Happy Birthday, Remus Lupin. You troubled, compassionate, smart, quietly determined, gentle but with an edge of coldness, patient, thoughtful, anxious, wise but clueless, hopelessly romantic but somehow aloof, bundle of softness with edges.
I guess after twenty plus years, I just can't shake you. I promise to treat you more warmly in my work than you treat yourself.
And I promise Sirius Black has you in his soul.
Summer of 1994.
They don’t know each other anymore.
Sirius is faded and smudged, like black ink blotted. He wanders at night, ghosts in his eyes, and sleeps in the day. He’s a diluted shadow of the man Remus knew.
Remus is greyed and brittle, like cliffside shale. He’s lost purchase on what it is to be loved, and keeps his back to the wall. He’s lost the shine Sirius loved in him when they were young.
But they’re finding each other again, feeling blindly in the dark.
Inspired by this song.

Happy birthday Moony! 🌙 (Sorry I’m a bit late)
Soo... somehow got myself sucked into The Marauders fandom and I have no idea how -- but have a young Sirius Black, because I'm just gonna embrace this~ ✨

It’s Midsummer, but Remus isn’t in the mood for partying because he can’t drink. And on top of that, Sirius is flirting with a handsome stranger.
