Uber Rec!!

So I'm not managing to follow fests atm, but this one from [livejournal.com profile] rarepair_shorts caught my attention (guilty pleasure pairing of mine) and it was only short and OH MY DOG!!!!!

Title: Safe
Author: Anon
Pairing: Sirius Black/Harry Potter
Rating: Mature
Word Count: 1,969
Warnings: angst with a happy/hopeful ending, post-war, Sirius!lives (mostly Deathly Hallows compliant, though), Sirius POV, reference to Canon deaths, reference to ghosts, bed-sharing, reference to sexual relations, cross generation relationship, age disparity.
Summary: He’s not James, Sirius tells himself as Harry gets into bed with him on a cold Monday night. He’s not James, but Sirius is not Padfoot anymore either.

My Notes: This is simply beautiful. It is a story about the journey Sirius has been on and the man he has become, but that description just doesn't do the storytelling here justice. It is poetic. I had flashbacks of reading Oscar Wilde for the first time. It is the most moving and inspiring fanfic I have read in a long time, and I beg you to go find out for yourself. And don't forget to love all over it ♥ ♥

I'll be adding this one to my Big Fat Rec List after reveals, rather than editing twice.
