"Okay, mate," replied Sirius, reading Remus' look with practiced ease. With a quick spell, he bound the now straightened leg-- it would be easier to heal now that Anathema had found all the right spots, but he wasn't going to try it when he was on a night with no sleep and Remus clearly just wanted to rest.
Instead, he wrapped his arms around Remus' limp torso and, taking great care with the leg, lifted the man into his arms once again.
"Thanks for your help," he said to Anathema, before apparating them to their own bedroom and laying Remus down on the bed.
"Covers, or are you warm?" he asked. Remus was still wrapped loosely in blanket, but it smelled like grass and sweat and blood to Sirius, and he gently pulled it off to be washed, replacing it with the cool bedsheets.
