In my humble opinion, a young rjl's favorite 3 flirtation tactics are as follows:

Wincing and stretching out his shoulders until Sirius offers to give him a shoulder massage

Writing silently about Sirius in his journal (it's a diary) alone in the corner of the common room, stealing looks at Sirius until he looks back, and then looking away so quickly he gets whiplash

And finally—his boldest, and most effective tactic—looking up at Sirius and batting his big brown eyes at him

Please share other Remus Lupin flirtation tactics in the tags !!

Stuff from my last reel

Context: Sirius had a dream where he made out with Mary but doesn't remember how it ended. Sirius did indeed make out with someone but it wasn't with Mary. Panic ensues

james who was so afraid to call sirius his BEST friend because his entire life, he has had best friends but would always get so embarrassed because hed always only be the friend. like people would go to him if there was nobody else to go to, or if they needed help with something.

then one day sirius calls james his best friend and james lowkey tears up and sirius is so happy because this boy who makes him so happy was so excited to be his best friend. sirius'!!! sirius who has always been told that nobody would ever want to be close to him because he is reckless and he destroys everything.

so from then on, sirius and james are always like my BEST friend when referring to each other.

(and what if i say eventually the lines blur and that 'best' turns into 'boy' and now with the wide grins, a dusting of pink rests on their cheeks. what if, what if.)

james: so would you like to be an official marauder, moony!?

remus: marauder...? like a thief-

sirius: with moony's brain we'd be unstoppable!!!

remus: i mean, yeah, like i've stolen things before-

peter: remus is a perfect marauder!!

remus: didn't know you guys were so cool with stealing-

james: marauders! marauders! marauders!

remus: ... you guys do know what that word means, right??

While horcrux hunting moonwater goes to a trip to Greece.

Regulus never had alcohol before (for reasons) and they go to an island who was famous for their wines to find a bassilisk.

Remus can't drink alcohol because I said so.

Whatever, when Regulus got drunk he started to complain and whine about how Remus was so hot despite his lanky legs and not more than avarage face (he throws shade too and remus is like let's go) and he was trying to do better but he thirst after his brother's friend every waking moment and he touches him everywhere and Remus tries so hard not to do anything.

When Regulus got sober he acted like he didn't remember it.

"It worked!!!" "I TOLD YOU it would work sirius. Why would you even question me and my humongous brain?!"

Sirius Black who doesn’t know what to do with his inheritance, so he gets deep into smart home technology.

Everything in his flat gets automated. His coffee maks itself, his fridge orders groceries, his washing machine always chooses the right cycle. He doesn’t need to do anything - weather and news displayed on the bathroom mirror before he can ask, the shower always perfect temperature when he steps under the spray.

It’s boring. He didn’t realise how much time he’d left over once all his life admin is done for him.

He’d get rid of the whole system if not for the Computer’s voice. He goes pathetic for it.

It’s soothing, when it speaks back to him, strangely human. Good at cheering him up when he’s a bit down and reminding him to eat or call his friends or take a walk when he gets too deep into a project.

Sirius falls half in love with a machine.

What he doesn’t know:

Remus Lupin has medical debt. Lots of medical debt. The company he works for has covered the expenses so he’s got a ten year iron-clad i breakable contract with them. Can’t quit his job until it’s paid off. Not unless he wants to be sued for everything he’s worth and he’s worth nothing.

He watches this man every second. Sleeps only when he sleeps. Has alarms set that respond to changes in his breathing, in his heart rate, so he’s sure to wake up before Sirius does. Can’t miss him asking for lights or for coffee or for his shower to be turned on.

Can’t make a mistake. If the company loses a client, it gets added onto Remus’ debt.

The cameras are everywhere, and the man doesn’t know. Remus is as good as his slave, and the man doesn’t know. Thinks it’s a computer he’s telling about his life and his problems and his joys, annoyances, days.

Remus falls half in love with him, then quite completely.

It’s risky, when he starts dropping hints. Tiny ones. Absolutely not to be noticed by anyone else, but he knows Sirius. Sirius will.

And Sirius does.

Barty: So lemme get this straight

Barty: You make ten meals, you’re not a cook

Regulus: I guess

Barty: You paint twenty paintings, you’re not an artist

Regulus: Well—

Barty: But you kill ONE GUY—
