Death - October 9 - word count: 456 - @wolfstarmicrofic (MCD)

Sirius sat beside the werewolf’s prone body, his fingers laced tightly with Remus’s cold ones, as if holding on could stop what was coming. 

He had never felt so powerless.

Remus's breathing was shallow, each rise of his chest a slow, labored effort. His body, frail and worn down, had been fighting for so long- years of transformations, years of pain. 

His disease had finally caught up. The toll of the full moons, of the constant strain on his body, had proven too much.

And now? Now, all Sirius could do was watch.

Remus was slipping away.

Sirius clenched his jaw, his throat tight. “Moony… stay with me,” he whispered, voice shaking. “Please.”

Remus’s eyelids fluttered, his once chocolate-brown eyes dull and heavy with exhaustion as they met Sirius’s. 

“You know I can’t,” the younger man murmured, his voice raspy and thin, barely audible.

The dog animagus shook his head, his grip tightening around Remus’s hand. “You can. You have to. We- we’re supposed to have more time. We’re supposed to grow old and—”

Remus gave a weak chuckle, cutting him off. “Old?” His voice was soft, weak. “We never really were destined for that, were we?”

Sirius bit his lip hard, the metallic taste of blood filling his mouth. “I don’t care. I wanted it with you.”

Remus’s eyes closed again, his chest barely moving with each breath. The noiret leaned closer, pressing his forehead against the other’s clammy skin, tears falling freely. 

“I can’t do this without you,” the gray-eyed man whispered, his voice raw, desperate.

“You’re stronger than you think,” Remus replied softly, his voice growing fainter with each word.

Sirius let out a strangled sob, burying his face in Remus’s neck. “Not without you,” he choked. “I’m not strong enough without you.”

Remus’s breath hitched, his grip on Sirius’s hand loosening. “You… were always strong. I… never told you enough,” the dirty blonde whispered, his words disjointed, fading. “But you were always the best thing…”

Sirius shook his head, pressing his face against Remus’s hand. “No, Moony. You… you were. You always were.”

The room was too quiet now. Sirius’s own breathing sounded too loud, too harsh in the stillness. 

Remus’s breaths had slowed, each one weaker than the last. 

And then… nothing.

Sirius’s heart stopped as the silence stretched on, suffocating and cruel. He waited, desperate for the rise of Remus’s chest, for any sign of life. But there was nothing. 

Just stillness.

Sirius’s hands trembled as he cradled Remus’s limp body in his arms. 

“I love you,” he whispered, his voice shaking. “I love you so much.”

But there was no reply. No gentle teasing, no quiet reassurance. Just the silence. Just Remus, gone with Death.

And Sirius, left behind.

from my instagram lol at a goodwill

i would have included dead poets society but i haven’t watched it yet

[imsiriuslyreading]

i love fandom and i love remus lupin and his weird mates and his beautiful boyfriend but i have to say, seeing so many people who are important to me being treated so terribly here… im not entirely sure how to interact in the marauders fandom anymore.

yesterday i got called aggressive and belligerent for speaking about cultural appropriation in fandom. please, let me assure you, i tone policed myself so meticulously before replying to avoid those two words specifically. and yet, even with all my careful words, here we are! it’s almost like there’s a stereotype, ha.. ha.. ahem. but isn’t that so exhausting?

anyway. there’s just an awful lot of unkindness floating around. i see terribly mean people being hero-worshipped and the genuinely nice, passionate people getting torn to shreds. i’m not about it, babe. i just came here for the whimsy, beloved, i didn’t sign up for this😌

anyway. i’ll obviously of course finish the tcoptp podfic. and i’ll be supporting all of my creative and wonderful friends who write and draw and make edits and whatever. i just really hope something changes because this place is a gorgeous safe space and community for so many of us, it’s a real shame to see a few ruin it for the many.

remus lupin is a common whore when faced with regulus black. literally ANY sliver of skin this man is showing and remus is on his knees, down horrendously begging for attention

‘please star, please just let me touch you, i’ll make you feel so good baby, i swear’

regulus: 🧍🏻‍♂️

remus is such a knuckle kisser, he is raising sirius's scarred hands to his lips at every possible opportunity.

James sings to Regulus in Spanish and Regulus blushes so hard he feels like his head is gonna explode.
