[A part of him really didn't want to have this discussion or to even think about what had happened ever again while he could avoid it. However, he also knew that he owed it to Shin to tell him what had happened. No matter what consequences that brought.

Telling Shin about what had gone on back home would bring up a lot of bad things: war, Lily and James' deaths, and the fact that Sirius had gone a little crazy and tried to murder someone and was now in jail and hadn't even succeeded in his 'mission.'

He had a feeling he knew what Shin's response would be to the first two...but that other part...the part Sirius wished he could bury and never bring back up, that one he couldn't guess.

But...after his conversations with Shin and what had happened with Snape...well, what if Peter showed up here one day? Sirius wasn't certain he'd be able to control himself and, by that point, it'd be too late to try and explain.

No...even if Shin was disgusted and pushed him away, he'd rather be open about what he'd done than let it be a snake-in-the-grass at some later point. So, he left a message written out where he knew Shin would find it, a simple 'I need to talk to you whe you have a chance' and then disappeared into their room to wait.

[His grip tightened and he stayed silent for a while. It was hard to believe the conversation had gone this way, but he was glad it hadn't gone the way he'd assumed.]

...thank you. [For everything.]

[shounenphelps]

No, thank you- [Shin pulled back just enough to reach up with his hands to where Sirius's neck met his nape.] For telling me what was bothering you, at last.

[He smiled.] Just because I was a virgin doesn't mean I was - or still am - naïve, Syr.
