"I've always thought they were more like brothers than friends," she opined. "Sirius has always been fond of your father, so that doesn't surprise me. Honestly, I used to worry Sirius didn't like me after James and I got involved."
Lily pushed down a pang of frustration towards her sister. "I wish we could have raised you. Your Aunt didn't exactly appreciate our world. She wanted everything to be normal. And I still want us to have pictures. New ones, of the three of us."
She nodded. "There's nothing in the world I'd like more than getting to know you. I've missed so much of your life, and from the sounds of it you haven't had an easy time of it. Were Remus and Sirius around for you, at least? And Peter? I know you mentioned Hagrid and Moody, but Sirius was, or is, I suppose, your godfather, and Remus has always been a very dear friend."
