"Where are we now? Are we there yet?" There was more than a hint of a whine in Sirius voice as he asked the question that Remus had quickly learned to dislike.

"It's a wonderful piece of history Sirius. It'll be worth the wait." Remus replied with a sigh.

"You said that about the last stop. And the last, and-" He collapsed back in the seat with a huff. "Why did we have to do this little history lesson of yours the Muggle way? This would be all over and done with on broomsticks or my motorbike. And we wouldn't have had to go on that ferry." Sirius hadn't been fond of the ferry. At all.

"Because it is daytime, Sirius, and it's rather hard to disguise two wizards flying about, regardless by which method, from the curious eyes of Muggles. It's best to blend in."

Sirius let out a feigned groan of pain. "Remus, we've been at this all morning and half the afternoon. And that's not to mention the previous two days! We've seen churches and abbeys and hills and rocks. And sheep. So very, very many sheep." Sirius was momentarily distracted by a flash of brown fur disappearing into the tall grass at the side of the road. "And those damn bunny rabbits dashing across the road willy-nilly, without a care for our tires!"

Remus offered him a small smile. "Then we'll make this the last stop of the day and find a nice inn somewhere to relax for the night before heading back. Alright?"

"Fine." Triumphant, Sirius crossed his arms and sank down in the seat to catch a short nap before he had to listen to another round of Remus' prattling on about local weather, history, and famous wizards of history located in the area.

"We're here."

Sirius opened one eye, reluctantly. "How long've I b'in sleep?"

"Not long."

Sirius grunted and raised himself up to take in his surroundings. And stared. "And this is?"

"The Ring of Brodgar."

Silence.

"You know what this looks like, right?"

Remus rolled his eyes but grinned. "I am well aware."

"Are you trying to seduce me? Innocent and pure Sirius Black?"

Remus snorted. "Right mate, that was my plan all along. To take advantage of your naiveté amongst the suggestive rocks."

They smiled at each other in silence for a moment.

"Well, at least now I'm glad were using that Muggle method of transportation." There was a clear note of mischief in Sirius voice.

"Oh really? And why is that?"

"Because we might not make it to an inn, and for what I have in mind, the motorbike simply would not be sufficient."
