"Okay, you heard her, mate," he said softly at the unconscious man. He gave Remus a very gentle nudge, attempting to wake him without jarring the shoulder. Sirius had known Remus a long time, and he knew the man didn't like to be surprised.
Sirius then took his wand and muttered a charm, tapping it against Remus' leg. It should soothe the pain a bit in that area, but Sirius didn't want to try a more thorough numbing charm when Remus is already so out of it. Instead, he took Remus' hand in his and squeezed, hoping it would help a bit. It couldn't hurt worse than transforming did, but Remus was so exhausted, it wasn't fair that this curse should keep hurting him even when the moon had set.
Of course, Sirius has learned many times before that the universe doesn't give a rat's arse about fair.
