"She was the same age as us growing up, but now she's still nineteen and I'm―"
"Technically, she's lived for twenty-seven years."
"Fine, but she's still got the body of a nineteen-year-old!"
"I'd have thought you would be pleased with that," Remus said with a teasing smile.
"Wait. Is that what this is? Are you looking at her and thinking of... of Hermione? I thought
you and Hermione were close.. ."
"No," Sirius answered. "I've never thought about her as Hermione, not like that. I
mean, not when she was only fourteen. Thankfully, I was never around her much. Plus,
she had really big front teeth. Even though it was kind of adorable, it distracted me a bit
because Mia never had that. She ever explain the teeth thing to you?"
Remus inclined his head. "Mia had Pomfrey fix her overbite when she took the De-
Ageing Potion."
Sirius chuckled. "How superficial. I'm going to tease her later for that."
"I'm sure she'll enjoy you making fun of her childhood insecurities while
simultaneously rejecting her sexual advances," Remus said sarcastically. "Good plan. Well
done, Padfoot."
Sirius frowned again, reminded of why he had come to Remus for help in the first
place. "I'm old. What if she doesn't...? What if I can't... ?"
Remus sighed and sat forward, resting his elbows on his knees. "You're the same
age as I am, and I'm perfectly capable of shagging a woman senseless." When Sirius did
not react to the humorous bait, he sighed. "My witch is much younger than myself as well.
You and I aren't so different, Pads."
Sirius refused to make eye contact, subconsciously scratching at the raised scar in
the centre of his chest. "But what Azkaban did to me physically―"
"Was just as devastating as thirty plus years of monthly transformations as a
werewolf."
Sirius bowed his head in agreement but then muttered, "Moony, it's been almost
eighteen years since I've had sex."
"My dry spell lasted nineteen years. Do you want to keep playing this game? Because
I am more than capable and, unlike whatever it is you and Mia are playing at, I'll win this,"
Remus said confidently.
