Chapter 1: Universe 42: Bartender

“I don’t know what’s better or worse: that, or having no one to miss.” Sirius’s self-pity immediately pushes outward, washing over Remus. “No, it’s...” He pauses, choking on the word ‘fine.’ “It just is.”

Sirius covers his hand, his elegant fingers weaving through Remus’s. “I hope you know it isn’t because there’s something wrong with you. Or because you’re not worthy of it.”

It’d be an odd thing to say if it weren’t exactly what he was thinking, what he’s thought for ages. It’d be an impossible thing for someone who’d known you for all of five days to recognise. Wouldn’t it?

“I think,” Sirius continues, squeezing his hand, “most of the time it’s just luck.”

“Luck,” he hums. “Not fate?”

“I believe more in patterns. There are certain equations that always lead back to the same loops—or seem to, anyway; infinity is vast. But sometimes it takes much longer to reach the loop, often without a clear reason.”

Remus squints. “Are you describing soulmates? With maths?”

“No. Well...” Sirius’s thumb massages his knuckles. “Maybe.”

“Do you think your husband is your soulmate?”

A long pause. When he turns, Sirius’s eyes are on the ceiling. “I think... that in another life, I would’ve really liked just cleaning his flat with him.”
