Fic: The Girl I Knew Somewhere (HP: Remus/Sirius genderswap)

Title: The Girl I Knew Somewhere
Fandom: Harry Potter
Pairing: Remus/Sirius
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 2979
Summary: Remix of Strange How We Change applying Rule 63 (for every fictional character, there exists an opposite gender counterpart)
Notes: Written for LJ User Laroseminuit. One of laroseminuit's prompts was Rule 63, which states that for every fictional character, there exists an opposite gender counterpart. As a pinch hit, I didn't have time to ask for permission to apply the rule to one of her stories, so I applied it to one of my own, remixing Strange How We Change. It was a lot of fun thinking about "would a woman say that or stand like that" to figure out what could stay and what had to change and especially, "what got them there in the first place," which I'd honestly never really considered (at least not in depth) when they were boys.
