Nymphadora Tonks, just shy of three weeks pregnant.

Taken by Remus Lupin one Sunday afternoon in 1997.

Remus didn’t often let people take pictures of him. Tonks didn’t often listen.

Taken by Tonks when Remus wasn’t looking.

Four months pregnant, she still insisted on Order missions. They were partners.

Taken by Remus Lupin in November 1997.

Tonks said it was the ugliest jumper she’d ever seen. Remus didn’t care.

Taken by Tonks on Christmas Eve, 1997.

This was the longest period Tonks had ever not spoken for.

Taken by Remus Lupin, during the longest eight minutes of his life.

In her third trimester, she craved chocolate cake.

Taken by Remus Lupin at 2am on a Thursday.

Remus once thought he couldn’t be happy. This was the happiest day of his life.

Taken by Tonks, who was definitely not crying, the day their son was born.

Edward Remus Lupin, exactly two weeks old.

Taken by his mother, who sang him to sleep for the last time that evening.

Tonks’s favourite picture of Remus. She never failed to make him laugh.

Found in her coat pocket on the 3rd May, 1998.

Just show up.

I used to skip class because the whole thing was so overwhelming: I had to get dressed in something clean even though I never had the energy to do laundry, walk to school, sit in class for up to three hours, plus pay attention, take notes, and participate in discussion. In reality, I was being a perfectionist, and life would have been a lot easier for me if I had Just Shown Up. By staying home because of my depression and anxiety, I wasn’t giving myself the chance to do any of that. I was such a perfectionist that being a “bad” or average student was unthinkable, so I stopped being a student at all.

so what if no one else gets how the things you define as successes are victories because you have to

so you got to work - success

you used public transport - success

you went to the supermarket instead of ordering online and didn’t just buy things you dind’t want because you got scared - MASSIVE success

We were runnin’ so fast And we never looked back And whatever I lacked, you made up We made a really good team Said I’m never gonna leave We had this crazy chemistry Between us

Jumped into your car anytime we were bored Wearing anything and everything that you ever wore Making new clichés on own little tour Let’s ride

You never should’ve said I love you now I’ve left you blue Remember all the shooting stars and all the silver moons? Dirty, messy shades of purple out of red and blue Bet you wish you didn’t know me, now you’re lonely I’ll always miss you I’ll always miss you, you

We were staying up late On our private little dates Staying over your place, how cheesy And we took jokes way too far Cause sometimes loving’s too hard I think we might be better apart We are, we are, we are

You never should’ve said I love you now I’ve left you blue Remember all the shooting stars and all the silver moons? Dirty, messy shades of purple out of red and blue Bet you wish you didn’t know me, now you’re lonely I’ll always miss you I’ll always miss you, you

We weren’t a commercial for everyone else We went out for coffee and kept to ourselves We made little homes out of 3 star hotels And I know what you’re feeling Hope you’re healing as well
