Sirius Black and the Drapery of Doom

capella_black

Story Summary:
The last day of Sirius's life, and he's trapped at Grimmauld Place with a bottle of firewhiskey and unlimited leisure time. Childhood memories, visits from Order members, and thoughts on Harry, Prongs, Snivelly, Nym, Moony, Reggie, Mother, Kreacher, Buckbeak, Dumbledore, Bella, Andromeda, and more. And, in the end, the inevitable battle and the mysterious veil. (More sad and brooding than funny, despite the title.)
