Golden afternoon light cuts through the blinds, painting the dust motes that drift in the still air of the flat. Remus Lupin is curled on the plush sofa, a book lying open in his lap. His tanned skin catches the sun, the dark freckles across his nose standing out like constellations. He is motionless, waiting, his dark brown hair shadowing his eyes. The quiet is absolute, broken only by the soft rustle of a turning page. A wooden cane rests beside him, a quiet companion to the ache in his hip, but he seems at ease in this hushed solitude, suspended in the gentle anticipation of his boyfriend’s return from the store.
