double text me, annoy me, give me your attention. i love that shit.
bc i am super late to this and it is wednesday now oops. thanks @barkingatthemooninsteadofwriting and @madefortherain for the tag! loved your snippets <3
here is a third snippet from lotf ch 4 because yes, i am still working on that same chapter 😭 in my defense i’m working on another fic (with a deadline!) at the same time!!
Remus chooses to believe that he is simply growing as a person and learning to challenge his anxiety instead of letting it hold him back, rather than it having anything to do with how intense his feelings for Sirius are. Because they aren't. Intense. They're just...feelings. Regular feelings. The exact normal amount of feelings that should be expected on the way to a second date.
open tag bc i’ve tagged so many people in so many things recently. would love to see anyone’s snippets! <3
i wear my green cardigan and start thinking I'm Remus Lupin reincarnate
i dont accept any of this bullshit where remus is cold and harsh and cruel towards sirius in wolfstar fics bc he'd be head over heels, obsessed, pathetically in love !!! this is my pathetic loser lover boy remus lupin
*grabby hands* WOLFSTARBUCKS CAFE AU!!
ok there’s really not much else to say on this one, sooo snippet!!
i am absolutely not writing this one in chronological order so they are already together in this snippet but it is a getting together fic, they start out as strangers and everything.
also this is almost entirely unedited.
Remus attempts to pick up where he left off like everything is normal. Because it is. A minor accident, that’s all it was. Standard. Run-of-the-mill. Accidents happen.
His boyfriends seem to disagree.
They’re both standing from their stools, and James is already reaching out to take his hand. Their fingertips brush, and he yanks his own back as if the touch is what burned him.
“Moony, baby, come on, let me see,” James says softly.
“I’m fine! I need to finish your drinks,” he replies, a bit snappier than he intended. He’s just…embarrassed. And stressed.
i promise they’re happy he’s just being dramatic 😭😭
thank you to @brandileigh2003 for the tag :)

BTW i see these posts all the time like "ohhh i dont know what to comment on fics.." and every response is "keysmashes! or hearts!! anything works :3" and thats GREAT!! thats helpful!!
but: consider. if u genuinely like analyzing writing.. do u know ur just allowed to go through and quote your favorite parts and ramble abt what they mean to u and the author will LOSE IT WITH HYPE?
genuinely. i felt SO WEIRD the first time i did it.. but like. holy shit authors love it. its crack for authors. the first time i did it, it was on a fic that hadnt updated in half a year, give or take, and the author made 3 updates that month BECAUSE OF MY COMMENT.
LIKE. as an author every comment is INCREDIBLE!!! but also, dont feel like your comment has to be short or otherwise ur invasive or smth!! authors ADORE long comments more than ANYTHING.
i don't want to see AI art and i don't want to read AI stories. you know what i do want? typos. you using the wrong word because it sounds just like the right one. plot holes. shaky lines. pencil sketch marks you forgot to erase. a scribble in the corner you didn't crop out. you know why i want them? because they're yours. your typos, your scribbles, your plot holes, your shaky lines. you know why i want them to be yours? because i'm in love with you. i'm holding your hand right now and our pinkies are wrapped around each another. you're pointing out all the ways you're flawed and i'm kissing your forehead anyway
"Why didn't they just communicate?? They're so stupid!" Have you considered that communicating with someone you love and value and don't want to hurt is scary and that vulnerability takes practice and that perfect characters with perfect words make the most boring stories of all
HIIIIIII I saw your nonsexual wolfstarbucks headcanons and i was wondering if you had anymore???? It's okay if not but if you do i would LOVE them.
The only ones I can find are extremlely like sexualised which is fine but sometimes I just need a little bit of fluff cos yeah.
Have the best day <33333
omg HELLO this is such an exciting ask, ty for sending it!! i alwaysss have more wolfstarbucks thoughts so here’s some more i can think of rn!
in a situation where prongsfoot are dating and both want remus i think it’s very much just flirting with him really unsubtly, getting increasingly obvious as he continues to be oblivious. and normally remus would be really uncomfortable with his best friend who is dating his other best friend flirting with him! i’ve seen fics where they jointly decide they want remus and start flirting with him separately and personally i can’t see it. rem would be sooo uncomfortable and feel so guilty. but in my mind S & J decide to do it together. like they’re not flirting with him if they’re not both there. they’re cuddled up on the sofa with a movie when remus gets home from a late shift (or prefect rounds), and they invite him to cuddle (they even put him in the middle). he gets a new really well-fitting shirt and james tells him how good he looks while sirius is leaning on J’s shoulder, smiling and nodding. sirius offers him a massage when his joints/muscles are aching and remus is a bit hesitant but james is right there and seems fine with it?? they end up both helping tbh. sirius’s hands get tired bc literally remus’s entire body hurts so he’s like “james? you mind?” and james finishes up. anyways yeah both of them just flirting and taking care of him and being really affectionate but clearly doing it together so rem isn’t uncomfortable so much as obliviously confused. (he decides they’re just worried about him being lonely bc he’s been single for a long time and now S & J are dating so they’re trying to make sure he feels loved)
in a situation where none of them are dating before though, i think it either starts out as remus and his two boyfriends who are not dating each other (and then fall for each other) OR all three of them deciding to date each other at once, getting together neatly as a throuple. and either way in these scenarios i think remus would have a hard time adjusting to having two boyfriends. im picturing like, him being super anxious about going on a date or being physically affectionate with one of them while the other isn’t there. he kisses S or J once and the other walks in and he’s like,,acting like he got caught cheating basically and they’re like “babe. remus. please, calm down. did you forget we all agreed to this????” (he didn’t forget, he’s just nervous. he wants everything to be equal and them to know he loves them both the same and all that. they’re like “please calm down baby we know that, we don’t have to count dates and kisses though.”)
remus has like 3 stuffed animals that live on his bed at all times and gives them each a goodnight kiss every night and the first night they all spend together he’s embarrassed so he’s not gonna do it but he does end up doing it just out of habit/reflex and then he turns bright red and is sooo embarrassed but his bfs obviously find it extremely cute (and they obviously also demand goodnight kisses every night they’re together but that’s irrelevant to the stuffies)
they honestly genuinely like really cliche romantic dates, like going out for a nice dinner and/or a movie, but they hate that they’re never perceived as being in a romantic relationship since there’s three of them. when people make assumptions remus gets kinda flustered and doesn’t rly say anything, just complete silence, james sort of awkwardly fumbles out some sort of polite agreement without really directly agreeing, and sirius corrects them loudly and proudly, which embarrasses remus but he also loves it
they’ve made a lot of clumsy attempts at slow dancing around the dorm/apartment/wherever we’re imagining they live LMAO usually with remus squished in the middle, one of the others in front and the other behind him, it’s kind of just like a double hug really—remus hugs whoever’s in front of him and the other person just plasters themself to his back too. anyways it looks a bit silly but they’ve actually gotten the hang of all the feet and limbs and can do it without falling over now!
i saw a post somewhere and i cannot remember who or what platform but it was R & J braiding Sirius’s hair together, one on each side, and silently competing to make them neater and y e s i concur
when remus is upset and retreats into himself sirius just wants to baby him and let him do it and just give him cuddles and chocolate like “it’s okay baby you don’t have to talk about it” so james has to be the sensible one and gently coax remus into opening up a bit.
when sirius is upset and starts lashing out james just wants to snap back at him, and remus has to shut up his desire to hide away and be the sensible one to show sirius a bit of love and be patient.
when james is upset and tries to make jokes out of it to cover it up remus wants to smack him a bit (even though he himself is even WORSE at talking about feelings) so sirius is the one who has to indulge his jokes for a bit before pressing him a little to be honest and sincere
if it’s rainy none of those babies are leaving their house absolutely not they will spend the entire day in a cuddle pile on the bed with blankets and pillows and hot chocolate and tv. any excuse to just stay in and cuddle their boyfriends
james leaves little encouraging notes everywhere for both of them—in remus’s notebooks, in sirius’s bike helmet, on their nightstands, etc. and so they start doing it back to him too. all three of them have sappy collections of notes from the others saved up
adding onto sirius always being the middle spoon, if R & J are sitting somewhere together and S walks in he is 100% shoving his ass right in between them. one time he came home and they were kissing on the couch and he ran right over and squished himself in between them and when they looked down at him like “wtf” he just looked up with a smile
they have matching necklaces. james has a moon and a star, sirius has a moon and a sun, remus has a star and a sun.
they all refuse to get married until they can legally have a three way marriage. they’re not going to leave one of them out like that wtf (even if remus insists he’d be okay if they got married. even if he wasn’t lying about it, which he is).
okay i think that’s all i have for now, i hope you enjoy :))
alsjabdkskf thank you 😭💕
