I have a drabble request, if Remus and Tonks had lived, finding out they’re expecting another child.

this is like... only half answering your prompt, i'm sorry, but this idea would not let go of me haha.

Remus knows that his wife would like another, but she's too wary of pushing him too far after his reaction to her pregnancy with Teddy. He understands, he really does, and he tries hard not to hate himself for it; he's working on reducing his general level of self loathing for both his wife and their son.

What if Teddy had been a werewolf? Would he have grown to be at war with himself the way his father has been since he was four years old?

But Teddy is not a werewolf, he's a perfectly normal one and a half year old boy, other than his hair color switching between his genetically given brunette and vibrant blue. Of course, his existence isn't proof that it would be impossible for him and Dora to have a werewolf baby, but he is proof that the scenario isn't a given.

Would it really be so bad to have another child? No, of course not, Teddy is the light of his life, and Tonks is over the moon with parenthood as well. Remus loved his parents, and he wouldn't change a thing-- other than the werewolf bite-- about the childhood that they gave him. But he had often wondered what it would have been like to have a playmate, to not be an only child.

He's not going to run this time, not only because then he'd truly be a coward, but because he's open to this second child. Still anxious about the pregnancy, and his werewolf status plaguing his family, and the possibility of the child being a werewolf.

But still, very much open to it.

The only issue is... is it impolite to tell your wife that she's pregnant because your heightened sense of smell recognizes that she's with child before she presumably has? It's the same shift in scent that she had when she was pregnant with Teddy; and she had been complaining about her period being late from the stress of her latest auror missions...

It comes out indelicately, of course, the next morning when Dora feels ill and she's clinging to him on the bathroom floor.

"You smell like you're pregnant."

Every now and again I feel like we all to remember these exist

The true story of one Remus John Lupin.

[rainbowwolfpups]

What is your favorite Remadora headcanon?

On their 3rd mission ‌Dora forgot her gloves (Sirius hid them ofc) so Remus warmed up her hands by holding them

During ootp, everyone but Remus and Tonks knew that they are a couple

Since most of the Order knew about their crush on each other and they would intentionally leave the room so they are the only ones left

Once, Remus found Tonks sleeping on the sofa after her long hours at work and carried her to the guest bed and tucked her in (he also might have stared at her peacefully sleeping face for a moment or two, but no one is supposed to know about that...so, shh)

There was definitely a betting pool on who would ask the other out, how long would it take, who would initiate the first kiss.....and Sirius was the only one to get all of them correct (7 years of witnessing Remus's self depreciation pays off)

Remus was the first one to have romantic feelings but Dora was the one to fall first....but only because he kept trying to deny it to himself (and to Sirius)

Dora initiated their first kiss and Remus was so shoked that he forgot to kiss her back, she pulled away thinking he didn't want it and started to apologize but he pulled her back and kissed her deeply.

They used to sneak around the house to snog, and one day Mad-Eye saw them while looking for boggarts....he then told Tonks that he's a great guy but there'll be social stigma by associating with him so she should be very sure, and if not, this was the best time to walk away before breaking his heart....Tonks first joked about how she knew he had a tender heat underneath all the gruffness abd assured him that she was very sure about him...she was oddly pleased by his care for Remus.

Later Sirius gave her the same talk

The first time Remus thought they might have a real future together is when Dora ‌bandaged him up after a full moon..she was very gentle...but the thing that astonished Remus the most was that she didn't run for the hills after seeing his state...it was also the first time she saw his naked torso which is covered with old and new scars and she said something along the line "chicks dig scars" was very true.

Dora loves ‌tracing her finger over Remus's scscars.

‌They love to bake together.

On their first Christmas together, Dora‌ was torn between making fun of Remus's ugly Christmas sweater and admiring how good he looked in it

Ofc, Sirius entrapped them under a Mistletoe and they had to kiss

2/3 days before Dumbledore died, Remus went to Hogwarts to give him mission report and on his way out he got nostalgic and roamed the corridors and he found the mirror of erised....he saw Tonks beside him

"She looked like her old self that he had known before he’d left. No dark hair in sight, no hollowed out cheeks and pained eyes.

It was then that Remus noticed his own appearance had changed. He had no scars across his face. The premature greys in his hair were no longer there, he looked like his age. His condition no longer ageing him. His condition no longer existing.

It was then that the mirror showed Nymphadora moving a little closer, her hand touching his arm. There was a ring on her finger, one on his own too. "

-Quoting this part directly from this wonderful oneshot by the lovely @messrmoonyy

On the day of the battle of astronomy tower, Tonks found it while patrolling the castle...she saw the same image as Remus...BUT the Remus beside her was just the way he was, with all his scars and grey hair

Madam Pomfrey gave Remus a speech after the hospital wing incident...she told him that for seven years she had seen the part of him that he believes to be the worst and she still thinks he deserves happiness (from then on, She is a hardcore Remadora shipper cz Tonks was also her regular patient and she loves Remus like a son)

After they got married, Mad-Eye took Remus aside and gave him the talk, but was not as aggressive as Remus thought it would be, he even seemed pleased, Remus was surprised to realize that he approved of their match...Remus didn't realize how much he wanted it (tho he did threaten to kill him brutally if he hurt her, but that was expected)

Married life

Remus ‌kisses Dora's knuckles every time she gives him hot chocolate or tea

Lots of cuddling in front of the fireplace

Remus ‌finding Dora asleep on the couch, pushing her hair off the forehead, pressing a kiss and carrying her to bed...and then her waking up in his arms, confused most of the time, but warm was fairly common

Whenever Tonks returns injured from a mission, Remus always notices every bruise or scratch on her body and tends to them with incredible care

Both Tonks's Teddy's hair colour changes with mood and Remus has all of them memorized...Tonks doesn't need the help of hair colour to understand Remus's moods tho

Sometimes after returning from work, Tonks stands in the doorway to watch Remus playing with Teddy or telling his own boyhood stories to the baby...she loves to watch what a loving parent he is

Remus's Patronus changed into a rabbit but he didn't know it for a long time since he almost never conjures a corporeal Patronus.

In the honor of May 2nd, I present you this...

I'm posting this to remind myself that THEY ARE ALIVE

So, DO NOT try to burst my bubble

The world is on fire, but we're in this together.

yknow the more jk rowlings world falls apart in america (race relations, international history, population, etc) the more i like to think that america just straight up doesnt have the statute of secrecy. european countries are falling over themselves hiding magic but come to georgia and theres a drunk redneck wizard wingardium leviosa-ing the shit out of a tractor to the delight of his drunk redneck muggle buddies in a walmart parking lot.

wizard on muggle violence is prevented by virtue of there being like a 50/50 chance that muggle is packing heat. muggle on wizard violence is prevented by knowing that wizard can give you boils spelling LIL BITCH on your forehead if you try to start something.

america is the weird redheaded stepchild of the magic world.

This dumb bitch really be testing my patience. You're telling Harry Potter, a child that never got to know his parents, a child who was forced into a war, a child whose innocence was stripped away from him at such a young age, you're telling him that life isn't fair? You bitch you literally led Voldemort to him and got his parents killed.

You think that Life isn't Fair because your schoolyard crush didn't love you back and married someone who actually loved her and didn't just had a creepy obsession. You think life isn't fair because Lily was happy with James and not with a greaseball. What kind of a freak are you? This is the only reason you think that Life isn't fair?!!?

What about Sirius Black? A man who was wrongly imprisoned for 12 years !! for the murder of his brother !! An innocent man who tried so hard to prove that he was different from his family only to be taken just like them.

What about Remus Lupin? He was bit when he was 4 years old. Can you imagine the childhood trauma he went through? His bones breaking and organs reshaping every full moon since he was 4. And getting friends who actually cared about him accepted and loved him the way he was, only for what all of them dying? Do you understand the way he felt after they were gone forever, and he was left all alone again?

And what about James and Lily, huh? They never got to live thier lives they died so young, 21 you get it? They were fucking 21. They never got to watch their son grow up, yes the same child you bullied.

You have no right to say that your life wasn't fair, you greasy Emo Squidward.

I bought this absolutely gorgeous Remadora doujinshi!! It may very well be my favorite doujinshi, out of all the ones I’ve collected from different series! I haven’t been able to read it thoroughly yet, since I am very, very slow at reading Japanese. But from what I’ve gathered, it looks like it’s showing the stuff that happens in between what we see in the novels. Like Tonks confessing her feelings to Lupin and begging him to be with her. Unlike most doujinshi I’ve seen, it shows them actually spending time together, talking about their feelings, and going on dates prior to having sex. It’s all very beautiful and intimate. There’s a scene where they’re seeing each other naked for the first time, and Tonks sees Lupin’s scars. The sex feels very romantic. It shows both of them touching each other, rather than focusing only on one of them. At one point during sex, Lupin accidentally gets a little rough with her, and he thinks “oh, that’s right; I’m a monster…” and he feels terrible. But she hugs him and forgives him. And there seems to be so much heart-to-heart conversation in this that we don’t get to see at all in the novels. And there’s lots of cute cuddling! I really hope to be able to read this all the way through! Did I mention I absolutely adore their designs?? I wish I could draw them this perfectly!! It really suits them!
