“You keep breaking yourself down for them, but you know they wouldn’t do the same.” + from fenrir greyback
GREYBACK KNOWS MORE THAN HOW TO PRESS AT REMUS’ BUTTONS . indeed it seems that the older of the two can get to the very heart of the matter . very much he could pin point with abundant accuracy the very thing that remus was so aware of . so aware he was of how much he had done for others . but , what fenrir was not aware of was how much others had done for remus . in TRUTH , this would not work , this feeling of guilt would not be used against him , for remus knew that he was not burdened by others ---- rather , he BURDENED others .
though there is a part of him , so DEEP down that knows . knows how others use him && discard him . use his body && his mind for their own benefit . their own needs . && he hates it . hates it more than he can truly put it into words .
they will never , && never have CAREED for him . not in the way he cared for them . he knows this so deeply it breaks him down inside && twists at him like a knife .
fenrir knows how to get under his skin .
&& he hates it . oh he hates it .
tired eyes graze up && over , but he does not say ANYTHING , unsure && slightly aware that anything he did say could be taken out of context && used AGAINST him . which he was in no mood for . instead , remus let his fingers curl around themselves && the tips touch the palm of his hands . he considers then , leans back , letting himself exhale .
“ that’s rather a broad ASSUMPTION , ” he says quietly . // @magicrisen
