regulus and james sitting on the edge of the astronomy tower together, their pinkies linked as they watched the eclipse, the moon passing over the sun

“that’s us,” james would say to break the silence, earning a dramatic eye roll

“you only say that because it’s good to look at,” regulus muttered, “there’s nothing practical about it.”

[fawns-angel]

sirius dragging the other marauders along to see the eclipse and no one is excited as he is

james is awestruck, peter is gobsmacked, and remus is honestly a bit underwhelmed, but he acts amazed for sirius

[fawns-angel]

remus and sirius partying as let’s dance by david bowie plays in the background, and remus would always sing louder once it reached a specific part of the song

“Under the moonlight, the serious moonlight!”

he always sung it for sirius, just to see that grin appear on his face

[fawns-angel]

sirius moving his wrist so that his silver bracelet catches the sun light, angling the reflection until it shone in remus’ eyes, earning a gentle laugh

sirius using the reflection of the moon light against his silver bracelet to catch the attention of werewolf remus, earning a harsh snarl

Mary learnt how to cry on command and starts crying whenever Remus is around and she wants chocolate. Poor Remus is so bad at comforting people he just gives her chocolate until she stops crying.

painter lily who's in a major art block since she's too full of perfectionism to finish any work + model pandora who shows lily that her art doesn't need to look 'perfect' or within what others want to see, it just needs to capture herself and her muse

Thinking about little Remus the first time werewolves are mentioned in defence against the dark arts. His shoulders are too small to fit his robes and his hands shake and his feet can’t even touch the ground as he writes about all the ways he’s a monster.

sirius loves giving remus forehead kisses because he learnt physical affection from effie, and she always gives them to him

[fawns-angel]

Remus stared through the darkness of his fingers, his hand draped over his eyes to block out the sun. The light was hot against his tanned skin as he laid in the field.

Soon, he tilted his head to face Sirius. His black haired friend sat with his arms resting over his knees, his loose tie hanging from his unbuttoned shirt. He gazed into the sky.

A gentle breeze travelled through the grass, making ripples across the fabric of Remus’ trousers and pushing his white shirt against his skin.

“Remus,” Sirius spoke after a moment, breaking the silence that surrounded them.

“Sirius.”

“You know how James has Lily, but who do we have?” He continued, looking down to his friend with a curious expression.

Remus raised an eyebrow as he looked over, “I suppose we have each other.”

“True, but we aren’t… together like they are,” Sirius spoke with a small huff, picking at the grass between his legs.

Slowly, he looked away from his friend. For a moment, he wasn’t sure how to respond.

“But you mess around a lot with others.”

“That isn’t the same.”

Remus let out a small hum, thoughtfully tapping a finger on the ground. Sirius remained silent before turning to face him, grinning so bright his white canine teeth were showing.

“Remus, if neither of us are married by the time we’re thirty, we should marry each other.”

He was immediately taken aback by the offer, and a little flustered. But Remus considered his words before finally giving a nod of agreement.

“I like that idea.”

remus and sirius laying in the grass on school grounds, staring at the sky and enjoying the silence. sirius then turns to remus, he’s grinning so bright his canine teeth are showing.

“remus, if neither of us are married by the time we’re thirty, we should marry each other.”

remus is taken aback by the offer, and a little flustered. but he considers his words before agreeing.

“i like that idea.”

sirius and remus having a portrait drawing date night, but remus can’t draw to save his life. sirius is sat opposite him with the most focused expression, his hands stained grey with pencil dust. he takes another hour before finally showing remus, who wells up in awe because sirius so perfectly captured his features, each scar and every freckle

[fawns-angel]

sirius riding his motorbike during the summer without a shirt, and remus is terrified for his safety and constantly has to scold his boyfriend for being careless. but he’d never admit how attractive sirius looks, and that he doesn’t want others seeing his boyfriend shirtless

[fawns-angel]

sirius and remus having their first kiss during a gryffindor dorm party, but denying it to everyone because they want to keep their relationship a secret (their entire house already knows)

[fawns-angel]

sirius being the quiet child who becomes a rebellious teenager, and regulus always questioning as a child but becoming quiet as he gets older

[fawns-angel]

remus and sirius sneaking out of their dorm during the night to visit the astronomy tower and smoke, unaware that regulus and james do the same but on different days, unplanned

[fawns-angel]

remus and sirius carved the first letters of their names together on the wall of a staircase in hogwarts

remus revisited this after he became a professor, trailing his fingers along the carefully carved R + S
