mary's stupid ugly boyfriend <33

mary is remus' bi awakening (he thought he was 100% faggot...) when they're like thirteen and mary's like a friend of a friend of a friend (remus's friend peter's friend marlene's friend mary) and they barely ever talk but remus thinks mary is the prettiest girl in the world and he's very awkward and makes bad jokes whenever they're together (rare) and laughs too hard. mary thinks he's endearing but weird and cringe and she has no reason to like him (ugly, poor, weird) but she's like... i'll keep you around ig.

they get a bit closer when mary and sirius become friends in like fifthhhish year because sirius brings mary around to the dorm (usually so she brings lily for james etc etc) and remus is still in love with her but shyer so he just offers chocolate awkwardly and recommends her books based on whatever he sees her reading. mary's like i'm on a diet and i've read that but um... okay. she doesn't hate him she literally has no feelings on him and forgets he exists the minute he's out of sight, and remus is glad for that because 1) if she knew him she'd hate him 2) she's clever & would find out he's a werewolf 3) he would go insane worrying over what mary thought of him BUT it also sucks because he just wants mary to like him, too

exam season comes around and mary's doing an internship and she can't study a lot, she goes to lily but lily's snarky (affectionate) and sirius and he's snarky (derogatory) and she's still in sirius' dorm, thinking of going to maybe james or dorcas when remus comes in from the library and she thinks waitt a minute...

so remus "tutors" mary (summarizes and colour codes all her notes then reads them out to her) and they actually get to talking. mary's sweet and pretty and funny and remus' feelings increase tenfold and he would literally die for her, she touches his arm and makes fun of his handwriting and, once, she touched his face when brushing back the hair from his forehead and he literally short circuited and died

mary starts developing a crush on him and she hatesss it she's like i don't DO romance for personal feelings ewww (<- lie. she is lying to herself. she's fallen for everyone she's dated.) and she tries to bully him around and she feels so bad because he gets all quiet and apologizes and brings her a gift the next day ,,,. once exam season is over and summer break starts she forgets him and dates some muggle boy from her neighbourhood but once she's back remus is still nice and cute and thinks they're friends and mary finds that insulting, a little, because her social circle is elite and small, but she knows remus doesn't know that because he doesn't know any gossip and she hates that she knows that but it's. whatever. she's totally not warming up to him again. she's totally detached and only hangs out with him because if she doesn't he'll be lonely.
