Title: Charcoal
Word Count: 100
Rating: G
Challenge: #204 – artistic
Characters: Remus/Severus
Summary: Moony tries to cope with being alone on the night of the full moon.



Giving Severus’ shirt one last longing sniff, Moony trotted over to the fireplace to curl up and wait for his mate to come home.

After a moment, he went back, grabbed the shirt, and brought it to the hearth with him.

Wishing desperately for his opposable thumbs, he pawed at the ashes, tracing Severus’ profile in a far inferior grade of charcoal. Drawing Severus usually eased the emptiness, but tonight, like this, it just added to the frustrating loneliness. Sighing, he gave up and slept.

He later woke to long fingers buried in his fur and a muttered, “Foolish wolf.”

Awwwwww! *cuddles poor Remus*
What a great take on the prompt! :)
Thanks! *scritches poor Remus*
This was very sweet. I could feel Remus' longing for Severus. Lovely!
Thanks! I'm so glad that came through.
I love Moony dragging the shirt with him, much like a child with a security blanket. Yes, that is definitely longing, and Severus' fingers...that's connection. Well done.
Thank you so much!
