It feels like when people talk about polyam!Marauders it's more like they're talking about Wolfstar and prongsfoot. And that leaves Remus and James feeling more like friends who share a boyfriend (and then in most cases you throw an X reader in there)
PLEASE CAN WE TALK MORE ABOUT REMUS AND JAMES?! DO THEY EVEN HAVE A SHIP NAME???
Like... If Remus is the moon.
and sirius is the Stars.
James is their sun. Let Remus tell James how important he is to him.
"you're the sun to my moon."
Let James recite that as a mantra when he's holding Remus after a full moon. "Moon to my sun, our moony, my moony."
"yeah. I know, Bambi."
PLEASE GUYS I'M DYING HERE.
(AND WHILE WE'RE TALKING ABOUT IT WHERE IS LILY?! BITCHES ADD HER TO THE GODDAMN EQUATION!!)

Thinking about James/Remus and seriously questioning why it's not a thing cause
1) the whole sun/moon lore I was talking about earlier
2) their shipname would be somn like "moonchaser" or "sunreader" or somn
3) it fits right into the running gag that James has a thing for people being mean to him
4) imagine all the possible angst mhmm mhmm Remus pining over James, finding out he likes his best friend, finding out she likes him back, losing him again and again ooooohhhhh just
5) but they're also perfect cause all Remus ever needs is to be loved and all James knows is to love someone else
6) ok but leave the angst, focus on the fluff. The possibilities omg friends to lovers just this time (minus all the usual angst that comes in wolfstar) and they're both just dumb oblivious idiots in love and it's so cute
7) thinking about all of this now I think what you said is right, people don't ship Remus with anyone other than Sirius but I think that's cause Sirius actually doesn't have many ships left then? Cause think about it like this: Sunreader, Bartylus, Marylily, Evan and Emmeline, Panda and Xeno, where does that leave Sirius? Sure Pete is there but...
8) ooooh ok going down this pipeline, for your consideration: Peter and Sirius. Omg it would make the "Sirius put in trial instead of Peter" thing sooooo much more ansgty ohhoo my brain is reeling rn
9) ok focusing back on moonchaser. They would make such a cute couple honestly. James would read all the books Remus reads and leaves lil doodles for him to find later. He would go to all the quidditch practices he can to support his bf. And he would right poetry and stuff about how hot James is.
10) ohhh They would share glasses omggg poor Remus grows up thinking everyone has shit vision then one day he wears James's as a joke and voila the world in HD
I'm so ngl, your influence on my brain has become on the best influences it has ever had cause omg all this potential all this angst and fluff I love this new me mhmm mhmm
hsirbdij omggggg I love this sm!!! thank you for sharing your brain with me.
sunreader sounds so gorgeous. I'm going insane. I love love LOVE the name!
1) yeah are literally the sun and the moon! they are perfect!
3) lmao. so true. I love the idea of remus being super sarcastic towards james and james swoons at every mean comment and tries very hard not to (he fails miserably)
4) urghhhhh not the unrequited feelings while having to be a supportive bestie trope (my beloved). I can imagine how mad it drives remus to watch them like each other, but being to scared to admit it. imagine the heartbreak when remus sees harry alias the combination of his parents
5) yesss. remus needs someone to love him even through all of his flaws, someone who isn't his parents and james who is literally the embodiment of love
6) "everyone can see it, but them" trope fr. it's them idfk
7) you make a fair point, but there are sooooooo many characters living in the marauders characters that no one ever uses. you could ship sirius with so many characters that no one ever talks abt (I'm currently working on a post with all the characters that I could find so that they're all in one place)
8) peter and sirius my loves <3 no one talks about them (me included whoops-). they have such a big angst potential that people just seem to be ignoring (once again bc most people refuse to leave the wolfstar bubble and just refuse to ship peter with anyone in general)
9) they would be the definition of tooth rotting fluff. they would make everyone sick with how sweet they are. couple goals fr
10) remus is me fr. the day I got my glasses was eye-opening lmao
glad to see that I have this kind of effect on people. I said it to you before but I'll say it again: welcome to the way more funnier side of being a multishipper hehehehe
also: I think I'm in love with you. marry pls, I'm begging 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 (/j... unless)

Blackeclipse for the soul
Soulmate au
No idea how long this is
Part 1; Part 2; Part 3; Part 4; Part 5; Part 6; Part 6.5; Part 8
Remus/James/Regulus (Reggie isn't mentioned till Part 2)
I would make this a longer, more in-depth fic...but then I'd never finish it
Most people have their Soul Marks on their hands or arms. They are the lucky ones. You can usually see it appear as you shake their hand or whatever.
Even people who have them higher up on their biceps or chest from running into each other can usually see who they ran into, can feel the Mark rise to the surface.
Very few who have a Mark don't know who their Soulmate is. The people who were jostled in a crowd and didn't feel it forming. Those who met so many people at a time that it was impossible to identify the correct one.
Remus Lupin had never been lucky.
It was in his third year at Hogwarts that Madam Pomfrey brought up the Mark on his shoulder. She had asked him why he wasn't using their soul bond to help with the pain and recovery.
At his confusion, she had produced a mirror. Sure enough, on the back of his right shoulder, there was a moon inside of a sun. It looked as big as his palm and was very clearly a Soul Mark.
Poppy was surprised he didn't know it was there. Apparently, she had seen it the first Full he had spent in the castle and assumed he knew. It was rare that someone didn't know, so she hadn't thought to ask.
In a matter of seconds, Remus had resigned himself to the knowledge that he would never know his Soulmate.
There was no way to track your Soulmate until the bond was complete. So, short of posting a picture of his mark around the castle, there really wasn't anything he could do. And that was, of course, assuming they even went to Hogwarts.
It wasn't until two years later, almost to the day, that his luck changed.
~~~
He was roused by someone gently running their fingers through his hair. He was lying on his side and definitely in the Shrieking Shack.
"Hey, Moons." It was James. Remus didn't even need to open his eyes to see the tired smile on his friend's face. "Poppy will be here soon. We have to go, but we'll meet you in the hospital wing, okay?"
Remus nodded, or, at least, he tried to. He wasn't sure how successful he was considering his head felt like it had been stuffed with cotton, then used as a bludger.
Still, James must have gotten the message because he heard the other boy stand and move away. There was a soft chorus of 'bye's and 'see you in a bit's as his friends left.
It had been a success, then. The Wolf hadn't attacked his friends while they held their animagi forms. Despite his best efforts, Remus felt tears rolling sideways down to his ear.
He couldn't remember last night, but the knowledge that he hadn't been alone was enough. And, as he slowly came further into consciousness, he realized that he wasn't torn and bloody.
He didn't know if this was because his friends had already healed him, or if they had stopped him from hurting himself in the first place.
Before he could start worrying about if he had hurt his friends instead, he heard Poppy coming up from the tunnel. Remus pushed himself upright and looked over his shoulder in time to see her step through the doorway.
She helped him dress, stand, and make his way back through the tunnel. By the time they reached the castle, he almost felt better. Poppy clearly noticed the change, but she kept her comments—and suspicions—to herself.
He hadn't been settled into the hospital wing for more than five minutes when James came in with a plate of food. At this, an alarm bell went off in Remus' brain, and it took him a moment to realize why.
James was alone.
And he looked nervous.
Panic gripped Remus' heart and it must have shown on his face because James ran the last few steps to his bed.
He set the food aside and took Remus' face in both hands. "Hey, hey. Everyone's fine. No one's hurt. It was a success! We're all okay! I promise!" James' words were hushed but adamant.
Remus searched his face for any sign of a lie. Upon finding none, he slowly let out a breath. "But- Then...Why..." Remus wasn't sure how to phrase his question. He wasn't used to being at a loss for words, but his heart was still thumping painfully in his chest.
James, sitting on his bed now, stoked his thumbs over Remus' cheekbones. He smiled shyly at Remus for a moment before, "Because... I have something to tell you." At the renewed fear in Remus' eyes and the way he brought his own hands up to hold James' forearms, he hurried on. "It's not bad! It's nothing bad, just... Strange? No, not strange. Um... Unexpected?"
Remus' fear almost completely dissolved into confusion as James struggled. "James, if it's not bad, why are you nervous? And why did you have to come alone to tell me?" His voice was rough and weak, but he really couldn't take much more suspense.
James paused, took a deep breath—hands still on Remus' face—looked him in the eyes, and blurted, "We'reSoulmatesandIdidn'tknowhowtotellyoubecauseyouneversaidanythingandIdidn'tknowhowyou'dreact"
Remus froze.
He stopped breathing.
His brain short-circuited.
His heart stopped beating.
Well, that may be an exaggeration, but everything after 'We're Soulmates' was lost on him.
They were roommates. They had been roommates for YEARS now! How did they not know? How had none of them ever noticed? How did James know now? What changed? Had James really never seen his Mark before?
An eternity passed before James quietly whispered, "Remus?"
He startled, eyes focusing back on James. "Where?"
He didn't need to elaborate; James was already moving. He stood and unbuttoned his trousers. Out of habit, Remus looked away.
And then it hit him. Of course! Remus looked back and, sure enough, there was the matching Mark. James was holding his pants in such a way that the Mark was visible, but his crotch wasn't. Because there it was. On James' right hip bone, low enough to be covered by his pants and close enough to his crotch that Remus had always averted his eyes.
He had heard James and Sirius talking about it in first year, but Remus didn't know he had one then. And by the time Poppy had brought up his Mark, he had all but forgotten about James'. His immediate resignation to never finding his soulmate had kept him from telling his friends at all. He also assumed, like Poppy had with him, that they already knew it was there.
They both jumped when Remus' fingers brushed the Mark. He hadn't meant to reach out, but he was a moth to a flame. His fingers tingled as they brushed James' skin; the Mark turning silver under his touch.
Poppy cleared her throat and they both jumped again. James quickly pulled his trousers back up and Remus firmly set his hands in his lap. But she was smiling at them.
Well, she was frowning, but the arch of her eyebrow and the look in her eye showed clear amusement. "Please keep your trousers on Mr. Potter. This is not the lavatory."
James nodded quickly, but both boys smiled at her as she came over. She had James join Remus on the bed so she could show them how to use their bond to heal each other.
Because their marks were in such odd places, she had them put their hands over each other's Marks; on top of their clothes. So really, James just put his arm around him, and Remus laid on his side, hand on James' hip.
By the time they were settled and Poppy was done explaining, Remus was fast asleep.

my favorite Remus by far is Remus who is always just a little bit off; never fitting or slotting perfectly in anywhere with anyone. He insists to himself that he doesn't mind, that to fit into conformity would be killing off every part of him that makes him interesting, and maybe eventually he starts to actually believe it.
it all begins to seep out of his many cracks as his mind moves too quickly, and he can't stop the outpour of tears that doesn't even phase James anymore, as he wordlessly tucks Remus against his chest with a purposefully nailed hands raking gentle strokes along his back. Remus begs for an answer, asking if he truly means it when the boys say they love him, and that it isn't just some cruel prank or plan to be spared from werewolf attacks, and James wishes he could feed the love into his brain because words don't always seem to reach him. He doesn't mean to be the insecure friend who needs purpose, honest. These breakdowns occur about every other month, when the bottle gets too full and bubbles over.
this isn't necessarily meant to be moonchaser/rem+jam, but you could read it as such. Honestly I didn't even think of that as a ship but i think after i post this imma look for fics cuz that sounds so cute. I see James as the warm bodied friend, who doesn't hesitate to comfort and wrap himself around his friends when they're struggling, but he's not the best with loving words so it's soft scratches. I think Sirius is too straightforward to be able to deal with the melts, and peter freezes anytime he sees tears.

I’ve read a number of fake dating fics, James and Regulus, Remus and Regulus, Remus and Sirius, but I have never seen a Remus and James fake dating fic and that’s disappointing bc it would be so funny. Sirius and Regulus would loose their minds. The one thing that could unite the Black Brothers is a hatred of James and Remus’ “relationship.”

Remus and Sirius both hate their scars. Remus looks at his, at the big silver slash on his face and all the ridges littering his skin and all he sees is an ugly monster. Sirius looks at the cuts on his calves and back given by his mother and the two scars on his chest that took him too long to get, and feels ugly and unworthy of love.
They lay in bed together one gloomy afternoon, hand in hand, not speaking but quietly crying. They’re both tucked tightly under the covers so as many scars are covered as possible.
James gets home and finds them like this, he knows what they’re feeling, why they’re crying, and he knows they won’t be able to lift eachother up. They both find their own scars ugly, so why would the other believe them if they say someone else’s aren’t?
But James isn’t scarred. Not really. He has a few from quidditch and mucking about as a child, but none of his scars hold the gravity that Remus and Sirius’ do. Remus’ scars are a reflection of the very thing inside him he hates that comes out every full moon and scarres him more. And Sirius’ scars show his abuse, what his mother did to him all his life and how much more she hurt him when he told her he wasn’t her perfect daughter and in fact a man, and the scars on his chest still make him doubt himself from time to time. He looks at James and Remus and compares himself, he doesn’t feel good enough, he thinks he’ll never be enough.
When James finds them tucked into bed like this, he quietly undresses from his work gear and crawls over the quilt and kisses them both gently, promises they’re beautiful and tells each of them exactly what he needs. He peels back the covers and kisses each and every one of their scars, pouring all of his love into them. He lays there between them and traces his fingers over raised skin and smiles, he tells them they’re brave, and loved, and beautiful. He promises each that they are so so loved.
It takes a few hours, but eventually they both come around and are smiling, showering James all the love they feel from him and smothering him in their affections.
More often than not, James comes home to find at least one of them hurting, and he knows he’s the only one who can heal their heart for a little while. But James doesn’t mind, he loves taking care of those he loves. He adores it. He loves making those of his smile and feel whole again, and he really does love their scars, pressing his lips to all he can reach and tracing fingertips over to feel the raised skin.
And it’s okay, because when James has bad days, he has both Remus and Sirius to help pick up the pieces. They’ll find him rotting in bed and hold him, kiss him, whisper sweet nothings into his ear. They’ll pamper him and wait on him hand and foot, and make him feel like he does belong here. He belongs with them, where they make him feel safe and warm.
He cries into their necks or shoulders or chests, and they run their fingers through his hair and kiss him wherever their lips can reach. He traces a finger over their pretty scars and feels a little more grounded.
He knows those scars weigh heavy on his lovers. They haunt them, and they haunt him too. Each and every one of those scars hurt, they come from a place of negativity. But without those scars Sirius and Remus wouldn’t be the Sirius and Remus that James gets to hold today.
Those scars have shaped them into the brave, gentle, caring people they are, and James loves them. He lays with them late at night and feels whole.
And sometimes, on the good nights, Sirius and Remus will lay in bed and each trace their fingertips over the little bumps and pale scars on James’ skin, and they’ll kiss them, and call them beautiful, just like he always does for them.
Remus and Sirius may not love their scars, but James does. James loves every part of them, and he always will.
