“He still didn’t understand, Remus realised, sadly. He still didn’t know why they couldn’t just carry on the way they were. Stupid, beautiful, impossible boy.”
KEVIN DAY REFERENCE? If I had a nickel for every time a traumatised teen boy described his doomed situationship as stupid and beautiful I would have two nickels, which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it happened twice.

“I might break his heart.” She bit her lip, still watching him flying, blowing his whistle and pointing emphatically at the goal rings.
“You might.” Remus agreed, “But I think James Potter would consider it an honour to have his heart broken by you.”

“He would close the door on whatever his relationship with Sirius had been - it was fine to look upon Christmas as a fond memory, or to feel a little bit lonelier, a little less whole - but this was entirely necessary, both for his health and his sanity. Sirius was not the whole world, as much as he might seem it sometimes.”

“I couldn’t ask--”

“When it came down to it, Remus could face a vicious killer in a dark alley; could make demands on Dumbledore himself. But he could not say no to Sirius.”

“God, I love arguing with you, Remus thought, feeling the heat flare up his neck, desire for Sirius just about burning him up, I could argue with you forever.”

“Sirius is my best friend, and a Gryffindor, and the Potters love him – but to everyone else he’s still a Black. He’ll spend the rest of his life trying not to be, no matter how many good things he does. Because people never forget things like that – they think that what you are makes you who you are.”

“You’re not a dark creature.” James said, suddenly, “You’re our Moony.”
Alright cut the show I’m done
