Wondering why all the lights were off, Remus flicked the light switch and jumped as a shout of “Surprise!” erupted in the room.
Marlene: it’s a surprise party, silly!
Lily: well it’s not any of our birthdays, is it? Come on in!
As Remus walked further into the room, he noticed that all of the party guests were sporting the same accessory. Was everyone wearing…lipstick?
Sirius was the first to approach him, grinning cheekily before saying:
A bit stunned, Remus fumbled for words as James popped up next
Thoroughly amused (and confused) Remus laughed, eyeing Peter as he giggled shyly
Mary was next, quiet and a bit timid, she stretched up as high as she could
Lily was next, all soft smile and sparkling eyes as she pushed aside his bangs and pushed down on his shoulders so she could reach his forehead
Marlene was next, all bubbly laughter and pearly teeth
Dorcas was the last, placing her kiss right beneath Marlene’s.
Overwhelmed, Remus felt tears burn his eyes, his heart aching in a wonderfully pleasant way.
James: Oi, you alright, Moony?
Remus took a second to compose himself before saying the only thing he could to convey the fullness in his chest.
(ooc: Happy Birthday to the best wolf boy! And thank you to everyone who helped make this happen! (cast listed below!)
