They are both in St. Mungo’s Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries. I believe Neville visits them, with his grandmother, during the holidays. They do not recognize him.”

We were opposites at birth
I was steady as a hammer
No one worried ‘cause they knew just where I’d be
And they said you were the crooked kind
And that you would never have no worth
But you were always gold to me
Since some of you were so lovely and adamant about it, here’s Part 2 to the AU: James Potter’s memory is modified by Death Eaters and joins Voldemort in which James’ memories are restored. (Part 1)
Because I was curious…and because seeing Sirius closer to the age he was in the books makes it at least 2x sadder.
