what do you think wolfstar is like in uni? are they the dream couple? classic jock x nerd? or nerd x nerd? like what do you think their energy would give? i love ur hcs so much so i wonder about ur opinion!
such a perfect ask thank you, i had so much fun writing these hcs
they meet in a shared elective on english literature/social studies/psychology/whatever. sirius is the one sprawled across two seats, cracking witty comments that make the whole seminar laugh. remus sits in the back corner, hoodie up, scribbling thoughtful notes and occasionally dropping one devastatingly insightful comment that shuts the room up. sirius is hooked instantly and starts saving the seat next to him every week with his bag
sirius is the one who haunts the 24-hour library at 2am not for studying but because he knows remus will be there, surrounded by open books and half-finished essays on existentialism
sirius brings terrible instant coffee and they end up debating camus vs. sartre in whispers until the librarian kicks them out. heâs absolutely mesmerized because remus has this dry, razor-sharp wit that makes sirius vibrate with nervous energy (and arousal too lol. competency kink all the way)
sirius himself is the uni âitâ boy, always surrounded by people trying to get his attention. but he ditches parties early to take a walk with remus or sit in the library with him
remus gets hit on constantly because heâs also so damn hot in his band t-shirts over long-sleeves, with a hoop earring and a shit ton of freckles all over his face. philosophy majors slide into his messages with essay-length compliments on his tutorial comments, quiet bookish types leave annotated poems in his campus mailbox, even a couple of brave ones ask him to coffee after lectures
he politely turns them all down with the same soft smile and âsorry, iâm seeing someoneâ. the someone is always sirius waiting outside with two coffees and a possessive stare
sirius is stupidly proud of remusâ brain. heâll brag to anyone who listens about remusâ latest paper or how he corrected a professor in seminar. remus gets shy about it but secretly loves when sirius calls him a âfucking geniusâ in that low voice right before kissing the scar on his eyebrow
theyâre the perfect couple because they protect each otherâs peace. when sirius is overwhelmed by his loud social circle, remus pulls him into his tiny off-campus flat, makes dinner, and lets sirius vent while occasionally running fingers through his hair. when remus is spiraling over deadlines or feeling too in-his-head, sirius blasts music and makes him sing along and dance around the kitchen until heâs breathless and smiling again
they start a morning routine in their second year when they move in together. sirius (who hates mornings) clings to remus like a koala while remus tries to make oats one-handed, both of them in oversized jumpers and socks. sirius murmurs sleepy âlove youâs into remusâ neck and remus tries not to grin like a lovesick fool
some of their friends keep waiting for the âopposites attractâ drama but it never comes. theyâre weirdly aligned on the small things: both hate small talk at department parties, both love shitty horror films at 3am, both get passionate about the same niche interests. when they argue itâs about punctuation in shared documents or which translation of a poem is superior. theyâre both nerds like come on
people assume sirius is the protective one because heâs louder and more social, but remus is quietly fierce. when some pretentious lit bro tries to corner sirius at a reading event with backhanded compliments, remus just slides in, drops one perfectly devastating line about the guyâs last published piece, and returns to smoking his cig like nothing happened. sirius is grinning for day
remusâ lockscreen is a blurry photo of sirius laughing mid-sentence at the kitchen table, hair messy, looking unbearably soft. sirius loves sm that remus, who could have anyone, chose this chaotic version of him every single day
theyâre not the couple that throws big parties or makes out in the quad. theyâre the ones who disappear for hours into their own little world, sirius reading over remusâ shoulder, correcting his grammar just to get elbowed, remus wearing siriusâ stolen jackets to lectures because they smell like home and other adorable stuff
