Summary
Remus is, for all intents and purposes, completely alone.
Excerpt:
"As everything flooded back in these snapshots, Remus' heart grew heavy, his mind grew heavy, his body grew heavy. He felt his bones break with each creak of the floorboards, and once he was finally to Sirius' old room, he sat upon the bed and just stared. This was the first time he had had alone in quite some time. There hadn't been a chance to mourn Sirius, not properly, not until now. And maybe that had been a good thing. Maybe he shouldn't have been left alone to grieve. Maybe he shouldn't have survived that day at all. Maybe a part of him didn't. "---

Summary
Remus recalls the time directly after Sirius tricked Severus Snape into going to the Shrieking Shack, and the tension and anger that filled each of the Marauders afterward.
Excerpt:
It was Sirius' own fault for mentioning how James had changed since getting with Lily; it was the thing they all tried to pretend wasn't happening --most especially James. But James was getting lost in red hair and green eyes more often than he was in exploding chocolate frogs and ink that dried as swear words. The dynamic was changing, and nobody wanted to say anything about it. Nobody wanted to say anything about it because it was new and weird and wasn't supposed to be that way. Surely they'd all had dates and crushes and the casual meeting in a broom-closet while skipping out of Potions (most especially Sirius had these), but there were no serious relationships among Marauders. They were a band of boys with a very large hand-painted banner that explicitly stated 'No Girls Allowed', and now James wasn't holding up his corner anymore.---

Summary
Takes place one month after "The Prank" on Snape; Remus finally confronts Sirius about his suspicions that it was not a prank at all.
Excerpt:
"But you did. I trusted you, Sirius, and you..." God, he sounded like such a girl. He felt like a girl. Like some delicate flower that got stepped on and now the petals were all mushed and wrinkled and nobody would ever put him in a pretty vase on their mantle.But if Remus was a flower, then Sirius had become the weed strangling his roots, twining together and choking the life out of him, all while holding up his stem so that his crushed petals might still reach the sun.
Remus was never very good at analogies.

Summary
Remus recalls the first time he ever saw Sirius, and their sorting into Gryffindor.
---
Excerpt:
But James wasn’t embarrassed, and upon Sirius getting to the other boy they exchanged some sort of secret handshake (as all boys of this age must do when meeting a friend, Remus was soon to find out). The Slytherins looked completely… well, Slytherin-like in their utter contempt for this occurrence. Noses upturned and mouths shaped like the whole table had just eaten lemons. The Gryffindors, after such a stunned silence, finally began to applaud politely, if not with a bit of hesitant confusion.
Sirius was the first of any Black to ever be in Gryffindor; it was quite the scandal, and no one was exactly sure how to take it.
Except for James of course, who took it very well.---
