Summary: Pirate!Igor sneaks Remus onto his ship at night.
Author's Notes: Unbetaed and written at night - if it makes no sense whatsoever, it's entirely my fault.
The alley had never looked half as exciting during daytime as it looked now.
"Are we going where I think we are?" hissed Remus - hissing seemed like the right think to do, what with all the sneaking around at night… The few street lamps provided meagre light, and Remus was amused to see the improbable shadows they cast on the wall. Igor's hat, especially, struck him as particularly funny - flat and wide, and all in all, nothing like a proper wizard's hat. Not that either of them had worn one recently, admittedly. Remus pushed that unwelcome thought away, and reached for Igor to indicate that they could move forward now. Igor reached back, and didn't let go of Remus' hand. They were almost there.
"Here it is!" announced Igor sotto voce, but with an hint of triumph. "The Pearl, my beauty."
Igor reached for the rope barring their way, then, with a little shrug, wandlessly magicked it away before leading Remus on board.
There was little to visit, as the deck was mainly occupied by rows of benches. But it didn't really matter, because the visit of the ship came only second in Remus' list of exciting things the night was offering to the tall, handsome man with the pirate attire who now had casually slipped a arm round his waist. Captivated by the intense eyes of the Russian pirate, Remus smiled for what seemed to be the first time since forever.
"And there I thought you would pretend to catch me when the ship starts rocking," joked Lupin, a little short of breath.
"Can't do that," explained Karkaroff, stepping a bit closer, "the noise would attract too much attention."
Remus' smile grew. "Next thing you'll be saying that's there's no rum either."
"Actually… this pirate is rather fond of vodka," confessed Igor, patting the flask he had in his pocket.
But it seemed that the heavily sugar-scented air that clung around even at night was all that Remus needed to take the plunge. He caught Igor's other arm, and placed it on his own hip, effectively encircling himself into the Russian pirate's arms. "Captain," he announced, voice only shaking slightly, "seems to me that you have caught a prisoner. What will you do?"
Karkaroff bent. "Depends," he whispered, catching delicately Lupin's ear between his teeth. "Do you surrender?"
Lupin nodded.
After that night, Lupin found a reason to almost like his squirrel costume: at least, the awful thing kept people from seeing the fierce blush he harboured the next days when the Parade walked next to the Pirate Ship.
:D
