0.5% "James wants to bang his head against a wall. He wants to take Sirius by the shoulders and shake him [..] He wants to knock their heads together for their mutual stupidity about each other, because they do this all the time. They fight and go into a strop, bickering and quarreling like an old married couple, and then they pretend it never even happened the next day.

wolfstar = idiots in love (even james knows- lmao)"

30.27% ""Well, what is being queer?" Remus murmurs, and they all stare at him. "I just mean, it's not… It's not actions, or choice. It's something we're born with, isn't it?"

"I think it's about—about freedom of the soul," Mary announces, taking a deep breath. "You're right, Remus, it's something that's—that's individual to us, but can bring us together, and there's a freedom in being who you are.""

James releases a deep, shaky breath as he blinks rapidly. his mind feeling like it's limping a little, a bit wounded. His voice is a harsh croak as he says, "I just never feel like I'm enough."

[..] He holds his breath as he slips his pinky finger in the crevice of James', where it's slightly curved, and he links them together as he exhales and confesses, so softly, "I've always been yours."

67.61% "Yes, well, Remus is very aware that he's being stupid about Sirius. He always is. He always has been, so this isn't really a new thing, honestly. At this point, he's used to it."

"Me," Sirius confesses in a whisper. "Aren't you, Remus?"

"I'm not scared of you, Sirius," Remus says softly, practically speaking against his mouth.
