“Allo! This is Black sperm donor, you wank it, we bank it! How can I help you today?”

 

“Uhm..”

 

“Merde.. Maman, je ne sais pas comment tu as eu mon numéro, mais tu vas le regretter. Crois-moi, à la seconde où Effie entendra parler de ça, elle-”

 

“It's Remus.”

 

“Du-Uhm.. Fuck.”

 

“This is Sirius, right?”

 

“Y-Yes! Holy shit.”

 

“Pads? Who are you talking to?”

 

“Just.. Fuck. No one James, I am going up to the dorm.”

 

“Is this a bad time?”

 

“NO! I-I mean..”

 

*snicker* “You can do this..”

 

“Stop teasing me will you?”

 

“And why would I do that?”

 

“Because I am the light of your life.”

 

“Bold claim Mr. Black.”

 

“Haha…”

 

“...”

 

“...”

 

“...”

 

“Your-”

 

“Do-”

 

“Fuck- Shit. Sorry, you just surprised me.”

 

“I surprised myself.”

 

“Your voice.. It's nice.”

 

“Oh yeah?”

 

“Yeah.”

 

“Yours is too. You weren't lying.”

 

“About what?”

 

“The accent. Can't imagine what Regulus sounds like, considering his is more deep than yours and all..”

 

*giggle* “It's so deep..”

 

“W-What?”

 

“Your voice, I mean. You could've told me I was sending letters to a roadman, I would have made myself seem more manly.”

 

“You could've told me I was talking to a royal, I would've tried to seem more polite.”

 

“You are just a little comedian aren't you?”

 

“Please, nothing about me is little.”

 

“HA-AHAH”

 

*snickers* “You alright there mate?”

 

“Yeah, hah, just didn't expect you to say something like that.”

 

“You will get used to it.”

 

“Will I?”

 

“I hope so.”

 

“You realize what this means, right Moony?”

 

“What does it mean, Sirius?”

 

“I now have your phone number and can call you whenever I want.”

 

“Do that and I will kill you.”

 

“Rawr. Kinky.”

 

“You are not any better over the phone then you are over letters.”

 

“Thank you Moony!”

 

“Wasn't a compliment, Sirius.”

 

“...”

 

“...”

 

“I like how my name sounds on your tongue.”

 

“Sirius Sirius Sirius.”

 

“Remus Remus Remus. You sound so Welsh.”

 

“Really? That's so strange. I wonder why I sound Welsh. Maybe it's because I have lived here my whol-”

 

“Alright alright whatever. No need to be so saucy.”

 

“Saucy? I scorn you, scurvy companion. Thou dare to-”

 

“Fermez-la avant que je ne vous oblige à le faire. Gros malin.”

 

“I- Uh-”

 

“Cat got your tongue?”

 

Rydych chi'n swnio mor hardd. Rwyf am syrthio i gysgu i'ch llais .”

 

“Tua vox est tam parum pudici, ut moriar.”

 

“Show off.”

 

“Tosser.”

 

“What did you say?”

 

“I'm not tellinggggg!!”

 

“Are you seven? Feels like I am talking to a child.”

 

“Are you eighty? I seem to recall that we are calling on your house phone because you refuse to buy a real phone.”

 

“Touche. Now tell me what you said.”

 

“Only if you tell me what you said.”

 

“Not happening.”

 

“Fine.”

 

“Fine.”

 

“...”

 

“...”

 

“...”

 

“This is easier than I thought it would be.”

 

“What is?”

 

“Talk to you.”

 

“We have been talking for a month already.”

 

“Yeah but.. I can actually hear you this time.”

 

“You like what you hear?”

 

“You know I do.”

 

“It's nice to actually get a response. Instead of having to wait 3-4 days.”

 

“Hah, I agree. Now I can read your letters in your voice too.”

 

“We should do this every week.”

 

“You'd really want to do that?”

 

“You know I would. I really lik-”

 

“Oi, Sirius! Sorry to cockblock, but we have practice!”

 

“Merde. Shut up James! I will be out in a second!”

 

“Nope, no more phone sex.”

 

“Hey!! You bitch give that ba-”

 

“Hello? Is this Remus?”

 

“This is he..”

 

“Hi Remus!! It's me, James!”

 

“Yeah, I heard..”

 

“I am in the bathroom right now with Sirius’ phone, but I need you to listen very closely when I tell you this.”

 

“Right, go on.”

 

“You hurt him, I kill you. Understand?”

 

“Uh- Y-Yeah.. I understand.”

 

“Great! I think we will get along just swimly! Sirius, here is your boyyyfrie-”

 

“Oh shuddup.. Sorry about him, Moony.”

 

“It's alright. I will let you go now.”

 

“Yeah.. Bye Moons!”

 

“Bye Sirius.”

Dear Remus Joseph Lupin,

 

Writing a real name here feels weird. I doubt Joseph is correct, but I asked Pete for a name starting with J and that's what he said. Unless it's correct, then it was my idea and I am just really smart.

 

I enjoy Oasis. I know that Pete likes it more than I do though. Honestly, Blur is SO much better. Damon Albarn is such a babe. I just like the rugged look on men. I guess Tom isn't that bad after all.. ‘Am I alright?’ he asks, after I recommend Mitski and Phoebe Bridgers. What do you think the answer to that is, love? Maybe I'll get into it later, but those songs are just so good that even if I was happy, I would still listen to them.

 

Tight jeans, huh? Lucky for you, my Halloween costume consists of tight leather pants. Very tight. Might cockblock me from hooking up if anyone worthy shows. Maybe I will send a picture of my arse ;) Mary says she would hit it if I wasn't gay. 

 

You are SUCH a sap Moony. Love on Christmas is your biggest dream? I doubt anyone would ever be able to deal with me for that long. I think I am going to be single my whole life. Staying with someone is such a commitment. Being friends is so much easier. I think you have to be good friends with someone first to date them, but no one has gotten to know me that much that is interested in dating me. I am only 17, but so many people around me are finding love. Effie and Monty met when they were 16!! When's it going to be my turn.. 

 

Technically, we can talk everyday now that you have a house phone. Maybe in 10 years you will unlock a flip phone. 

 

Now that we called, did I sound so hot that you combusted? You certainly sounded hot, I almost got a hard on from hearing you. Just joking. You do have a nice voice, though. We did have a few mind blanks, but you seemed very.. Confident. You are also probably good at faking it. I usually am too, but you just did something to me.

 

I am sucking on a lollipop as I write this letter. My mouth gets very watery around it, and I am scared I will drool onto the paper. I almost bit my tongue at practice on Thursday, and it hurt so bad. Getting drunk on Halloween will be terrifying, what if drunken me bites my tongue off?

 

Effie and Monty are me and James’ parents, you are correct. Euphemia and Fleamont Potter. The best people to be put on this Earth. Reg still calls them Mrs and Mr Potter, he's so posh. He can't help it though, it's sad to watch. Whenever one of them lifts their hand near him he flinches. I bet by the time it's Christmas he will be better. 

 

‘Blah blah blah I am an old man that doesn't need a phone because I am too cool’. Looooseeerrrrrrrr.

 

Lyall and Hope. Made Remus. What a beautiful family. Hope is a pretty name. I guess Lyall wanted to continue the ‘wolf’ thing. All makes sense now..

 

I am totally going to guess the middle name first. There is no way you are getting mine. I am already composing a list of names that yours could be. There aren't many words that connect to ‘wolf’ that start with a J though.

 

I am not leaving anytime soon, Moons. You know too much. Plus, you are cool and have good music taste. Don't feel pressured to touch me though. I will live. I just want you to feel safe and comfortable with me. The thought of me making you uncomfortable probably makes me feel worse than you would feel.

 

You would be correct about the shirtless part, but, all my self-inflicted things are on my thighs. Safely hidden. James is still suspicious because I have been wearing PJ pants to bed instead of just boxers. He is oblivious, so I should be fine.

 

Reading about you getting excited over DVDs makes me happy. Just imagining giant Remus squealing over finding some good movies. I looked up ‘Before Sunrise’ and apparently it's one of Marys’ favorites. Barty laughed like a maniac when I asked what ‘The Mask’ was and then left. He never finishes conversations or sentences. It's like he always has better things to do. 

 

‘My Own Private Idaho’.... SO SAD!!! Like what do you mean ‘i love you and you don't pay me’??!?!?!?!?! SUCH an amazing movie, I think you will like it. Keanu and River are so attractive. Also, Reg is letting you borrow his ‘Mysterious Skin’ DVD, so don't damage it and send it back with your next letter, or he will get mad.

 

I have a lot of scars too. Maybe more than you. They have been adding up since I was 7. Mainly on my torso and legs. Torso is all from my parents, used to be their favorite punishment. If James found out, he would be disappointed in me. I already know it. It's happened so many times, he tries to hide it and be comforting, but I can tell he's disappointed with me. He cares too much about everything. If James found out, Effie and Minnie would too. I still remember the first time Effie saw the scars on my legs. It was near the time I ran away. I was still so shocked that I could barely move. She was stripping me for a bath and saw them. She dropped to her knees and cried. James had to explain it to me. Minnie found out from her, and now she's so protective. Whenever word catches on about me acting weird in a class, I get called up and interrogated. 

 

I am not telling Effie. I don't need that right now. She is so caring, and similar to your situation, she has too much on her plate. She is a doctor and always busy. She doesn't need my annoying mental problems. But hey, that's why we have each other, right? Maybe next time you feel like hurting yourself, you could call me and I will distract you. If you do it, I will too. For each other.

 

Poor Remus. No porn.. Couldn't relate though. I have this thing called a phone with unlimited internet access. If you really need help, just call me ;)

 

Love love love. Love. I want love. Real love. Don't tell the punk-rock police or I will cry. Abusive parents ruined me. Like I am seven, I love you. 

 

Don't be jealous of Marls. Don't get me wrong, she is so hot, but also so lesbian. Me and Pete have a theory that she is crushing on Dorcas. They are ‘rivals’ and ‘hate each other’, but we saw Marls staring at her at the last game, and it was not a look of hatred.

 

Pete is also obsessed with this guy in our classes. He has a real arse face, but apparently he ‘smells good’. So stupid. Names Gilderoy, who names their kid ‘Gilderoy??’ His parents must really hate him.

 

If you ever need somewhere to say, when things at home get rough and all, then go to James’. His parents welcome anyone, they always wanted multiple kids. It won't be a burden or anything.

 

Bob is so fucking sick. I wish I was Bob. I am kidnapping Bob.

 

YES!! Save a horse, ride a cowboy indeed. I bet you will be a sexy cowboy.

 

First love late spring is so depressing. I love it. Bury me at Makeout creek is one of the best modern albums ever. Mitski is a god. 

 

King Remus. I would like to see you naked with a cape on. Must be a nice view.

 

Don't know who Ben Barnes is. Looked him up, I am more attractive. Same with Rodrick, except I know him. I literally am Rodrick. However, I am still more attractive! Seems to be the case often though.

 

Saaappppppp.

 

I have a soccer game today. Against Hufflepuff. We will win, but it is still scary. Most of the school will be watching. So much pressure. Stresses me out honestly. I can tell James is stressed too. He's doing that thing where he just walks around the dorm and shakes his hands. Occasionally he will check his phone, but no one texts him so I don't know why he is. 

 

I am just scared that I will fail my team. Me and Gideon (kid on the team) got into a row on Friday. I punched him and he hit me back. I was on top of him and about to break his nose but James pulled me off. He didn't talk to me the rest of the night. This morning he did though, it was scary, almost didn't sleep. But then he called me over and we cuddled and got some hours in. The games in 2 hours, and Pete is off smoking with Barty and Evan. He was supposed to be our water boy, but I dont think Madam Hooch will let him on the field.

 

The material of my shorts keep rubbing up on my scars, and it itches. I just hope they don't ride up too high. With James there and all. The party is gonna be fun. Maybe I will call you after, if we win. 

 

‘Ignore my messy writing’, Moony, Love, your writing is always messy. 

 

If you could make out with any celebrity, who would it be?  I dont know honestly. No celebrities stand out to me enough for me to want to make out with them.

Do you like jewelry?  slut 4 jewelry

Silver or gold? silver of course!

What would your dream house be?  a nice flat with a loft. music is always playing. with the ones I love the most. a little bit of everyone all around.

What is love to you?  laughter, not that fake pity laughs. but real, heartful laughs! i just love laughing

What is your favorite quote?  i don't really have one yet. right now I can't stop thinking about this one I heard in this Jeff Buckley song. “Just like the ocean, always in love with the moon.” Chills. Maybe I’ll ask Evans for her CD burner and send some songs over. You know what, I will text her right now for her to bring it up for me. I will text the Hogwarts GC with all my friends and have each send in a song for you. Such a smart guy I am.

 

Raw dogging the questions because James is getting too anxious and I need to cuddle him before he dies.

 

How big are you? Haha.. Just kidding

Favorite shoes you own?

What was your last dream?

Do you have any talents?

Whats one of your pet peeves?

Gold or silver?

Favorite candy??

 

Okay, wish me luck at my game. Bye Moons.

 

Love,

    Sirius O. Black

Dear Sirius Octavious Black,

 

You are right. That did feel weird. Octavious was the most ‘outlandish’ name I could think of. I need to brainstorm more often. You were not correct. Guess again.

 

Of course you like Blur more. You are so gay. In a derogatory way. Just kidding.. But not really. Blur is for twinks and Oasis is for cool people like me. ‘Love’??? I will never admit it, but I might have blushed. Okay so I just admitted it. I am so high right now. I hate myself.

 

Yeah yeah what's wrong with being sappy? I can't help it! I just love love. Watching people love is so pretty. It makes me so happy. Don't tell the depressed police. I haven't found love yet either. Platonic yeah, but it's not the same. Maybe we can love eachother so we arent as lonely. Tonks has started talking to someone apparently.

 

You did sound hot. You sounding so shy made me feel more confident. I am glad you like my voice. Lils makes me read her to sleep and so does my Ma. You can be next. I can talk you to sleep. I wish I was that lollipop. Just kidding.

 

Wolf. Awoooooooo. Wolf McWolf. 

 

You are definitely guessing my name first. But I don't care. I would let you win anything if you just asked. I'm not leaving you either.

 

Doing it on your thighs is creative. I should've thought of that. A part of me hopes that James finds out about this, so you can get help. You need it. So do I. I really hope you aren't a snitch.

 

Barty seems cool. Very annoying though. I am very patient. You seem impatient. We really complete each other, Siri.

 

I cried after watching ‘My Own Private Idaho’. While crying, I rewinded it and watched it again. It's so good. It took me a few hours to finish ‘Mysterious Skin’. It was kinda triggering. Made my eyes open up, I felt so seen. I wonder if Professor Garmon did shit to any other kids. Maybe I was special.

 

I ‘siriusly’ doubt you have more scars than me. I have so many, they ruin my whole body. People quiver when they see me. I hate myself so much. I hate how I look, I wish I was different. You will be scared when you see me too. If you ever do.

 

My Ma reacted way differently than yours. Me, her, and Da were all swimming during the summer and she saw them. I thought I was being slick, thought they would blend in with the others. But they obviously looked different. She knew right away. Da used to cut himself too. They ignored me for a week after. Called me ungrateful and shit. After a week my Ma apologized, blaming it on the shock. Da never did. I guess he knew I didn't need their pity.

 

I need to know when you are joking about things like this. If you aren't, maybe I will call you if I need a good wank. I probably shouldn't be writing to you while I am this high. I will regret this.

 

Go Pete! And Marls!! All your friends sound hot.

 

Bob scratched me on my face. Hurts really bad. He is being naughty. But right now, he is curled up on my shoulders, somehow.

 

You can ride me.

 

You never called. Did you lose? Probably not. You might’ve just forgotten, being so happy with your win and all. Why did you and Gideon fight? I suppose it was for a good reason. Maybe you guys both had too much pent up anxiety.

 

My handwriting is never messy!! Lils said it looks beautiful! I miss Lily. Did you know, we almost had sex once? It was crazy. We stopped once she tried to do stuff to me. I shouldn't be telling you this. I need to get this over with. I listened to all the songs. I like Bartys. Very freaky. However, the 11 pounds go to James. The song made me happy. The lyrics were kind of depressing.

 

You liking silver jewelry just makes so much sense. Our dream houses are the same. Seems so nice to just be surrounded by love, all the time.

 

Jeff Buckley gives me chills. I need to know that song immediately. I think I will cry if I don't find out soon. Please

 

How big are you? I don't think you are joking. maybe you will find out one day ;)

Favorite shoes you own? my brown docs

What was your last dream? I was in this house with some people, I don't really know who they were. I think Lily was there. Everything felt so cozy and stuff. 

Do you have any talents? i can talk backwards

Whats one of your pet peeves? pity

Gold or silver? gold

Favorite candy??   i am a chocolate powered fuck machine

 

i need to get this over with, i am so hungry

 

favorite movie soundtrack?

do you believe in ghosts?

last thing you ate?

last thing you wanked too?

whats the most french thing about you?

 

Sorry this letter is so short, I cannot think right now. By the time you get this, Halloween will be passed. I will call you on Halloween I think. Bye Sirius. 

 

Sincerely,

   Remus J. Lupin

“What?”

 

“Moony!”

 

“Yeah, hi. What?”

 

“Gosh, adleast act excited to hear from me.”

 

“SIRIUS, MY LOVE, I AM FOREVER GRATEFUL THAT YOU HAVE BLESSED ME WITH THE JOY OF HEARING YOUR VOICE.”

 

“You sound so sarcastic right now.”

 

“I wonder why.”

 

“I wonder too. What could you possibly be doing that is more important than talking to me?”

 

“Smoking.”

 

“You can smoke and talk.”

 

“What did you need, Sirius?”

 

“We need help!”

 

“Who's ‘we’?”

 

“Hi Remus!”



“Hey.. Am I supposed to know that is?”

 

“Dont be so rude, Moony! It's James and Reg! We are on snack duty and need help choosing.”

 

“I could've sworn I only heard one person.”

 

“My darling brother is just a bitch.”

 

“Se taire.”

 

“Non tu te tais.”

 

“Tais-toi, ou je lui dirai ce que tu as dit hier soir.”

 

“See. He's a bitch.”

 

“..Mhm..”

 

“You okay Moons?”

 

“Yep..  just fine.”

 

“I think you broke your boyfri-”

 

“JAMES! Shut up. We need a plan.”

 

“A plan?”

 

“Yes. We need to split up. Me and Remus will be a group and then you three can be a group.”

 

“I bet James loves that plan.”

 

“Haha.. Why would I love that plan?”

 

“Moony has this wild theory that you and Reg are fucking.”

 

“HUH-”

 

“Quoi? Pourquoi penserait-il cela? C'est tellement stupide.”

 

Thats what I said Reg! I know James would never betray me like that.”

 

“Haha yeah..”

 

”Hm.”

 

“Anyways! Enough tom-foolery! You guys can get candy and sweets, me and Moony will get chips and drinks.”

 

“You do know I am not there with you, right?”

 

“Shhhh.”

 

“You are crazy.”

 

“Shut up James, or I will tell Reg about that one time in 3rd year.”

 

“Fine.”

 

“So rude..”

 

“Alright! 3.. 2.. 1.. DISPERSE!”

 

“You are always doing too much.”

 

“I WILL MISS YOU JAMES!!!”

 

“I WILL MISS YOU MORE!”

“Huhh.. They are gone.”

 

“You know you will see them in like 10 minutes, right?”

 

“Yeah..”

 

“Are you okay? You seem down all of a sudden.”

 

“YOu know, if you don't want to talk to me that's fine.Or if you think that I am annoying-”

 

“Sirius. I was joking. Don't think that, ever. I smiled for the first time in days when I saw your number calling. Plus, you add some joy to my life.”

 

“Oh. Right. I- Uhm- Thank you.”

 

“You are welcome, love.”

 

“Now, back to business, what drinks?”

 

“Alcoholic or not?”

 

“Nah, Barty and Evan are on alcohol duty. They have fake IDs.”

 

“Juices so you can make punch.”

 

“Smart! Oooo, I will get the red ones!”

 

“Like fake blood?”

 

“Exactly!”

 

“Who knew you could be so smart.”

 

“Haha! I am always smart. Now, what sodas-”

 

“Exuce me?”

 

“Uh, yeah?”

 

“Sorry, Hi, I just saw you from across the store, and you are so handsome.”

 

“Oh, uhm, thank you..”

 

“Do you think I could get your number?”

 

“Oh! I actually don't have a phone.. so…”

 

“Really?”

 

“Yeah! Yep! No phone.. Guess I can't give you my number.”

 

“Oh.. Alright then…”

 

“Haha.. Thanks though.”

 

“Mhm.”

 

“...”

 

“You are so stupid.”

 

“What? How!?”

 

“You are literally holding a phone, right now.”

 

“Oh fuck. He probably thinks I'm such a dick!”

 

“Why did you reject him?”

 

“Oh.. Uhm.. I just have a small crush on someone right now.”

 

“HA! Are you serious?”

 

“I am always Sirius.”

 

“Christ. What happened to that ‘fuck love’ shit?”

 

“Its just a small crush.”

 

“Why didn't you tell me?”

 

“It's stupid.”

 

“How?”

 

“There is no way he would like me back. I am just praying it goes away before I embarrass myself.”

 

“He would be stupid if he didn't like you, Siri.”

 

“Haha yeah.. Anyways, I got Dr. Pepper and Coke. What chips?”

 

“Doritos. Everyone likes Doritos.”

 

“Smart.”

 

“I love Dr. Pepper. Do you like cool-ranch Doritos-”

 

“Remus.”

 

“Oh, sorry Da. I didnt hear you get home.”

 

“Who are you talking to?”

 

“Lily.”

 

“Hang up.”

 

“Okay. Bye Lils.”

 

“I- Bye Moons.”
