    Summary

    There's more than one answer to these questions
    Pointing me in a crooked line
    And the less I seek my source for some definitive
    (The less I seek my source)
    Closer I am to fine

    --Closer To Fine, Indigo Girls

     

    ***
    In January of 1980, Dumbledore hears a prophecy, Remus and Sirius face the unexpected, and there are still two boys born at the end of July who need love and protection: one a Lupin, and one a Potter.

    Summary

    Remus knew, even as a luminescent stag with seven branches to his antlers and uncannily dishevelled fur atop his head sat in front of him and silently howled his name, that this could not be Prongs. It could look like Prongs; it could run like Prongs; but it could not act, communicate, or greet old friends like Prongs. It was simply not possible. It had never been done. It broke all the rules of Patronus magic that Remus had ever known, which was, quite frankly, most of them. But Harry had somehow done it, because the Patronus in front of him was clearly and unmistakably,

    “Prongs.”

    Prongs jerked his head down from his howl, nudged Remus in the chest with his muzzle, and disappeared.

    Summary

    James let his head fall into his hands, rubbing at the temples as if trying to push Remus's words of of his head.

    “Six months.” He muttered in disbelief letting the reality of it all sink in. “I was gone for six months. How did this happen? How did it all get so messed up in just six months!”

    Glancing between his fingers he saw Remus grimace from the doorway. “If we are going to be accurate, we let it get all messed up in seventy two hours. It’s just… still a mess six months later.”

    Or

    James survives on the night of Halloween 1981. Barely. He was badly injured and in a coma which the experts said would be permanent. What no one expected was for James Potter to wake up six months later to a world that he doesn’t recognise, where everything is wrong and his loved ones are hurting or gone.
