Initially Completed: 9-23-2022

Bonus Chapter Added & Secret Edits: 2-12-2025Excerpt:
A soft tapping caught Remus’s attention. He glanced up, a smile lighting his lips at the sight of bright green eyes on a curly haired toddler. Harry was three...and a half, if he was asked. He and his father were regulars on Wednesdays, traipsing into the library for the Children’s Story Time every week, without fail. Immediately, Remus was charmed by the pair.“Hello, Harry,” Remus greeted him, reaching for the stickers on the desk. He rifled through the stack for one with a train. Harry liked those best. Finding one, he offered it to the tot. “Are you and your Da-“
“Paddy!” Harry exclaimed, patting the leather jacket on the man holding him.
Suddenly, Remus spotted the rings on the hand wrapped around Harry’s middle. After that mental cartwheel, Remus’s gaze took a long, leisurely journey up the man’s body. Ffyc.

Summary
“They’re… chaos,” Remus said firmly. “And chaos is—”
“Rock and roll.”
He looked at Sirius sharply, and for once, matched his grin. “Yeah.”
“Maybe that’s my excuse then,” Sirius said. “I cause a bit of chaos now, and maybe one day, it’ll turn into rock and roll.”After losing his mother at age eleven, Remus has spent the better part of the last four years bouncing from school to school or else running around London and pretending as though he wasn't the kind of well-bred boy his father brought him up to be. Now, with his chances all run out, Remus is sent to Hawkings Independent School as a last-ditch effort to clean up his act. There he meets the very people who will set up the rest of his life, and is forced to confront the pieces of himself he'd long thought had been lost.
(genuinely not apologising for the slow-burn in this fic anymore. You've been warned <3)
