luthienofold: Remus Lupin/Lily Potter
DESIRE (HAVE YOU EVER WISHED?)
Remus stands downwind.
He isn't hiding. They’re not hidden – Lily and James are just sitting in the sun, talking. Her fingers crook like spider legs; she always shapes her thoughts in the air. She throws her head back, the throat arched, the skin on the back of the neck folding in on itself. The wind carries the scent of her sweat, the staccato of her laugh.
After a while, Remus drops his eyes to his book. There is a career to obtain. A life to be lived. His friends, Lily Evans among them.
Remus always wants what he cannot have.
100 words
Eight drabbles to go (and still taking requests if you want one of your own). And two hours to think up cover letters for two internships before the deadline's up. Doing well on the first one means I don't have motivation to come up with businessbabble for the other two, even though nothing's certain :/
EDIT: One application sent off, one left to go, 88 minutes left until midnight. Go me.
Happy birthday,ninjatrauma :)

Date: 2005-05-01 02:20 am (UTC)Might take a week or so though - I have to re-read Thief of Time, Tokyo Babylon, Neverwhere and The Sign of Four first, never mind rewatching Van Helsing and Once Upon a Time In Mexico before I can get around to re-reading Fionavar... damn, I need to keep more current on my fandoms ^^;
