As I waited for my muse to come back and help me with Chapter 2 of my Regulus fic, I did my Latin homework. I came across the phrase, and my muse returned long enough to help me with this short fic.

Please, tell me what you think.

You take Latin?
Guh. I don't like the class.. the teacher throws things at us too fast and expects us to learn them as they come..
I'll read your fic! Later... Right now, I'm trying to find out what the problem is with the dialogue in your other fic.. *is asking around in forums*

Thank you, Spot! You're wonderful!

Yeah, latin is hard. I'm loving it though.

Are you just starting?
We're just learning the five cases.. -__- And general house items/nouns.
I don't know how people accuarately translate Latin, though.. There are so many ways to write it! You can put the words in any order, but as long as they have the right endings, it makes sense? @_@ I hate approximations...

Yeah, I'm just starting. The only think I've confidently translated is this phrase that is the theme of this patricular story. That's it. Otherwise...I'm so confused crying

Hokay.. finally a review (after half a page of raving and ranting about Latin rolleyes )!
I really like how you've shown the brothers' relationship so thoroughly even though it's such a short fic.
Also, I really felt for both Sirius and Regulus towards the end.. you wrote the death very well, and made it convey the overall mood without going into much depth.
Except for some grammatical errors here and there, this is a very good fic (as always).

Aw, thanks Spot!

That fic was so hard for being so short eek . I've never actually done a style like that before. I didn't want a lot of detail, but I wanted the mood to be conveyed correctly. I'm so glad I achieved it!

Yeah, it's really hard to show what your characters are feeling without rambling.. you pulled it off, though ^^
