SWALLOWING  PRIDE  WAS  SOMETHING  THAT  REMUS  HAD  GOTTEN  INITIALLY  BETTER  AT  AS  HE  GREW  OLDER  .  that  wasn’t  to  say  that  he  wasn’t  particularly  looking  forward  to  this  conversation  .  but  given  that  he  would  now  be  working  here  for  the  foreseeable  future  ,  he  felt  it  was  necessary  to  extend  the  hand  of  friendship  .  at  least  he  hoped  that  PERHAPS   he  &&  severus  could  make  it  on  good  enough  terms  that  they  could  talk  to  one  another  without  vehement  hatred  &&  lost  into  the  memories  of  cruelty  that  they  enacted  on  each  other  during  their  days  at  school  .  whilst  remus  had  never  taken  part  in  the  jinxes  &&  curses  &&  duels  that  had  HAPPENED  ,  he  had  also  done  nothing  to  stop  it  .

though  severus  was  hardly  innocent  ,  neither  was  james  .  nor  ....  swallowing  blacks  name  deep  within  him    forcing  it  down  because  it  still  hurt  ,  he  chose  to  focus  only  on  moving  forward  .  as  he  had  done  for  the  last  ten  years  .  

moving  through  the  corridors  of  the  great  castle  ,  he  had  HOPED  to  speak  to  severus  the  previous  night  .  unfortunately  ,  his  exhaustion  had  overtaken  him  &&  severus  had  DISAPPEARED  into  his  office  after  the  feast  wanting  not  to  be  disturbed  .  &&  they  had  both  been  teaching  well  into  the  morning  for  remus  to  really  do  any  sort  of  mending  .

a  group  of  seventh  years  (  not  many  since  remus  knew  severus  only  accepted  students  with  outstanding  in  their  OWLs  )  passed  him ,  exiting  the  dungeons  &&  taking  in  his  appearance  .  having  not  taught  them  yet  ,  he  knew  very  well  how  MAYBE  the  were  already  judging  him  .  he  held  it  in  no  CONCERN  before  tapping  the  door  to  the  dungeons  &&  sticking  his  head  around  the  door  .

Send me a “ 🔥 “ for an unpopular opinion.

oh boy. oh boy do you want me to go there??? do you really want me to touch on that???

okay well let’s start with fanon: fanon is fine. a lot of things we build from fanon or work with or whatever, but there comes a point where it just seems... like i read a supposed “interaction” between the marauders the other day and i actually wanted to gag and scratch my eyes out because there is no way that any of these characters would actually say these words. it felt physically so out of character for each of them that i was just...  the worst example of fanon taking things too far is the whole chocolate fiasco with remus john lupin. remus suddenly was addicted to chocolate, a connoisseur of chocolate, obsessed with it to the point where he would hoard it. then came the disgusting headcanons where he wanted to poison himself with chocolate because it’s poisonous to dogs and he hoped it would kill the werewolf.. like ... what the fuck??? what the actual fuck. i have never had to read something so fucking ridiculous, out of character and stupid in all my life. when fanon goes as far as putting the characters in ridiculous ooc actions that don’t align with their character development, personality or growth, it’s just... it becomes a joke. these characters may mean something to you, but they’re not your characters. THEY ARE NOT YOUR CHARACTERS.

canon: honestly i have very little problems with the canon. obviously there are problems with the writing, and there are definitely problematic aspects to it that we probably didn’t catch the first time we explored the canon and definitely things we need to address, but like, we’re all fucking human????????? as far as i know, no one is an impassable folly. everyone makes mistakes. people do dumb fucking shit and yes it’s good to point it out and all that, but people taking the canon and making it a fucking witch-hunt, they choose to make it this terrible thing that can’t be enjoyed, can’t be appreciated, can’t be loved and can’t be held in regard. and this bleeds into my next point

AND YOU MY SON ARE AMAZING

EVERY  PART  OF  HIM  WAS  EXHAUSTED  .  unbelievably  so  .  it  was  like  all  the  energy  had  been  sapped  from  him  &&  extinguished  like  a  candle  .  yet  ,  his  mind  had  not  let  him  sleep  .  he  had  woken  every  hour  on  the  hour  for  the  last  few  days  .  struggling  to  sleep  for  the  better  half  of  a  week  .  every  time  he  ate  ,  he  felt  nauseous  .  every  time  he  tried  to  rest  ,  it  felt  like  his  mind  had  been  set  on  fire  .  he  had  mentioned  it  to  mcgonagall  in  BRIEF  .  just  to  get  it  off  his  chest  for  the  most  part  .  he  wasn’t  entirely  expecting  anything  to  come  of  it  .  

exhausted  ,  he  slumped  into  his  office  ,  having  tried  to  take  a  WAKE  to  tire  himself  out  even  more  .  but  in  truth  ,  he  just  felt  more  awake  than  ever  now  .  pulling  off  his  cloak  &&  storing  his  walking  stick  to  one  side  (  his  joints  were  becoming  painful  again  )  looking  out  at  the  night  sky  beyond  the  window  pane  .  he  moved  around  the  office  gingerly  before  spotting  a  tiny  vial  on  his  desk  .  a  frown  PASSED  over  his  face  &&  he  reached  for  it  ,  reading  the  note  from  severus  that  it  was  a  simple  but  powerful  sleeping  draught  .  OVERWHELMED  slightly  ,  remus  smiled  &&  moved  to  his  bedroom  so  that  he  could  rest  properly  on  his  bed  before  taking  the  potion  .
