Summary
"And if he doesn't come back?" James asks. "You hurt him, you know."
"He hurt me," Sirius contends. "I've been living on the streets of fuckin', fuckin', fucken', Ealing. Ealing's a shithole, Jamie. I got mugged. He took my fags and knocked my teeth out."
"Shut up," James says, and seems to mean it.

Summary
Perched on his doorstep, Sirius Black is bedraggled and pathetic. He looks all his fifteen years, rainwater dripping off his sharp nose, dark hair sticking to his forehead, a thick, white curse scar sticking out of the neckline of his muggle sweater.
“Took ages for me to remember the right apartment,” Black mutters indistinctly. “Hey, Moody.”
“That’s Auror Moody to you,” Alastor says, without much heat to it. “What are you waiting for, boy? Come in, there’s no use in talking on doorsteps-”
Black shuffles inside. Under the flickering overhead light, he’s sallow and translucent, like you could walk right through him if you wanted to.
.
(or: a war is coming, and Alastor Moody knows enough about war that when he finds a spy in young Sirius Black, he makes a series of difficult decisions.)

Summary
“C’mon mate,” Ron says, swallowing thickly. His hand slides from Harry’s shoulder to behind his head, preventing it from rolling and snapping back and forth. “You’re asleep, it’s okay.”
Or, Ron is woken up by one of Harry's nightmares.
