Lily Asks The "highly Intelligent And Mysterious Dog Of Foresight" If There's A Chance That James Likes

"jealous regulus this" "possessive regulus that" GIVE ME JEALOUS AND POSSESSIVE JAMES PLEASE

Sirius Black is left handed

Remus first learns this when they are sitting with their hands interlocked doing work and Sirius just casually writes his essay with his left hand because his right is holding Remus’

And Remus is shocked because how has he never noticed??

And he’s not writing in his perfect Black cursive, his handwriting with his left hand is a lot messier, a lot more ‘him’

But the next day he is taking notes in class with his right hand and the perfect handwriting is back and Remus is so confused

So he finally asks Sirius about it and he tells him about how he was born a leftie

But his parents couldn’t have a defected heir, so they forced him to learn with his right hand

So now he can write pretty well with both but just defaults to the right because that’s what he’s always done

And Remus just decides at every opportunity to sit on Sirius’ right and hold his hand so he has to write with his left

Because it’s so beautiful and true and him

MARAUDERS HEADCANON #4

I see Remus as the type of person who, when angry, doesn't yell. He talks to you so calmly it's scary.

Sirius: *running towards James* RED CODE, I REPEAT, RED CODE. MOONY IS ANGRY.

James: Oh no, Godric save us.

*Door opens slowly*

Remus: Good evening gentlemen, may we speak?

Regulus doesn’t have an owl, he has a crow that sits on his shoulder and glares at everyone

incidentally, the crow loves James

Marlene: You’re going to need to socialize.

Lily: What? No, I don't wanna do that.

Mary: You're going to have a great time, you might meet some new people.

Lily, burying her face in her book: No, no, no, no!

Gender is not the same as sex. Gender is what you identify with, while sex is what Sirius Black is having with Remus Lupin tonight. Stay tuned.

Okay 6th year gryffindors learning the patronus charm and James is one of the first to get it (after Lily and Sirius, remus found an excuse to sit it out bc he didn't want to risk the class seeing a wolf and putting things together). They've already done the theory so they know the whole 'reflective of your soul' or 'changes to represent a loved one, especially if they are your happiest memory' and when they eventually manage corporeal patronuses, James' happens to be a lion.

A big, prowling, majestic lion. Most of the room are impressed and a little jealous but not too shocked by it, they automatically assume that it's the animal which most resembles him because...gryffindor lion. It doesn't get much more James potter than that. But his group are very confused. Patronuses were supposed to match animagi and they'd already managed that one, so they had silently accepted that it would be a stag. So when it isn't, they have to hide their shock. They sort of brush it off after a while because James is similar to a lion so maybe it's just something to do with strength in the memory he chose?

But James knew the second the lion looked at him that it wasn't his animal. He would always be a stag, he knew that much for sure. This was Regulus. Cor Leonis. The lion, brave, strong, and powerful but cowering behind the powerful women in his life and 'lazily' biding his time until he has no choice but to do something. More importantly, James loved him, and nobody was supposed to know. His patronus has shifted from a stag- prideful and representative of James as an individual- to a lion- a symbol of his love, power and courage. And he is the only one that knows.

Remus: I’m 90% sure this is a bad idea.

Sirius: Perfect! That’s 10% optimism. Let’s go!

💫 Regret 💫

Remus had been angry at Sirius for far to long now. There was always something that got in the middle when he wanted to forgive him.

First it was the thought that it had not been long enough and he deserved to drown in his own guilt. Because Remus could've killed Snape. Not just Snape, but James too. And that was too much to just forget. So he spent a week without speaking to him.

Then was the realization that Sirius might betray him like that again. And he couldn't accept that. So, another week without talking.

After two weeks of hating Sirius he considered it. He really did. But then he saw him laugh with James, like nothing had happened, and decided to hate him for yet another week (without noticing that Sirius hated himself for feeling happy, when thought he should be feeling awful all the time)

And then, after three weeks, here he was. In his bed after everyone had gone to sleep, thinking. Thinking how the love of his life has just a few steps away and regretting every single minute he was not with him.

The realization that Sirius never ment to hurt him, that it was a mistake, and that he spent the last three weeks hating him struck Remus so suddenly, that he lost his breath.

He got up and walked straight to the bed next to his and stopped. He knew Sirius was awake. He had hear him sob a bit, like he usually did before to sleep these days.

He opened the red curtains and whispered "Sirius?"

When the other boy saw him he answered with the only thing that he had said to Remus since the prank "I'm sorry".

The guilt in his grey eyes broke moony's heart. He got in, and hugged him, and kissed him.

They spent a long time whispering "I'm sorry"s and "it's okay" "I love you" until they fell asleep, arms wrapped around each other.

And just like that, they were okay again. What had happened in the last few weeks would always be a hard topic, but it was nothing compared to how much they loved the other. So, so much.
