Remus Lupin with the bent nose that’s a little too big, with the soft tired amber eyes, with the soft jawline, with the slightly crooked teeth, with the spattered freckles all over his face, with the knobby knees, with the lanky limbs, with the skinny and completely un-muscled body, with the fluffy curly and inexplicably tangled tawny hair, with the awkward and hunched posture.
Remus Lupin who is so strange and weird that no one really understands why/how he’s friends with James and Sirius, and everyone is even more confused when he and Sirius get together and this literal god of a man is with such a dweeb (then you see them together and they’re so sweet and in love that it makes sense). He has to have a hand on Sirius at all times because, if he doesn’t, he’s scared that Sirius will leave and he won’t know where he is. He always wants to be in Sirius’ lap because he’s freezing cold constantly and Sirius runs hot, so he clearly needs to be cuddled, because why else would they be the way they are. He always has to be held and reassured that he is loved because he’s an insecure little baby.
Remus Lupin’s first kiss was Sirius, he lost his virginity to Sirius, his first relationship was with Sirius, because he’s scared of everyone else finding out he’s a werewolf. The only time he was ever called a Casanova was when his friends poked fun at him for so much as talking to someone outside of their direct friend group (Sirius, James, Peter, Lily, Mary, Marlene, etc.). He was an antisocial weirdo that shied away from conversations, and panicked and ran if any confrontation occurred.
Remus Lupin was not an active problem solver, his fight or flight response was permanently set to flight. He lived on chocolate and tea and whatever snacks his friends brought him when he was studying. He wasn’t a natural straight-O student, he had to work his ass off to get Es in most classes and Es and Os in his best ones. He couldn’t work for the life of him because he had a bad back and hips and knees and once hurt himself trying to lift a stack of books the wrong way (with his back not his legs). He’s allergic to pollen and dust and peanuts and he’s lactose intolerant and his stomach is super sensitive. He doesn’t smoke because he’s got asthma and is too scared he’ll get lung cancer or something because he’s drop-dead terrified of literally everything.
Loser kinda-ugly nerd Remus John Lupin needs to make a comeback because he is so cute.
A little teaser for a WIP for an AU :)
@aubacus is excluded from this guessing, as she knows me irl and that is cheating
IF YOU POST PICTURES OF YOURSELF YOURE CHEATING >:( /j
You absolutely may offer that thank you
What if trophy-husband, stay-at-home-dad, wife-guy James and famous-chemist, working-mom, breadwinner Lily?
Incredibly lazy doodle based on this headcannon
Remus is a big hoodie and no trousers kind of guy, Sirius is a big trousers and no shirt kind of guy. I’m imagining Remus walking around in nothing but Sirius’ jumpers (which absolutely drown him, by the way) while Sirius watches him, blushing with a grin on his face he can’t quite wipe, because there’s marks on his thighs and neck from last night.
Inspired by a fucking Twitter post, actually
Remus who can’t swim because of his physical disabilities which mostly affect his legs and hips and back. Remus who, despite being a little scared of it, loves the ocean and water. Remus who feels bad every time he sees somebody swimming or a pool.
Sirius who is a very strong swimmer and puts Remus on his chest to just exist in the water with his feet off the bottom for once. Sirius who invests in pool floaties so Remus can swim on his own. Sirius who teaches Remus how to float on his back so he can be in the water without floaties.
Sirius doesn’t like the closet in their dorm. Why is that?
“It starts when Sirius trips.
He’s alone in the dorm— James and Peter are serving a detention, as they’re the only ones that got caught for their most recent prank and Remus is in the library, studying with Lily. He’s pretty tired, as well; walking about the dorm, fresh out of the shower, not paying full attention to his surroundings.”
Oh thank you so much
how to draw arms ? ?
Imagine this as Sirius Black, but, when he calls out for “mama” he’s actually calling Effie and Minnie, because they were his real mothers. Imagine he calls for Andy, for Reggie, for Uncle Alphy, because they were his allies in the House of Black. Imagine he calls for Jambi, for Remsie, for Petey, because that’s what he called them before their nicknames.
im a fucking sucker for the “character gets so badly injured that they can’t think clearly and start calling for help in a distressingly vulnerable way.” characters who start using nicknames for their friends they haven’t used since they were kids. characters who start begging for their brother they haven’t seen in years to be there. characters who would usually use their parents’ names or call them mother/father/etc crying out mama when they go down. u understand.
I think I hate people because on my fic about Sirius struggling with societal norms and wanting to dress feminine but not wanting to be perceived as weird I explicitly stated TWICE that he wasn’t trans (in that fic) and somebody STILL commented about how it was a great female Sirius fic??? I’m so sorry are we illiterate? Are we dumb? What happened? I literally told you he’s a cis guy. He made a big deal out of it. It’s a fic about how society puts people into boxes based on appearance and he didn’t want people to do that. Where do I go wrong? Did they just not read part of the fic? Did they just close their eyes? It was literally tagged as “boys in skirts” what do you mean female Sirius???
Cloud!
if Sirius is a star, Remus is the moon and James is the sun, WHAT is Peter??
They/ItI leave a lot of extra content in tags lolWolfstar + JilyAo3: SaltedPapercutsFuck JKR!
