Heather Morris , author of the Tattooist of Auschwitz, was working with elderly people in Australia and began to listen carefully to a man who had a story to tell. That story became that book. She listened to other stories and they became other books. Listening to, engaging with each other and our stories allows us to notice and name those stories. And this gives voice to the Spirit who works…

@wolfstarmicrofic June 15 - prompt 15: Drawbridge [word count 703]

Slowly, deliberately, Sirius licked from Remus's collarbone up to the side of his jaw, smiling as he felt his boyfriend shiver in his arms.

"Pads... Please," Remus's voice was barely more than a whisper.

"Yes, my love?"

"Not here... Someone might see us."

"Don't worry," Sirius nipped at Remus's earlobe. "We're safe, this is the perfect hiding spot."

It was true. Everyone knew that when summer was approaching the small alcoves at the sides of the stone bridge leading to Hogwarts' main entrance were the ideal place to go with your crush or lover. They were secluded and dark enough that no one passing the bridge could see inside, and they always had that cool temperature useful when you were getting hot. Sirius had often wondered if whoever magically built the stone bridge to replace Hogwarts' old wooden drawbridge had imagined those alcoves expressly for snogging students.

"Are you sure?" Remus asked.

"We won't go in detail about why but yes, I'm sure."

Sirius quickly moved up Remus's jaw to properly kiss him and he felt him relax in his arms, his hands moving up and tugging at his hair in the exact way he loved.

"You know if you keep it up like this I'm gonna have to do more than just snog you senseless," he murmured against his lips.

"Oh yeah?" Remus smirked, his pupils wide. "Like what?"

"Like taking advantage of this place to hear how prettily you can make my name echo."

"Fuck, Sirius..."

There was an echo. They both froze as the bridge almost vibrated with an amplified echo of Fuck, Sirius... They stared at each other, as suddenly the bridge started echoing again, very, very loud.

Not so cheeky now, McKinnon?

Never thought you'd look so good on your knees, baby...

I don't give a fuck about marks, just don't stop!

I'm sure my dorm is empty, please let me get you into bed, love, I'm begging here.

"All of you. Come out now."

McGonagall's sharp voice cut through the echoes, silencing them.

"You said..." Remus started, glaring at Sirius.

"I know!" Sirius rolled his eyes.

"I honestly don't care who you're with or what you're doing, even if I ask you to make yourselves decent before coming here," McGonagall continued. "But all of you are out of bounds past curfew."

Remus sighed and Sirius followed him on the bridge proper, slowly walking up to their professor who had her arms crossed and a stony expression.

"Black, of couse," she sighed as they stopped in front of her. "I'd be grateful if you didn't take my prefects down your undisciplined road."

"You wound me, Professor," Sirius pouted.

"Five points from Gryffindor," McGonagall rolled her eyes. "And five for you as well, Lupin."

"Sorry, Professor," Remus muttered, his cheeks still flushed.

As they walked towards the main entrance, Sirius listened in, curious to hear who else had been caught in awkward positions by the implacable Head of Gryffindor House.

"Five points from Slytherin, Meadowes, and five from Gryffindor, McKinnon. You are both Quidditch players, you should be in bed asleep at this hour the day before a match."

"We were fraternising with the enemy, Professor!" came Marlene's laughter.

"Rosier, Crouch, five points from Slytherin each and I will be confiscating those handcuffs, thank you."

Sniggers echoed along the bridge.

"Evans. I was not expecting you here. Five points from Gryffindor, and five for you too MacDonald."

"Sorry, Professor," Lily's voice was contrite.

"Black."

Sirius stopped walking, about to whirl around and protest he had already had points taken.

"Five points from Slytherin, you should know better than to entertain the Gryffindor captain this late when you'll both be on the field tomorrow."

Sirius's mouth dropped open as he turned to look at the slim silhouette of his brother standing in front of McGonagall, the very familiar and taller one of James right by his side, an arm slung over his shoulders.

"And five points from Gryffindor, Potter. I won't tolerate any yawning during the match, I'm warning you."

"Sorry Professor, I'm actually too happy to apologise," James grinned.

The next thing the bridge echoed with was Sirius's shout.

"PRONGS WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU DOING WITH MY BROTHER?!"

Echo and Narcissus

Artist: John William Waterhouse (English, 1849-1917)

Date: 1903

Medium: Oil paint on canvas

Collection: National Museums Liverpool, Liverpool, United Kingdom

Description

Narcissus was the son of the river God Cephisus and nymph Lyripe. He was desired by both men and women because of his youthful beauty. One admirer was the young man Aminias. He professed his love for Narcissus but was rejected by him. Aminias later killed himself out of grief and anger, begging the gods to teach Narcissus a lesson. They devised the ultimate revenge.

One day soon after, Narcissus is said to have come across a pool in the woods. When he leant down to drink from it, he saw the most beautiful figure in the water’s reflection. He fell instantly in love with the youth, not realising it was his own reflection. Narcissus ultimately dies from sorrow on the banks of the pool, gazing longingly at his own reflection, heartbroken that his love cannot be returned by his reflection.
