that each really cherished, not the present situation
but some abstract future time when they could be
godfather and godson, once the uncomfortable present
was got over with.

OK, let me see if I understand what you're saying,
Sirius and Harry don't really like spending time with
each other, just the *idea* of being together? If I
understood you correctly, then I disagree. As I see it
they both enjoyed each others company, but they just
don't know exactly how to behave. Sirius is constantly
faced with the dilema of not knowing if HArry is Harry
or James, he's never delt with children, he's never
truly been an grown-up. Harry on the other hand has
never had a parent figure in his life, Petunia and
Vernon are just the people he lives with, he doesn't
relate to them at all. So neither one knows how to
act, they don't know if they should hug or something.
I think if they had had the time they could really
bond and become truly close.
