   Summary

   Remus is constantly reminded of how there was no room for him in Sirius’s life. No room for a man.
   - So he drowns himself in beer, empty sex, and impulsive decisions.

   Sirius is constantly reminded how he let the one person he loved most go. Just because he was a man.
   - So he drowns himself in sorrow and regret.

   How will one night restore anything?
