The brillance of this is amazing. I think I sit here as gobsmacked as Sirius. If the author is who I think it is, you know I have a not-so-secret love of communist!Sirius and this just adds so much more depth to it than I could have ever imagined.
I've been reading this mid-lecture, which is such bad form (but I had started reading it after my shower this morning and I couldn't stop), and I've had to keep myself from shedding tears during most of the 3rd part. I love seeing the frienship between Sirius and Remus grow and change, seeing why it becomes what it does, how they can begin to read each other with just looks but also why they inevitably devolve as they do in just a few years.
And this: “Just think what I’ll have done by the time I’m thirty.”
I realize it might be an obvious tug at my (or other readers) heart but it gets me every time I read a statement like that.

*sigh* (the good kind)
Again, this is just beyond lovely.
