Imagine. The Marauders are in fifth year and The Prank has taken place. It’s Remus Lupin’s birthday and he is turning 16. It’s a big day so they throw a party. Remus is still so angry over what happened and just as he’s about to make a speech to his friends, to thank them for making this day so special, and putting up with his shitty mood - he sees Sirius. Eyes red rimmed and perched on the stairs watching Remus. And instead of a speech, this is what he says instead.
“This is for the snakes and the people they bite. For the friends I've made; for the sleepless nights. For the warning signs I've completely ignored. There's an amount to take, reasons to take more. It's no big surprise you turned out this way. When they close their eyes and prayed you would change. And they cut your hair, and sent you away. You stopped by my house the night you escaped. With tears in my eyes, I begged you to stay. You said, "Hey man, I love you but no fucking way."
And by the time everyone works it out, Sirius is gone. A life for a life. A secret for a secret.
I love Midwest Emo. I love the Marauders. I love any opportunity I get to pull them both together.

Can’t stop thinking about dead poets society and twin size mattress.. .
How can you listen to the lines “this is for the lions living in the wiry broke down frames of my friends’ bodies” and not think of the poets
Neil being cursed forever to sleep on a twin size mattress since he never grew up
“I’m sure that we could find something for you to do onstage” is so Neil @ Todd in the deleted dock scene, or even when he’s trying to get Todd to come to dps meetings in the first place since Todd didn’t want to read so he found something for him to do instead
“Make sure you kiss your knuckles before you punch me in the face” is so glaringly chameron
“Maybe shake a tambourine or when I sing you sing harmonies” is giving Meeks and Pitts dancing on the roof imo
Knox “There’s an amount to take, reasons to take more” Overstreet
“I want to contribute to the chaos” vs “that the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse”

warnings: mentions of pregnancy, reader has children, established relationship, marriage, swearing, sierra has decided jake's middle name is michael.
notes: none!
word count: 680
pairing: jake seresin x afab!reader
the pillow thief
The first time Jake saw the godforsaken pillow was when it arrived on your doorstep from Amazon. See, such a large box naturally drew his attention, and he’d just about dragged it in the house when you came waddling down the stairs — you and the children you’d been growing for 24 weeks.
“Oh my god, it's here!” You'd said, and he'd been cursing the damn thing ever since. The problem wasn't with the pillow itself, but rather the fact that you'd rather cuddle it than your husband some nights.
Now, six weeks later, Jake was more than a little grouchy and okay, yeah, he was pouting, but he was tired of not being able to hold you close at night. Every night, you'd beat him up to your bedroom so you were already curled up with the thing and half snoring before he even had a chance to make a move. But tonight, when you'd gotten up to go to the bathroom — and declined his many offers to help — he saw his window of opportunity. In the time you were gone, he'd managed to stuff the grey polyester under your king sized bed before you'd even turned on the faucet to wash your hands.
The man could barely hide his self-satisfied grin when you re-emerged, but he definitely hadn’t prepared for the absolute panic on your face.
“Oh no,” you’d said softly. Were your eyes welling up? “Not again.”
“Baby?” Jake tested, brows knitted together in confusion. “Baby, what’s going on?”
“Lulu stole my pillow, again!” you practically wailed in response, tears already dribbling down your cheeks. “Jakey, you didn’t see her? The pillow thief. I’m gonna start closing our bedroom door at night, I can’t believe this. She’s probably already chewing on it and I’m gonna have to order another one.”
By the time you’d finished speaking, you were verging into the territory of hysterical, so Jake quickly decided the jig was up.
“Wait, wait, wait, before you exile our poor sweet girl…” He released a heavy sigh, then bent to slide his hand under the bed. He couldn’t let your dog take the fall for his theft; his conscience would never let him live it down. As soon as you realized what was going on, you gasped aloud.
“Jacob Michael Seresin!”
He’d just settled the pillow back on the bed when he glanced up to catch sight of the downright fury in your gaze. He knew you loved him, otherwise he couldn’t have convinced you to marry him and have not one, but three children with him. (The twins were a surprise, nobody on either side of either of your families had produced any. Until now.) But Jake was also fairly certain you would love to exact some sweet revenge on him right about now. He had to clean this up, and fast.
“Okay, let me explain. I just wanted…”
“This had better be a good fuckin’ explanation, Jake.”
To say he was on thin ice was putting it lightly. No, right now, he was out in the middle of a frozen lake and cracks were appearing more rapidly by the minute.
“I wasn’t going to hide it from you forever. I just… Um, maybe, sort of wanted you to, y'know, hold me instead. Pretend I'm the pillow.”
For the first time in the history of your entire relationship, Jake had absolutely no idea what your expression meant. It was fucking terrifying. As you crept closer to him, Jake found himself sliding back further on your mattress to be closer to the headboard. You were downright vicious with a pillow when you needed to be, and he was worried he’d provoked you just enough this evening.
But, instead, you threw your arms around him as tightly as you could with your still-growing children between you. The sigh you released was downright dreamy when you spoke, but the contrast between your words and the sound had Jake’s head spinning. “Oh, honey. If you try something like this again, you’ll be sleeping on the couch until the twins are toddlers.”
