Until one day he'd been standing with James and Peter, in the hallway. James had said something, Sirius can't even remember what. But he'd laughed. One of those big laughs. The type that fills your belly. That makes you cry. And when he'd looked up, he'd found Remus's eyes on him.

*Oh.*

That was something.

That was world altering.

The atoms in his body rearranged themselves under Remus's eyes. They needed. Needed. Needed him.

He'd asked Remus, several years later, what had made him look, since it couldn't have been the noise. And he'd only shrugged and said:

"Your laugh is so bright. It's impossible not to notice it. Like not noticing the sun is in the sky."

"Holy mischaracterization, I’m stoping this fic here so I don’t waste my time with the last chapter"

and i just. i keep wondering like. who are they talking about? it's barty's chapter so one would assume him, but he's had povs before this so i feel like if you felt this strongly about it you would have stopped reading already?

but then, that is true of literally every character in this chapter so??? what happens in this chapter that is so radically different from the 26 preceding chapters????

and maybe it's not a character, maybe it's like a topic? an event?

im never not thinking about them

theyve ruined so many random things for me
