"Is it so bad that she's Peter's sister?" Remus Lupin asked softly.
Sirius whirled around, his black hair moving with him.
"All this time," he hissed, "she didn't say a bloody word. Not a whisper.”

Exoneration doesn't erase years lost in Azkaban. Sirius Black survives the veil and is determined to make up for lost time with Harry, but a great deal is lost, and the war against Voldemort is far from over.Meanwhile, Healer Emily Pettigrew has a lot to hide when she joins the Order of the Phoenix.

A fix-it, post-OOTP fic.
Slow-burn Sirius/ OC.
