Can you talk a little about Remus’ intelligence? Recently I’ve felt it’s been severely downplayed in fandom as a response to fanon depicting Sirius as “the dumb one” and Remus as “the smart one” in a wolfstar context. While obviously Sirius is extremely intelligent that doesn’t mean Remus has to be dumb in contrast? I also think they just have different types of intelligence, and I strongly believe that basing their intellect off of their achievements in school is limiting (also people don’t take into account that Remus was sick every month for at least 3 days, even if he was matched perfectly in intelligence with Sirius he’d still be doing worse in school). What’s your take on this my balanced remus lover friend?
I don't think Remus is a 'genius', like James and Sirius might be. But he's a bloody capable wizard - hard-earned, not talent.
The one flashback we get of him as a kid, we see him focusing hard on his OWL's, despite an upcoming Full Moon. He has his own methods for revision - when he asks Sirius if he would help him study, Sirius can't fathom why he should bother. Sirius doesn't need to revise or study - but Remus is good at it.
You're damn right that doesn't mean he is stupid compared to Sirius. There's nothing stupid about forming methods to help himself learn. Sirius and James are natural talents - Remus is a nerd.
By adulthood his work ethic has paid off: He has effortless confidence in his charms and conjuring - doing most of it without incantation. He's kind of a badass: He conjured fire and a non-corporeal Patronus without incantation - while exhausted and in the presence of a dementor. He could duel Lucius Malfoy, battled death eaters in the astronomy tower, dueled while flying and supporting an injured man on his broom - and disarmed multiple people in a row with enough accuracy to catch their wands. (tbf they were children)
Remus is a natural at teaching. First day on the job: he handles a room full of kids like he's been at it for years, even those with difficulties who need extra care and encouragement. He is patient with Harry learning to cast a Patronus, explaining things clearly to him - changing his explanation as Harry's needs change. This shows a deep understanding of both the material he is teaching... and what it is like to learn. Knowing how to struggle, how to adapt, how to learn, the validity of different perspectives - that's good wisdom.
His greatest strength is his Social Intelligence. Witty, astute, cunning, sly, persuasive… Sirius isn't socially inept but he is so honest and blunt he can come across as kicking the door down - rather than Remus' picking the lock and making it seem like a natural innocent behaviour. Does that make sense...? It was the entirety of his role in PoA: A murderer on the loose after Harry's blood - and yet through all the mysterious absences, sketchy evasiveness, superficial closeness with Harry, slightly slap-dash teaching methods and blatant distrust from Snape (who had been proven trustworthy - Harry just thought he was an arse)… Remus Lupin manages to charm his students, getting to know them without any of them knowing anything about him. He has Harry hanging off his every word, despite obvious apprehension to engage with him about his parents or needs. He effortlessly keeps Harry's trust even when he blatantly, skillfully lies in-front of him - and TO him! For his own gain!!! The scene of the Marauders Map is a brazen display of how quickly he can manipulate his way out of a complex situation. Even when he is with a murderer and they all know he will turn into a werewolf soon - he commands emotional focus. Ron is injured, a Murderer is present, they are supposed to be investigating a rat with haste... yet most of the time they are discussing HIM and why HE is 'not so scary, please don't hate me' in a long-winded fashion.
Only Snape seems immune. So he bullies him to shut him up. Without SEEMING like a bully. The kids think he is great, the way he can control the uncontrollable - Snape and Peeves.
Remus slips in and everyone is so taken with him they never notice the lock being picked. Their perception of him is on a tight leash. A magician’s sleight of hand and a silver tongue. Lockheart WISHES he could do this.
Remus is practical and practiced. He has the grit of someone who has fought for his life with both his wand and his tongue. He has lived a life of misdirection, gaslighting and manipulation - always subtle, always present. He reads others better than himself and moves through society with quiet ease, slipping in unnoticed and slipping out just as easily. No wonder he works as a spy.
He’s a top-class wizard - held back only by circumstance. Balancing his core needs, his interests and his health with no support network and poverty…? yeesh. In another life he may have been able to focus his efforts on a passion, rather than on topics that aid his survival in a harsh world.
As he is, though: he’s a formidable duelist and skilled charmer (magically and socially) - a survivalist, both in the wild and within society. An outcast who never seems like one. A wolf in sheep's clothing.
That's my take, as 'balanced remus lover friend' :^) Thanks - I needed to sit down and yap about Remus for a bit, had a shitty month
remus lupin quote of the day
day 26
an actual canon quote who would have thought
The thing I find so interesting about Remus is the character development we know that he’s had over the years
The Remus who, in Order of the Phoenix, can tell Sirius to sit down and stop and at least acts like they’re on equal footing, is not the same Remus as he is during the Marauders Era.
That Remus, by his own admission, didn’t have “the nerve” to tell Sirius to stop, or tell him when he’s out of order. His “you might” he said darkly” when Sirius wishes it was a full moon (something incredibly painful for Remus, so he can say it but Sirius shouldn’t wish it upon him bcs he finds it fun like c’mon dude) is likely as close as he gets. Instead it was likely his silence that did the heavy lifting of “occasionally making them feel ashamed”
Sirius even agrees with this. Coupled with the things we know Sirius did do to Remus without Remus telling him no (I.e the prank), that’s rough. Especially if Sirius knows that Remus is too chicken shit to stop him or tell him he’s out of order, that’s nasty.
But Remus grows. After all, not being able to tell his friends no or stand up to them didn’t save him the first time, they still mistrusted him no matter what. So now he can tell Sirius when he thinks he’s being a dick — still diplomatically, but he’s now the referee in his arguments with Molly rather than a simple bystander. He has a backbone when it comes to Sirius that he didn’t have as a teenager/first war
Idk I love this development for him and I kinda don’t see it very often these days
Dumpp . Again
“i’m so art blocked” in the SAME tweet as the CUTEST remus you have ever drawn is insane!!! god he’s adorable
AHHHH THANK YOUUU<333 he’s my baba I feel like I could draw remus with my left foot and it’d still turn out somewhat cute just bc it’s him
The villain gaped at the screen mortified as they saw themselves get absolutely thrashed by the hero. The hero's fist bashed their nose in the video and it almost felt like they were in that moment once again. What's worse is that godforsaken little shit had uploaded the video on YouTube.
After another two minutes and forty seven seconds of torture, the footage finally cutoff to hero sitting in a basement like space. "So that's it for today guys. Special thanks to villain for being a special guest on our channel. I'll see you in my next video. Peace out."
Peace? The hero will not be having peace for some time now.
Alex Claremont-Diaz during a mock trial in law school, calling the judge-professor “Your Highness” instead of Your Honor
Alex: Objection, Your Highness!
*class erupts in laughter as Alex grows crimson at what he’s just said*
Professor: Was that a Freudian slip? Is objecting His Highness something you do often?
*more laughter, but this time Alex is laughing too*
sometimes I remember that Cersei and Tyrion are chasing and earning the Masculinity that is denied to them (Cersei because she was born a woman, Tyrion because he was born disabled) by becoming increasingly more Violent, exactly like the Manly Men who abused them (Tywin, Robert), and i feel like I need a cigarette. and I don't even smoke
and then I remember Jaime was already pretty much there, in the perfect Male Spot his siblings are currently chasing, by giving his life to become the epitome of Manliness (a knight who perpetuates violence upon violence), and then he met someone who was not violent, actually not a man at all, and yet more of a knight he could ever dream to be
Forget romantic Jegulus. I want Regulus to treat James with absolute, unwavering disdain every time he tries to bond with him (probably by talking about Sirius for 3 hours). We’re talking brother-in-law from hell.
sirius black core elements (to me):
- smart, capable, self-sustained, magically gifted
- demisexual
- extremely attractive, tall and muscular without having to work for it, been admired and complimented everywhere he went since he was a kid but simply DGAF
- doesn’t mean he doesn’t take advantage of it, because he definitely does. it’s just that he’s not overly invested in his looks and considers his appearance to be circumstantial
- long hair, tattoos, leather jacket, shit tons of accessories – at first because it pissed off his parents, later because it’s comfortable and easy and there’s no need to fix what’s not broken
- huge fucking NERD about things he likes: automobiles, history, arithmancy, transfiguration. stays up late to read about them, can rattle off trivial facts, up to date with latest developments in the field etc.
- things he DGAF about: sports (yes, including Quitditch), dating, arts (he would go to any exhibition/event/performance Remus or James or even Peter wants to check out and would genuinely enjoy it but it’s just not his own thing)
- bold and rash, prone to emotional decisions, most often barging head first into things without considering consequences. including but not limited to: telling Snape about the Whomping Willow (no I will not call it a prank I don’t see how it’s a prank at all), running away from home, chasing after Peter on Halloween 1981
- complicated & conflicted feelings towards Regulus (I firmly believe that the moment he became friends/brothers with James there is no going back for the Black brothers and the way he’s forever feeling love/hate/guilt/envy for Regulus with no chance AND no desire for resolution is a HUGE part of who he is as a person)
