Minervra Mcgonagall was sat in her warm office one Saturday afternoon, grading papers and catching up on work since the previous week, the first week of april, she had spent chasing around her four Gryffindor boys, trying to stop their April fools pranks.
Mid afternoon, during the time all the students would be in the Great Hall for lunch, an owl swooped in through the open window and dropped a letter, before flying out again. Minevra picked up the letter and saw her name in a neat but unfamiliar. She flipped the envelope over in her hand, there was no seal. Minevra slipped the letter out and unfolded the single piece of parchment. Written in a different writing from what was on the envelope was five, unusual words;
Mumma, just killed a man
Minevra froze for a moment. Deciding it was probably just a prank or a mistake, she sat the letter to the side and continued on either her work.
A few minutes later, in swooped another owl. The writting on the envelope wasn't the same as the one before or the one in the writting, so she assumed it wasn't the same people. The letter wasn't sealed so she slipped the parchment out and unfolded it.
Put a gun against his head
This time, fear coursed through her. A gun? Surely not. She wasn't an auror or muggle police, this wasn't her job. So, she sat the letter aside and continued with her work.
An hour went on with no letters. Minevra sat in her office, listening to the fire while trying to work but her mind kept returning to the two pieces of parchment on her left.
Suddenly, another owl swooped in, dropped a letter and flew off. The name on the letter, her name, was written by the same person as who wrote the last letter. Still no seal. Minevra took a breath and slipped out the letter.
Pulled my trigger now he's dead
Before she could react, two more owls swooped in an dropped two more letters.
The first of the two said
Mumma
And the other
Life had just begun
Minevra played the words over and over in her head. They seemed familiar. But where from?
As she thought about it, in flew another owl. The letter in this, the same as the last few, said
But now I've gone and thrown it all away
That's it! The professor jumped from her chair, knocking it to the ground. She transformed into the tabby cat and made her way to the owlry.
As she climbed the stairs she heard a bark of laughter and knew she was in the right place. There, sat in the owlry, amongst pieces of parchment and envelopes, sat the four Gryffindor boys she'd adopted, unofficially, as her sons, laughing and giggling as James Potter scribbled down the words Remus Lupin was telling him too.
"Minnie's going to be so mad!" Peter grinned.
"Nah, I think she'd like to be delivered the lyrics of bohemian rhapsody, line by line." Sirius said sarcastically.
but make it a little more ouat style so regulus is a prince and his kingdom is suffering so he makes a deal with the beast, giving up hos freedom for his kingdom safety and health??

Parents should not be reading your journals
Parents should not be searching through your trash
Parents should not be snooping on your private social media messages
Parents should not be taking your bedroom door off
Parents should not be invading your privacy
Oh, I'm a bit sad now
"Fucking hell, is he smiling?" Rabastan asks. "I didn't know he could do that. James Potter, you've got skills."

This is giving me Tonks talking about Remus vibes.
AND BEFORE ANYONE STARTS!
Yes, I'm a maruaders Stan and I adore Wolfstar but I still love Remus and Tonks.
In my mind, their best friends with benefits. Remus lost sirius, Tonks lost her gf (not canon). They were lonely. Remus got Tonks pregnant and since ts frowned upon to be pregnant in the wizarding world and not married, they got married and planned to raise Teddy as besties and tell him the truth when he could understand. Then they were killed and didn't get the chance to tell anyone the truth...
When I think of the years he drank, the scars on his chin, his thinning hair, his eye that still weeps decades after the blow, my knees weaken with gratitude for whatever kept him safe, whatever stopped the glass from cracking and shearing something vital, the fist from lowering, exploding an artery, pressing the clot of blood toward the back of his brain. Now, he sits calmly on the couch, reading, refusing to wear the glasses I bought him, holding the open book at arm’s length from his chest. Behind him the windows are smoky with mist and the tile floor is pushing its night chill up through the bare soles of his feet. I like to think he survived in order to find me, in order to arrive here, sober, tired from a long night of tongues and hands and thighs, music on the radio, coffee– so he could look up and see me, standing in the kitchen in his torn t-shirt, the hem of it brushing my knees, but I know it’s only luck that brought him here, luck and a love that had nothing to do with me, except that this is what we sometimes get if we live long enough, if we are patient with our lives.
