Imgur link to all of the Sugoku Sugoi Guide Book translations we’ve done thus far.

Plain text below

p. 200

052: Rescue Police (leader) Recording Location: Report 4: Channel 5 HQ · Approaching A Profile: The strong, dependable leader of the Rescue Police and former professional swimmer. He faces danger and disaster on a daily basis to protect the lives of people across the galaxy. His morning routine consists of 300 sit ups before breakfast. A friend of Ulala's (as a result of seeing each other on the same site so often). Note, Secret Inputs: Information for five secret inputs in Report 4 (see 114).

053: Rescue Police (troop) Recording Location: Report 4: Channel 5 HQ · Approaching A Profile: Members of the organization that serves as both Fire and Police dept. for the entire galaxy. Thanks to the force's recent restructuring, they're far more reputable and at least 40% more dependable. Note: Pine is the organization's top Police Unit and Head Special investigator. Note, Item Received: Gives you the Big Mug item if you check his profile after clearing Report 4.

054: Space Cheerleading Captain Recording Location: Report 4: Channel 5 HQ · Cheerleader Corridor A Profile: The envy of every Space Junior and High School student. An idol in her own right. Her element moves and staccato voice that makes even the ladies blush sets her apart from other the cheerleaders. Her high kicks give her black-belt potential, so keep your distance if you value your jawbone. Note, Secret Inputs: Information for several secret inputs (24 if you rescue everyone, 16 if not) in Report 4 (see 114).

Perfect! 195 Toyota Toyota Toyota Toyota Honda Honda Honda

p. 201

055: Space Cheerleader 1: Hitomi Recording Location: Report 4: Channel 5 HQ · Cheerleader Corridor A Profile: She exploded in popular after becoming the assistant for Channel 5’s hit morning show “Go! Go! Channel 5!” However, much to her annoyance, this new role is all smiles and no cheer. Note, Secret Input: Information for a secret input in Report 4 (see 114).

056: Space Cheerleader 2: Futaba Recording Location: Report 4: Channel 5 HQ · Cheerleader Corridor A Profile: It’s a cheerleader’s job to wear a cheerful smile all the time, no matter the situation. To the untrained eye, all cheerleader smiles look alike, but subtle differences can create dozens of smiley variations. Futaba’s signature "Smile of the Sun" routine reinvigorates viewers like magic. Even the most downtrodden of fathers will want to get up and go, go! Note:

057: Space Cheerleader 3: Mimi Recording Location: Report 4: Channel 5 HQ · Cheerleader Corridor A Profile: She spends most days contemplating methods to get her legs to kick higher and her hips to swing more swiftly. She performs most of her daily practice sessions in costume. Maybe that’s why she has so many fanatics. Note:

Perfect! 196 Honda Honda Honda Honda Toyota Toyota Down

p. 202

058: Space Cheerleader 4: Yoshiko Recording Location: Report 4: Channel 5 HQ · Cheerleader Corridor A Profile:A diligent worker with high hopes that her appearance on "Go! Go! Channel 5!" will lead to a debut as an actress. She also has a bit of an attitude problem, which some fans frankly don’t care for. If you look closely, you’ll notice that her pom-poming needs some work, too. But maybe that’s part of her charm. Note, Secret Inputs: Information for a secret input in Report 4 (see 114).

059: Space Cheerleader 5: Satsuki Recording Location: Report 4: Channel 5 HQ · Cheerleader Corridor A Profile:A bright girl with excellent announcer skills. She brings smiles to all those around her, and has fans young and old. Rumor has it that she’s received offers to become a cheerleading comedienne through her agency. Note:

060: Space Cheerleader 6: Moonie Recording Location: Report 4: Channel 5 HQ · Cheerleader Corridor A Profile: Only appears on Thursday editions of “Go! Go! Channel 5!” She claims to be very busy, but in reality, she keeps her TV appearances to a min. due to an extreme case of stage fright. She adores squishy things, always fiddling with a water balloon in her hand behind the dressing room door. Note, Game Hints: Open OPTIONS and select KEY ASSIGNMENT, and assign CHU, HEY, and UP all to the same button. It'll make the game a bit easier!

063: Space Dog 3 Recording Location: World 2, Report 2: Space Park · Fountain Square B Profile: Before being adopted by goth girl Mihoko, Rug was a stray fighting dog.

065: Space Dog 5 Recording Location: World 2, Report 2: Space Park · Fountain Square B Profile: Alumi, the dangerously carefree dog.

2023 reading wrap up

sort sort sort i love to arbitrarily sort😌📚

*i decided to get even more creative this time and named the tiers after different things from the books featured on this list. see explanation below🙃 **the following series i read in full are represented only by the first book: the aurelian cycle, the radiant emperor, the winnowing flame, sorcery of thorns, monk & robot, lilywhite boys

so in 2023 my reading was heavily curated: i challenged myself to finish at least 5 series i started a long time ago, to start at least 5 new ones, to read at least 10 classics, at least 5 dark academia books, at least 10 books not in english and to re-read at least 5 books i've been meaning to re-read for some time - and i did well at all of these challenges except for the last two (missed the goal by one book in each case). it's still difficult for me to find books in languages i can read other than english which i actually want to read as well as prioritizing re-reads over new exciting books😒🤷‍♀️

but overall i would say this was a good way to organize my reading year. i like planning, i like structure, i like crossing things off different lists so completing these challenges gave me a great sense of accomplishment. but more importantly, i feel like they achieved their respective purpose: i returned to stories i fell in love with years ago and finally followed some of those journeys to their end. i discovered new fun journeys - some of them so exciting i had to finish the series immediately and some that will last me for a few more years to come. i finally feel like i trained my classics brain muscle back to its glory days and i can't express how pleasantly surprised i am to see one of those dusty tomes i read by the dozen as a teen on my top 5 again. i rediscovered my love for dark academia. i did read books in different languages and some of them ended up quite high on my tier list as well.

at the same time i had plenty of opportunities left to mood-read. boy parts, my favorite book of the year, for example wasn't a part of any challenge. the same goes for semantic error which i picked up at random during the bl manhwa revival i experienced at the end of 2023. so my top tiers ended up being a mix of different genres, the new and the old series and books, the expected and the unexpected faves.

i wasn't trying to read a certain amount of books this year but surprisingly i managed to read even more than last year (when it comes to the page count). and as for the quality, i do have a better feeling than i had in 2022 too. while i didn't manage to regain the heights of literary enjoyment from the golden era of 2019-2021, i think i'm on my way there :)

here's another curious wrap up thingy @magpiefngrl tagged me in! very representative of my reading tastes, though i must say i have only 6 unread kj charles books left and i'm starting to get concerned about what i'm going to do when i inevitably gobble them up in 2024😬

what about you guys? please tell me about your reading year! you can do a tier list (if you're a virgo) or the my year in books overview (if you regularly update your goodreads) or just write a post, if you want to. or you can also ignore me and go have a fantastic year😉🍾🎉🎆🎄

@figuringthengsout @fugitoidkry @pinkasrenzo @fandomreferencepending @counterwiddershins @magpiefngrl @sugarbabywenkexing @weirdsociology @theodoradove @doh-rae-me @venndaai @sixappleseeds @oliviermiraarmstrongs @bookish-moony

goodreads │ old yearly wrap ups 2020 2021 2022

explanation of the tier titles under the cut (if you even care)

spermaceti is a precious substance derived from the head of the sperm whale that may or may not be the whale's sperm. these are the books i absolutely loved. the vibe is that scene from moby dick where they are all on deck slicking each other with spermaceti and chanting "sperm!🙌" (that's how i remember it anyways)

toy excavator is the source of his strongest positive feelings for the main character of semantic error chu sangwoo. these are the books that i loved too but not on the spermaceti level, you know. the vibe is that scene where sangwoo realizes he's in love with jaeyoung and is like,, damn. this feels exactly like that time they gifted me a toy excavator🤔😒 (he's autistic)

skyfish is the least cool type of dragon in the aurelian cycle. the hufflepuff dragon, if you will. but it's still a dragon so these were some good books i still enjoyed😌

defekta are sentient furniture in nino cipri's sci fi novella defekt. now, in this book the concept of defekta very much serves the purpose of questioning what things we see as defective and the ethics of of how we treat them. for the purposes of this tier list however defekta are the books which range from good to great but which at the same time have some big issue that made me want to throw them at a wall. that's why the radiant emperor is ranked twice lol it has to be on my top 5 bc i'm obsessed but also ragsghhjdsgjhjbbdsd

kerinne is a made up drink the characters of mca hogarth's cozy sci fi series the dreamhealers like to drink. in 2023 i found out that i am not immune to cozy sff but one genre-specific thing i will forever remain indifferent towards is foods & beverages - i don't care about them too much irl so when they're fictional i care even less. these are the books that were just whatever🤷‍♀️

holism is art's annoying coworker we're introduced to in system collapse. a totally overrated guy, just like these books🙄

green varnish is a resin-like substance a certain type of creature in the winnowing flame excretes after consuming everything it finds in its path so that entire towns together with their residents get entombed under it forever. it's also transparent so the areas attacked by these creatures basically turn into see-through graveyards brrrr. these were The Worst books i read in 2023😬

#book tag #putting boy parts into the spermaceti tier over moby dick & cackling maniacally #ugh both goodreads and tiermaker kept crashing on me but i persevered #also if you're one of my reader followers and you want to tell me about your reading year please consider yourself tagged!

You know what, I think the reason why the Snitch is worth 150 points is rooted in siblings bullshittery.

It was originally worth 15 points, and then playing in the backyard some eldest sibling was a sore loser and said it was fifty not fifteen, which later changed to hundred and fifty when somebody was updating the official rule book. They accidentally combined the 15 and 50 thing, and everybody just went along with it.

Brought to you by a random memory of my older sis changing Monopoly rules to suit her

RAB fics I read (13-22nov)

En Avant by bluerosebouquet oh my gooood. This one is *chef kiss*. Modern AU, James is trying to cope with losing Lily (reasons unknown) and raise Harry who's like 4 with the help of his whole friend group. Then Sirius gets a word that his brother Regulus is back in town and is really upset about it and refuses to make contact when Regulus passes on his phone number. BUT SURPRISE SURPRISE REGULUS IS THE BALLET INSTRUCTOR IN THE DANCE CLASS THEY SIGNED HARRY FOR! And James just can't see the monster Sirius made Regulus to be. (We learn all that Black Brothers Backstory in like chapter 23.) And they start talking, and James catches feelings, and he battles with the guilt of betraying Lily's memory as well as betraying Sirius and it's just really interesting, I love it.

Deep Blue Waters by ThatBlueNiffler Regulus gets himself sorted to Ravenclaw to escape his mother's machinations and not join the death eaters only for Grandfather Arcturus to be like "Sup kid you're going to become a Death Eater so that you can spy on them". slowburn Jegulus (they catch feelings pretty early on tho)

Black Moon by ouzell Regulus survives the cave, makes a deal with dumbledore, becomes a spy, tells his mum to go fuck herself, gets himself kicked out, and becomes roommates with Remus Lupin. basically Oh My God They Were Roommates but in the middle of a war

Let’s make the most of this by jelfulry !!! Trans Sirius texts a wrong number and catches feelings for the dashing Moony, also he has a son named Leo because teen pregnancy, and James and Regulus are dating

Wildflower by orphan_account Remus/Regulus smut, pure, easygoing smut

A Passing Dream by Elfflame Lily walks in on Regulus blowing Remus in an abandoned classroom

career goals: tyrant by justwhatialwayswanted :D :D :D

Waters Run Deep by knight_bus_of_doom :D :D :D !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Whatever I Want (Whatever That Is) by xylodemon remus and regulus have a secret sex thing going on

When did you last check? by camichats james: we're dating / sirius: wait what? impossibel *founces away to bother regulus* / Regulus: go bother your boyfriend / Sirius: the betrayal??? / James: :D

The Long Game by lackadaisical_lizard modern high school, jock james and artist Regulus get roped in the theatre club production! ft. Remus&Regulus friendship and monstermachine Lily

Pyrrhic Victories by dollteeth It's not Regulus' fault nobody else can appreciate a good Quidditch tactics

Toujours Pur (of Heart) by Nillegible for nitilia Regulus wants to say goodbye before the cave, Sirius shows up in his animagus form

(Not) Always Brave by Nillegible why was Sirius afraid he would betray James and Lily if they made him their secret keeper? it was simple, really - he still cared for his brother.

The Serpent's Tongue by Equinesandcanines sirius gets sorted into slytherin despite his best efforst, still becomes besties with james and peter (remus is ravenclaw). Reggie is a cutie

The Marauders and the Prisoner of Azkaban by SilverShadow1 ♥

On The Theory of Spontaneous Generation by FantasticalFairyFarmer harry luna hermione ron and neville have an accident in the department of mysteries battle and are yot to the late 70s. They're managing pretty well imo. Regulus is a stuck up cutie i want to bite him

to the dark lord by justwhatialwayswanted :D :D :D

Mark My Skin so I Can Laugh at Your Little Girlfriend. by Anonymous Regulus polyjuices himself as lily and fucks her boyfriend (his crush)

Beat Me Unconscious and Tell Me It's Love by Anonymous Jegulus, Regulus wants pain to equal love so that he can feel like his mother loved him. James safewords

From a Distance by unsmokedroses James has a part time summer job in his parent's bookshop and falls head over heels for a regular customer. i love the trope subversion, usually it's regulus behind the counter!

Salt in the Wound by saintsirius jegulus had a messy break up (my bet is it was regulus' parents threatening him) and now they have to act in a movie together! neither is over their feelings.

All of You, All of Me (intertwined) by ajom28 james is an actor and after a bad break up and bad publicity and two years of break he has a chance of making it back on the movie screen. the only problem? he needs some positive PR. Regulus is in a band and they're >this close< to a world tour, but the company wants them to gain more media attention first. Their managers are friends. say hi to fake dating! but Regulus and James absolutely despise each other. Can they get along for the sake of their careers (and for Sirius)?

We are younger and older now by PandaJ Regulus died. Evan died. They wake up the same night, back at Hogwarts.

Blood and Water by euphorial_docx the last of us jegulus au

Teach Me by gaycowboysyd regulus kisses a stranger in the bar only to find out later that fghj that's a father of one of his pupils. AND his brother's best friend!

Gods Under Broken Skies by SlyRaven_394 Regulus dies in the cave and is returned to the night Sirius is leaving. And, see, he's tired of this shit. Kreacher should be allowed more arson more often, as a treat ♥

Diptych by pansysnarkinson I would strangle Gandalf-ish Dumbledore his own natal chord if I could, I can't even. I hate that man with my entire being

R&J by catastropheof79 sirius ran away from home but he needs to get the key Alphard left him to access the inheritance. Cue in James crashing parties and climbing through Regulus' window to plot a heist. IT'S A LOVE STORY BABY JUST SAY YES

Top 5 Canon Disney Couples (In My Opinion)

Feel free to have pleasant discourse about this, this was just for fun. I've never made an opinion list on Tumblr but I thought it could be fun. Also this doesn't include Pixar.

5. Milo Thatch and Kidagakash Nedakh

A little while ago if you asked me this same question, this spot would've gone to Anna and Kristoff from Frozen but I have fallen in love with Milo and Kida. I was pleasantly surprised watching Atlantis: The Lost Empire recently for the first time, I love that he stayed behind in Atlantis with her. I think they make a really cute couple. I wish we got to see more of them, to be honest.

4. Mulan and Li Shang

This one is fairly obvious, they're really sweet together. I think what really sells me on Mulan and Li Shang is that he clearly appreciates her (and even potentially has a crush on her) before he knows she's a girl. I think that's really sweet that no matter how she is, he still cares for her. Really disappointed he was cut from the live action, because they're such a good pair.

3. Aladdin and Jasmine

A Whole New World hits so different. I remember this being my first ever ship, and I didn't even know what shipping was as a kid haha. I wanted to be Aladdin so bad in this scene, it's beautiful. But also just their relationship in general is beautiful. He's trying so hard to be something he's not and she, of course, sees through it but in the end he realizes he doesn't have to try so hard because she likes him just the way he is. It's adorable. One of my favourite love stories.

2. Pepa and Félix Madrigal

You cannot tell me they don't deserve this spot. I'm upset we didn't get more of them because I love how well they work. It's clear they adore each other so much and Félix helps Pepa so much with chasing away her rain clouds, it's really sweet. What a good healthy relationship to show children, I just love the way they play off of each other and light up when they're around each other.

1. Eugene Fitzherbert and Rapunzel

I think this is the obvious number one choice but I've always been a huge fan of the love story between Eugene and Rapunzel. They're not huge fans of each other, but as the story develops, by necessity they grow to appreciate and even have feelings for each other. My favourite thing is definitely the way Eugene looks at Rapunzel, like she's the most amazing/beautiful thing in the world. He sacrifices his life so that she can live a better one without him, and I think even though he gets saved, that's a really noble thing to do. They're so adorable.

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯ ⋆✦⋆ ⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

Jeno wakes at five in the morning to the sound of wailing through the baby monitor. It’s only been around two hours since he heard the sound last, but it feels like he’s barely had any sleep at all, the way his body aches and his head slightly thrums in pain.

He feels you twisting and stretching beside him, getting ready to roll out of bed and tend to your two-week-old son.

‘Want me to go look at him?’ Jeno hums softly, offering to go and assess Sanghoon’s needs in exchange for your continued sleep.

‘I think he needs to be fed,’ you shake your head, already standing up and making your way to Sanghoon’s nursery. You return with him not even a minute later, tiny writhing bundle laying in your arms. Jeno watches while you get back into bed, sitting up straight against your pillows. Jeno places your breastfeeding pillow on your lap as you pull your shirt down, positioning Sanghoon so that he can easily latch to you.

‘There we go,’ you sigh, partly in discomfort, breath hitching when Jeno gently rubs circles onto the top of your breast, alleviating some of your pain.

‘What should we do today?’ you ask, ‘I don’t know if I can handle another day holed up in the house.’

Jeno smiles, ‘I’ll take Moonbyeol to school, then we can see if this little one’s up to maybe going on a walk? We can go for coffee or lunch.’

‘How about both?’

He laughs softly, ‘both it is.’

After around half an hour of feeding, Sanghoon finally pulls away, indicating he’s finished eating. Jeno, as per your usual routine, takes Sanghoon from you, laying him over his shoulder and patting his back. You pull your shirt back up, settling back down under the covers, and beginning to doze.

Jeno finishes burping Sanghoon, giving your shoulder a comforting squeeze and taking him back into his nursery.

‘Have a little more of a nap,’ he murmurs, ‘your sister will be up soon.’

Jeno goes back to bed himself, getting just over an hours sleep before his alarm goes off. He set it to be a mild-sounding one, as well as to play relatively quietly as to not disturb anyone else. He quickly scrolls through his notifications, answering a couple of messages, before hauling himself out of bed, making his way down the corridor to Moonbyeol’s bedroom. It’s still very dark in her bedroom, curtains drawn closed. He makes his way over to Moonbyeol’s bed, where she’s still fast asleep, deep under her star patterned duvet covers. Jeno sits on the edge of her bed, laying a gentle hand on her shoulder, and shaking her body softly.

‘Moonie,’ he sings, ‘wake up angel. Time to get ready for school.’

‘Daddy,’ she mumbles, small hands coming up to rub her eyes.

‘Good morning,’ Jeno strokes her hair gently.

‘Morning,’ she sighs.

‘What would you like for breakfast?’

‘Kimchi toast.’

‘Good choice. That’s what I want too.’

Jeno grins, kissing her cheek before flicking her lamp on and leaving the room.

The toast doesn’t take very long, you already had kimchi ready in the fridge, so he just mixes it with the cream cheese to make it a spread.

‘Where’s mummy/mommy?’ Moonbyeol has wandered down to the kitchen at the smell of ready toast.

’She’s catching up on some sleep baby,’ Jeno explains, putting down the plate in front of Moonbyeol, ‘baby brother kept her awake a lot of the night.’

‘Oh,’ she takes a bite of her toast.

The two dig in, crunching sounds echoing around the room.

Once they both finish, Jeno loads the dishes into the dishwasher, before following Moonbyeol back upstairs to her bedroom to start getting her ready to go to school.

Half an hour later, Moonbyeol’s face is washed, teeth are brushed, and school uniform is on. Jeno ties the small bow on her shirt with ease, he’s had a years practice now.

‘Ready?’

Moonbyeol nods, picking up her little backpack, the sun and moon keychains clanging together.

‘Let’s go baby.’

Moonbyeol’s school isn’t that far away from the house. Jeno purposely picked an area where his children would have access to the best schools. Moonbyeol requests her favourite songs during the drive.

‘Alright, we’re here sweetheart,’ Jeno parks the car, getting out and walking around to help Moonbyeol out. He holds her little hand, ignoring the pain of leaning down, escorting his little one into the playground.

‘Have a good day Moonie,’ he kisses her, waving goodbye as she runs off to stand with her class.

When Jeno gets home, he’s greeted by the sound of your soft singing, along with the noise of the kettle boiling.

‘Hey,’ Jeno smiles fondly at the sight of you, stood in the middle of the kitchen rocking your baby boy.

‘Oh, hi,’ you grin back, ‘Hoonie woke up, but he didn’t want to feed so I’m making some tea- do you want some coffee?’

‘Would love some,’ Jeno nods through a yawn, lack of sleep suddenly catching up to him, ‘want me to take him?’

‘Can do,’ he takes the baby from you, ‘good morning Hoonie.’

Sanghoon gurgles a little at the change, but settles quite quickly.

The caffeine wakes you both up.

‘I’ll try feeding him again,’ you sink down into the sofa cushions. Thankfully this time, he feeds. You watch TV and make small talk (mostly about Sanghoon) for around twenty minutes before he finishes eating, Jeno taking him to be burped.

‘God, I need to clean up a bit before we go out,’ you sigh, taking in your appearance through your phone camera.

‘Go take a shower, I got him,’ Jeno insists, ‘I’ll get him ready to go.’

’Thanks,’ you sigh in relief at the thought of taking a shower, you can’t even think of the last time you got the luxury.

Jeno dresses Sanghoon, it’s relatively cold outside, the weather beginning to take a dip in the mid-september. He double checks the diaper bag, making sure you have enough supplies; diapers, wipes, extra clothes, breastfeeding cover, a blanket, and all other possible necessities.

While you’re drying your hair, he plays with Sanghoon, who’s laying on his baby rocker, by lightly tickling the bottom of his feet.

You emerge from the bathroom a few minutes later, dressed and hair done, no makeup on, ready to go.

Jeno holds the heavy bag and you pop open the pram, placing Sanghoon inside and covering him with a blanket.

‘Ready to go?’ Jeno kisses your cheek.

‘Yeah, all set.’

The two of you walk along your street and towards the park, you pushing Sanghoon.

‘Are you alright? Are you sore anywhere?’ Jeno asks, being mindful of how this is the most physical activity you’d done after giving birth not even three weeks earlier.

‘A little, but it’s tolerable.’

‘Are you sure? We can sit down if you’re in pain and-‘

‘Jeno,’ you stop, resting a hand on his chest, ‘I’m fine. It’s been a couple of weeks and I’m not bleeding very much. And you know what all the midwives say, going on walks are great for recovery.’

‘If you say so,’ Jeno lifts a hand to squeeze yours, ‘let’s get to the cafe.’

The cafe is within the park, a cute little quaint building. You sit down, Jeno going to the counter and ordering your drinks and food while you push Sanghoon’s pram back and forth, keeping him settled.

Jeno places your drink down, laughing when you start sipping your drink before he’s even sat back down. Your food comes not long later, and you happily munch away on your toasted sandwich, well, as happily as you could while keeping an eye on your son. The hormones had you feeling quite anxious at times.

‘Please don’t start fussing,’ you murmur as you lift him out of the pram, patting his bottom a couple of times.

‘Does he need changed?’ Jeno asks.

‘Yeah, he’s a little wet,’ you stand up, grabbing the bag from underneath the pram and heading into the bathroom.

‘There you go Hoon, all clean,’ you button up his baby-grow, securing his little mittens and hat, ‘you’re being such a good boy today.’

Jeno grins when you come back to the table, holding Sanghoon in your arms.

‘Can I hold him?’ he asks, ‘I brought the wrap.’

‘You don’t have to ask,; you lean down, allowing Jeno to take Sanghoon from you.

‘Hi baby boy,’ Jeno smiles, kissing his little hand when he stretches, ‘want to walk with daddy?’

Sanghoon looks so warm and cosy laying against Jeno’s chest in the baby wrap, and Jeno loves having his son so close. He savours the moment, knowing all too well that he will soon grow up, and will be far too big for this.

You leave the cafe, you pushing the now empty pram while Jeno walks beside you holding Sanghoon in his arms, the rhythm of walking lulling him to sleep.

‘I’ll have to wake him when we get back,’ you sigh, ‘he’ll need to be fed again.’

‘He’s a little milk monster isn’t he,’ Jeno remarks, ‘your poor boobs.’

‘Tell me about it,’ you shake your head, ‘as much as I love feeding, it’ll be such a weight off when I can start pumping as well as normal feeding.’

‘I’ll be able to help you too,’ Jeno adds, ‘and I loved feeding Moonie.’

Jeno does the hard part for you once you get home. He gently massages Sanghoon’s tummy, which quickly rouses him from sleep. He naturally begins to cry, upset at the intrusion on his nap.

‘You can go back down once you’ve had some milk Hoonie,’ Jeno murmurs, ‘you need to eat.’

Sanghoon thankfully doesn’t refuse when he’s placed on your chest. Jeno cleans in the kitchen while Sanghoon feeds.

‘Jeno,’ you call softly when Sanghoon pulls away and stops trying to drink anymore.

Jeno burps Sanghoon, laughing at the volume. You follow him into the nursery, where you draw the blinds, Jeno silently rocking Sanghoon side to side, eventually lowering him down into his crib slowly. You brace yourself for the protesting cry, but it doesn’t come.

‘Good boy,’ Jeno whispers, the two of you quietly leaving the room and pulling the door half-closed.

‘Wanna help me with ironing?’ Jeno asks you softly, ‘you can sit on the sofa.’

His heart seizes as you look back at him with tired, sunken eyes. You look exhausted, but beautiful to him.

You nod just as he reaches his hand out, resting it on your cheek, before leaning in for a firm but gentle kiss.

‘What?’ you giggle, confused at his sudden affection.

‘I just love you.’

‘Love you too.’

You fold clothes as Jeno irons, and before you know it, it’s time to pick Moonbyeol up from school.

‘You gotta be quiet when you go inside Moonie,’ Jeno warns as the two approach the front door of your home, ‘baby brother might still be asleep.’

‘It’s only four o clock!’

‘Babies need lots of sleep Moonie,’ Jeno explains, opening the door as quietly as he could.

‘Mummy/mommy!’ Moonbyeol runs towards where you’re sitting on the sofa, coming to a stop when she notices the bundle in your arms.

‘Hi sweetheart, how was school?’ you ask her.

‘Good, I had fun,’ Moonbyeol mumbles, ‘what’s Hoonie doing?’

‘He’s drinking some milk Moonbyeol,’ you explain, ‘he needs milk to grow bigger, so he can grow up to be as big as you!’

‘Grandma says milk is good for my bones,’ Moonbyeol adds, referring to Jeno’s mother.

‘She’s right, makes them much stronger.’

Moonbyeol thinks for a moment, before pointing at your chest, ‘but why does he drink milk from there?’

‘Hey Moonie,’ Jeno sings, ‘speaking of milk, I think there may be some strawberry milk with our names on it in the fridge.’

‘Really?’ Moonbyeol gasps, bouncing on her feet before racing into the kitchen with her dad.

You just smile, ‘your daddy is getting good at distractions Hoonie.’

Once the excitement from the strawberry milk dies down, Moonbyeol joins you in the living room, curling up on the sofa beside you, full attention on the episodes of Pororo and Robocar Poli playing on the television. Sanghoon stays in his newborn swing, the repetitive rotation eventually lulling him back to sleep, after which Jeno moves him into a moses basket nearby. You’re so tired that you unintentionally also fall asleep against the arm of the sofa.

‘Daddy,’ Moonbyeol chirps up after an episode finishes.

‘Yeah Moonie?’ Jeno looks up from the now ironed washing he’s sorting into piles.

‘Can we go and play in my room?’

Jeno gives Moonbyeol a dejected smile, ‘we can’t Moonie, I have to stay here and watch Sanghoon.’

‘You always watch Sanghoon,’ Moonbyeol huffs, ‘why?’

‘Come here,’ Jeno holds his hands out, which Moonbyeol walks over to take, ‘you’re a big girl, you know that, right?’

Moonbyeol nods.

‘Well Sanghoon’s only little, he’s not as clever or strong like you, so he needs mummy/mommy and daddy around him all the time. It’s not because we don’t want to play with you or we love Hoonie more, Hoonie just needs us to do most things for him.’

‘But mummy/mommy’s here with Hoonie.’

‘Mummy/mommy’s asleep too, and mummy/mommy works really hard to look after Sanghoon, so she deserves the sleep she’s getting now.’

‘Okay,’ Moonbyeol nods, ‘it’s because I’m a big girl.’

‘Exactly!’ Jeno smiles, his eye-smile coming out, ‘come here.’

He hugs Moonbyeol tightly, ‘don’t forget that I love you, Moonie.’

‘Love you too Daddy.’

‘Now, do you want to help daddy make dinner?’

Thankfully due to the layout of your house, Jeno can see you and Sanghoon from the kitchen as he prepares the Japchae for dinner. Jeno keeps Moonbyeol busy by supervising her washing carrots and peppers, away from the heat of the hob. When the food is a few minutes away from being ready, Jeno suggests that Moonbyeol goes to wake you up.

‘Mummy/mommy,’ she shakes you gently, ‘dinner’s nearly finished.’

‘Oh,’ you murmur, eventually getting up and moving Sanghoon into the crib in his nursery where you can watch him from the monitor.

‘Smells so good,’ you mumble into Jeno’s back as you give him a back-hug, ‘thanks for letting me sleep a little.’

‘Hm, you deserved some rest,’ he nods, beginning to dish out the japchae into separate bowls for you all.

You and Jeno listen to Moonbyeol as she tells you all about the games she played at breaktime and the entire plot of the book that was read at story time.

The dishes thankfully can be put straight in the dishwasher.

‘Bath time, Moonie,’ Jeno announces, much to Moonbyeol’s delight. Jeno was always thankful to have a child who loved being bathed. She didn’t love the actual act of having her hair washed, but loved the play. Jeno quite enjoyed it too, he found it to be a great form of bonding with both of the children.

Sanghoon begins crying again while the bath is running, so you go and tend to him.

‘Mama,’ Moonbyeol drawls as she runs into your bedroom, hair slightly damp from being towel dried by Jeno.

‘Careful of mummy/mommy!’ Jeno runs in behind her, clearly struggling to keep up.

Moonbyeol doesn’t even need to be told, already coming to a stop next to your bed and peering over in curiosity.

‘You can sit next to me,’ you tell her, patting the empty space beside you. She crawls onto the bed, sidling up beside you as close as she could get. Jeno gets on the bed beside her, so that she’s sandwiched between you.

‘Is he hungry again?’ Moonbyeol asks, squirming a little when Jeno wraps an arm around her and pinches her sides lightly.

‘Yes, Sanghoon gets hungry a lot,’ you explain, ‘he eats maybe eight times a day.’

‘That’s a lot.’

‘Yeah, so he takes up a lot of mummy/mommy’s time, huh?’

‘Yeah…’ Moonbyeol pouts, ‘but daddy says its because he needs to grow up.’

‘Daddy’s right,’ you nod, sending a smile to Jeno, who is affectionately scratching Moonbyeol’s head, ‘it’s not because I don’t want to be with you, it’s just Hoonie needs me more, since you’re such a big girl.’

‘I know.’

‘We’ll do something nice this weekend when we go out with grandma and grandad,’ you promise, knowing there would likely be a prolonged period of time where Jeno’s mother would want the baby and you could give Moonbyeol some attention.

‘Okay,’ she smiles.

‘Hey Moonie, wanna hear Sanghoon burp?’ Jeno says as he notices Sanghoon pulling away.

‘Yeah,’ she grins as Jeno takes the baby from you.

Moonbyeol giggles maniacally when Sanghoon loudly burps.

‘I think it’s your bedtime, princess,’ Jeno announces as she calms down, prompting her to whine loudly.

‘Say goodnight to mama.’

Moonbyeol slumps her shoulders, but trudges over to you, throwing her arms around you and kissing your cheek.

‘Goodnight mummy/mommy, love you.’

‘I love you too Moonie. Goodnight.’

Jeno gives Sanghoon back to you before leading Moonbyeol out of your bedroom and to the bathroom so she can brush her teeth.

‘What colour do you want tonight?’ Jeno asks, referring to her nightlight that creates stars of various colours.

‘Pink,’ Moonbyeol mumbles, and so Jeno presses the button for pink stars, that instantly project onto the ceiling above.

‘Goodnight Moonie,’ Jeno leans down to kiss her forehead, ‘see you in the morning.’

‘Night daddy.’

When Jeno returns to your bedroom, you’re still laying with Sanghoon, who’s resting on your chest on his stomach, happily dozing through a milk coma.

Jeno returns to his side of the bed, eyes never leaving Sanghoon.

‘He’s so chilled,’ you lay a hand on his back, rubbing up and down gently.

‘He’s perfect,’ Jeno sighs, allowing himself to relax and settle into the mattress.

‘Mmh,’ you hum, using a spare hand to run a hand through his long black hair, ‘so are you.’

Jeno becomes shy, burying his face into the mattress, ‘that was cringey.’

‘Maybe, but it’s true,’ you smile, ‘you helped me so much with Moonie today. Just want you to know how much I appreciate you.’

‘Sometimes I feel a bit helpless when it comes to Sanghoon, I mean he’s a newborn, you’re his mother, you need each other. So I’m just trying to help you ease that burden a bit.’

‘I’ll… we’ll be okay.’

‘Always,’ he smiles, lifting his head and kissing your bare shoulder.

You yawn, stretching your legs and shoulders a little, trying to keep yourself awake. Jeno rolls over onto his side, propping himself up on his elbow.

‘Can I cuddle him?’

You grin at his innocent request, nodding and helping him with the handover.

The television plays quietly in the background as you watch them. Seeing Jeno like this always made your heart race, how attractive he looked in his white t-shirt and sweatpants, tiny baby on his chest. The sight always reminded you of how much you loved him, how much he does for your family, and how much you love what you’ve created together.

You wordlessly snuggle into his side, and Jeno throws his free arm around you, kissing your forehead.

You watch television together for around an hour or two, you falling asleep not long before Sanghoon fills his diaper (typical, Jeno thinks), and when Jeno returns, he places Sanghoon in his bed-side crib. Although he’s tired, he still deems it too early to sleep, so he scrolls through his phone, answering various work related messages and texts from members expressing their jealousy over his paternity leave. He slips out of the room after a while, taking the fastest shower he possibly can before brushing his teeth, as well as grabbing two glasses of water from the kitchen (you often wake up thirsty) and returning to bed, where you and the baby are thankfully still peacefully asleep.

‘Goodnight,’ Jeno kisses your cheek, although you don’t respond. He falls asleep with you in his arms.

Valentine’s Doom

Summary: A very oblivious young boy has caught the loving eyes of Remus Lupin, but how can one express his feelings if every time (Y/N) opens his mouth, Remus melts like a box of chocolates in the sun.

Pairing: Remus Lupin x Male Reader

Key: (Y/N)- your name, (H/C)- hair colour, (N/N)- nickname

Words: 2587

A/N: I spent way to long on this, almost a week ;-;. I hope you enjoy it!

“Remussss, please. Pretty please with a cherry on top. I promise I’ll make it up to you” (Y/N) pleaded Remus to let him copy his homework. He had completely forgotten to do his own which was mostly Sirius’s fault, keeping him up all night.

“You do realise you have to do your homework in order to graduate, right? It’s a basic skill to have.” He cocked his eyebrow, looking up at the pleading boy in front of him.

“I know, I know, Blah blah, if you don’t learn you’ll never survive in the “real” world. I know the spiel.” He rambled on, motioning a small Remus puppet with his hand mocking the tone of his friend’s warnings.

He had spent the whole night playing tag with Sirius and racing around the courtyard like the drunk children they were. Remus knew this of course, waking up every so often to look down at them being idiots from the tower.

“And yet you still go on late night joy rides with Sirius” He sighed and closed the book he was reading as he watched his friends stuff their faces with toast and eggs.

“Please, Moony.” He begged once more, pulling the sweet and innocent face he knew Remus couldn’t say no to, even adding a slight quivering lip for dramatic affect.

The shorter boy pressed his fingers against his temples trying his best to distract himself from the sweet face of his friend, but gave in.

“Fine, last time I swear to Merlin.” He repeated the same line he always said when (Y/N) or any of his friends asked. He always managed to give in too soon to the pleads.

“Thank you!” (L/N) chirped up giving Remus the warmest smile he could, taking the few pages Remus handed him then took his seat again.

“Y-You’re welcome.” He stuttered out, blushing a bit. James wiggling his eyebrows at Remus, receiving a death glare in return.

“Padfoot, get your ass here! We have t-minus 20 minutes to copy it all” He pulled Sirius’s arm to climb over the table and sit next to him. Both of them pulled out paper to start.

“Wait you didn’t-“ The flustered boy said, not being able to finish his retort before he was interrupted again.

“Thank you again, Moony. We appreciate this so much” Remus could barely get any words out after that, only being about to nod his head in response. (Y/N) did look like he appreciated his friend’s effort to help him stay in school.

James gave him a knowing smile before continuing to devour his breakfast plate while Remus just sighed looking at the two boys copying his homework.

“You lads are gonna be the death of me.” He finally said, opening up his book again and continuing to eat his own meal.

Remus always thought he fanced boys a lot more than girls, but he knew for sure when he set his eyes on (Y/N) for the first time. They were never that close, not that he had tried to get closer. The taller boy just seemed to take a liking to Sirius more than anyone else in the group, always fooling around and getting into trouble more so than himself and James.

He spent many nights awake with James, while the other two snuck out, talking about (Y/N) and how much he liked everything about him.

The day passed by quickly as they always did, pranks and studying. Waiting for the next moon adventure.

Remus sat in the dull light of the common room that evening, relaxing to the sound of the fireplace when (Y/N) burst through the door as chaotic as ever. Collapsing on the sofa next to him.

“Hi, Moony” He smiled nonchalantly, taking a peak at the book he was reading. Remus partly ignored him, giving him an acknowledging hum.

“Oh, I see you’re reading one of my books. Do you like it?” He said while bending over to read the cover. (Y/N) as dumb as he could be, enjoyed reading just as much as Remus did. A lot of the time they spent together was in the library or reading together.

“I do, rather exciting. Didn’t expect to enjoy it this much, but thank you for borrowing it to me” Remus smiled, making (Y/N) blush a little.

“I’m glad!” He said, thumping back onto the sofa. Now trying to keep up with the pace his friend was reading at. He yawned softly, he was quite exhausted from a long day of school. He was about ready to take a nap.

Laying his head lightly on his friend’s shoulder, he asked Remus to read aloud so he could rest his eyes.

As much as (Y/N) was a pain in his ass, he was a joy to be around. A light in his life unlike the light of his other friends. The heat on his face didn’t help either.

“Is the spring coming?" he said. "What is it like?" "It is the sun shining on the rain and the rain falling on the sunshine...” He spoke in a hush tone, narrating the book for (Y/N).

“I love this part, it’s so nice” (Y/N) smiled, getting comfortable for this afternoon nap. Remus stopped for a moment looking at his soft (H/C) hair and sleep ready face.

“Why did you stop? Was it me? I’ll shut up now” He said half asleep, waiting for his friend to continue the story again and that’s how they both fell asleep that late afternoon.

His book laying over his chest, his hands wrapped around the smaller boy like two cats huddled under a sun beam.

The next week was stressful with Valentine’s Day approaching and love in the air, it was all James could speak out.

“Oh Lily, a name so sweet just like the flower. A scent so alluring, oh Lily, my love, oh how can live without you. Life is , but a muggle roller coaster going up with you” He sighed, hugging the small envelope in his arms. Sirius gagged and pretended to throw up while Remus and (Y/N) laughed at his attempt at poetry.

“This is the year, boys. This is the year Lily Evans will be mine” He looked up at the great hall’s morning sky, his eyes twinkling with the love in his heart.

The other Marauders were painfully single, as was James, but the way he talked about Lily you’d think they’re already married. Lily however looked as though she would vomit at any given time James looked at her.

Tomorrow the whole hall would be filled with hearts and love potions. He was sure someone would slip one of them a potion, it happened every year, last year they had to nurse Peter to health ‘cause someone thought it would be funny if Peter fell in love McGonagall.

“Merlin, Prongs. One more word about Lily and I might curse myself” Sirius sighed and hid his own small envelope under his robe.

“How can I?” James sighed once, looking over the Lily who was sitting with her own friends pretending he didn’t exist. He rested his hand on his arm, sighing loudly and dramatically.

The day passed once again leading the five back into their common room, all tired of classes. The conversation immediately leaped to what would happen the next day.

“I bet Lily will finally accept that we are soulmates separated by a tragic past life” James said proudly once again pulling out the small heart littered envelope he had been carrying all day.

“I bet it’ll be another Valentine’s Day alone for you, dear Prongs” Sirius said in a soft and sweet voice, not mirrored with the evil little smirt of his face.

“Fine. Let’s make a bet then. All five of us, come on” James challenged the boys in the room who looked angrily at Sirius who always started these silly bets.

“Okay, Moony? Wormtail? (N/N)? You in?” Sirius chirped

“No way, last time I had to change my hair green and silver.” Remus said shaking his head profusely, Sirius looked at him and (Y/N) with his puppy dog eyes. Almost considering changing himself into a dog to guilt trip them.

“No need to convince me twice, I’m always in for a bet”

“I’m always in too” Peter chimed in, though no one was surprised as he just did whatever James asked anyway. “Fine, I’m in. What’s the bet?” Remus finally gave in after the whole group joined in, he felt as though he was gonna regret this.

“All us dashing young men need to find a date tomorrow. Anyone who’s rejected has to spend the night on the Quidditch pitch, no blankets, no clothing. Only underwear”

“Deal.” Sirius said quickly, shaking James’ hand.

“How do we always get dragged into this?” Remus sighed and let his head fall back onto the sofa, his arms over his face.

The next day was grueling work, everyone already had a date. James hadn’t asked Lily anything yet, his anxiety suddenly overcoming him, Sirius had been slapped in the face about 5 times, (Y/N) remembered he didn’t know anyone else, Peter had actually acquired a date out of some miracle and Remus was nowhere to be seen.

“Anyone see, Moony yet?” Sirius sighed, a small ice pack on his face. All the men looked completely defeated except Peter who had practically skipped over to them with the news he had gotten a date.

“Nope” (Y/N) quickly looked around the great hall as they sat for lunch, he was a little worried about him. Maybe he was brooding somewhere alone. Maybe was crying that he couldn’t find a date, maybe he was-

“I’m gonna go look for him” He stood up quickly, speed walking towards the closest boys bathroom, then the next and the next. He couldn't see him in any of the bathrooms. He was a little more worried now, well a lot more worried.

A little tired and defeated with the next bell ringing, he got to the next class first and to his surprise and relief Remus was there.

“Idiot. You scared us, we barely saw you today, what the fuck?” He came up behind him and flicked his forehead scolding him. He apologised and said he had to fetch a special package from the owlery alone. (Y/N) didn’t ask anything, just glad to see nothing bad happened.

“Any luck on a date?” He said, still waiting for the other classmates to arrive.

“Not yet, might look at real estate on the pitch” He chuckled, his eyes crinkling in his wide smile, flushing (Y/N)’s cheeks a bit.

They chatted for a short while before the last three troublemakers burst through the potion room door. Peter still has a bright smile on his face.

“Why so cheery, Wormtail?”

“He’s the only one of us with a date” James sighed loudly, still clutching his letter for Lily. He looked a lot less confident than yesterday, Peter deflating his ego even more.

The day passed and soon they were sulking on the sofa together, all now very painfully single besides Peter who was happily owling the Hufflepuff girl he had asked out. James finally had the courage to give the letter to Lily who just gave him a small smile before immediately b-lining out of potions. He was crushed, a broken shell of a man, at least that’s how he described it. Sirius had received about ten more slaps across the face. The other two had just accepted they would be huddling for warm on the pitch or so they thought.

“Here guys, we deserve it” Remus stood up suddenly grabbing the mysterious bag he was hiding under the couch.

He handed each one of the boys a small box of handmade chocolate, Remus’ specialty. They all lighted up suddenly at the prospect of chocolate except for (Y/N). Who got discreetly given a slightly bigger box and when he opened it, they were all heart shaped unlike the other threes’.

“Thanks so much, Moony! What would we do without you” (Y/N) smiled brightly, causing Remus to stiffen up a little.

The other two very quickly realised their chocolates were different than the (H/C) boy’s were. They know what was up, but (Y/N) was not in the loop.

“I’ll be back.” Remus quickly said, doing a 180 turn towards the porthole, leaving the others.

“I hope Moony’s okay. Maybe he got rejected.” He frowned looking at the closing door. He wanted to check up on him, but maybe he just wanted to be alone.

The other two in the room looked at each other, at their chocolates and back at (Y/N). They both decided it was about fucking time, if Remus wasn’t gonna do it. They would.

“You really are dense, (Y/N). He likes you, isn’t it obvious?” James said not looking up from his homework as he sat on the desk in the common room. Sirius shrugged in agreement and (Y/N) looked a little shocked.

He looked down at the box of heart shaped chocolates in front of him, everything finally clicking in his mind as he face palmed his brain.

“Oh my god. Wait really?” He questioned again, the thought had never crossed his mind that Remus would feel the same way he did. He never thought Remus was gay like he was though now that he thought about it, it was kind of obvious.

“You really didn’t know?” Sirius said while struggling to unwrap the ribbon off his own valentine chocolates. (Y/N) really felt dumb as a rock.

“Fuck.” He cussed under his breath, quickly exiting the room to find Remus.

He saw a flash of light hair belonging to the boy on his mind, he raced toward him in a fast walk. Quickly catching up and grabbing his shoulder.

“Moony! Wait! I’m sorry, I didn’t know these were those kinds of chocolates” (Y/N) said a little out of breath still clutching the box in his hands, looking at them briefly before turning to the taller boy.

“It’s fine, (N/N). I don’t think you would’ve accepted them anyway.” Remus sighed softly, what looked like a few tears running down his face which (Y/N) immediately wiped off with his finger gently.

He smiled widely at the crying boy next to him, then gave him a huge hug.

“Yes I would have! I would’ve loved getting chocolates like that.” He said brightly, gripping onto the taller boy’s neck tighter. Not wanting to let go.

“You would?” Remus sniffed quietly, barely speaking over a whisper. He breathed into the (Y/N)’s necks, smelling the sweet smell of his coconut shampoo and cologne.

“Of course! I’m sorry I’m a little oblivious sometimes. I do like you, though… a lot.” He said sheepishly, blushing into the crook of Remus’ neck.

“You do?” He questioned again, his crying stopped and he felt very warm and fuzzy. The butterflies in his stomach beating him up.

“YES! Now come eat these with me. We won the bet.” He let go of Remus and grabbed his hand, pulling him back to the common room again.

“You’ve got to be fucking kidding me” Sirius said as he saw his two friends hand in hand.

“Looks like we’re sleeping outside” James sighed, looking at the pitch from outside the window...

“So cold.”

Healing His Heart (5/?)

Young Remus Lupin/Reader

Rating: T (there’s kissing idk is that Teen+?)

Word Count: 1500

MasterList Link I AO3 Link I Wattpad Link I Tiktok Link

Summary: (y/n) is two years younger than him, a popular Slytherin, and Regulus Black's best friend. Yet he can't help but be attracted to her bewitching personality and sweet smile. Unfortunately, his er--problem makes it harder to get close to others. Despite his attempts to push her away (for her own good) she seems determined to worm her way into his life.

Notes: Thanks for reading!

Enjoy

"Where are you going?" Sirius asks from the couch. He's got his books on the coffee table, looking like he might study. Remus seriously doubts that, though.

"Going to go study in the library with (y/n)." He continues to pack up his things, standing to gauge their reaction to this.

"(y/n) asked you to study with her-- in the library? You hear that, Sirius? Match made in heaven," James teases.

"Ha ha, very funny. You've got your foot on my Charms book." James moves his foot off the book, leaning over to grab it. "Thanks." Remus takes the textbook from him, shoving it into his satchel with the rest of his books.

"Reggie's going to be pissed you've stolen his study buddy," Sirius sits up on his forearms.

"I hardly think so. Regulus was the one who told me off for ignoring her about a month ago."

Sirius's eyes widen in surprise, "My Regulus? My little brother?"

Remus nods, "Yes, the only Regulus at Hogwarts."

"I just can't believe Regulus would-- he's usually so quiet."

"Well, he made it pretty clear I was making everyone miserable, especially himself and (y/n)."

"Who knew it would be Regulus who eventually wore you down," James chuckles.

"Yeah, yeah," Remus adjusts his bag on his shoulder, "I'll see you at dinner."

"Don't have too much fun!" Sirius calls after him as he walks out of the Common Room.

***

"Remus," she comes up from behind him, books in hand. He notices she's got a quill tucked behind her ear.

"Ready to study?" he fidgets with the shoulder strap of his bag.

(y/n) smiles, "yes. I have a specific spot in mind." She guides him to a nook in the furthest part of the library. It has adequate lighting thanks to a small window nearby, and it's rather cozy due to the small size.

"What do you think?" she sets her books down on the petite table, looking up at him with hopeful eyes.

"It's private--" he feels warm on the tops of his cheeks and the back of his neck.

"It's nice, though? Regulus and I usually come back here--" Jealousy bubbles in Remus's stomach. "No need to frown, Remus," (y/n) chuckles, "it's just very peaceful back here, and Pince doesn't usually patrol as much..." She bites at her lip, looking embarrassed herself at the implication of being alone in the back of the library... together.

"I'll keep this spot in mind next time my friends won't let me study peacefully." Remus sets his book bag down by the leg of the table.

They sit down, their chairs extremely close together. Their shoulders brush against each other as they get their assignments out.

"What's yours on?" she nods towards his parchment.

Remus picks up his charms textbook, "Charms... more specifically, the Hand-Held Flame charm. How about you?"

"Potions. Slughorn told me to run wild with this assignment. Write about whatever I fancied."

Remus nods, looking at her with admiration, "you're that good, huh?"

(y/n) smiles, looking down at her quill, "It's just... interesting! I'm eons ahead of Regulus in Potions. He hates it but loves that I'm here to help him write his essays."

"Regulus and Sirius seem so different, but they might be a lot more similar than they'd like to admit," he drums his fingers thoughtfully on the table.

"Oh, yes. Definitely. They both drive me insane. I don't know why I keep agreeing to stay for the Summer with them." (y/n) flips through the pages of her Potions textbook.

"It can't be that bad--"

"No. I adore them... but if I'm going to be completely honest, for the past few summers, I didn't stay there solely for them?"

"Why then? Was there something going on at home--?"

(y/n) looks at him for a second before looking back down at her text, "No, It's embarrassing... but I always hoped you'd come around Grimmauld Place..."

His heart soars at this confession, "Me?" He knows he sounds like he absolutely can't believe anything she's saying, but part of him can't. Why would she be so invested in seeing him? Enough to miss out on seeing her own family and friends back home for the majority of her break!

"Yes, you" (y/n) giggles, "I don't know how this is so unbelievable to you!"

"I'm just-- well me. I can't imagine anyone would go through the torture of hanging around Sirius and Regulus's constant bickering for me." He raises his eyes teasingly.

(y/n) hides a giggle behind her hand, "It's not that bad. They can be bad, but eventually, it just becomes entertaining."

"That's true," Remus shakes his head, remembering the time he watched Sirius tackle Regulus over the edge of the couch over a petty argument between the brothers.

"Anyways, you always eventually came around, so it was worth it in the end."

He tries to hide his smile, "I had no idea."

"I'm completely aware of that" (y/n) places her hand delicately on his. Remus looks at her hand for a beat as it rests on his own before moving it so he can feel the softness of her palm against his own. Her fingers curl against his.

"I'm somewhat unobservant about things like this," he looks up at her, "Sirius gives me shit for it constantly."

"About-- what female attention?" His face heats up at her soft giggles.

"Yes. I don't-- well, I don't usually date, I guess."

"Why not? I know loads of girls-- well, there's quite a few that I know of who think you're cute."

Remus shakes his head, "It's not that per say. I-- It's hard to know who to trust with my... well, you know."

"Do you trust me then?" she's beaming, her shoulder bumping his softly.

"I do, but also you pretty much knew already from your observations of me--"

"You make it sound like I was intently watching you like some creep."

Remus chuckles, "how did you watch me then?"

(y/n) rolls her eyes, "I suppose like any girl like a crush. You couldn't have thought I was at the Gryffindor table for Sirius."

Remus shrugs, "a lot of people try to get close to Sirius. Girls and guys are constantly trying to sit by us, specifically because of him."

"I highly doubt everyone was there for Sirius."

"Okay, everyone with the exception of you was there for Sirius," he teases, leaning closer to her. (y/n)'s eyes dart down to his lips and then back up to his eyes.

"Yeah... only me."

Remus swallows, his own eyes roaming her face, which has inched even closer than before. "There's no way I'm letting you kiss me first this time..." He breaks the distance, feeling the smile on her lips as she climbs off her chair and onto his lap. Remus's hands find their place at her waist, immediately pulling her body impossibly close. (y/n)'s hands are warm on his cheeks as she tips his face up towards her. She kisses him greedily as his hands roam underneath her shirt moving down to rest on her butt. He tentatively squeezes the flesh, earning a moan from her, which he greedily swallows. The heat of their shared embrace makes him feel dizzy.

(y/n) pulls away slowly, her fingers continuing to stroke his cheekbone, "we've got to do that more often."

Remus nods enthusiastically, kissing her again.

***

"How was studying?" Sirius is leaning against his bed's frame. He raises his eyebrows suggestively.

"Good," Remus walks past him to hang his bag on one of the hooks by his own bed.

"Got a lot done?" James smirks. He's lying on his stomach flipping through one of the Playboys Sirius had bought last time they were all in Muggle London.

"Yup," he rifles through his bookbag, hoping they won't ask any more questions.

"Hopefully, only studying--" Sirius starts.

"Merlin-- yes. Only studying." He hates the flush on his cheeks for giving away the fact that it was not only studying he and (y/n) did in the library.

Sirius and James chuckle, sharing a look. "I honestly didn't know you had it in you, Moony. Sirius, sure. But Remus Lupin? Kissing his girlfriend in the library? Unheard of."

He rolls his eyes, "she's not my girlfriend--"

"Give him time, Prongs. He won't admit that till they're married."

Remus groans, "I haven't asked her. Who knows she could wake up tomorrow and realize what a mistake this is--"

James groans, "quit the self-loathing act, Remmy. Your girlfriend's crazy for you. Everyone can see it."

Remus schools his expression to not show how giddy those words make him feel, "You think so?"

Sirius rolls his eyes, "Gods-- yes, Remus. Do you know how many times I've had to listen to her prattle on about how nice and smart you are?"

Sirius's words make him giddy, "She's talked to you about me?"

"Didn't you just come back from a date with the girl?"

Remus grins, taking off his sweater to change into a more comfortable shirt.

Songs that make your heart beat

“Hiiii so I thought of this game where you put 5 songs that just make you feel out of this world with a short explanation- It could be your comfort songs, your favorite ones, anything that makes you feel things! and then tag your friends :))” @/spideyanakin

Here’s the original post. I’m just a little wary about long posts, so I didn’t want to reblog the chain

I was tagged by @streets-in-paradise

Thanks so much!! This is exciting because I LOVE music. Which also means that choosing just 5 songs is nearly impossible, but I’m gonna try.

1. Faith When I Fall by Kip Moore - I have to start with this one because I have really bad anxiety and I have been using Kip’s music as a coping mechanism for years and I have so much love and emotion tied up in his music that I’ve actually cried at his shows on more than one occasion. It’s impossible for me to feel bad when I listen to his music and this song specifically carries so much for me. It just says everything that I need to hear when I’m in a bad place. I’ve actually contemplated getting these lyrics tattooed on my body, that is how much this song means to me. I have so many stories about this man and I could go on for hours about what he and his music mean to me, so I need to cut myself off now. So yeah, this is an important one.

2. Gaslighter by The Chicks - This song. I love The Chicks and for them to come back after 14 years and put this out? Iconic. Everything they’ve been through, both as a group and as individual people, is in this song, is in every song on the album and it’s amazing. Whenever this song comes on, catch me turning the volume up as loud as it will go and singing along. I’ve never had a relationship like the one depicted, but this song still gets me. It makes me feel powerful as a woman and I love it.

3. Lady Like by Ingrid Andress - An anthem song for me. It makes me feel better about myself and like I can just be me. I also really love how the message is so powerful, but the music is kind of soft. It’s like a quiet anthem and I love it for that. Like I just want to sway to it and let it lift up my heart, but at the same time I want to sing it at the top of my lungs.

4. Love the Lonely Out of You by Brothers Osborne - Oh man. This is one of those songs that like completely surrounds you and seeps into your bones and you can just feel it. And it’s such a good feeling too. T.J.’s voice is so deep and soothing and you believe every word he’s singing. John’s guitar packs so much emotion and I have no idea how he does it, but I am thankful. I have to close my eyes when this song comes on because it just consumes me. This song speaks to my lonely heart.

5. Dela by Johnny Clegg - This song just makes me so happy. I just want to dance around my kitchen when it comes on. It reminds me of one of my favorite films, George of the Jungle, and the iconic bonfire dance scene. It’s my favorite scene from the movie and it fills me with such nostalgia and love. I want to dance to this song at my wedding. It’s fun and light and it makes me feel happy.

Honorable mentions: Heroes by David Bowie, Andante, Andante by ABBA, and I Will Always Love You by Dolly Parton.

Blissember- 13. BAKING

My contribution for @girlwithacrown and @kidovna 's great Blissember 2020!

Thank you for this initiative, it's great to read and see all the entries and art!

Sunrise

Remus woke up to the smell of something sweet and low, mellow tunes coming from the kitchen.

It was still quite early, the sun rays filtered gently through the window panes. He was still sore from the moon of that night but curiosity won over tiredness this time and he got out of bed. As soon as he reached the stairs he recognised the smell as chocolate and smiled.

Merlin knows what Sirius might have come up with, this time.

When he entered the kitchen, he found Sirius humming to the music, bent over the oven. The kitchen was in the state of disarray and confusion that meant Sirius cooking, which he did well, luckily.

"Pads, what-"

"Moony!- Sirius turned, oven mitts and a small cake tin in his hands- you're already up?"

"I smelt chocolate," he replied, eyeing the cake tin. Sirius smiled.

"I shoul have known... Well, I wanted to bake you a surprise."

He put down the tin and opened the ring.

It was a small chocolate cake with pears on top.

"Well, you did! After a night out I thought you would sleep till late."

"Had an adrenaline rush... And I felt creative."

Sirius smiled and pushed the plate with the cake towards him. It looked delicious.

Another scent caught Remus attention.

"Is there cinnamon in this?"

"Oh yes..."

"And...- Remus leaned closer to smell- rum?"

"Hell yeah!"

Remus' eyes lit up. Sirius smiled, then stood still. They exchanged a long, fond look. The golden light of the morning was flooding the kitchen now, the only sound was the velvety voice of the woman singing from the radio.

Sirius's smile doubled and turned into a low chuckle.

"So, was this a good surprise?" He asked.

"Very! But I hope you didn't drink too much of my rum..." Remus eyed a stained glass, next to half a cup of coffee.

"The cake asked for more"

"Yes, the cake..." Remus repeated, vaguely.

Sirius grinned and reached over the kitchen counter to pull him in a kiss. He tasted rum and chocolate. Feeling both giddy and turned on, Remus vaguely registered the woman singing about surprises and mornings and time that never passed, as Sirius rounded the counter and pushed him to sit on it, standing in the space between his legs. Remus let himself forget about the night and welcome the sunrise and the smell of cinnamon in Sirius's hair.

Sunrise Surprise Cake

Wolfstar inspired baking session for Blissember 2020

Ingredients for a 18 cm large cake tin (for larger tins, double the quantity of each ingredient.

100 gr flour

100 gr dark chocolate

70 gr butter (use margarine for dairy free version)

70 gr sugar

2 eggs

1 pear (the Kaiser kind works better but any not too ripe pear will work)

2 tbsp rum (if you don’t like the taste or don’t want alcohol, skip this or use a vial of rum flavour.)

8 gr baking powder

ground cinnamon

Put on a nice, chill playlist.

(Sirius’ tip: “Listen, everything is better with music in background. And I mean: everything. *wink*)

Cut the pear in thin slices, soak them in rum and half a teaspoon of cinnamon and leave them soak.

(Sirius’ tip: “Don’t soak the pear in the rum flavour if you chose to keep it alcohol free. Just cut the slice and sprinkle them with cinnamon.)

Melt the chocolate and the butter on very low heat, stirring until you have a smooth cream. Then let it cool down.

(Sirius’ tip: “Do not boil it, don’t burn it. Also try not to taste too much of it. I know it’s hard but you need it for the cake!”)

Beat the eggs ad the sugar until fluffy. Add the cool melted chocolate cream and stir.

(Sirius’ tip: ”The chocolate cream must be at least lukewarm, but not hot or it will cook the eggs... trust me, I know...”)

Sift in flour, then baking powder and two pinches of cinnamon. Drain the pear slices in a cup and pour the rum and cinnamon in the dough. Stir to mix it well.

(Sirius’ tip: “If you chose the alcohol free version, this is the time to add the vial of rum flavour. If you used real rum, now pour yourself a glass and Remus get away from my recipe!!!

Remus: I’ll lock the b*****y cabinet, that’s my rum!

(Sirius’ tip: “Unlock the cabinet and pour yourself a glass, you are almost done and deserve one also get your pirate boyfriend away from your notes”)

Pour the dough in a 18 cm large tin that you have previously greased.

Decorate it with the slices of pear, gently pushing them down on the dough. Do not submerge them.

Cook for 30-40 minutes in convection/fan oven at 175°C/347°F. For conventional ovens do 40 minutes at 180°C/356°F. Let it cool a bit before slicing it.

(Sirius’ tip: “Check it with a toothpick, if it comes out clean the cake is ready, otherwise, leave it 5 minutes longer and check regularly.)

ENJOY!! ✨

If you bake this, let me know how it goes!

Lonely (VII)

T.W Angst, swearing

3rd person

Sirius watched as Remus gently lead her to the shrieking shack. Remus' condition still remains unannounced to her.

The climb up the steps into the main part of the shack seemed endless in the sense of following a trios fates. James nodded to Sirius allowing room for the three.

Y/n sat on the small mattress near the window. She gazed out on to the field.

"Never knew this was here." She murmured.

"S'posed to be like that." Remus murmured back. Taking a seat next to her.

Taking her hands into his much larger ones, he held onto her, hoping it would be enough to keep her close.

"Y/n."

Y/n tore her gaze away from the window and onto his green eyes that leant towards blue.

"Y/n, I have to tell you something- well a few things, but I we'll start with the most forth coming topic," Remus looked down into his lap, then to Sirius as a source of comfort. Sirius recognizing what Remus was about to say, he took the steps to his other side and placed his hand on his shoulder comfortingly, "As you understand, hopefully of the struggle of telling close loved ones about, erm- sensitive topics, I hope that you will give me room to tell you that, I do also- have Lycanthropy."

Remus felt tears prick the corners of his eyes. Though the feeling of Sirius' comforting hold on his shoulder, he realized that Y/n had never let go of his hand. Instead she gave a gentle squeeze.

"I understand the struggle, to well, to be honest." Y/n said. Remus looked up at her, y/c/e's, that were filled with sincerity. "Theres a lot more from where my story resides, but that will be for another night."

"Another night?" Remus asked.

"Can let you go now, can't go back to those woods, thought I was going to die last year. Got the scars to prove it."

"Well, we have about 2 and a half hours before the moon reaches it's peek." Sirius told us.

"Y/n, please, I can explain why, me- Sirius- please let me explain." Remus practically begged.

"I- Remus, I trust you, but I need a practical reason, as to why one would cheat." Y/n said, in a smooth tone.

Remus shot up, dragging Sirius, "I'll be right back ok, I need to talk to Sirius." Going to the next room over, the walls were immensely thin, in some places you could see, Y/n still sitting on the bed.

"Sirius, please please please tell her." Remus hugged Sirius, silent sobs wracked his body, "please, I- I can't be without her or you."

Sirius pondered for a moment. He never meant to intentionally hurt anyone. He didn't mean for it to be cheating either. How was he supposed to tell her?

How was he supposed to tell her that he has had a crush on Remus since he first met him, then once Remus had started dating her, first it was the pain of rejection, though he hadn't been rejected. But the pain of not knowing who he was in love with.

"All right, Rem, I'll tell her, ok? How am I supposed to though? I was sleeping with the love of her life, and it was cheating."

"I know pads but please, please try." Remus sobbed into Sirius' chest.

"Come, now Remus, we don't have much time left." Remus pulled himself from the floor, leaning on Sirius. His legs like jello, the pain of his bones starting to move around under his skin. "I've got you Rem."

As they pulled around the corner, Y/n seemed to have vanished. Her spot was vacant, worry riddled both of the boys, fearing the worst, that she decided none of the reasons was valid enough. When suddenly a sharp bark snapped them out of their thoughts.

Sirius stumbled back, grabbed the collar of Remus' sweater, yanking his back, by the throat.

The large wolf cocked it's head, it's large fluffy tail, swishing excitedly behind its.

"Sirius, let me go." Remus tried to get Sirius' death grip off of his sweater collar.

"No! how'd a wolf get into here? James! JaMeS!" Sirius continued to grip onto Remus in fear. Remus, tore his sweater off of his body, leaving his white button up under shirt. "RemUS! No!"

Remus slowly crawled towards the wolf, "Sirius, look at her eyes."

Sirius paused, looking into the wolves eyes, noticing the human definition of them, they large y/c/e's that were so contrasting, amongst the stark brown and grey of the wolves face. "Y/n?"

Again a sharp bark, and a kiss on Remus' face.

"what are you? Not a lycanthrope?" She slowly approached Sirius, her head hung low. "Got somethin' to tell you princess."

Sirius pet her on the top of her head, smoothing the fluff between her ears. A thud of her wolf-ish bum hitting the creaky floor boards, and her head resting on Sirius' chest.

"there's only one reason, I was sleeping with Remus, and when I'm telling you I'm not lying to you, I hope that you'd believe me," a soft wine came from her, "I love you, I love Remus, I can't be with out the either of you."

Warm tears ran down Sirius' face hitting the top of her head and ears, causing small wet spots. Y/n looked up, and licked Sirius' tears away. Remus came and sat on the opposite side of Y/n, and leaned down, kissing the spot between Y/n's eyes, then doing the same on Sirius' forehead.

"I love both of you Y/n, I hope you can do the same to us." Remus murmured to Y/n.

She suddenly sat up, leaving a sloppy kiss on both of their faces, before dashing out. Remus pulled Sirius' head into his chest, letting the man cry it out.

A thumping of steps, the click of nails against the wooden floor.

"5 minutes until full moon!" James told the two men on the floor. "Ah Twigs! you're a lot cuter than you told me."

James leaned down patting the wolf on the head.

"Twigs?" Remus asked, still holding Sirius.

"Yea, kinda' like me, Prongs, and Padfoot, apparently, when she first shifted, she ate a bunch of twigs, then puked them up." James laughed at the end part, and elicited a playful whine from Twigs.

Remus started to feel the effects of the full moon, his bones started to break and move. Leaning back against the wall, he lightly griped Sirius' forearm. "Sirius, time for Pads, don't wanna hurt you."

Sirius moved back, and allowed his Animagus from to be present. A dark black dog sitting now in Sirius' place. However Twigs still towered above Padfoot, by three or four inches.

Twigs ambled over to Remus carefully, her tail starting to come between her legs, ears up right and pointed forward. She was empathetic towards, the boy who was experiencing his monthly ailment, that caused heart wrenching pain to those who had to watch.

Trying to prove what comfort she could, to the love of her life was already starting to face the excruciating symptoms.

Remus felt as his bones began to move, and break, some moving so extensively, that his skin had to stretch thin. Pained screams filled the small area of the shrieking shack. Remus tore his shirt off, the first time in two years, that Y/n or Twigs had seen him shirtless.

Yet Sirius, had the ever flowing luxury of Remus's trust. Y/n wanted to love on Remus, show him how much she truly loved him. Yet a few flicks of Sirius' wand and he had Remus around. his. Fucking. finger.

An incontrollable snarl, emitted from Twigs' chest. Her lips and facial muscles curling up above her teeth, and ears pinned back against her head. A couple of blinks cleared Y/n's clouded head, a yawn, displaying a release of stress. Then promptly walking out of the room to sit in the next room over.

The Full moons light peeked through the window, then the light hit Twigs' eyes, causing a deep, emotion fill howl, and both rooms to still.

Remus sensed the pain in the Howl she let out in the next room over, he knew she maintained her Human conscious, she must have realized something.

Feeling the final effects of the transformation, Remus, prayed for this to be over soon.

Sirius watched on as his lover, cried out in pain, his legs, fingers, and arms elongating, changing Remus into Moony.

Then Moony sat up howling up at the ceiling, and walked over, nuzzling Padfoot, and looking up to the now taller, Prongs, soon joined, by a small palmed sized, Wormtail, but still missing Twigs.

Where is Twigs?

MARAUDERS

HEADCANON:

Heya peeps. I got bored and I'm in a marauder-ing mood, so, here you go! I hope you enjoy.

SIRIUS BLACK:

Fluent in French, but it's his first language so he often gets words muddled when he speaks English - he has to look to Moony too often for help.

He didn't eat ice cream until 3rd year - on their first weekend at Honeydukes.

Sirius regretted to inform the boys that he was lactose intolerant, he claimed: 'how was i supposed to know?', to which Prongs replied: 'ice CREAM, Pads, CREAM!'

In 5th year, he started buying two Gryffindor Quidditch jumpers every term, because he knew how often Moony wore his old ones on the night after full moons.

He can't cook for shit - do not let that man near a kitchen, damnit. He set the fridge on fire the first time he went to Peter's house!

He has glow-in-the-dark stars stuck to the top of his bed in the dorm.

He LOVES fluffy stuff. He has fluffy socks, blankets, pillows, ect.

Stabbed himself in the eye with Andromeda's eyeliner pencil - it's why he refuses to wear the stuff.

Didn't know any normal swears until 1st year - when he met Remus Lupin.

Has and will dare Peter to eat a whole pot of gravy from the kitchens.

When Remus became a Prefect, he would sneak into the bathroom to take bubble baths.

Asked Dumbledore out on a date on a dare, the man winked and said: 'maybe next time.'

Has broken a total of four (4) pairs of James' glasses.

The Potter's absolutely adore him

He broke his ankle trying to climb a tree in 6th year because Wormtail was stuck and too scared to come down.

Buried his mother's favourite china plate in the garden before he ran away

His first tattoo was a moon that was enchanted to show the phases of each night - so he would never forget, no matter how far he went

Despite his Animagi form being a dog - his Patronus was a wolf; which got a few giggles from James and Peter

HE'S A BLUSHER

REMUS LUPIN:

He is, without a shadow of a doubt, Welsh. But he stopped speaking infront of the boys when James repeatedly asked him to say the names of some towns.

He only speaks Welsh when he gets angry, and this happens at least once every 2 months.

He spent the first 3 weeks of first year wondering why they used such stupid words for passwords

For ages 5 to 9, he wanted to be a Hufflepuff because he adores Newt Scamander.

By the way, he would risk his life for Newt Scamander

He introduced the boys to Queen, Star Wars and Elton John

He can't actually eat chocolate, so his comfort food is macaroni & cheese OR garlic bread, but never together

Fucking hates jigsaws - he nearly killed Peter when he suggested they do one.

He knows full well that Sirius abuses his privileges as prefects - but he never bothers to say anything

He taught James and Sirius how to swear, well it was more like they picked it up from him.

He has a radar for when the other 3 do stupid shit without him

He didn't know the boys were going to become animagi

He found out when he saw Padfoot on his bed, fast asleep. He thought: 'who's dog is this?', before he noticed a little scar on his snout - exactly the same to one Sirius had on his nose.

The first time the boys were with him on the full moon, was the first time it wasn't mentally painful.

He's actually terrible at Scrabble - but don't tell James.

C A N D L E S

Taught himself how to braid hair for Lily and Sirius.

He's scared shirtless of snakes - it's why he screamed in first year when he saw Slytherin decorations.

Minerva McGonagall is his role model.

Has a scar on his bum from when Prongs had to shove him with his antlers to calm him down on a full moon. Sirius still laughs at them.

JAMES POTTER:

He knows how to make daisy chains, and he loves to do them in summer

He can't swim properly - the best you get out of him is a funky dive and a pathetic float

Cried when Darth Vader revealed himself to be Luke Skywalker's dad.

Dyed his hair purple once in 7th year - didn't change it until Lily pushed him into the Great Lake, threatening to make him do extra Head Boy meetings

He enjoys cleaning, he finds it destressing

You will not catch this boy dead cleaning their dorm though - that's been a lost cause since 2nd year

Makes Peter a cake evwry year for his birthday, without fail

He can't bake for shit, but Peter still eats his birthday cakes without complaint

He has a mild addiction to Disney films. By mild, i mean he can sing every song from Cinderella without thinking twice

He has gone through approximately 42 pairs of glasses from 1st to 7th year.

Accidentally sat on McGonagall when she was in cat form

His antlers grow from his head when he gets angry - this is extremely difficult to hide during Quidditch

Up until 5th year, it took him over an hour to get from the Great Hall to the Gryffindor Common Room.

Still calls it 'Remus' furry little problem' without fail

When he first held Nymphadora - he nearly dropped her on her head. Andy hasn't let him touch her since

An Ace at Transfiguration, much to Minerva's liking.

He's bloody awful at CoMC and DADA

Joined Flitwick's choir in 1st year, quit in 3rd

He doesn't actually like Butterbear.

PETER PETTIGREW:

Sleep talks, has done since he was 6.

Oddly silent, and he earned himself the nickname 'Creeping Jesus', in 4th year.

He was ginger when he was a baby, but it faded into blonde

He hasn't got freckles, but he has cute moles dotted around

Didn't like being a rat animagi until he found out he could sneak into the kitchens at night to eat

The first time he called James a horrible name, 'asshole' for example, James cried for 2 hours before Peter apologised

Had braces from 2nd year till 5th

He kept getting sweets stuck in between them

He never gets a hangover - no matter how drunk he gets

He has awful memory. He couldn't remember his last name until McGonagall called it out in class

Hates beaches because of the sand and the seagulls

The only one in the group that hasn't passe dout on a roller-coaster - much to Sirius' dismay

He used baby shampoo until he was 13

ABSOLUTELY HATES SOCKS

His favourite film is, and always will be, The Parent Trap

He was once chased down the hall in rat form by mrs norris in 6th year.

“Moon's Church Founded by Korean CIA Chief as Political Tool, Panel Says“

The headline with the word “Founded” is misleading. Sun Myung Moon started a small cult, which performed pikareum sex rituals to womb cleanse, in Pyongyang in the summer of 1946. The KCIA did not found that. The key quote from the article is “Kim Chong-Pil organized the Uniﬁcation Church while he was director of the ROK (Republic of Korea) Central Intelligence Agency, and has been using the church, which has a membership of 27,000, as a political tool.”

The Fraser Committee did a great job. See:

Moon’s Church Founded by Korean CIA Chief as Political Tool, Panel Says

From News Services The Rev. Sun Myung Moon’s Unification Church was founded by a director of the Korean Central Intelligence Agency, Kim Chong-Pil, as a political tool in 1961, according to intelligence reports released by a House investigating subcommittee. The reports also indicate that South Korean President Park Chung Hee personally directed an overt and covert lobbying effort targeted at Congress and American officials. Collectively, the documents reinforced reports that senior officials of the Nixon administration were aware of the lobbying effort. Rep. Donald M. Fraser, D-Minn., chairman of the investigating panel, contended that “initiative for action pursuant to the intelligence reports was sporadic, half-hearted and inconclusive, with the result that Korean activities, which were both improper and illegal, continued to expand and gain momentum for some five years.” THE DOCUMENTS were among a sheaf of intelligence summaries, diplomatic cables, governmental memorandums and other documents made public by the subcommittee as it opened four days of hearings on Korean efforts to influence American policy. The first mention of the Unification Church, which has denied any connection with the Korean government, came in a United States Central Intelligence Agency report dated Feb. 26, 1963, stating from an undisclosed source that, “Kim Chong-Pil organized the Uniﬁcation Church while he was director of the ROK (Republic of Korea) Central Intelligence Agency, and has been using the church, which has a membership of 27,000, as a political tool.” Kim was among the inner core of Army officers who led the coup that brought Park to power in 1961. He organized the KCIA shortly after, and later headed the ruling party and was prime minister. He is now out of favor with Park. In 1970, South Korean President Park and his aides set up a board in Seoul to coordinate U.S. lobbying by Tong-sun Park and others, according to the intelligence summaries. That plan was developed at a series of meetings in the South Korean president’s Blue House in Seoul after he rejected a plan to put Tong-sun Park in charge of all U.S. lobbying. Fraser gave no details on whether the South Korean president approved, or even knew that the lobbying would include giving money to more than two dozen congressmen. There has been speculation that U.S. intelligence got its information by bugging the presidential mansion in Seoul. But documents released by Fraser’s subcommittee show at least one of the CIA’s sources was “a casual informant.” On the Unification Church, an intelligence report said: “Members of the church are actively engaged in increasing membership in farming villages. The church apparently has considerable money, because it pays influential people in the villages a substantial sum for joining the church.” FOLLOWERS OF MOON in the United States became controversial for their lobbying in the early 1970s, allegedly in favor of South Korea, and for their efforts, reportedly at the direction of Seoul, to prevent the impeachment of President Nixon. The reports further said that the Korean Cultural and Freedom Foundation, founded in 1965, was a fore-runner to a Unification Church branch in the United States. The subcommittee released many other documents tracing the founding and expansion of the foundation — which eventually claimed former Presidents Harry S. Truman and Dwight D. Eisenhower as honorary chairmen — into a KCIA front for fund-raising and lobbying efforts.

chapter 5

As the following week passed, Remus and Sirius found themselves dancing around each other: walking on eggshells. They hadn’t really spoken since that fateful day in the science lab and neither wanted to push the other into anything. The tawny-haired boy doubted that his love was requited, without looking hard enough to see if that was true.

After confiding in the girls about what was said (with Sirius’s permission of course) the first thing they did was laugh confidently, unbelieving that he hadn’t just confessed his crush. Lily’s not any better, Remus thought. She knows that James likes her and she still won’t tell him. He’d covered his ears childishly to block out her out as Dorcas tried to pry his hands away.

“Remus Orpheus Lupin.” Marlene announced as they sat in Privet Fields, wading her fingers through the grass as they onlooked James and Sirius, racing each other to the top of a climbing frame, Peter and Mary cheering them on.

“That’s not my name and you know it.”

Her brows furrowed, “You are the most disastrous bisexual I have ever met, and I’m dating Dorcas.”

The girl in question punched Marlene lightly in the shoulder, pushing her short, brunette hair out of her face, smirking to herself. “You’re the one who was practically throwing yourself at me every excuse you got.”

“Was not.”

Dorcas scoffed. “So you don’t remember mysteriously tripping so that I could catch you every single day? Asking McGonagall to change the seating plan because Kingsley was ‘distracting your learning’?”

“He was! I’m not that hopeless.” Marlene harrumphed.

Dorcas’s smirk shifted to a genuine smile as she kissed her cheek. “I never said you were, babe.”

Remus also smiled, watching them adoringly. He’d seen them both make fools of themselves before they’d finally gotten together. They were the most deserving people of happiness, and happiness they had found together.

His attention was brought away by the harsh shouts of Mary, who’d gotten to the top of the frame before James and Sirius even after giving them a head start. “Fuck yeah!”

Sirius was tangled in the rope, limbs flailing. “There are children present, Miss MacDonald.”

“He’s right, we can’t have you corrupting our ickle Peter, can we?” James said from where he was helping to free Sirius.

Lily rolled her eyes from beside Remus, not quite committing to it, “I think he was corrupted the day he met those two. If anything, Mary saved him.”

Remus agreed, “We all were, Lils. My teachers used to love me, I’d just sit in the back of the class quietly and actually do work.” That wasn’t entirely true, but no one had to know. “I had a clean record, no detentions or anything.”

“Maybe it’s a good thing then, I couldn’t even imagine how boring that’d be.” Marlene started.

“How boring what would be?” Sirius was now untangled and stalking towards where Remus and the girls were situated on the field, wilting daisies surrounding them as their coats sat beneath them and the damp ground. His hair was tied up in a manbun, a few curls not quite reaching and framing his face messily, lighter from the summer sun.

Lily answered him, “Remus was telling us all about his shameful past as a teacher’s pet.”

He gave her a scandalized look as Sirius said, “Our Moony? He would never. I specifically remember him pulling a prank and blaming me for it, that’s actually how we met.”

The girls erupted, laughing and shouting praise, clasping him on the back. He saw a mother give them a pointed look from across the field, tearing her eyes away from two boys aimlessly kicking a football back and forth. It had been in year 7, one of the first days of high school, when he’d taken one look at Sirius Black and something inside of him just knew.

And he hadn’t made any progress since.

“Sirius, mate, how is that even possible?”

“It’s not that big of a deal, but I’m not exactly complaining.”

Sirius was stood in the middle of the pool changing rooms, 6:00 am, wearing nothing but a speedo and a swimming cap. Morning practices were always the worst, especially when he’d tossed and turned all night with no real sleep. In front of him was Frank Longbottom, teammate and friend, dressed in a similar state to him.

“Your time went down 5 seconds, for fucks sake! It’s incredible,” Frank gushed. “No one here could do that if they tried.”

“Bet Coach still makes me work harder, no amount of improvement in the world could make him like me.” Sirius and his coach had never gotten along, considering he had a great relationship with the Black family, and it often worked out against his favour.

Frank gave him a sympathetic nod, tightening his own cap before padding out of the room to find the rest of their team. Temper rising, Sirius messily shoved his bag into a locker and followed his friend.

I have more important things to worry about than a stupid coach.

But it would be nice to be liked.

A few moments later water flowed fast all around him, his mind only focused on the movements his limbs. Every trouble faded out of his head as he kicked, hands dragging almost lazily as it was second nature to him. This was where he could feel safe. This is where the highs and lows of life couldn’t reach him, his muscles hard at work. The wall was right in front of him, getting closer by the minute as he stretched out his arm to touch it and when he did he felt a surge of happiness shoot up his spine and through his blood.

He ripped his goggles off excitedly to realise he was the first one to finish warmup, eyes scanning the board to see the set they’d be doing. It looked difficult, and would definitely take a lot out of him, but that was exactly what he needed. No time for overthinking. So exhaustingly yet refreshingly, he swam and dived and turned and flipped until his head felt fuzzy and his legs ached.

Coach shouted at them to get out of the pool and line up against the wall, voice calmer than usual. It was almost startling, how Fabian and Gideon could fuck about and not get given push-ups, how Frank could lean over and whisper to Sirius without being caught.

“Bet he’s announcing the new Captain,” He explained. “He’d have to be stupid to consider anyone but you.”

Sirius laughed dryly, “Don’t get your hopes up, Frank. Alice has been kissing his arse for weeks, I barely stand a chance.”

“But you’re the best swimmer here!” Frank exclaimed.

“If you don’t shut up now I won’t stand a chance at all. I won’t even have legs to stand on.”

His eyes went quickly to the towering height and corkscrew hair of the man speaking, broad shoulders filling out the team t-shirt. His face was angry and intimidating, which seemed to help the team win often enough for him to continue. “I expect a better swim than that, especially coming off your wins last night. I didn’t come here to watch mediocre swimmers.”

There was a general hum of acknowledgement, “All of you have the potential for excellence, but I expect very few of you to come into your own.” He paced up and down the line menacingly. “Selecting a Captain did not come easy to me, considering that the job takes responsibility and maturity.”

Gideon smirked back over at him as if to say ‘can’t be you then’ as their Coach continued, “The person I have selected may not demonstrate these things 100 percent of the time, but gala after gala has proved their worth.” Sirius now shifted in anticipation. “So, without further ado, your Team Captain for the rest of this year is…”

I was unfocused last week.

I didn’t finish that set one time.

My fly needs work.

There’s no way he’ll make me Captain.

“…Sirius Black.”

Frank and some others jumped on him immediately and he had to wince as they shouted right down his ears. He couldn’t believe what he was hearing but was elated nonetheless as the rowdy praise evaporated into polite applause and surprisingly authentic smiles. It came to an end, not without a warning from their coach and swimmers filed out orderly. Before Sirius could follow he heard a stern voice call him back.

“I need to talk to you, Sirius.” His Coach said.

He turned back around and folded his arms complyingly, prompting the man to continue. “You did well last night, I was quite impressed actually.”

“Thank you, I appreciate it,” Sirius stumbled, taken aback by the sincerity.

“You’re not exactly the most easy to work with, nor the most responsible.” Don’t hold back with the compliments, Sirius thought internally. “However I know a good swimmer when I see one, and I’ve seen you with our junior swimmers, they love you.”

Sirius choked back a smile, “I love helping them, ‘s nice to give back, you know?”

A t-shirt was placed gently in his hands, the same one that his Coach was wearing but in a smaller size. The team logo shone from where it was embedded on the right and his title was sown neatly below it. He was brought out of his trance by a contrastingly harsh voice, “But one slip up and that t-shirt goes to Alice, mark my words.”

He couldn’t help but groan. “I understand.”

“You can leave now, Sirius.”

“Happily.”

Remus peered over his book for about the thousandth time that hour, watching James obnoxiously flirt with Lily as she rolled her eyes, contrasting the way her cheeks pinked. This interaction had been going on ever since they’d gotten to school just half an hour before, and it was becoming quite exhausting to watch. He took a look around the practically empty library before shifting his focus back to his book.

“Lily, you have no idea what you’re missing out on! I have a lot to offer.” James sang.

“And what would that be exactly?” She said sharply.

He hesitated for a moment, ruffling his hair to make it even more messy before saying, “A lot! I don’t even know where to begin.”

“Of course you don’t,” Lily sighed. “Better luck next time.”

James huffed, his lips forming a pout as he slumped back into his chair. Remus braved a look at the scene and so his eyes lifted to meet Lily’s fierce blue ones, pleading and disturbed. He wondered what could possibly be going on in her head when even though she liked him she still rejected his advances.

James perked up suddenly, “Sirius, mate, can you tell Lily about everything I have to offer? How much she’s missing out on?”

Sure enough, Sirius was walking gracefully into the quiet of the library, hair still damp and clinging to his ears from what must have been a morning practice. His hoodie was half unzipped, giving a peak of a tight graphic t-shirt beneath it. “I’m afraid there’s not much to say in that department, Prongs,” He laughed.

“Fuck off, I’ve got class.” This only made him laugh louder as James continued to sulk even when leaving the room. He really is a child.

Sirius sat himself in a chair right next to Remus, his hair almost brushing the other’s nape when he leaned over his shoulder to assess the book in his hands. With a slow turn of his head, the two met face to face with longing and shyness. Through the corner of his eye Remus could see Lily stand and call out to James, flicking out her phone, but he couldn’t bring himself out of the weighted moment.

Sirius leaned forward carefully, until he was close enough to reach up and run a hand through Remus’s curls.

“I really do like the haircut,” his voice was down to a low whisper. “Not that I didn’t like it before, I just… like it more now, I guess.”

Remus’s breathing hitched as the hand that was carding through his hair moved down to his cheek, his thumb brushing over his cheekbone lightly. Well, it’s now or never.

“Is there anything else you want to get off your chest? He asked, matching the other’s whisper.

“Yeah, there is actually.”

“Me too,” The moment he sounded the last syllable Sirius’s other hand came to rest on the other side of his face. It was only just occurring to him what was happening. Sirius’s hands are on my face. Sirius likes me. Oh shit.

“Can I kiss you now?” The boy in front of him questioned, way too casually from what it was, thumbs tracing circles on his flushed skin. Quickly and simply, he nodded until he felt soft lips on his own.

He thought fireworks must be going off somewhere outside because holy shit. Sirius’s lips were warm against his own, insistent yet gentle, and certainly better than he could have ever imagined. He realised he wasn’t really doing much so he wrapped his arms around the dark-haired boy’s waist and brought him as close as possible to his body. A thought ran through his mind like broken a train, that he could never be close enough to Sirius. Remus felt a tongue run over his bottom lip as the kiss deepened, both boys letting out sounds of contentment. He never wants to stop kissing this boy; He wants to die kissing this boy.

It did stop eventually, but not without both of them savouring it as best they could. As they parted, Remus kept his eyes closed for a few moments, desperately trying to hold onto the feeling. When he finally did open them, his eyelashes fluttered in a way that Sirius thought to be simply criminal, and so he leaned back in to kiss him once again. Remus tasted like chocolate and mint, a taste he tried to memorise in the next few minutes they spent with their lips almost molded together.

This time they only stopped as distant hollers got increasingly louder, hollers that they soon figured belonged to their friends. Dorcas was holding her phone up, obviously recording the new couple’s (couple? Is that what they were now?) reaction. Mary handed Lily some change, Remus noting that they must have been betting on this. Fucking Lily.

He buried his face in the crook of Sirius’s neck out of embarrassment, realising that maybe that was something he could do now. Maybe. This was only reassured by strong arms folding around his shoulders, hands bracketing his head to keep him there.

“As much as I appreciate the well wishes, we’d much prefer if you could kindly fuck off, thank you.” Sirius addressed the audience of smug faces around them, ending it with a kiss to Remus’s head.

“I knew you like him! I told you, didn’t I Lily, I told you!” James jumped up and down like an excited puppy, quite an unusual sight to behold.

“You like me? I hadn’t noticed.” Remus replied dryly, his voice dripping in his signature sarcasm as a surge of confidence swept through him.

“Moony, I think you’ll find that I do like you. A lot actually, and I would really like to kiss you again.” Sirius said in a much softer voice than he was used to hearing from the boy.

Remus smiled back at him, “I think that can be arranged,” Before leaning back up into a now familiar kiss.

“Prongs, you didn’t even know he was gay, how could you possibly know they liked each other?” Marlene shouted.

“Oh please, I’m not blind.”

For the first time in a while, Remus could say that he was truly happy.
