This Photograph is Proof

one more chapter to go!! Again, hoping for within two weeks 🫡 I know there's a section near the beginning in this one that doesn't have great audio quality. In my attempts to scrape together times to record, I messed up once and there's about a half hour of not-great quality. I'll probably re-do it at some point, but for now, just push through that part 💗

Say Anything, But Say What You Mean

James and Lily convince Sirius to go to a Fidelius show after six days of moping.

🔥I know I've been marking all of these chapters as explicit, because, tension, innuendo, etc. But this one folks ... headphones needed warning 🔥

also, unfortunately I have caught up to myself with what is done of this podfic. I have part of the next chapter recorded, but my time to record seems to have evaporated again lately. I hope, though, to have the next chapter done within two weeks. I'll get it posted the minute it's done 🫡

ADDITIONAL WARNING FOR THIS CHAPTER FROM THE AUTHOR:
"There is an altercation with a police officer, who makes blatantly offensive, racist remarks about "Roman". I believe the scene is important because it is something the character has to deal with in his everyday life outside of his interactions with Sirius, so I didn't want to gloss over the fact that, realistically, this is something he may have to deal with." This section starts around minute 15, for a few minutes.

Just The Basic Facts - Can You Show Me Where It Hurts?

At the same time, he's started texting a mysterious bass player from a pop-punk band that he accidentally swapped phones with. Eventually, the conversations between the two start to blur together and Sirius has trouble trying to decide which one he's falling for the hardest.

Chapter 2! Thank you for any and all sweet comments on the first chapter!
Remus shows up in this chapter (not just as texts from a mysterious person) and you'll notice I am doing an accent of some sort for him. I don't claim to call this an Irish accent. The inspiration is there, but I don't have the skill or the training to do it accurately. Apologies to Irish listeners, I hope it doesn't take anyone out of the story too much. It also changes slightly over the chapters (and different recording sessions) but I think settles into being "his" voice as the chapters go on. I guess I just felt like giving a disclaimer of I know it's not perfect, stick with me if you can.
Thanks for listening!
