Sirius: Oh yeah?! Well if this is how you react when your best friend simply tries to make himself some profit, then you can fuck right off!!

James: Yeah, profit by STEALING THE PROPERTY I HAVE BEEN EYEING?? GET STUFFED BLACK!!

Peter: Now now, boys. Calm down.

Sirius, turning on him: YOU FUCK OFF PETTIGREW!! You literally have three— no— FOUR properties to your name!!

James, grumbling: Not to mention you refuse to visit your dear friends on their property!!

Sirius: Yeah! What of our profits?!

Remus: Lay off both of you. You're sore losers.

Sirius, throwing his hands up: SAID BY THE FUCKING BANKER— WHAT WOULD YOU KNOW OF PAIN?!

James: I SAW YOU PAWING AT THOSE 500 POUND BILLS LUPIN, DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED—

Remus: OH SO MY PROFIT DOESN'T MATTER??

Sirius: NOT IF YOU'RE CHEATING THE SYSTEM!!

James: BECAUSE YOU WOULD KNOW ALL ABOUT CHEATING, WOULDN'T YOU BLACK?! WHAT WITH THE WAY YOU CHEATED YOUR BEST MATE—

Sirius: OH MY FUCKING— IT ISN'T THAT DEEP?!

Peter: UHHH YEAH IT IS?? PROPERTY ISN'T A GAME?!

Remus, nodding: And neither is Monopoly. You're an ass, Pads.

Sirius, bewildered: I'M YOUR BOYFRIEND??

Remus, shrugging: All is fair in war— and Monopoly is a battlefield.

Peter: Hell yeah, Lupin.

James: What Moony said.

Sirius, whirling on James: I DIDN'T SEE YOU PREACHING THIS WHEN YOU FUCKING TACKLED REMUS FOR FORGETTING TO GIVE YOU 200 POUNDS?!

James: WOAH NOW, THAT'S DIFFERENT AND YOU KNOW IT!! THE "PASS GO" RULE IS HOLY AND SACRED!!!

Sirius: I'LL SHOW YOU HOLY AND SACRED WHEN I FUCKING SEND YOU TO HEAVEN—

do you respect trans people who look like their agab, whether they want to or not?

do you respect transfems with body/facial hair? transfems who don't wear makeup or dresses or skirts? transfems with low voices? transfems with short hair?

and do you respect transmascs who don't bind? transmascs who wear makeup or dresses or skirts? transmascs with high voices? transmascs with long hair?

but halfway through, remus realizes sirius isn’t doing this because he wants sex. he’s doing it because he thinks he deserves to be punished.

so remus stops. he just lies down beside him and pulls him close, pressing soft kisses to his forehead and cheeks while sirius looks completely confused.

and remus tells him that arguments aren’t punishments. that people who love each other are allowed to be angry with each other. that fighting is supposed to help them understand each other better, not hurt each other.
