Summary
A shiver trembles through Sirius, racing up his spine, and he blames the crisp air. Remus leans closer, and his lips are parting-- and Sirius shrieks as a chunk of wet, numbing snow is rubbed into his cheek. He squirms beneath him, twisting his head away, but Remus only presses him harder into the glacial ground.
When Remus sits back, Sirius glowers darkly, using his freed arm to wipe his face with his sleeve. He can't quite remember how to breathe, and Remus is still over him, their legs tangled and bent at odd angles.
"You were a lot nicer to me when you were sick." Sirius says.
"I was weak." Remus smiles, and the warmth from his body fades as he gets to his feet. "Don't get used to it."
Of pub quizzes, old films, Chinese takeaways, broken arms, and impassioned discussions of literature: Remus is confusing, and Sirius is just trying to figure him out.

Summary
For all that the teasing in the Great Hall hurt him, two words float back to Remus’ memory making him ache. ‘My Moony.’
Remus stares pointedly back into his book. He knows he won’t be able to look at Sirius and not cave.
“Remus, darling,” Sirius starts with a teasing melodrama, effectively punching Remus in the stomach. “You have got to start talking to me again.” Don’t look at him. “Because someone used a sticking charm on the Potters and they physically cannot be parted. Peter is snogging now, and all the girls hate me.”
‘You’re better company than being completely alone, I guess,’ is what Remus hears. It’s better this way.
“And I miss you,” Sirius adds quietly.

Summary
Sirius always pushes a bit too far. There are always consequences, and he doesn’t care. He doesn’t care if he gets hurt.
After his expulsion from Beauxbatons, Sirius has never been in a more precarious position with his family. His priority at Hogwarts should be keeping his head down, surviving, keeping the peace.
But trying to survive turns into wanting to live, and he thinks he might be falling in love.

Summary
Voldemort is ended once and for all in 1981. Remus and Sirius divorce in 1984. And in 1994, McGonagall asks Sirius to teach at Hogwarts. But he'd have to be mad to willingly find himself within 100 miles of Professor Lupin.
“I heard one of them owes the other money,” said Ron. “That’s why they hate each other.”
“Nah, I heard Professor Black stole Lupin’s girl back in the day,” whispered Seamus.
“Don’t be stupid,” Hermione sniffed. “There's got to be another reason.”
-or-
ex-husband professors behave entirely professionally. and the students should mind their own business.
