Wolfstar Microfic: Justice
Hermione was on a roll. 
“The injustice! Wizards treat them like servants - No! Worse! Like slaves, who aren’t even paid, and make them grovel at our feet. It’s outrageous!”
Remus could feel a smile playing at the corner of his mouth, but he tried to suppress it. He glanced up at Sirius, and found that Sirius was looking at Hermione and nodding emphatically. 
Hermione reminded him so much of a young Sirius Black sometimes. 
He’d been just as passionate about standing up for those who needed help. Never house elves, in his case, but that was probably because he’d never considered that there would be an alternative for them. 
All through their Hogwarts years he had fought to be the protector of the younger students, and to stand up to bullies. He’d fought for the muggle borns too. 
“And we don’t even pay them!” Hermione went on, “They don’t ask for it because they don’t even know it’s an option!”
Harry and Ron were pointedly facing away, ignoring her as though they’d heard this rant one too many times, but Sirius was still attentively following along. 
That had been Remus for so many years. Listening when Sirius just needed to get it out, pitching in ideas when he wanted to be productive and make change. Hermione needed the support now just as much as Sirius had needed it then.
It was nice to see Sirius could be a support for her. They both needed each other in that moment: someone who gets it, and fights along with them so they don’t have to feel alone.
