Back in the saddle again: Here's my first attempt at a DH-compliant fic -- although it's actually set Marauder-era. It's a last-minute entry for the Tales of Whiskey and Regret challenge at

redandthewolf.

Title: Letting It Matter
Author:

shimotsuki
Summary: Remus decides to give up wanting things, but Lily won't let him go through with it.
Rating: PG
Warnings: Mild profanity, and a failed attempt at getting very drunk
Word Count: 1273
Author's Note: This ficlet is DH backstory, inspired by the infamous Chapter 11, but it's not a DH spoiler, because it won't give anything away unless you already know what to look for. (I can't promise spoiler-free comments, however.)

( Letting It Matter )

These days, my fic time is mostly going toward a WIP featuring the first days of the re-formed Order, with Marauders and Weasleys falling over each other in Grimmauld Place. It'll be the longest story I've yet attempted to actually finish, so that's exciting and scary. But meanwhile, working on that story has made me ponder certain aspects of the dynamic between Remus and Sirius pre-Azkaban, and some of that pondering turned into a Marauder-era ficlet for

redandthewolf.
