Yeah, so I'm doing THREE 100 Word Challenges. Yes, I have no life. XD This one, unlike my RENT one, will probably not be in chronological order, so if the stories don't make sense together, they aren't exactly supposed to. :) So enjoy the wonderful RemusXSirius-ness! 3
Prompt One: Fingers
String Tricks
"Rem?"
"Hm?"
"What're you doing?"
Remus glanced up from the string that, to Sirius, seemed to be randomly wrapped around his long, pale, lovely fingers. "What do you mean?" he asked, looking back down and twisting his hands in such a way that a loop of string fell off of his left index finger.
Sirius frowned. "I mean, why the hell is there a bunch of string wrapped around your fingers?"
Remus looked up again, this time in surprise. "What? You mean you've never done string tricks before?"
Sirius shook his head. "Nope. Is that what you're doing?"
The werewolf nodded. "Yeah. It keeps my hands busy."
"Are they any fun?" his friend – well, actually, more than friend – asked.
Remus grinned. "I think so."
And so, looping the string around both thumbs and pinkies, he began a complicated and fast paced series of hand movements that Sirius assumed he was supposed to be paying attention to, but quickly gave up on. He was far too busy watching Remus' fingers and thinking about certain other places he'd like said fingers to be just then.
"And that's how you do Jacob's ladder," Remus finished with a flourish, bringing Sirius out of his daydream.
"What?"
The werewolf sighed. "Why do I even bother?"
"Because you love me," the animagus teased. "Now, come on," he said grabbing the other's hand.
"Wait, where are we going?" Remus asked.
"Somewhere your lovely fingers can leave that stupid string alone and play with something else in private."
