Order Only: Private Message to Remus

[alt_sirius]

Right, I know you and Allie want me to play nice with that git, but what in Mordred's name is he on about, 'some people weren't as privileged as you'? If he wants to call being practically locked in my room for that whole summer with nothing to do except work on the transformation privileged, then I suppose I was.

I'll tell you one thing: I don't half like him underestimating our Terry like that.

He started school a bit late, didn't he? Do you know how he managed socially?

Perhaps he's so chummy because he's lonely.

He wrote me once or twice about some of the older boys who liked to give him a particularly hard time. English-born, posh, and Squibs for parents? Barely a step up from Muggleborn but it was the best I could do.

He's made a few friends since then, though.

[alt_lupin]

Probably just that he's too affable for his own good, then.

[alt_sirius]

And that's exactly what worries me. He caught himself tonight. I was his dog for a while there.

Is it too selfish to hope that they leave him in France where he's safer?

[alt_lupin]

No. It's not selfish.
