Why this must be read:
Well, first off, a confession: Pru is one of my favorite writers of, like, ever. She has a terrific gift for character voices, especially the snappy dialogue banter of so many of my favorite pairings. Like this story, for example. Vector is a charming story about post-Hogwarts Remus and Sirius near Christmas, before all the Bad Things happened, in that slight window of time that offers so much possibility for all of our favorite characters from the Maurauders era.
It's sweet and engaging and funny, and given all the snow currently piled outside my door, offers the perfect escape. I prescribe reading with a cup of tea and a soft blanket.
And it had been a wonder, toward the middle of seventh year, when Remus had started wearing dark brown gloves to classes instead of gray ones. Where apologies and contrition and tears and stalking the Lupin household over summer had failed, Sirius found success in Remus' innate goodness, in being tired of being angry, and in cold weather. There'd been no exact moment, no declaration of forgiveness, just a weary rebuilding of tumbled walls, and Remus' eyes more hazel than black looking over a newly-repaired section, as if gauging Sirius' behavior.
He stared at Remus, silent and still and appreciative, feeling the full impact of what they'd survived in that moment.
