   Summary

   Slowly, Sirius raises his palm and presses it against his chest. His heart—or whatever it is in there—is beating fast, probably because he’s scared. But he’s not stupid, he knows you can’t really take out your heart. It’s just a story for children, but that doesn’t mean it’s not true.

   Sirius knows what it means; you’re a monster if you can’t fall in love.

   --
   On loneliness, and learning to embrace it.
