When PoA film-Remus tells Harry his mother was there for him at a time no one else was, what do you think that was? (If it's in the books, I've forgotten. Currently on a re-read and will find out eventually)

Hello @loonyloopylupin96 💜

I don't think this is in the book but I have always loved that moment in the film. The beautiful, tender score and the performances are so moving, particularly David Thewlis' whose Remus is everything.

I have always interpreted that as Remus thinking about all the ways in which Lily was there for him during the course of their friendship. My headcanon is that Remus and Lily were always close and had a natural affinity for one another. In fact, my headcanon is that for a long time that Remus was the only Maurader that she liked. I also headcanon that she shares things with Remus that she wouldn't share with others, even James, particularly in regard to the complexity of her feelings about Snape.

I even go as far as to imagine that had many things been different, Lily could have easily have fallen for Remus in the right circumstances....and perhaps sometimes wondered what might have been...although she never says anything about this to anyone...but I'm getting side-tracked...

I headcanon that outside of the Marauders and certain teachers that Lily is the first person that learns about Remus' lycanthropy outside of this tight-knit group at Hogwarts. Remus carries so much shame and self-loathing about this, and Lily's reaction was thoughtful, considerate and compassionate. And he never forgets this.

As the First War progresses, and speculation and tension rise as to who the potential spy in the Order is, Lily vocally defends Remus against Sirius' accusations. James finds this time really difficult, and feels less able to intervene with his loyalty between his friends tested and a natural tendency to side with Sirius on things. This is something that Remus also never forgets.

Thank you for asking. It was lovely to re-visit that scene again 💜

Sirius and Lily go on a “date” in fifth year because James and Sirius got in a small argument, and Lily agreed to go to Hogsmeade with Sirius cause she thought it was funny

Remus John Lupin was not “shy” or “awkward” that boy was just done with everyone’s shit.

I'm convinced Sirius loves every state, every part of this man. Like the way he loses it while studying, how his hair is a mess, the way he is so passionate. I miss drawing them a lot, and this one was like a cathartic feeling ♡

I have that hc that Sirius never told Remus he loved him after they got together because he's that 'actions speak louder than words'-kind of person and thinks Remus knows anyhow. And Remus didn't tell him because he's too afraid to say it 'too soon' and muck it up.

And then during an argument Sirius just says it as some throwaway comment and it's far from the point he's trying to make, but it just slips out in a half sentence because it's true.

And Remus takes a step back and is like 'Hang on - you what?'

And Sirius just raises his eyebrows and says, 'Are you daft?'

The little moments - a wolfstargazer microfic - word count: 76

Remus leans over and, unable to stop himself, pushes back the dark hair that's fallen in front of Sirius' eyes.

Sirius looks up from the papers, the reports strewn across the desk he knows he should have read days ago, grey eyes capturing hazel.

Remus smiles curiously.

"Sorry," Remus says with a shrug, the smile still playing on his lips. "When we were younger I would see that happen and desperately want to reach out and do that."

Sirius feels his stomach flip a little, a strange sensation that still takes him by surprise. He feels the intensity of Remus' eyes upon him, dancing with amusement, and the intimacy of the moment makes him feel every bit the teenager again as Sirius says, his voice gruff and thick with feeling, "You should have done it, Moony."

Bad moon :")

Happy Birthday, Remus Lupin. You troubled, compassionate, smart, quietly determined, gentle but with an edge of coldness, patient, thoughtful, anxious, wise but clueless, hopelessly romantic but somehow aloof, bundle of softness with edges.

I guess after twenty plus years, I just can't shake you. I promise to treat you more warmly in my work than you treat yourself.

And I promise Sirius Black has you in his soul.
