'You are my God, you are my dog
You kept me close, love never lost
I called you hippie, you said fuck off
Said your brother's a real punk rocker
Something's going to happen

Transcending flesh could be a breeze
Sending me, Lord, over the moon

Sympathetic intellect
Choices are for one and all
All we are is leaves that fall, that's all
Water flowing and I will drink it
I will drink for you
A part of me left that only you knew
Will never be understood'

Home by Hera's standard was almost incomprehensible, enigmatic as there'd been times she'd been so close to having that and times it had felt impossible for a girl like her.
But she had that now, didn't she?
And Hera could fully relax around him, trusting that he wouldn't be going anywhere — emotionally, at least. It was because of this she could allow herself to move further with him where otherwise might not have been possible.

"We should go out later, " Hera's brow furrowed, contemplating, "maybe stop by Fred and George's place... I think you'd find it really cool, "

Sirius' eyes widened, "Have you forgotten I'm— "
