Remus knew that if he didn't meet Sirius when they were kids, he would have never been part of a group like The Marauders. They were so cool. They were so fun. They were the group of friends anyone wished they had.

Remus knew he was an intruder. Sometimes he felt out of place. The three boys were rich, they had everything. They never experienced what Remus did. They never lacked of anything.

James, Sirius and Peter had been friends for years. They had inside jokes Remus didn't understand. They had shared adventures Remus hadn't.

James and Peter only liked Remus because Sirius said so. And Sirius only liked Remus because of what they went through as kids. A nostalgic feeling more like.

Remus would have never been a considered in other circumstances. He wasn't actually their friend. He wasn't actually a Marauder. He was so different and uncool.

What Remus didn't know was that he balanced the group like no one else had. He was a complement for the Marauders. He made the boys better, the group better.

Remus became a confident for James. He listened to whatever rant he had. James loved to talk a lot and Remus was a good listener. He casually became friends with Lily, the girl of his dreams. And Remus was their matchmaker. He helped him get to know her better and he taught him how to behave around her. Remus listened with a smile how he talked and talked about her nonstop.

James also understood through Remus, the consequences of his actions. Remus had been a victim of bullying and mockery before. And James realized he didn't want to be that asshole anymore. Instead he swore to protect Remus from everyone who treated him differently. James considered Remus a good friend.

Remus became like a brother for Peter. Before Remus, The Marauders' dynamic was pretty much centered around James and Sirius. Sometimes they didn't take Peter seriously. Of course they loved him and worried about him, but their personalities were so chaotic that sometimes they didn't realize Peter needed someone to listen to him and pay him attention. James and Sirius joked around Peter. And he felt included when they did that. But not everything was a joke. Remus paid Peter more attention. Because while James and Sirius were more wild and open, Remus and Peter were more quiet and calm. Remus noticed when Peter was down and needed someone to talk to. Remus truly listened and tried to help Peter with his issues. He tried to make sure Peter didn't put himself down. And he was constantly telling him he was good enough.

Remus made James and Sirius notice when they were wrong with Peter. When their jokes stepped over the line. So James and Sirius felt bad about making Peter feel bad and genuinely apologized.

Remus became Sirius' first love, the one to make him feel in the clouds, but also the one to put him in the ground. Remus made Sirius knew other types of realities and problems. That he wasn't the center of attention. He showed him that he didn't have to pretend to be perfect all the time and he was allowed to be vulnerable. But also with Remus, and what Sirius felt for him, he had more courage to be himself, to be more queer and more open about his feelings.

When Sirius acted like a proper dick (and he did most of the time, based on how he was raised), Remus put him in his place. He was the only one to make him calm down when he was having one of his tantrums. Because James just pleased him too much and Peter just left him alone (not to be involved in that). But Remus made him realize he was acting like a whinny baby. So Sirius stopped. Sirius matured thanks to Remus.

Remus didn't know how The Marauders appreciated his arrival. Remus made the boys better and the group better. He was the missing piece of The Marauders. They weren't meant to be three. Always four. And Remus was meant to be their friend.

Hey!! Could you do a headcannon for Remus with fem!reader from France but she’s not the typical soft French girl and more of a rebel? Your writing is amazing and I’ve never seen someone do that before!💕💕

hello, darling! of course I can! thank you so much, it means the world to me to read things like this!! hope you enjoy it, feel free to send more requests! 💞💞

warnings: another request for our sweet boy Remmy, fluff, sirius being a drama queen, there are like two phrases in French and I used Google translator to translate it, so I'm sorry if it's wrong! also english is not my first language, so I'm really sorry for any mistakes!

my masterlist ♡

you had lived your whole life in France and studied in Académie de Magie Beauxbatons ever since you were eleven, as you were a witch

your parents were purebloods and always expected you to be the typical French perfect girl

petite, fragile, polite and fanatic for the pureblood supremacy

well, let's say you gladly were nothing like that

you didn't care about people's blood statuses, you just wanted to live your own life

your parents were really happy when you received a scholarship to attend Hogwarts

you were happy too, of course

it meant your family wasn't around and you didn't need to worry about pretending to be someone you weren't

you could finally be yourself

you went to Hogwarts in the beginning of your fourth year and was sorted in (y/h)

you made a few friends quite fast, only one, but it was a progress; Lily Evans

you first met the redhead girl in potions, when Slughorn was teaching how to brew a new potion and you didn't quite understand the instructions very well

“excuse me” you said, tapping her shoulder “could you help me with this? It's really 'ard for me.” you continued, your heavy french accent making itself present

she smiled at you politely and nodded before starting to explain the potion to you

you started talking and knowing more about each other

you became friends :D

after a few days she introduced you to her friends - the “marauders”

at first, Remus and Sirius didn't really like you because they thought you were like your family

but after spending some time with you, they realised that you were nothing like them

ok you started hanging out with them even more because they were actually nice to you now

as Sirius also speaks French, you two would sometimes spend hours just speaking in French

during one of this conversations, you accidentally told him you had a crush on a certain brown haired gryffindor werewolf

he would then tease you whenever Remus and you were in the same place

“tu rougis, (Y/n)” (you are blushing, y/n) he said next to your ear, teasing you when Remus sat close to you

“tais-toi, Black” (shut up, Black) you would reply, punching him softly and giggling

Remus would be a little sad because he thought Sirius and you were flirting

so he would be a little quieter than usual

you obviously noticed it and got a little sad too

Sirius noticed (everybody but you two did, actually) so he started making a plan

he was tired of hearing Remus talking about the beautiful french girl and how beautiful her smile is and how soft her hair is

he was sick of it

so after detention, he went straight to where you and Remus were

you two looked at him confused, waiting for him to continue talking

“I'm tired of you two!” he exclaimed

“pardon?” you said, confusedly

“you!” he said, pointing at you “I'm tired of hearing you chattering about Remus and his stupid hot scars all day in French!”

you blushed, opening your mouth to argue but he started talking again

“and you!” he pointed at Remus this time “if think her lips are so kissable, then why in the hell don't you just kiss them?!”

“what the-” Remus tried to speak, but Sirius cut him off

“for fuck's sake, just date already, I'm begging!” and then he just left the room, leaving you two alone, red painting your faces

you just sat there for a few minutes, not daring to look at each other

“little shit” you mumbled, cheeks still dark red

“I'm sorry for that, (Y/n)” Remus rushed to say, quickly getting up “just ignore him, he's an idiot, you see”

“I'm free on Saturday” you said quietly and he looked at you, a little taken aback

“excuse me?” he stopped doing whatever he was doing

“Saturday, Hogsmeade trip. You and I, what do you think?” you asked, all your confidence suddenly disappeared

he didn't say anything for a few seconds, and you started regretting saying that

when you opened your mouth to start apologizing, he blinked and smiled brightly

“I would love to” he shyly answered

Sirius was overhearing everything, silently celebrating that the two dumbasses finally got together

when you two came back from your date, Sirius made you two sit down and tell him how it was

you both were blushing like madmen

he would be really excited to see his besties were together

Remus would cough and excuse you two, carefully pulling you by your hand and leaving Sirius there

he would tell something like “oooh they're going to make out”

and you guys were like Sirius what the hell

in fact you were going to make out, but he didn't need to know it, right? ;)

when your parents found out about your relationship with the cute werewolf they sent you a howler

you sent a letter telling them to fuck off oops :)

Runaway Groom

[THE FRIENDS AU THAT NO ONE ASKED FOR BUT I’VE BEEN WANTING TO DO FOR AGES. Well, kind of… Not really… But a little.]

“So what if it didn’t work out between the two of you? There’s plenty of other people out there for you. You’re a great guy, Remus. You’ve just gotta get yourself out there.” James attempted to encourage his friend. James, Remus, their friend Peter and James’ girlfriend, Lily, were all sat at their local bar on a Friday evening. Due to it only being 7pm, it was still in what they called, “pub mode” so it was still early enough that there was just quiet music playing in the background and a reasonable amount of people. When it come to 11am, they would turn the main lights down and turn on the strobe lights, clear all of the tables and chairs out and start blaring the music so that the clubbing could start. They usually left just before then.

“I know but… Oh, you know I hate being single.” Remus sighed, knowing it sounded silly. But he hated being alone. He was a teacher so his hours left him with quite a bit of downtime, perfect for spending with a partner, cuddled up on the sofa or out for drinks with his friends.

“Well, you’ve been single for almost two months now, mate, and you’ve been doing just fine.” Peter pointed out as he took a sip of his cider from the bottle, which made Remus cringe slightly. It was seen as the ‘cool’ way to do it but Remus couldn’t stand drinking from bottles or watching others do it. How many grubby hands had touched that bottle before it had even made it to the pub? No, Remus would stick to his clan glass, thank you.

“I know but… Well, you guys can’t judge me, okay? James, you pined for the same girl for like seven years before she finally agreed to go out with you and Pete hasn’t had a girlfriend since he was like 14! That was over ten years ago.” Remus huffed defensively before sighing, realising that he was being unfair. “Look, I’m sorry. I just want to be in a relationship again… Find someone that I can marry and spend the rest of my life with.” Remus had just finished talking when the doors to the bar flung open, catching everyone’s attention as a breathtakingly attractive man walked in the door.

His jawline and cheekbones could cut glass, his long and slightly curly hair was thrown up in a very wet and messy bun. His skin was pale, although his face was flushed and twisted with worry, his chest heaving as if he had been running. His slim body was covered by a sharp and expensive-looking black suit with an emerald green tie that was wet and stuck to his body and he had a large ring on his finger that Remus could see, even from several tables away, appeared to have some sort of crest on it. Remus wasn’t sure whether he should compare him to a Greek God or a runaway groom from a fairytale.

The man’s frantic eyes searched the bar before the met Remus’ and the man did a double take. He licked his lips before blinking, his brows furrowing as if attempting to pull himself together before they moved away and Remus saw relief fill them. He noticed that the other man was now looking at James. No. He was practically running towards James, who had stood up and was staring at the gorgeous man in shock. Remus was only half surprised when James jumped over the small table that they had been gathered around to meet the man halfway, where they collided in a tight hug. As he had gotten closer, Remus also noticed that he appeared to have a black eye blooming.

Words were exchanged as the whole bar freely gaped at the two of them, James rubbing the man’s back and arms as they stood in a half-hug whilst the newcomers spoke quickly, his eyes darting around quickly as if expecting someone to jump out and attack him. A few minutes passed before the man seemingly calmed down and James led him over to their group. The man looked like a deer in headlights as he slowly walked towards them, slightly hunched over.

“Everyone, this is my old friend from school, Sirius. Sirius, you remember Lily.” James began, causing both of them to nod. Lily grinned at Sirius and waved but Sirius could only muster a weak smile and a slight lift of his hand. It was obvious that whatever had happened had been bad. “That’s Peter over there and that’s Remus.” He introduced and a similar thing happened between the three of them. James gently nudged Sirius into a seat and signalled for Peter to move over so they all moved around so that James could sit beside Sirius. James signalled for two more beers from the bartender before turning his attention back to Sirius.

“What happened to you, Black?” Lily questioned, taking a sip of her gin and tonic and leaning forward slightly in her seat. “You just disappeared in our last year… You and your brother, no one knew what happened to you.”

James, Lily and Sirius had all gone to Hogwarts, an expensive private boarding school in Scotland, that was incredibly difficult to get into until your family had a lot of money. Lily was one of the only students to get a full scholarship there, which she had been bullied mercilessly for, but it hadn’t mattered. She was the smartest in her year. Halfway through their last year, Sirius had been pulled out fo a lesson and then when James had looked for him, he hadn’t been able to find him anywhere and then had noticed that all of Sirius’ stuff had been taken from their room. The professors had refused to say why and Sirius�� phone had been cut off and any letters sent to his home had been sent back.

“My, uh.. Well, my parents took us out of school, cut our phones off and then moved us away. We’ve actually been in France for the last few years.” Sirius confessed, not wanting to go into the full details.

“Why are you so wet? It’s not even raining.” Peter pointed out with a slight frown, glancing to the door as someone else came in and spotting that it was a clear night.

“It’s not raining here but it is in, uh, in France. I got off of the Eurostar and got a taxi straight to James’ parents house… After a bit of fussing, they said that he would be here so I ran here.” Sirius admitted. “I didn’t really know where to go.”

“You look like you’ve just come from a wedding.” Lily observed, eyes shining with curiosity and pity. Sirius didn’t know which one he hated more.

“Yes, I did. My wedding.” He sighed, rolling his eyes as he heard Lily gasp. “Yes. Apparently coming out to your parents as gay on the day of your arranged marriage is a bad idea.” He scoffed, indicating to his bruised eye. The bartender brought over the beers and Sirius thanked. “Sorry, can I get a glass, please?” He requested, breathing a sigh of relief as the bartender nodded. Like Remus, he also refused to drink out of bottles.

“Yeah, I wouldn’t have thought it would be.” Lily breathed, staring at his black eye. Sirius could tell that they had a thousand questions for him but he wasn’t ready to answer them yet. He was exhausted. His wedding had been only a few hours earlier. He had gone straight from the church to Gare du Nord, where he had boarded on the Eurostar, which had taken him to King’s Cross. He had then gone straight to James’ parents house and then ran to the pub. He felt like he hadn’t slept for weeks due to the stress of the wedding and just hoped that James would be okay with him spending a night or two.

“Look, don’t let me ruin your evening. Carry on as you were.” Sirius encouraged, hoping that they would get the hint that he didn’t want to talk anymore. Thankfully, they did, although they were obviously making a great deal to show that they were still having fun because by the time 10pm rolled around, Sirius and Remus were having to practically drag James, Lily and Peter home. James assured Sirius that they only lived round the corner so they could walk but Sirius was still wearing a damp suit and the night was cold so he was shivering slightly until James decided to throw and arm around his shoulders and slur about how much he missed him.

It took them almost 30 minutes to get them to their flat, a walk which Remus had tiredly told Sirius usually only takes 10 minutes at the very most. After watching James struggle to undo their door, Sirius took his key and let James and Lily in whilst Remus did the same for Peter. It turned out that James and Lily lived in one flat and Peter and Remus lived opposite them. Soon Peter was in as well and it was just Sirius and Remus left alone. Remus hadn’t drank that much, used to being the one to drag the others home.

“Hey, thanks for helping me. Usually I have to drag them all by myself.” Remus said with a nervous chuckle as he stood just outside the doorway to his flat. He watched the shivering man in front of him and felt bad for him but knew that he would be safe, happy and warm with James. That is until they both began to hear load groaning and constant banging noises.

“Oh, no.” Sirius muttered as he looked at the door, which had been slightly left open so that Sirius could still get in there.

“Are they boning again?” Peter slurred a moment later as he appeared in the doorway, which caused Sirius to chuckle as he looked over at the shorter lad. He laughed again as he saw the Peter had stripped down to his boxers and one luminous pink sock. Sirius couldn’t help but wondering if they were socks that he wore to bed because they were comfortable or if Peter had worn them all day. Were they the last pair he had because he hadn’t done any washing? Or did Peter actually like them? He was stalling as he tried to think of his next move until Remus spoke again.

“Yes, they are, Peter. Now, for goodness sake, brush your teeth and go to bed.” Remus instructed, using his ’teacher voice’ as the others called it. They were all very familiar with the teacher voice. Peter mumbled something but nodded and stumbled away, his socked foot causing him to slip with every step but he didn’t seem to notice. He wasn’t walking straight anyway so it didn’t really matter. “Look, I know it’s a bit forward but you can stay with us tonight if you want to.” Remus offered, nervously rubbing the back of his neck as he saw Sirius raise a brow. “I mean, we don’t have a guest bedroom like James and Lily do and it just saves you a night of listening to them… Bone as Peter so poetically put it. You’d be on the sofa but you could have a shower and borrow some clothes. Pete snores but we soundproofed his room so you won’t hear it. Tomorrow’s a Sunday and I usually cook breakfast for all of us on a Sunday morning so you could help me with that if you want?” Remus was rambling now and if Sirius’ small grin was anything to go by, Sirius knew it as well.

“I’d like that… Thank you, Remus.” Sirius practically whispered, smiling genuinely for the first time in weeks, maybe months. Hell, maybe even years. A quick shower later, Sirius was sat on the sofa in Remus and Peter’s living room, wearing a pair of Remus’ sweatpants, which were much too large on him, but he had pulled the strings around the waist tighter and that seemed to keep them up. He had also followed a fluffy jumper to wear to warm himself up. He was curled up with a blanket on his lap and a cup of tea in his hand, talking quietly to Remus. They weren’t talking about anything that had the potential to lead onto unpleasant memories. Sirius was telling stories of his memories of James from Hogwarts and Remus was telling similar stories about the shenanigans that James still got up to In recent years.

Remus was just coming to the end of a story about how James had almost gotten into a fight with an old lady at a fast food joint when he looked up from his mug and over at Sirius, only to notice that the young lad was drifting off. Remus couldn’t help the fond grin on his face as he carefully stood up, placing his own mug on the table before he gently took Sirius’ mug off of him, from where it was dangerously close to falling from his limp fingers and spilling the remaining amount on the tired aristocrat. Sirius’ fingers twitched slightly in response and he let out a long, sleepy sigh but that was it.

Remus then took both mugs to the kitchen and emptied them, rinsing them off and then leaving them on the side to be cleaned properly the next morning before he went back to Sirius. He placed a hand on Sirius’ shoulder and gently nudged him. The young lad seemed to wake slightly and blinked at Remus a couple of times before his eyes merely fluttered shut again. Chuckled fondly, Remus continued to gently nudge and shift him until Sirius got the message and sluggishly moved to lay down, when he then tucked the blankets around Sirius’ warm body. His damp hair was now down from its messy bun and had been combed so was beginning to dry and curl slightly on Sirius’ shoulders. Remus thought he looked absolutely gorgeous, despite his black eye and the fact that the clothes were far too big for him. Remus placed a hand on his arm and gently tucked a strand of his hair behind his ear.

“Goodnight, Sirius.” He murmured before he switched the lamp in the room off and silently retreated to his own bedroom.

[Okay, so not really a Friends AU. I just liked the base plot for it. Sirius running away from his wedding like Rachel does and finding comfort from an old friend that he knew from school and hadn’t seen for years. Maybe in the future, I could add more to it, like do other parts from Friends… I have a few ideas but I’ll see how well this does and if anyone wants me to. It’s up to you guys! As usual, this has not been checked because I am a lazy piece of shit but oh well. Enjoy! Requests are open.

Side note - for those that don’t know, the Eurostar is a train that will take you from London to Paris. Gare du Nord is the train station that it takes you to in Paris!]
