Remus moved his hand, reaching out to take Sirius' hand and laced their fingers together. "I know you would, Sirius. And I wish like hell that Peter had been trustworthy."
He squeezed Sirius' hand. "Harry's going to need you still, though. There'll be nobody better to tell him about his parents and how much they loved him. Because you know very well that all James and Lily wanted was for Harry to live." Which didn't make any of this easier and wouldn't for a while, if it ever did. "Sirius. It was a good plan. It made sense. The failure of the plan wasn't you. You were ready to give up everything to protect James and Lily and Harry. They know you loved them so much."
