Instinctively widening his knees to make space for Sirius to settle, Remus felt a prang in the heart at the gentle intimacy of it; ages ago, he had sat like this with his mother when she untangled his hair. The memory mixed unpleasantly with the dizziness of the shot he had just taken.
The same impulse running its course, Remus let his hands brush over the length of Sirius’ hair, first smoothing it down his spine before moving it over one shoulder. Sirius was wearing a vest, allowing Remus to brush a thumb across the blank skin of the uncovered shoulder blade as he tried to picture the word on the pretty profile of Sirius’ back and neck.
“Here?” he asked to confirm the placement, trying to win time.

“Yeah,” Sirius said, honestly not caring too much about the exact placement of the tattoo, just wanting to have something stupid to cling onto. After all, Sirius wasn’t a stupid man, so he knew that getting drunk and getting a tattoo wasn’t a great idea, but he just needed a taste of that youthful stupidity before it was too late.
“Is it easier for you if I take the vest off?” Sirius offered, but didn’t wait for an answer before leaning forward and pulling it over his head. The safe house was pretty draughty, but the alcohol in his system combined with sitting close to Remus meant that Sirius wasn’t cold.

Sirius’ vest hadn’t actually covered enough of his shoulder to genuinely be an issue, but Remus didn’t get the chance to tell him as much before Sirius had already rid himself of it. It immediately made a mess of his hair again, so Remus repeated the motion.
Sitting behind him, Remus could really appreciate the line of Sirius’ spine and the lean muscle of his shoulders. While Remus knew he was worse off, Sirius had lost weight, too, the war taking its toll on them. Remus wanted to bite each bump of a vertebra poking through his skin.
“Stop moving about,” he muttered, his hand curling around Sirius’ throat to pull him back upright. It stayed there, loose but persistent, as Remus leaned forward beside him to pick up the inkpot Sirius had been using from the floor.
Only then did Remus let go of Sirius as he twisted to place the ink on the kitchen table and picking the needle out of the vodka, and dipping it in the ink.
“We really should have a new needle for this,” Remus warned with little bite as he tried to settle in a good working position, saying it if nothing else to put it on record that this was another poor decision among many.

Feeling Remus’ hand on his throat was enough to shut Sirius right up, always feeling a thrill run through him whenever Remus got a bit more assertive with him.
It was with a grin on his lips that he straightened his back slightly, puffing his chest forward as he did and making the piercing he had gotten a whim through his nipple glint in the light of the kitchen light.
“I don’t think Molly will forgive us if we ruin two of her needles,” he stated, already feeling unsure if she would even forgive them for the one. “It’s fine, go ahead Mooney.”

Perhaps it was the change of perspective, but Remus had the impression that he had been poking the needle into Sirius’ skin for hours, way longer than when Sirius had done his. Not thrilled at the task to begin with, Remus tried his best to make it as neat as possible; as neat as his intoxicated state allowed him, at least. Sirius hadn’t made it easier, having had to correct his posture or quiet some movements a few times throughout it.
“Okay,” Remus announced, having to call it done at some point. He could probably stare at it for ages - would probably stare at it for ages - but unable to erase the small mistakes, he couldn’t improve much further on it. He ran his thumb just under it, studying it, before having to wrangle his gaze off of it, too, not sure he liked it.
Turning to discard the needle into an empty glass, Remus’ now-free hand once again found Sirius’ throat, running up to cup the base of his jaw. It allowed Remus to crane Sirius’ neck back, almost within reach.
“Good job, Pads,” Remus praised, before leaning in to press an off-centered kiss to Sirius’ lips, made awkward and sloppy by the angle.

Sirius grinned happily at that praise, having not really been bothered too much by the pain, and even if he knew that it was stupid he couldn’t help but feel like it was just right. He turned his head slightly, just enough to be able to properly reach Remus’ lips, lifting his hand up to cradle Remus’ jaw.
With how numb Sirius had been feeling for such a long time now, he cherished the feeling of warmth and intimacy that came from being around Remus like this. Not daring to trust anyone much, it was such a huge relief that he could at least trust Remus with this; taking the weight off of his shoulders for just a second.

Nothing would ever compare to the feeling of Sirius chasing a kiss like that, always serving to add to the heartbreak Remus felt, a glimmer of what they could have been if life had unfolded differently for them.
The awkward angle made the kiss indulgent, pointless even, and like it usually happened when they simply shared affections, Remus soon felt like he was overstaying his welcome, doubt creeping up his spine. Breaking the kiss and loosening his grip around Sirius’ jaw, Remus instead pressed a kiss to the crook of Sirius’ neck, a few odd inches away from the freshly tattooed skin, before straightening his posture completely.

Longing for the intimacy that Remus always so easily gave to him, Sirius turned around on the floor again, still nestled in between Remus’ legs.
Sirius placed his hands on Remus’ hips, using them to pull himself such that he could place sloppy kisses up Remus’ neck and to his jaw.
Whenever Remus was around, Sirius could almost forget the sense of loss that seemed to have become the norm for him. He was aware of just how stupid it was to place all of his eggs in one basket like this, but he knew himself too well to ever believe that he could have this with anyone other than Remus.
Deciding to drown out any thoughts of this being a bad idea, Sirius finally kissed Remus’ lips.

Remus’ stomach swooped at the eagerness with which Sirius continued to seek him out, the high tenfold that of any drug Remus had tried over these past horrible years. Remus had yet to come to a place where this was expected, and each time the force of Sirius’ desire was a shock to his nervous system, jostling his heart and mind awake. There was no doubt in his mind that had it been a tangible drug Remus would have overdosed on it years ago.
When Sirius finally reached his lips, Remus grabbed for the back of Sirius’ neck, returning the kiss with an equal amount of desperation. Leaning into the awkwardness of the angle made it the easiest thing to slip off it, wanting so much more than what their position allowed them.
Blindly reaching behind him for the chairback, Remus pushed it away with a scrape of its legs against the tile, as he all but fell to his knees on the floor in its place, chasing Sirius’ proximity, tied to him.

Used to having in much in his head all of the time, never really getting the luxury of forgetting what they were doing, the only thing that properly shut it down was when Remus reached for him like this.
For just this moment everything that existed to Sirius was Remus’ hands on his body and Sirius wanted to drown in it; keen to let the tension go for just a second.
There was something so incredibly freeing in feeling just how eager Remus was for him, making Sirius just as eager. He tried to show this to Remus by running his hands from his hips and up his back, hands spreading out on his shoulders as he tried to pull him further down on the floor.

Perhaps for the first time yet, Sirius hadn’t been at the safe house when Remus arrived back after another month and a half at the camps. It should have been a glaring sign of the poor state of the Order, told a story of how everything was actually going, but really, all it did was gnaw at something selfish within Remus; for the first time in weeks, there was enough quiet around him for his mind to grow busy. Without Sirius here, Remus only heard fractions of the few, hushed conversations that happened around him.
A day had come and gone after Remus’ arrival before the Floo finally flared green. Despite his best intentions to keep himself occupied, the book in front of Remus remained untouched. Instead, after hours sitting at the kitchen table, he had all but picked his fingers bloody in a nervous tick.
Instinctively, Remus straightened his posture as soon as he realised it was Sirius arriving.
“Hey,” he said, and what was really the beginning of a sentence was abruptly cut short into merely a greeting. Gaining awareness of Sirius’ drab state as he spoke it out loud, Remus swallowed the rest of the question to give Sirius an opportunity to even settle.

When Sirius landed in the safe house through the floo he wondered how much one person was expected to be able to take.
It was one thing having to live with knowing that Remus was constantly putting himself in danger, but knowing that James and Lily were completely away as well and he would have no way of getting to them were even more devastating.
Seeing Remus as the first thing upon returning was almost too much for him to handle, knowing just how much they were still going to have to sacrifice before this war was going to end. It made Sirius sick to his stomach especially knowing that he was probably going to be answering questions and he really didn’t want to.
“Hi,” he said in a soft voice, softly brushing the ash off of his clothes, feeling tired and exhausted and more than anything just wanting to go to bed.
