I have a favor to ask. Do you still have a spare room?

miavi

[lechiennoir]

Just the one, yes. What’s up?

[wolfymcwolf]

I've met someone displaced who needs a place to stay, and my couch really isn't the best for a long-term guest.

His name is Teddy Lupin.

[lechiennoir]

....But you don't have any siblings.


....Is this what I think it is, mate???

[wolfymcwolf]

If what you're thinking is that I have a son, then yes. [Who's in shock? Not this guy. Perfectly fine. Perfectly adjusted.]

[lechiennoir]

That is, in fact, what I was thinking, Mssr Moony.

I. How. With who? [Sirius totally isn't in shock, either. As you can see.]

[wolfymcwolf]

[okay good they are both Definitely Not In Shock, then. good. excellent.]

His mum was never born here. One of those differences between the displaced's time and ours, apparently.

As for how, I do hope you have an understanding of the mechanics by now, Sirius, you are far past the point that discussion should have happened. [Haha see he's making jokes he's F I N E]

[lechiennoir]

[Excellent, yes. Good thing they're both good at pretending.] I see. But still, I'd like to know who got her hands on our Moony even if she doesn't exist here.

Of course I do. It's just -- never mind. [That could stray into awkward territory. Best to avoid it for now.]

[wolfymcwolf]

[There's something a little odd about Sirius' reaction, but... well, it's an odd situation. And they're pretending they're not entirely out of sorts about it.] I don't know what to make of it, really. Teddy seems fine. He's older than we are, so it's not like he's expecting me to act like a parent.

He's not a werewolf. [So that's........ a hell of a relief]

[lechiennoir]

I wouldn't think he would be, it's not genetic.

Anyway, if he was, it wouldn't matter, especially not if he's got friends about. [Danger zone successfully avoided? Maybe? Hopefully? Please don't ask about the weirdness, Remus.]
