Padfoot: I have cried
Padfoot: and i’ve been working on the guilt, it’s getting better
Padfoot: today was just a lot
Padfoot: seeing him so happy made me wish he could have been this happy if I had brought him with me five years ago when I left
Padfoot: and I know I can’t change the past, that doesn’t mean it still doesn’t suck tho
Moony: a truer sentence has never been said
Moony: I do owe you one distraction, do you want to cash it in ?
Padfoot: I mean just you’re presence is distracting Moony ;)
Padfoot: but I would very much enjoy listening to you talking nonsense
Moony: not tired enough to forget how to flirt?
Padfoot: I’m NEVER too tired to flirt with you
Moony: somehow that doesn’t surprise me :/
Padfoot: I believe I am due a distraction ??
Moony: ah yes
Moony: could I call you ?? I have dishes to wash, a cat to feed and just general tidying up to do
Moony: soooooo I could distract you AND attempt to be productive at the same time
Padfoot: of course :))
*calling Padfoot*
“Hey Moony”
“Hi Padfoot, how are you feeling?”
“Well keep talking moon man and we will see.”
“Ok well I could rant about sensible things, like gender equality, capitalism, homophobia, racism…… butttt instead I'm just going to rant about Percy Jackson.”
“Ughhhh I love Percy Jackson.”
“Percy was one of my first crushes but also him and Annabeth will forever be endgame.”
“Ugh thank youuuu, I love percabeth more than my life.”
“Well I was really just going to rant about that and try and convince you to love them too so now I'm kind of stuck?”
“I could tell you about my day but it wasn’t all that eventful.”
*laughing lightly*
“I don’t mind what you talk about, honestly your voice is so calming. Talking about anything at all is helping.”
“Who knew Welsh accents could make you so sleepy.”
“Well you have had an emotionally and physically exhausting day.”
“I could be like one of those sleep podcasts!!”
*in a deep relaxing voice*
“Now feel all your strands of hair individually.”
*laughing*
“Those things never work for me!!! I always just end up laughing at their voice or something”
“I want to go to sleep, but I have too many thoughts.”
“I understand completely.”
“Now lie back, relax and listen to me talk about my very uneventful day.”
“Depending on how I'm feeling, if you interrupt me I will either let you away with it.”
“Orrrrr just shout at you, like you did to me!”
“I'm sorryyyy Moony but the story was getting so good and you kept asking questionnssss.”
“Excuse me! You’re interrupting me already!”
“But Moonyyy my interruptions are always valid, unlike yours that ruined my storytelling!!?”
“Padfoot, I swear to god!”
*fake disgust*
“Excuse Me!! ”
“Huh?”
“Taylor equals God, sooooooooo”
“Ughhhh I swear to TAYLOR, I haven't even started my story yet and you're already interrupted so many times!”
“You need to sleep so lie down, close your eyes, close your mouth and listen to my incessant waffle!!”
“Moony you have to be nice to me!!! I’m so sad.”
“I’ve already used that one on Lily today, try something better!”
“Stop being so mean to me or I swear to God I'm going to fall in love with you!”
“New girl!!”
“You have good taste”
*feigning modesty*
“Of course I do, I’m perfect in every way”
“Except the fact that you have to constantly interrupt me?!”
“I regret nothing!! Interrupting you to quote Nick is a very valid reason!
“Besides Nick is the best character in New Girl except Winston! You know what Nick actually gives me Moony vibes, like pessimistic and hates everything!”
“Well aren’t you just full of compliments?”
“Well I’m kind of a Jess kinnie which makes us soulmates!”
“You are never going to make me believe in your soulmate agenda!”
*dramatic gasp*
“Moony, how could you!!”
“Mhmmm I said what I said!”
*pouting*
“You’re mean.”
“Yes I am.”
“But you have to be nice to me today!!”
“I was being nice but you kept interrupting me!!”
“Ok well you can be nice now!!”
“Hmmmmmm, maybe”
“But Moonyyyy I'm so saddd because my mummy didn’t love meeeee.”
“Ugh fine being nice again.”
“Damn, how did that work?!”
*nonchalant*
“I don’t know, I'm just magical like that.”
*laughter*
“Ok, sure.”
“Now are you ready to listen to my inane chatter??
“Yes I'm all tucked into bed EFFIE!”
“Eyes closed, mouth closed or whatever you said”
“Oh no this is my mum Hope ALL they way!”
*laughing*
“That’s nothing close to what I said but sure.”
“Well may Hope continue to possess you as you tell me a bedtime story.”
*clearing throat dramatically*
“Well my day started off with Minnie waking me up by stretching right beside my head like she usually does.”
“Then I had breakfast, toast, and listened to some Hamilton.”
“Moony’s a theatre kid!!!”
“Yep and what are you going to do about it?”
“I know all the words to a two and a half hour long rap musical, I win the punk rockness today Padfoot.”
“Fine, fine, I concede.”
“You may continue.”
“Thank you.”
“Then I did some homework, we’re studying the American Revolution at the moment.”
“Ahhhh, hence the Hamilton.”
“Ohhhh you learn fast.”
“Then I had lunch, Gigi Hadid pasta because I'm just always in the mood for it, who let it be THAT gooodddd!!”
“Also it’s easy to make when I’m tired.”
“Sorry, I'm not going to go on a rant about pasta.”
“Then I walked to therapy because Poppy, who is my therapist, said I have to.”
“Something about walking and fresh air and endorphins, I don't know.”
“But it was tirinngggg”
“But did it work ?”
“………”
“What happened to sleep?”
“And silence.”
*sleepy laughter*
“Well while I was in the waiting room I texted Lily and guilted her into getting ingredients to bake the aesthetic lemon drizzle cake.”
“Then I did therapy.”
“Did therapy?”
“Is that the right way to say it?”
“I'm not sure.”
“And after that I walked home and Lils and I made the cake.”
“And then I watched some Grey’s Anatomy.”
“Andddd now I'm talking to you.”
“So not a very eventful day.”
“But yes, there you go.”
“………..”
“Padfoot?”
“Are You awake?”
“………..”
“Ok, I'm going to hang up now if you're ready.”
*whispering*
“Moony, wait, don't go.”
“I'm not going anywhere, don’t worry.”
“Are you ok?”
“Yes just ……”
“Please don’t go.”
“I'm not going anywhere, Pads.”
“Thank you Moony.”
“Anytime Padfoot, really.”
“………….”
*light snoring*
(next morning, 7:56)
*Sirius waking up*
*Remus’ deep even breathing*
*Sirius chuckling quietly*
“Moony didn’t hang up.”
*realization*
“Fuck, Moony didn’t hang up.”
*talking to himself*
“It’s normal to get butterflies when someone doesn't hang up, right?”
*door opening*
“Padfoot you ok?”
“Yes, I'm fine, thanks James.”
“Ok well Reggie is going to be here in half an hour so get up.”
“Ok, thanks Prongs.”
“……….”
*confusion*
“Was there something else James?”
“Why does your face look like that?”
“Look like what?”
“I don’t know! I know all your facial expressions but I’ve never seen this one before!”
“Oh that.”
“Yes that.”
“Want to talk about it?”
*Sirius showing James the ongoing call on his phone*
“He didn't hang up huh ?"
*deep sigh*
“No James, he didn’t.”
“Need a hug ?”
“Yes please”
“I should probably hang up, don’t want to wake him up.“
“Probably.”
*Call ended 12hrs 23mins*

Padfoot: I KNOW !!!!!!
Moony: why a road trip ???
Padfoot: Andy is stuck on bed rest cause
Padfoot: Actually I forgot to ask !?!!!
Padfoot: something to do with her pregnancy, I dunno
Moony: yes well people who are on bed rest it tends to be something to do with the human growing inside them
Padfoot: someone’s cranky :/
Moony: I’m always cranky Padfoot
Padfoot: of course, how could I forget !!
Padfoot: well her husband is stuck in Switzerland at some promotion meeting or something ??

Moony: I thought you didn't talk to your family??
Moony: oh SHIT sorry, that was so tactless, I’m so sorry !!!
Padfoot: it’s fine Moony :)
Padfoot: well Andy, Reggie and I are all disowned
Padfoot: her parents didn’t like it when she started dating her ex-girlfriend, and threatened her if she didn’t break up with her
Padfoot: so being the badass she, is she ran away and, and thus was disowned
Padfoot: things didn’t work out with her ex, but then she met Ted and she lived happily ever after :)
Moony: did I ever tell you I hate your birth family, because I really really hate them
Moony: homophobic assholes
Padfoot: thanks Moony, me too
Moony: tell Andy I’m sending her well wishes !!
Moony: oh my god I sound like my granny :’)
Padfoot: I honestly think Ted is the one who needs the well wishes
Padfoot: he didn’t want to go to the meeting in the first place in case anything happened with the baby, but Andy insisted he went and she won’t let him come home until all his work stuff is figured out
Padfoot: honestly I love that women but she’s scary
Moony: So basically, Ted is a himbo ??
Padfoot: oh for sure

Padfoot: I’m sure we will
Padfoot: Little Nymphadora will be keeping us all on our toes
Moony: little what ???
Padfoot: well we have to keep up the atrocious family tradition of astronomical and/or Greek mythology related names
Moony: and your bets are on……. Nymphadora??
Padfoot: yes well James has his bets on Alsephina, so which is really worse ???
Moony: there are so many nicer star names to choose though ???
Moony: you already hate this child and it hasn't even come out of the womb yet
Padfoot: oh dear moonshine what a name snob you are
Moony: no I was just cursed with a rather…… interesting name
Moony: and I wouldn’t wish that upon any innocent child
Padfoot: this child is the spawn of Andromeda and Ted, it is not innocent
Padfoot: I don’t doubt they will be an absolute terror
Padfoot: but an adorable terror
Moony: you’re in uncle mode already
Padfoot: oh yes
Padfoot: I’m going to be the cool uncle who buys them leather jackets and bowie vinyls
Padfoot: Regulus is such a swot he will probably have this baby playing chess at 4 months old
Moony: ohhhhhhh
Moony: Regulus
Padfoot: ehhhhhh, yes?
Moony: no I mean the astronomical names !!!
Padfoot: ohhhhh jehehehehebbr
Padfoot: yes

*Incoming call from Moony;)*
“Hey what’s u-“
“Padfoot, oh my God I am so sorry holy shit!!”
“I’m so stupid I didn’t even think that any of them could’ve bee-“
*soft laughter*
“Moony it’s ok.”
“But it’s not! That was horrible!”
“You’re allowed to be angry at me!”
“Shout or do whatever you need to do, it's fine!”
“No Moony, it's really fine, I promise.”
“And if it wasn’t I would tell you.”
“I’m over that part of my life, or, as over it as I can be.”
“I’ve had lots of time, so yes, it really really is ok!”
“But I ca-“
“Hello sir, as much as I am enjoying you interrupting my class, can you please take this call with your boyfriend out to the corridor where you cannot disrupt my class any further.”
“Oh of course, I’m so sorry Professor Binns.”
“That’s fine, just don’t do it again.”
“Now as I was saying, the roman influence contributed to many advances in…….”
*voices fading into distance*
*said through loud laughter*
“Remus I know you did NOT just make that call in the middle of class!!”
*embarrassedly*
“That class is so boring I forgot I was in class until ‘that’ happened!!”
“Ughhh this is so embarrassing!”
“Oh no this has been tremendous fun, I’m glad to see this ‘Professor Binns’ has taste.”
“Taste?”
“Moony dear, did you miss the part where he called me your boyfriend?”
“Oh-“
*laughter*
“Who is that?”
“Oh well Regulus is a nosey fucker and has been listening this whole time.”
“Oh good god.”
“Oh no Moony it was quite spectacular, I mean interrupting a whole lecture theatre just to apologize to my darling brother. Although it does make sense because you could probably murder everyone he loves and he would still be in lov-“
*muffled sounds*
“Ok now what is THAT?”
“That is me putting me hand over Reggie’s mouth before he can say something stupid!”
“Well first of all, it was a small group of people, not a WHOLE lecture theatre!”
“Still embarrassing though, it’s just Sirius.”
“Regulus shut the fuck up or I’ll make sure you don’t get any ice cream at Andy’s!!”
“Oh please Andy loves me more than you so if anyone won’t get ice cream it’s you!”
“You guys have an….. interesting sibling dynamic.”
“Mhmm James seems to think so too!”
“Hey Moony!!!”
“I’m guessing that’s James?”
“It is indeed.”
“Oh good!”
“He’s my favourite one anyway.”
*yells of indignation*
“Oh Moon boy I knew I was going to like you!”
“I mean I knew I would anyway, but this is truly wonderful!”
“Nice to meet you Prongs!”
“I’ve heard a lot about you!”
“Padfoot tends to talk a lot about, HEY-“
*phone being grabbed*
*pouting*
“Moony!!”
*mockingly pouting*
“Padfoot!!”
“You can’t like James more than me!!”
*muffled in the background*
“He’s my brother-in-law, to be!”
“Of course he had to like me!”
“What was that?”
“I can’t really hear anything?”
“Sorry Moony, bad reception!”
“Talk to you later!!!”
“Bye James and Regulus!”
“HEY!!”
*whispering*
“Bye Padfoot.”
*also whispering*
“Why are we whispering?”
“Because I just walked back into my lecture.”
“Oh shit ok, bye Moony!!”
*laughing quietly*
“Bye Padfoot.”
*call ended 15 mins*
