirius would man-up. Sigh. But the progression of the relationship (during the potion and after as well) was really well defined, made sense and was somewhat painful. Poor Remus. Sirius/Remus has always seemed somewhat canon even though JKR never outed them like Dumbles.
Great job, enjoyed it very much.
