Wait Minnie and Poppy adopting Remus I love it.
Give me Remus telling them that he was dating Sirius and Minnie isn’t surprised because Sirius tells her absolutely everything that she may as well have adopted him too and Poppy is absolutely not surprised because of the amount of time that she had noticed Sirius trying to sneak into the hospital wing during full moons and had just turned a blind eye.
Give me Remus still getting awful nightmares from his father letting him get attacked and walking out and Hope giving him up at an age where he could remember everything, and Poppy rushing in and comforting him.
Give me them helping move Remus into his first flat after school (with Sirius), and giving Sirius the ‘if you hurt him’ talk.
Give me Sirius nervously asking for their blessing to propose to Remus, at the same time that Remus nervously tells them that he was going to ask Euphemia and Fleamont for their blessing to propose to Sirius, and just biting back smiles.
Give me both of them giving toasts at the wedding, and when it came to the dance, they just did two, so they’d both get a chance.
Give me Remus desperately trying to navigate all of the distrust during the first war, but having parents that are his rocks, giving him advice.
Give me Minnie knocking some sense into Sirius when he starts to suspect Remus during the war by shouting at him for a few hours, and helping them heal and make it through everything.
Give me Remus crying to them when he realised that Sirius was drifting away, when his missions were draining the life out of him, when they lost Marlene.
Give me Minnie and Poppy noticing the inconsistencies in Peter’s stories when Remus would talk about it, and saving James and Lily’s lives.
Give me Remus being adopted by the two most supportive and caring people he had ever known.

Something I meant to post LAST Wednesday to make @theresthesnitch smile, but I'm rubbish and it took me a whole week to actually write it
‘Da-dddddddy!’ Sirius opened his eyes just in time to see a small, blue haired whirlwind throw himself across the room and launch himself onto the bed.
‘Ooof!’ Sirius winced as Teddy landed squarely on his stomach.
‘Sorry! I’m sorry!’ Harry appeared, hurrying into the room, scooping Teddy off the bed and swinging him onto his pyjama clad hip. ‘I’ve been trying to keep him out for about an hour. He woke up early.’
‘Woke up early,’ Remus said neutrally, not looking up from the book he was reading, sitting propped up in bed, ‘Or was woken up early, hmm?’
He looked up and raised an eyebrow at Harry, who shifted guiltily, a flush just visible on his dark skin.
‘Erm…’
‘Erm indeed.’
‘What you talking about?’ Sirius sat up too, reaching out to take Teddy back from Harry who looked like he very much wanted to bolt.
‘Your son,’ Remus snapped his book shut, ‘Has been sneaking boys in and out of the house. Again.’
‘I haven’t!’ Harry began protesting. ‘He was just-‘ but he cut off as Teddy’s hair shifted from blue to dark brown and his eyes faded to grey and now it was Sirius’ turn to raise an eyebrow at him.
‘Ugh! Traitor!’ Harry flopped down onto the end of the bed. ‘I can’t believe my baby brothers sold me out.’
‘Harry,’ Sirius tried to chastise, but you could hear the smile, ‘Why? It’s not like we mind.’
‘It was late,’ Harry tipped his head back. ‘We were texting and one thing led to another and-‘
‘Yes, I don’t think we need to hear the end of the that sentence that you very much Haz,’ Remus interjected, kicking his feet and jiggling Harry’s legs.
‘I was going to say we missed each other!’ Harry kicked back. ‘You’ve got such a dirty mind, Da.’
‘Missing each other. Huh.’ Sirius lifted his hands behind his head and leant back against the head board. ‘Is that what the kids are calling it these days?’
Harry rolled his eyes. ‘All we did was sleep, Dad.’
‘Ahh yes, sleep.’ Sirius smirked. ‘Your Da and I do a lot of missing each other and sleeping. Don’t we, darling?’
‘Oh my God Dad, can you not?!’ Harry looked revolted.
‘If you say so dear,’ Remus reached over and patted Sirius leg. Sirius snatched up his wrist and brought it up to him mouth, kissing softly over the veins.
‘No,’ Teddy hijacked the moment, popping up from under the covers. ‘You didn’t sleeped! You said it was hump day! You humped!’
‘Harry!’ Both Remus and Sirius exclaimed and Harry scrambled upright.
‘No!’
‘Harry,’ Sirius said again, ‘You can’t talk about you and Cedric,’ he glanced at Teddy who was looking between them all, a big smile on his face, ‘S-H-A-G-G-I-N-G with Teds around! He’s three!’
‘I know!’ Harry spluttered. ‘I didn’t!’
‘HUMP DAY! HUMP DAY! HUMP DAY!’ Teddy chanted gleefully, bouncing up and down.
‘Well this proves otherwise!’
Harry dragged a hand down his face. ‘This is a fucking nightmare!’
‘For fuck’s sake, Haz!’ Remus had to shout over Teddy. ‘No swearing!’
‘You literally just swore!’
‘What? No I didn’t!’
‘You did, love,’ Sirius said, trying to tug Teddy downwards.
‘Oh for fucks sake!’
‘Moony!’
‘Da!’
‘HUMP DAY! HUMP DAY! HUMP DAY!’
‘Teddy!’ Sirius shouted, ‘Stop!’
Teddy fell silent a moment before saying quickly, ‘Humpday,’ once more.
‘Wednesday,’ Harry said. ‘When Teds asked why Cedric was here I told him it was because it was Wednesday and Wednesday is hump day.’
‘Why would you tell a three year old that, Haz?’ Sirius looked just as confused and affronted as before but Remus let out a noise of comprehension and sunk back into the pillows.
‘It’s a muggle saying,’ he told Sirius. ‘It means you’re halfway through the working week.’
‘No it does not!’ Sirius looked between Remus and Harry. ‘Really?’
‘Yeh,’ Harry said.
Sirius screwed his face up. ‘Merlin, muggles are weird. Sorry, Hazzie,’ he added, ‘I should have listened.’
Harry shrugged, ‘And I should have been quieter when letting Cedric out this morning.’
‘Yes, well,’ Remus began but Harry was quicker.
‘Come on trouble!’ He swung Teddy up off the bed, landed him one little foot on top of each of his own. ‘Why don’t you and me go out for breakfast. What do you say? Some man-on-man time?’
‘YAY!’ Teddy cheered, holding both of Harry’s hands tight and they slowly walked across the room together, Teddy still standing on Harry’s feet.
Remus looked torn between proud and frustrated. ‘It’s a good job you’re the worlds best big brother,’ he called across to Harry, who looked smug as he realised he was about to get away with it.
‘Love you Da!’
Remus huffed good naturedly and next to him Sirius chuckled.
‘Have a good time you two!’ He waved at Teddy who blew him a kiss. ‘Don’t rush back, H. Da and I have got a bit of missing each other to do.’
‘NO!’ Harry slammed the bedroom door shut and Sirius burst out laughing.
‘You’re a menace.’ Remus told him, rolling over onto his side and tugging Sirius down with him.
‘Good.’ Sirius said, resting their foreheads together. ‘Now then, Mr Black. It seems we have the house to ourselves.’
‘That we do,’ Remus inched forwards so their bodies were pressed together.
‘Mmm,’ Sirius rolled his hips, smiling at the audible gasp Remus let escape. ‘How about you and me celebrate Hump Day.’
