can be found over here.
This one was really slow to write, which is odd because it should have been straightforward. They needed to get to Hogwarts, find it all locked up and come up with a way to sneak in. It also needed a little hint of Sirius' reactions to the last section, which the prompt pushed me on a little (this may not be obvious, because Remus is oblivious. I love an oblivious Remus).
I actually went and checked sunset times for this one, and the day lasts about half an hour longer. That real physical disjunction was quite important. This is the start of a new phase of the story and I wanted something strange to mark the change.
I have no idea where the tongue twisters came from. I just guess wizarding kids have their own nursery rhymes and stuff and Sirius was feeling hyper enough to revert to childhood. Oh, and these guys are close enough that everyone can tell him to shut up. No subservient Peter here, thanks.
Gah, the weather has been very un-1976 here, switching between grey mugginess and rain. I wanna write them into a pirate AU (seriously, just visualise it for a few seconds. Isn't that a pretty thought?)
