He's made a lot of stupid mistakes in his life. The one earlier this year will probably remain at the very top of the list (Moony's anger is sobering; is a pain deep in Sirius' heart he doesn'tknow how to mend. He should have known better than to think he-- whose blood was black in so many senses of the word-- could ever be a proper fit for someone as fundamentally Good as Remus has proved himself to be.)
Throwing himself in front of Remus, though-- That's not a mistake. Even if he knows from Regulus that it's probably going to cost him his life, it feels worth it for the best man he's ever known. It's more instinct than thought that has him protecting the other young man.
Even as the pain rips through him-- more than he ever thought possible-- it feels worth it. The only thing he regrets is not being able to gasp out a final apology before the world goes dark.
It's still a little fuzzy when he wakes again. The bright light that shines above his head is blinding; earns a barely intelligible mutter, "--'m I dead?"
That would be a shame, because most everything still hurts.
