R.J.Lupin | S1E01 You were the first (Years 1-3 at Hogwarts)
The first episode for the remake of my series R.J.Lupin is finally here! (Year 1-3 for the Marauders at Hogwarts). Here’s the plot, it’s long but I had 3 years to cover xD (The next ones will be shorter lol)
READ FIRST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Shortly before Remus’s eleventh birthday, no less a person than Albus Dumbledore, Headmaster of Hogwarts, arrived uninvited on the Lupins’ doorstep to invite Remus to attend Hogwarts, something that his father Lyall(Matt Smith) never thought possible after his son had been bitten at age 4 by werewolf Greyback. After being sorted into Gryffindor, Remus soon finds himself at odds with James Potter and Sirius Black, who like to tease the shy and underdog Peter Pettigrew. Things soon change however as Remus comfort Sirius, upset by an article about his family Dark Magic association, and the boy is struck by Remus’ kindness and ready mind. However, Remus’ friends realise he’s secretly a werewolf, and the boy isolates himself again for fear of rejection.
On their second year, the group manage to convince Remus they don’t actually care about his condition, and the group is soon reformed. James joins Gryffindor’s quidditch team as a chaser, something he proudly talks about with his new crush and quidditch enthusiast Lily Evans, but falls off his broom 5 minutes into his first game poorly.
The night before their return to Hogwarts for their 3rd year, the boys meet up to camp in the woods outside the Potter house, wanting to cheer up Remus after a particularly bad moon. They lose the train and Snape, a Slytherin in their same hear and best friend with Lily, tells on them to Professor Mcgonagall. Upset by Gryffindor loosing 200 points before the term started, Lily confronts James who, to defend himself, accidentally let it slip about Remus condition. This causes the Marauders to split up again (Sirius being torn between his bestfriend and his developing crush on Remus), but when Lily reassures Remus that she’s okay with his secret the group slowly come together again. Remus’ condition getting more difficult with age, the Marauders start to prepare the famous Map to keep track of Remus during full moons.
