We all know Sirius loves stupid puns and he’ll annoy everyone with them every chance he gets, making everyone utterly terrified of the word “serious” and anything dog-related, so yes, we’re all tired of such puns, but not Sirius. Never Sirius.
I would sell my soul
Guys let’s be real. Remus Lupin was so not the mother hen of the marauders- that bitch would skip meals to study and refuse help after full moons and laugh at his friends when their pranks would backfire.
The real mother hen was James “Remus stop picking at that scar you’re going to make it bleed, Sirius you’re not too punk for breakfast sit down and eat your eggs, Peter as much as I approve of your chess skills you need to stop and do your Charms homework” Potter.
Imagine once Sirius runs away to live with the Potters, Sirius is doing something ridiculous and James and Mrs. Potter walk in at the same time, and scold him at the same time in the same tone of voice, and all the color just drains out of James’ face and he goes to his room and won’t come out for supper because he can still hear Sirius and Mrs. Potter roaring with laughter and he knows he’ll never live this down because oh god he’s become his mother.
My humble request is moony reading a book and simultaneously ignoring and giving padfoot the middle finger
I have this really important Headcanon where Remus gets to Hogwarts and has no idea how being around people works, since he’s been isolated from people outside his parents practically his whole life. So you can imagine this scrawny little boy with brown curls and skin pale as paper, with this massive red cardigan over his robes and muddy boots with a pink and green bandaid over the bridge of his nose, of course he has no idea how to tie a tie, so he wears it in a bow instead.
So this goofball walks into his very first potions class and his hand shoots up at the very first question, and he stands up and rambles on for about ten minutes about the pros and cons of using mandrake leaves. (having already read through all of the text books,) and you can be sure he isn’t shy with swear words because by age 11 Remus has read every book in the house and has a pretty large vocabulary, and when he’s done he sits down and Sirius black and James potter stand up and applaud him because goddamn, this nerd just said “fucking rare as shit” to a teacher, who is this. All while slughorn has never looked more constipated in his life.
posts like this are why i still log on to this website tbh
Remus Lupin: Sirius you did what.
Inspired by this post and others by lotstradamus
Sirius having to read that Regulus was killed in the Daily Prophet, because no-one from his family thought to tell him. After all the years of vitriol between the two, Remus is actually surprised by the amount of emotion Sirius shows: he cries for hours and he's distant for days afterwards and one night he whispers that he knows it's wrong to love someone so much when they've done so wrong, but he can't stop. Remus doesn't understand until he sees Sirius laughing at him from the front page.
i regret everything
Here’s something to ruin your entire night: Harry emptying memories of Remus and Tonks into a pensieve for Teddy to watch
what kind of monster does this? think of the CHILDREN.
whatever you do, don’t imagine hagrid going to godric’s hollow and packing up james and lily’s things.
don’t imagine remus lupin getting a box of their pictures in the mail.
don’t imagine him cutting sirius out of all of them.
I feel like we always assume the marauders found out Remus is a werewolf because they’re clever–which, in part, yes–but remember that Remus Lupin nearly flings his briefcase across the room when Harry asks if he knew Sirius and he’s like NO WHY DO YOU ASK??? So, I think more realistically, 13 year old Remus was probably even a worse liar than 33 year old Remus and it’s a miracle the whole school didn’t find out
in the au where the wizarding world handles things a little more logically (like, say, checking sirius and peter’s wands for who cast the blasting spell) and sirius doesn’t go to azkaban
sirius ends up raising harry
and obviously remus is along to make sure sirius doesn’t either a: spoil harry into oblivion or b: accidentally kill harry
so harry, growing up with them, goes to hogwarts, and gets someone who asks the question of “do you have a mum” and harry replies with “sort of, i have a moony.”
and sirius hears about this on holiday and starts referring to remus as “moomy” bc he’s horrible
and after some time of this, remus just finally turns around and gives sirius a completely deadpan look and just says
“dadfoot”
Lol so a lot of people headcanon that Sirius can speak French, and I headcanon that Remus speaks welsh When they get into fights both of them just end up yelling at eachother in different languages that the other one doesn’t speak
Harry Potter Meme: ↪ Male characters [1/10] - Remus Lupin
Teddy Lupin casting a patronus and everyone starts freaking out bc hOLY SHIT IS THAT A WEREWOLF
but the only thing Teddy feels is the comfort of knowing that his father is still there, protecting him
based heavily on this post, two very different trips on the Hogwarts Express
but please tonks changing into moody and shouting CONSTANT VIGILANCE when remus is in the shower
Just in case you’ve never seen these
