Harry Potter -- "Howl to the Moon"

[writers_island]

First of three HP drabbles, because drabbles are best in threes; the first was the result of a meme, the second inspired by my dorm room, and I have no idea where the third one came from; the identical lengths were accidental, I swear.

Many thanks to kashmir_ki_kali for inspiring the first, laughing over the second, and crying over the third with me.

Not mine, because if they were, Sirius wouldn't be dead and Tonks would be happily married to Augustus Pye or something.

Howl to the Moon | G | 106 Words

Remus knew the full moon would never get easier. True, at school the wolf did itself less damage, with a pack to run with, but he still came to drained and worried, until James swore that no one had been hurt and he’d been escorted to the hospital wing.

After they’d all left school, someone was always too busy to come for the moon, and more often than not the wolf was without his pack, locked in basements instead of running free. And as the pack disappeared one by one, the wolf howled at night, for stag and rat, yes, but for dog most of all.

Feedback is better than chocolate.

You didn't say I inspired the first one...well, now that's two stories that I've lent my life to. LoL, you never got anything out of my previous debacle!
