Remus insisting he’s fine to hang out with everyone days before the full moon generally leads many embarrassing photos of him failing to stay awake and lots of bets going around on how long it takes before he’s completely passed out in some ridiculous spot
Just imagine if Sirius and Remus had raised Harry, together…
-He reminds them of James and Lily so much, it helps them heal after their loss.
-Tonks being the cool vodka aunt that Remus is not really sure is a good babysitter, but who Sirius trusts fully.
– “Moony he’s turning four years!” “Yeah so what?” “WE. NEED. A. BIG.BIRTHDAY. PARTY. NOW.”
– Sirius turning into a dog to chase sneaking journalists and paparazzis away. Soon no one dares to come near because of the Lupin-Black couple’s crazy dog.
– “Why do we never see mr. Black going out with the dog?” “Oh yeah, he’s… he’s… a little scared by it. He’s scared by so many things…” (If looks could kill, Remus would have been killed by “his dog”)
-Sirius trying to cook without using magic, but failing again and again. Remus and Harry is too kind to point it out, leading to Sirius nearly burning the house down in an attempt to make some fancy food he thinks he is capable of making.
-Molly and Remus giving each other knitting tips (because of course Remus knits)
-Minerva McGonagall being equally horrified and happy by the thought of James Potter’s son raised by Sirius “I invented a spell to turn the whole gryffindor common room pink for three laughs” Black and Remus “I didn’t stop him” Lupin.
-Harry having someone who also lost someone important to them to help him managing the grief when Cedric gets killed.
-Harry being loved and supported by his dads.
-Aaaand most importantly two gay wizards showing up at Vernon Dursley’s doorstep explaining that they want Harry to meet his cousin and aunt and uncle, if that’s possible? And it’s just too much to Vernon who just sits in his chair silent the rest of the day, while Harry and Dudley plays and Petunia exchanging practical advice with Sirius and Remus.
James: So now I’m supposed to do anything that Remus does? What if he jumped off a cliff?
McGonagall: If Mr. Lupin were to jump off a cliff, he would have done his due diligence regarding the height of the cliff, the depth of the water, and the angle of entry. So, yes, if you see Mr. Lupin jump off a cliff, by all means, jump off a cliff.
