“That sounds…like the best idea I’ve heard all day.”

“Alright then, come on,” she grinned. Lily walked into the little kitchen, pouring them each a drink, before tossing him a smoke. “We’ll go sit outside for a while, it’s a nice night” she suggested. It was a perfect night to sit in the grass and stargaze for a while. She handed him his drink, and then decided to take the bottle out with them instead.

Remus caught the small object with ease, putting it to his lips and lighting it in one fluid, practiced motion. “I think you just know me too well.” He said, laughing as smoke escaped from his lungs. Just one drag and his body was already relaxing. The cup was to his lips in an instant too, once it was in his hand. Alcohol in one hand and nicotine in the other, he followed Lily out the door.

The voice is what caught Remus’ attention. It had been so long since he had heard it, but it still rang through his body like it had been yesterday. His eyes searched the bar for the familiar dark hair before making his way to her. And only when he had nearly ran to her side and tapped on her shoulder did he realise he had no idea what to say. “Uh. Hi there, Gwen. Long time no see.”

He should have just slapped her. That would have been the kinder thing to do. Yet, here she was instead - facing the wide, kind eyes of Remus Lupin amongst the framed paintings… and somehow that was worse than the aforementioned alternative. Gwendolyn was banking on never seeing Remus again. Things like this - art, museums, galleries - were supposed to help with that. Her grip on her pamphlet tightened. 

She excused herself from present company before offering a thin lipped smile to her long lost friend of sorts. Yet she knew she couldn’t hold up the cold facade for long. He always managed to pick his way through.  

“Hey. Fancy running into you here. Didn’t think you still bothered going to these.”

Remus had been to this museum tough to memorize the permanent displays and all of the normal contents. Needless to say, he was hardly surprised while inside the walls of this building. But low and behold, the only thing that could have surprised him. Standing right there. In arms reach.

it had been…how many year since he had seen Gwen at this point? It had been since her graduation day. When he had given her a hug and she had given him the promise to write. Well, a few letters between the two of them and she had disappeared. He had tried to write to her a couple of times after that - like when he had seen her brother’s name pop up in the papers - but got no reply. People say it’s a small world, but Remus had to disagree with that statement. And her statement as well.

Remus couldn’t help the turn of the corner of his mouth upwards as she spoke. Fancy seeing you here. It was more irony than anything, to run into her in the last museum she had kidnapped him away to. Where they had spent hours going from painting to painting saying nothing before going back to the school and staring at the stars in silence still until the sun chased them all away. It had been a peaceful night. One of his favorite memories from school.

“They’re one of my favorite places now. Quiet and peaceful. A place I can actually let my guard down, despite everything going on out there.” His smile turned sad as he spoke.

“Yes, yes. I’m back. Though I’d be lying if I said I was excited about it.”

{Ooh}

And this ain’t gon’ make no sense no sense but I’ll say

Your lips they taste like June Your eyes are a rocket to the moon Those legs gon’ put me in a tomb Praise God when you hit me with the Ooh Hit me with the Ooh Praise God when you hit me with the Ooh Praise God, praise God, go, praise God When you hit me with the Ooh Drunk off your kiss, tastes like absinthe King size spaceship Hips crash landed

{Moonrise Kingdom}

I hope you learn to fall in love again I hope you find a love in your best friend  Just know my heart is yours until its end I want you now forever Ill repent  Baby, it’s a wild world for you 

{Lips}

Giving up Everything belongs in it’s place Moving on Picking up and finding new space

{Alaska}

Cut my hair so I could rock back and forth Without thinking of you Learned to talk and say Whatever I wanted to And I walked off you And I walked off an old me Oh me oh my I thought it was a dream So it seemed And now, breathe deep I’m inhaling You and I, there’s air in between Leave me be I’m exhaling You and I, there’s air in between

{Carter & Cash}

Oh, how I let you fall from under me I walked away, never looking back To chase, the remnants of a fleeting dream That couldn’t wait, just wouldn’t wait for me Heartbeat like it never could stop Tell my vision and my mind we’d be giving you up this time, no Running wild, trying to set myself free Lost sight of what was standing right in front of me This time And all the while the world It hit me with the speed of sound And don’t you worry girl I’m always going to be around

Part of her had always dreaded leaving Hogwarts. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to grow up and enjoy the world, it was the loss of security that scared her. Her friends weren’t a room away anymore, and with the war raging on Lily couldn’t help but feel a harsh sense of displacement. 

Muggle London was one of her favourite places to be, especially at night. She loved sitting up on the rooftops, watching the people go past, with the city lights shining down. There was calmness in the noise, and it helped the red head unwind.

A cigarette hung from her lips, as her legs dangled over the building, her arms resting on the guarding bars. The sound of footsteps brought her out of her thoughts. She turned slightly to view the person, a small smile forming as she recognized her friend. 

“Want one?” she offered, holding out her pack.

Graduation was the light at the end of the tunnel for most; finally done with being stuck in school and able to live their life, finally. It was quite the opposite for Remus. The asylum he had been given for those 7 years was gone for good. The constant support of his friends, dissipated like smoke. That stupid old rickety house that had been shelter for him once a month for 7 whole years was a thing of the past. 

Graduation had come and gone and left Remus feeling nothing but cold and empty. And when that’s how one feels, one needs some fire. And Remus knew just where to get that from. 

A quick knock at the address she had given him told him Lily was not at home. And there were a few places he knew her frequent and it took only a couple loud cracks until he saw some feet dangling off the edge of a building. With a grin, he scaled the fire escape- ignoring the barking of a dog on the fourth floor- and made his way to the top. His motions were smooth as he walked across the rooftop and plucked a cigarette from the carton. 

“Quite a view.” He said after a long moment.

Brief Biography:

Remus John Lupin is the son of Lyall and Hope Lupin and since he was five, he has been afflicted with lycanthropy- in other words, he’s a werewolf. His entire life has been colored by his condition from his upbringing to his friendships to his self image. Every moment of his life is centered around that one night each month when he stops being human. Hogwarts was a haven. There was Albus Dumbledore and his acceptance (albeit conditional) but more importantly there was James, Sirius, Peter and even Lily and their love (in all its unconditional glory). Hogwarts offered an education which Remus values and freedom and that Remus had craved since he was first bitten when he was five years old. Unfortunately for Remus, Hogwarts could not last forever. With graduation came a startling halt to most of what he had known for the past 7 years. The life he has come to know and love has ended and the unknown is upon him.
