“Virgil!”

“Shut it, Royal Pain in my Ass! I’m still getting my binder on!”

“You’re taking thirty minutes to put on your binder?”

Janus sighed quietly, watching as his boyfriend did his best to drape himself dramatically over the rail for the stairs while he whined for their third boyfriend to come down the stairs.

“It’s been like… Ten minutes, Ro,” Virgil said, finally making an appearance at the top of the stairs, rolling his eyes with a fond smile directed towards the pouting drama king.

“That is still way too long to get dressed, UV Light of my life.”

Well that was an interesting one. Janus gave Roman props for creativity instead of falling back on Black Knight again.

“Did you just call me a UV Light?” Virgil asked, grabbing a plaid button up from a doorknob and shaking it out as he began to descend the stairs.

Roman and Virgil continued to bicker, but as soon as Virgil reached the halfway point, Janus’ eyes zeroed in on his shoulder and it took him two seconds to recognize the flowers layered vibrantly under his skin.

“Love bite, what’s that?” Janus asked, speaking up to interrupt Roman’s next quip and draw everyone’s attention to Virgil’s left shoulder where a poppy and a magnolia resided.

“Vee!” Roman gasped, though instead of putting his hand to his chest in mock offense like Janus had expected, he took a step up.

“Roman I swear to God if my railing breaks-” Virgil started, though he was laughing as Roman attempted to manhandle him closer to get a closer look at the tattooed flowers.

“This is not my work! Where did you get these done, Cauldron of love? Is this why you haven’t been changing your shirts in front of us the last month?”

Virgil raised an eyebrow at Roman, and Janus cleared his throat in an attempt to cover up a laugh.

“Roman, sweetheart, did you just admit to wanting to see my abs?” Virgil teased, his laughter flaring up again when Roman froze and then promptly let go of him to get his feet properly on the ground, instead of slotted between the railing to stand on one of the steps.

“I can’t help that your night hobby makes you eye candy, Virge,” Roman mumbled.

Janus cleared his throat again, then pulled himself off of Virgil’s couch so he could wrap his arms around Roman’s waist and place his chin on his shoulder, guiding the shorter man until they were able to face Virgil while he was on the first floor of the house with them.

“Roman is right, Love bite. You are very-” he punctuated the word with a quick once over of his boyfriend and a smirk, “pleasing to the eye.”

With Virgil’s face now red, the man huffed and turned away while he returned to putting on his usual purple plaid button up.

To avoid looking at them while he calmed down his own flusteredness no doubt.

“Okay, water bottles are in the fridge, you assholes, I’m not dealing with your thirstiness today,” Virgil said, swinging the shirt around his shoulders so he could slip his arms through the sleeve.

Janus and Roman watched him for a moment, watching the way the fabric hid well toned arms and the new tattoo of the flowers.

“Darling of the knight, did you pick those flowers for the colors or the meanings?” Roman asked, leaning back against Janus, who tightened his grip on the shorter man’s waist.

Virgil hummed, flipping the collar to lay flat and starting to roll up his sleeves while he thought, glancing at the two of them after a moment.

“More colors than meanings honestly, didn’t really feel like digging through flower meaning websites for something decent and no way was I gonna ask Janus when it was supposed to be a surprise.”

Janus couldn’t help the smile that spread along his face. He didn’t necessarily need to know flower meanings to own his flower shop. Flower arranging was more what looked pretty and worked well together, but he tended to familiarize himself anyway.

“Ah, and that’s why you risked another artist’s work. I suppose I can forgive you then, and you got lucky in this sense anyway, they’re very well done- wait.”

Virgil froze, looking at Roman who was scrutinizing him.

Janus wondered if their prince noticed the smile Virgil was fighting back or not.

“You did not!” Roman protested, pulling at Janus’ arms to try and get out of his grasp.

There was a pause, Virgil’s grin broke free in a silent admission of the “treachery” that was going to Remus’ own tattoo parlor, and Janus held tighter for just a moment.

“I suggest running love, I don’t think he’ll stop until he “punishes” you with kisses,” he warned, earning a blown kiss from Virgil before he bolted towards the front door and Roman finally got free.

Janus sighed, feeling his heart swell as he thought back on how when they’d met Virgil the man was facepainting a small child and make jokes to keep her smiling while he wouldn’t give them the time of day.

Oh how far they’ve come. Janus hoped “how far” would stretch into the rest of their lives. It would certainly make living worthwhile.

How do you think family members reacted to Redmoonstar? Reg, Gideon, Hope, etc

let me spread this into sections (yes im giving you a wholeass post anon lmao, I adore this ship, they deserve my attention)

and I'm sorry this got quite this long, I talk a lot sbdmwvdjs

Sirius's family:

Regulus is entirely unbothered about Sirius being gay and in a poly relationship. he only questions how is it that two seemingly very smart people managed to loose all their braincells and, of all the people in the world, date his dumbass older brother. he's entirely unhelpful when it comes to any drama within the relationship, he's just completely unbothered by romance, so usually he'll just roll his eyes at everyone's antics. but he does support Sirius completely, even if he calls Sirius a gay loser a lot

James thinks it's brilliant, not much to it. sometimes, especially before Lily asks him on a date, he would be grumpy about it like "how is it fair that you have two boyfriends and no one wants to date me." but it's just him being a bit sour, nothing towards Sirius personally. he loves Remus like a brother, and that quickly extends towards Fabian as well. and Fabian is a Quidditch player, so he's got extra points for that

Mr and Mrs Potter, again, King and Queen of parenthood, they think it's very lovely. Remus and Fabian are two very well behaved boys with good grades, perfect spouse material, this relationship has their blessing

when it comes to Sirius's biological family, when the word spreads, Sirius does get a few nasty letters that contain a lot of lovely words and even lovelier threats, but of course, who cares? he does sometimes, but he has his chosen family to remind him this isn't important

Remus's family:

His parents have always supported him, through and through - first when he came out as trans, then as bi, and then admitted to dating Fabian and Sirius. Hope is one of the most supportive people out there, she loves Remus so much, all she wants is for him to be happy and loved, and she does her part in making sure he has a loving home. Lyall is, well,,, a bit of a typical dad, he's awkward, doesn't talk much, but he supports Remus too, he just has issues showing or saying it.

Remus's extended family is a bit more difficult. He has some allies within the family - Lyall's older sister, and some of his younger cousins, but when it comes to the most, they're really traditional. Remus is considered a slut for living with two boys, basically, and there's a lot of very colourful words thrown around about Sirius and Fabian (Remus isn't out as trans to anyone aside his parents and that one aunt, but even if he was, his family would be awful about it too). But Remus only ever has to see them around Christmas, sometimes summer, so other than that he just doesn't think about it

Fabian's family (tw for some internalised homophobia):

in my headcanons, Fabian is closeted for a really long time, to the point where none of his family even knows he's gay by the time he moves in together with Sirius and Remus. they're a very close knit family and Fabian loves and cherishes them so much, they're so important to him that he doesn't want to risk anything damaging it - and to him, that includes talking about his sexuality.

he tries very hard to be a perfect son and brother and uncle. he studies hard, he plays sports, he wants to make his family proud, and for a long time he struggles with his sexuality cause it makes him feel inferior, especially when being compared to Gideon - which happens all the time, they're twins, it's normal. and he loves Gid, of course he does, but he feels like he has to make up for being gay, because Gid is straight, he'll have a "normal" relationship and a "normal" family, and Fabian won't. one of Fabian's biggest fears is loosing his family and he sadly feels that coming out might make it happen

but for what it's worth, they figured out he might be into boys rather early in his life. They just agreed not to talk about it until he's ready. They all wouldn't mind. And while their mom is rather old and traditional, she loves Fabian so much, she'd get adjusted to Remus and Sirius. It's just a matter of Fabian gathering up the courage to come out

Remus, despite being a writer, wasn’t really the best with his words.

At least, not when it came to romance he wasn’t. Being a horror novelist did nothing in the sappy department and he tended to have more skill in sex than he did in being romantic.

And yet… Patton still loved him. He giggled at his porn jokes and powered through his horror hyperfixation with a smile and a reminder to eat and drink water while he researched. It was honestly amazing how well they could work together.

That isn’t to say they haven’t had their problems of course. When they first met, Patton was so unsettled by Remus that he outright avoided interactions with him.

It had hurt and there was a long trial of them getting closer and Remus would always remember the first time Patton laughed at one of his sexual jokes (it had been a pun, and Remus learned that puns were basically the way to his heart).

God he loved that man so much.

Enough to try and write a stupid sappy love letter  on their third anniversary because Patton was the sappiest romantic Remus had ever met, even worse than his own brother, and he wanted to make him get that bubbly smile he wore when he watched romcoms like they were the best cinematic invention to grace the screen.

Fucking hell, Patton really was too cute to handle sometimes.

But again, Remus was really bad with being romantic in the traditional sense. He didn’t like the smell of roses so he either avoided the flowers or gave Patton dead ones. Then there was the fact he was allergic to chocolate so he couldn’t even consider getting Patton that because then he’d have to go a whole day, possibly longer, without kissing his boyfriend and Remus may be strong but no man who had a similar strength in desire for affection like him could handle that.

Sometimes he just wanted Patton to smother him in kisses and make him break down into wheezy cackling that made his heart overflow with love and his cheeks hurt from smiling.

With a small groan, Remus let his head fall back against the wall, the document on his laptop only having six words on the screen because he just… wasn’t sure how to continue the stupid letter.

“Squid?” Patton called, peering over the counter cutting between the living room and the kitchen, an eyebrow lifted and his smile lopsided in his concern.

“Doing fine, Pat. Just having a hard time thinking.”

“Is this about the thing you asked Roman about the other day?”

Remus cleared his throat a little bit, stubbornly continuing to look at the ceiling so Patton couldn’t see how his face was starting to redden.

“Kinda, yeah,” he answered, tapping his fingers on the corners of his laptop where he wouldn’t risk pressing buttons.

Patton went quiet for a second, and the next thing Remus knew he was thwapped in the temple with a paper ball.

Confusion and amusement distracted Remus from his embarrassment, and he looked at Patton with his own raised eyebrow while he searched for the paper ball with one hand.

When he found it, he brought it to eye level and looked away from his boyfriend to see… a wad of paper terribly decorated like a pokeball.

“What?” he asked his confusion and amusement both increasing as he looked at his now grinning boyfriend.

“Anniversary is coming up. Figured I’d give you your first hint on what I’ll be doing,” was Patton’s answer, which he punctuated with a wink.

Oh God, Remus was so in love with this dork

“With your hint given though, I’m gonna go back to planning my class for the week. Teaching kindergarten is rough work and all that,” Patton joked, blowing a kiss Remus’ way before he hid himself back in his office.

As serious as the word “office” sounded, Patton really had it full of stim toys, children’s toys and bad art and crayons. Said it put him in the environment he needed to get stuff done.

Remus was pretty sure he also just liked playing with the toys, but he couldn’t really fault him for it. Patton was very good at having a childish imagination and Remus loved him for it.

Not the only reason why he loved him, but it was a pretty big one.

If he had to list every reason Remus chose Patton as a lifelong partner, he’d be here… a while.

Chose.

Looking back at the paper pokeball, Remus tilted his head in thought, his brother’s words from the week before coming back to him.

”Look if you want to be sappy just… pick something that reminds you of him and build a metaphor linking it to him and how much you love him. Usually what I do with Janus.”

Hmm… He could work with that.

With a glance back to the doc on his screen, he backed out of four of the six words, set the paper pokeball down on the coffee table where he could look at it between focus bursts of writing and remember just how much he loved his boyfriend, and then got to work.

“Okay Pat the Cat, please tell me you’re not leading me into a cave where I have to outsmart an axe murderer because writing about horror and surviving horror are two different things and dying on our anniversary is not something I want to do.”

Patton giggled, and Remus could tell he was rolling his eyes, even if it was playfully.

“I’m flattered that you think I could get someone to kill for me-”

“You can? I’m right here.”

“Hush you. No, we’re not even in a cave right now? What made you think cave?”

Remus paused, looking in his boyfriend’s general direction, his sight hindered by a blindfold.

“We’re doing a lot of climbing, babe.”

Patton let out an ugly snort, pulling at Remus’ hand to urge him into moving again.

“We’re not going to a cave housing an axe murderer, Remus. Actually, we’re almost there! You’re gonna have to keep close to me though, I don’t want you running into a tree.”

With a fond sigh, Remus let himself be pulled just a little bit closer to Patton and kept himself there without tripping over his boyfriend’s heels.

Not long and Patton gently guided Remus to a stop and pulled him in for a chaste kiss.

He pulled off the blindfold while their lips were locked, and by the time Remus was blinking his eyes open, he felt kind of dumb for only writing Patton a letter because now they were in a clearing big enough to have a picnic blanket on the ground and there were cardboard cutouts of pokemon hanging from the trees.

It was clear Patton put a lot of work into this, and a sappy love letter felt a little inadequate compared to this.

“Do you like it? I remembered you talking about your special interest in the series when you were little and I know sometimes you still like watching the show and you always get the newest games so I just… figured it would be cute to give you something like this after three years of being together.”

Remus didn’t say anything, going up to the Trubbish cutout and lifting it a bit to get a better look.

After a second he looked at another cutout that had a Grimer on it. And another with a Weezing.

“Squid?” Patton asked, a bit of concern in his tone that made Remus turn to face him again.

“Oh honey…” he whispered, coming closer to Remus with his hands outstretched until they were on Remus’ face, thumbs wiping away tears Remus hadn’t even realized he was crying.

With a sniffle and a weak laugh, Remus covered one of Patton’s hands with his own.

“I’m fine. I just… got overwhelmed with how much I love you. You remembered all of my favorite pokemon?”

Patton’s concerned frown turned into an adoring smile.

“Of course! Pokemon is a really easy franchise to get into. There’s so many pokemon with names that are puns! And you get really excited when you talk about it, how could I not remember that?”

Remus kind of wanted to marry this man. Which wasn’t really a thought he had before but it didn’t exactly catch him off guard either.

“All this kinda makes my gift pale in comparison. If we didn’t have a no expensive gifts rule I absolutely would have done better,” he said, thinking to some of the things Patton has gushed over to make teaching his kids so much easier and more fun.

Patton scrunched up his face in distaste, shaking his head.

“Nope! Whatever you did, I’m sure it’s just as good. No self deprecation on our anniversary, mister.”

Snorting, Remus pecked Patton’s nose.

“Alright, alright fine. I’m gonna take a guess though that that picnic basket is full of food and if so I would very much like to eat after giving you your gift.”

“Why yes it is! C’mon, let’s sit down.”

Remus pulled the envelope with his letter out of his back pocket and sat down with his boyfriend, handing it to him before opening the basket so he could ignore his nerves and look at what Patton had prepared for them.

Things were quiet. Not silent, couldn’t be with the sounds of the woods surrounding them and Remus messing with the food containers trying not to watch Patton while he read the letter.

His nerves got worse with each second Patton read and didn’t say anything.

And then finally—

“You wrote this?” Patton whispered, voice hoarse with barely held back tears that Remus could see brimming in his eyes when he looked up.

“Uh… well I mean… I know it’s not the best, pretty sure I couldn’t edit out all of the rambling if I tried, but uh. Yeah, I did.”

Patton looked away from the papers, creased from being in the envelope and fluttering a little in the slight breeze surrounding the two and making the pokemon cutouts dance in the trees.

He was beaming.

“Well, I guess having a lifelong love letter is a good reason as any to give you this,” he said, gently folding the papers and placing them under one of the containers Remus had pulled out before digging into the picnic basket and pulling out a large metal pokeball he hadn’t noticed when he was digging in there.

Remus took it when Patton held it out, giving his boyfriend a questioning look and receiving a “go on” gesture in response.

Guess he was opening it then?

Slowly, he lifted the red top of the pokeball and then nearly dropped it in his shock when he saw a silver band glint in the sunlight peeking through the trees.

“Patton, what is this?” he asked softly, not sure because he could never be sure unless he was told outright what was happening.

“A proposal,” Patton answered, wringing his hands together in a clear display of anxiety, “kind of. I had this whole speech planned but your really sweet letter made me speechless.”

Remus and Patton both snorted a little at the joke.

Taking a deep breath, Remus looked back down at the ring so he could actually gather what it looked like beyond the silver band.

It wasn’t much, the band thick and two tiny gems impressed into the metal surrounded by linked hearts. The gems were blue and green, both Patton’s and Remus’ favorite colors.

He carefully took the ring out of the pokeball, and then slid it on left his ring finger as he felt a grin take over his expression.

Patton then launched himself at Remus, taking him by surprise and making them both fall to the ground.

“Please tell me that’s a yes,” Patton whispered, his arms wrapped around Remus’ waist and his face buried in his neck.

Remus huffed, settling his right hand on the small of Patton’s back, grinning up at the sky broken up by leaves before he brought his left hand in his vision to admire the ring.

“It’s a hell fucking yeah.”

With a squeal, Patton clung tighter to Remus, and he prepared himself to just lay in the grass with his fiance for a while.

Not like he minded though. Not when they were surrounded by his favorite pokemon and able to brush his fingers through Patton’s hair.

Remus finally got one that chose him too.

Cr and sweetheart...

Although Remus doesn't necessarily like nicknames there. We'll blame freaking lo-bar for re-re. (And sunshine. And although I have a lot of words for cr remus... Sunshine not it.)

But ... Damn when Sirius calls remus glorious... 🫠

Anyways. Ofc it's me so I make it about cr. Which isn't the point. Besides sweetheart.

But I love his variations of moony in stories where he does. And bfb where Effie declared him moonbeam.

I love them. Wolfstar and their pet names

firm believer in remus using any and all pet names for sirius (sweetheart, baby, love, darling) and sirius just using every variation of moony possible (moons, moonbeam, moonshine, moony mine)
