i’m not gonna write it but i still wanna share this germ of an idea
soulmate au
everyone is marked from birth
not with anything so explicit as a full name, though
you are born with a tattoo that is in some way symbolic of your other half
Remus Lupin was born with two small stars drawn in bold, black lines, just behind his left ear
a pretty great tattoo if you ask him, the kind he’d have liked even if it weren’t representative of the future love of his life
when he meets Regulus Black, he thinks this obviously must be his soulmate
is he a bit of a pretentious snob? yeah.
is he too much of a mama’s boy? yeah……
but his name is Regulus Arcturus Black! Literally Star Star Black!
this HAS to be his soulmate
Regulus is very handsome, and clever, and he has a good heart, even if he doesn’t always show it
and then Remus meets Sirius
Sirius Orion Black. Star Constellation Black.
nobody told him that the Blacks were into family theme naming
Sirius who is also very handsome, and clever, and good-hearted
who is hilarious, and passionate
who instantly clicks with Remus
who is the exact perfect height to tilt his head down and mouth at the tattooed skin behind Remus’ ear and that has to count for something, right?
“hi! this is Peter, leave a message after the beep! BEEP! just joking, haha, it’s coming riiiiiiight—”
“I’M DATING THE WRONG BROTHER! CALL ME BACK ASAP!!!! this is Remus”
I want this so much
I want it too *pouting*
i will venmo anyone that wants to write this fic
