You cut me open and I Keep bleeding Sirius sighed as his shoes clicked along the cobblestone street. It had been a while since he graduated Hogwarts and he still didn’t feel like it was real. He no longer had to go to class every morning and complete homework yet that had been his life for the last few years. Hogwarts had been a place to escape his family and to be honest it was the only place that had ever felt like home except the Potter’s home. The sound of people stumbling out of a door pulled the young wizard from his thoughts and his eyes drifted to the sign above the door. The leaky Cauldron A smirk pulled at the corners of his mouth; he hadn’t really had a plan on where he was going but the moment he saw the pub he knew his plans for the night. He would have a drink or five at the Leaky Cauldron and perhaps go home with a pretty witch. His pace quickened as his hand reached for the handle and pulled open the door. It took a moment for his eyes to adjust from the dusk light on the street to the dim lighting in the pub. He soft shrug found its way to his shoulders as he noticed the small crowd. There was a mixture of people young and old which didn’t bother him either way. He came for a good time and he had come to realize that it didn’t matter the age anyone could have fun. He made his way through the crowd and up to the bar counter “Fire whiskey” he said as he pulled out a few coins. It didn’t take long until there was a drink in front of him and he was a few coins poorer. Sitting onto one of the stools he turned to face the crowd drink in hand. So far he didn’t really recognize anyone but to be honest he wasn’t really trying to find anyone he knew. His only focus was sipping on his drink until it was time to buy another one. open posty posty who whats to join

[googlefont="Playfair Display"][googlefont="Alice"] Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful? Definitely. He needed a drink. Seemed like every time he liked someone, they turned out to fancy his friends, were his friends, or apparently turned out to be his sister in disguise. Great. So great. He had such great luck. However, actually luckily, he had finished his current mission for the Order, which involved a kettle and some string. He had been sprayed with coffee and had to change, so he was in his ‘nice’ clothes, as if he were planning to go out drinking and picking up girls. After all, he pretty much had his regular clothes, and his nice clothes. Well, they were old, but he always fixed them up, so they looked just fine. Not wanting to head home just yet, Remus decided to stop by the Leaky Cauldron. After all, he needed a drink and drinking alone was just even more depressing. Not only that, he didn’t have alcohol in his place, happens when you don’t have any money to really spend. Luckily, he had just gotten part of his stipend from his friends for his ‘job’ for working with the order. That way he had a little bit of pocket money. And that meant he could afford a drink. Upon entering, he looked around and his eyes fell on the back of a certain man’s head. It wasn’t surprising to see him here. Smiling, he walked over and took a seat next to his friend. “What’s a handsome guy like you, doing alone in a place like this?” Remus ordered a firewhiskey as well, leaning against the bar, his eyes drifting around the room. “I’m surprised girls aren’t swarming all over you already.”

((Sorry it’s not pretty posting from my phone sorry for any typos I missed)) Sirius downed his drink before turning around and ordering yet another drink. So far there were a few girls that caught his eye but it wasn’t time to approach anyone yet. He wanted to get some drinks in before he started to actually socialize. His drink wasn’t in his hand for more than a few moments before a familiar voice rang in his ears causing a smile for form.
“Ah give it time” he paused only to take a sip of his drink, there was a slight burn as the liquid slid down his throat. A burn that Sirius had grown to enjoy over the last few years. ” In about half an hour I bet I’ll be crawling in women” a soft playful smirk appeared as he spoke again “ I bet you could be also” Sirius lifted his glass and took another sip winking his eye at Remus.
Sirius lowered his glass as he looked up and down at Remus “You know you aren’t a bad looking guy” he singled for the bartender “Another one for my friend” . He didn’t wait for Remus to agree or protest before he was shoving a glass of fire whiskey in his friend’s hands. “A little liquid courage and we can get you laid in no time” he winked again towards his best friend “ All it takes is a bit of self confidence” sadly he knew sometimes his friend had some issues in that department... though that wasn’t a problem Sirius had... he probably had too much self confidence to be honest even if it was a facade most of the time.

[googlefont="Playfair Display"][googlefont="Alice"] Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful? Oh, he was just about to protest but he shut his mouth and swallowed them. He knew that Sirius wouldn’t let him. Taking the glass handed to him, Remus took a small sip of the drink. There was that fire in the firewhiskey. It almost felt like it was welcoming him home. It helped he was around company that usually made him happy. Sirius was always so confident while he was not. Sirius was attractive and charming and well, he didn’t think he was anything like that. “I sincerely doubt that. You’re the one the women like. Not me.” He took in a larger swig of the whiskey and let out a breath, the burn in the back of his throat. Next time smaller drink, he told himself. He looked to Sirius wistfully before he quickly looked away. If he ever figured it out, he would very easily be kicked out of the group – or so he told himself. He as always afraid of that even if he trusted his friends with his life. He was just afraid that he was wrong. That he would do something that would drive them away, not the other way around. It would always be his fault if something happened. Like him admitting he kinda sorta like Sirius in a more than friends way. But everyone had crushes they didn’t act on. Except maybe Sirius. He seemed to act on any sort of whim when it came to someone he liked. “It doesn’t help your confidence if the people you’ve had your eye on don’t like you like that.” Remus shrugged. “They always tend to like you or James more. It’s not a bad thing, I don’t blame you for it either.” He grinned looking to Sirius with a slightly toothy smile. “It’s better I don’t anyways, you know. With my ‘furry little problem’.”

You cut me open and I Keep bleeding “I’m the one women like because I put myself out there” Sirius didn’t care if he was shot down because in his mind there was always another one. He had never been hung up on a woman before… not like James had been hooked on Lily. He wrinkled his nose at the thought of it. James had fallen for that girl so hard and what good did it do? To put yourself out there? James just ended up with a broken heart. It wasn’t worth it in Sirius’ mind; he didn’t see the point in opening yourself up to that kind of hurt. Hell he had spent most of his life thinking he would be in some pureblood arranged marriage put together by his mother. A loveless marriage just like his parents had. “If you get shot down… there is always another one”. He took rather large gulp of his second drink finishing it; Sirius looked down at the glass and frowned like a toddler who had just finished their bottle. He tilted his head to the side as he slid another coin onto the bar in turn receiving his third drink which turned his frown upside down. He turned back to Remus with a shocked look on his face. “Not like me? Every girl likes me” yes he was being cocky, yes there were plenty of girls who didn’t like him but he acted like every girl was in love with him. He sighed and shook his head “Plenty of girls think you are attractive Moony” He hated when Remus put himself down; it was if he didn’t see that he was an amazing person. A small laugh escaped the wizard as he clapped his free hand on Remus’ shoulder “One night stand wouldn’t get in the way of your ‘furry little problem’ not at all” He winked at his best friend “You don’t even have to tell her your real name” okay so that was a bit sleezy but there were plenty of girls who went out who were looking for some fun. Not every girl wanted a relationship and to get married. open posty posty who whats to join

[googlefont="Playfair Display"][googlefont="Alice"] Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful? Remus grimaced. Sirius and he were very different when it came to things like this, but he could suppose he understood. He had a father who was terrible, but he never really viewed a marriage with his parental figures that was miserable, just because of convenience. Everything he saw was that his father loved his mother. That was the one redeeming quality he saw in his father: the fact he loved his mother very much. “There’s always another one, yes, but… doesn’t that make them not special?” He sighs shaking his head and taking a drink of his whiskey again. Rolling his eyes when Sirius acted cocky – he was used to it. He was used to his friend’s antics and how very different they were when they talked about girls, or well guys in his case – though he was pretty sure Sirius didn’t realize he was into guys as well as girls, but that didn’t really matter. “Maybe some girls do, but I haven’t found a girl I find attractive that also finds me attractive. And I’m not looking for a one-night stand. Nor would I lie to her about my name.” He grimaced thinking about how his sister tricked him. Using a fake name. Playing him like that. He shook his head. “Never. I would never do that. Do you know how it feels when you’re lied to like that? When you’re tricked into thinking you’re with someone, but it turns out its someone else?” He shook his head, and then sighed, taking a large gulp of his whiskey. “Sorry I just… was tricked by someone recently. I thought I had something special for once but it was ripped away.”

You cut me open and I Keep bleeding Sirius raised an eyebrow when Remus asked about it not being special… that wasn’t something Sirius ever looked for. “Special?” he scoffed “Feeling good isn’t about anything special” Sirius shrugged as he took another drink “At least it’s never been special for me”. Sirius had never been in love before he had never really looked at a relationship as something special. Relationships had been to have someone to be around to feel good but they were never anything more than that. He didn’t have a problem moving from girl to girl because he never allowed them close enough to get anywhere near his heart. He knew just how easy a heart could be crushed by those that were supposed to love you… a lesson that James was in the process of learning right at that moment. Sirius stood up moving closer to his friend “I think that you a far too picky” He sighed and looked down at the ground knowing he would lose this argument slowly he looked up locking eyes with his friend a playful smile now attached to his face “How about this?’ he took a sip of his drink and pointed around the room over Remus’ shoulder without losing eye contact. “How about you tell me your type and I can find the perfect one to just distract you for one night” Sirius frowned at Remus’ question “I don’t think I’ve been lied to but in the end I got laid so I don’t think I mind much even if they lied” she had gotten what she wanted and he had gotten what he wanted so in his mind it was a win win. Sirius moved his free hand to Remus’ shoulder “I’m sorry” How did Remus always run into bad luck? His father was awful, his sister wasn’t the best, and now someone had hurt him. “She didn’t deserve you anyway… one day you’ll find someone who knows that you are a great person”[/]b he paused “Anyone would be lucky to have you”

[googlefont="Playfair Display"][googlefont="Alice"] Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful? Remus scratched his head and then shook it. He completely understood that some people viewed that sort of release as something that was just completely natural and normal. But Remus, well, he was always afraid of letting loose. Letting himself go and just enjoying himself. Because he was afraid if he did, he would end up hurting whoever it was he let go around. There was a wild instinct bubbling beneath his surface, something that became stronger the closer to the full moon they were. He knew where it came from, and he swore it wasn’t a part of himself, and it was just the curse. But who knew if he would feel that feeling just as much if he hadn’t been cursed like this? “It’s not just feeling good. If you wanted to feel good you can do that on your own.”Raising an eyebrow as Sirius moved closer to him, he followed his friend’s gaze to the ground. For a moment he almost felt bad, like he had done something wrong to make Sirius look like that – but then he looked up with a smile. Remus shook his head and let out an exasperated sigh. “I sincerely doubt you’ll find someone who would like me, and fits… what I like in someone. Intelligent. Fiesty. Strong. Someone who can be serious, but also have fun. Someone who I could talk to about what I feel and not feel like they were judging me. Find someone like that who could stand being around such a… killjoy like me, then maybe I could spend the night with them.” He bit his lower lip, looking up for a moment. That described a lot of people he knew. But all of those people would never want to be with someone like him. Sirius? He was too into girls to like him and wouldn’t be able to settle he was sure. Lily? James loved her, and he could never get in the way of that. Heck, he even liked that guy, Toma, quite a bit, but he didn’t understand the dangers really and he’d never want to put him in the danger of being with werewolf. For almost a full week he thought he found someone, but it turned out it was his sister tricking him. To what end, he wasn’t sure. “Obviously not anyone.” Remus rubbed his eyes and finished off his glass of firewhiskey in a quick chug, setting the glass down empty. He ran a finger along the top of it, watching the colors it reflected change with his finger’s movement. “It was my own damn sister. Tricked me into thinking she was someone else. Seduced me. Isn’t that fucked up?”

You cut me open and I Keep bleeding A hard laugh escaped Sirius when Remus suggested that feeling good could be done by yourself “Aye Remus… you can but it’s not the same”. It was one thing to do it by yourself but it was another to have someone do it for you or to get out your frustrations with another body. He enjoyed that time much more when he had a partner that wasn’t his hand. “I think you are looking too much for a connection” connections caused pain, the only person Sirius had ever laid his soul out for was that night when he showed up on James’ doorstep. He had fallen into James’ arms and cried… cried for the loss of his family the family that hated him. He had never spoke of that moment and James had never brought it up. Sirius didn’t like laying his feelings out… he didn’t like opening himself up to be hurt. Years of being a Black had trained him to hide his emotions to put on a brave face and pretend that the world was beneath him. Sirius let out a soft groan as Remus started naming off his type “Okay, I was right you are far too picky” he paused “You didn’t even try to make it easy for me” how was he supposed to know any of those qualities “I was hoping for like small and blonde” that was much easier to find in a pub… what he wanted wasn’t found in a pub. “And you aren’t a killjoy” he hated when Remus put himself down “You are just a bit more serious than the rest of us” He paused “I think perhaps you need to open yourself up to something new”. He took his hand and tapped the side of Remus face gently “I think the problem is you are too kind” He knew Remus wasn’t like himself; Remus wasn’t the type to bed a girl and not care about her feelings...he was the complete opposite of Sirius. He shook his head his head “Anyone would be lucky, hell if I were a woman you wouldn’t be half that bad” he joked but the laugh died on his lips when he heard the next words that Remus spoke. He couldn’t help but wrinkle his nose and furrowed his eyebrows “Wait what?” he asked did Remus just say that his sister tried to seduce him… “What in the bloody hell is your sister into?” MADE BY VEL OF GS + ADOX 2.0

[googlefont="Playfair Display"][googlefont="Alice"] Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful? Remus shrugged. “I don’t know how different it is. Unlike you I haven’t… slept with anyone. Yet.” A connection? Maybe. He just wanted someone he could trust to bare himself to, someone he could be friends with, someone he could maybe fall in love with - Okay, yeah Sirius was right. He just couldn’t think of sleeping with someone who he didn’t know at all. He was very… self-conscious about his body, particularly the scars that covered him. He usually wore long sleeves, even in the middle of summer, so showing off himself naked to someone? Even that was hard for him to imagine. He raised an eyebrow and then shook his head, chuckling lightly. “I don’t know what I would like in… appearance I suppose.” Something new? That was a scary prospect, but it was always his friends who did that. Hell, they got him to open up and prank with them occasionally. They got him to allow them to come with him during the moon because of all the work they put into it. He bit his lower lip and shrugged. “Someone who isn’t… cookie cutter. A unique look to them.” He paused and pressed his lips together. “I do like someone who is shorter than me I guess?” Too kind? Remus sighed and pinched his nose. “I don’t know how that is a problem.”If he were a woman? Remus shook his head, as Sirius asked about his sister. “I don’t think I want to know either. I already know way too much about her private life. Don’t want to know more.” He sighed and lifted his hand to order a second firewhiskey. Once delivered, he took a large swig. “I don’t mind… guys in that way.”

You cut me open and I Keep bleeding Remus was right though Sirius spoke of sex in such way because it wasn’t an awkward topic for himself. It wasn’t taboo in his mind to Sirius sex was just having a good time… a good hobby. “And maybe we should change that at some point” Sirius was saying it more as a joke but there was part of him that meant it. He hated that remus looked so down on himself that he wouldn’t even allow himself a simple pleasure. Sirius just wanted Remus to see himself in the same light that he looked at his best friend. He didn’t just see some poor chap werewolf. He saw the kindness and the loyalty. Remus was one of the best people he had ever met in his life and it was only one small monthly flaw. He took his hadn’t off his shoulder clapping it down on Remus before pulling his arm back. “Well that’s a start” in Sirius’ mind he was still being a bit picky but it was a bit easier to work with than the first list. The pub was filled with all sorts of people he was sure that he would be able to find someone with at least one of those points. Sirius leaned back on his bar stool looking at his friend utterly confused; Sirius always knew that Remus and his sister were very different even while being twins. Rose never really rubbed Sirius the right way; he couldn’t really put a finger on why but it was just something he had always felt since meeting the girl. It had nothing to do with her condition just as he didn’t care about Remus’. “I really don’t understand that girl” if Remus hadn’t told him he would have never would of guessed they were siblings. Once again Sirius tilted his head to the side like a confused puppy when Remus spoke. “What do you mean by I don’t mind… guys in that way?” At times Sirius was one of the brightest in the room but there were also many times he was probably one of the most dim witted men around.

[googlefont="Playfair Display"][googlefont="Alice"] Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful? Remus rolled his eyes and elbowed Sirius lightly. “Is that an offer? Sharing a bed with Sirius Black. I’m sure everyone would be jealous,” Remus said, his tone obviously sarcastic. Even still, that was one thing he might not say no to, but it wasn’t like Sirius would ever know that. Especially since anytime he would say something like that, it was in joke. Just like with James, though Remus didn’t harbor the same sort of crush for James as he did for Sirius. “A start?” Remus didn’t understand how that was picky, it was the bare minimum requirement he thought for a partner. “Wouldn’t you get bored if you were with basically the same girl every time, even if they were just slightly different?” While he wouldn’t be bored with the same girl every time, for someone like Sirius he figured it would be boring. Then again, he wasn’t Sirius and didn’t always understand how he thought. “Maybe something like, unique hair. Like a red-head. Or someone with bright lime green hair. Something that stands out?” Maybe that would help a bit if he was more specific. Then again, he wasn’t sure about that either. Either way, it would at least get Sirius looking and not quite so much on his case about it – not that he minded. Remus shook his head. “I thought I understood her. Now I know I definitely don’t.” He closed his eyes for a moment and then opened them again, taking a quick swig. They were always so close before they came to school, why did houses have to separate them so much? Why was she sorted into Slytherin? They hadn’t been that much different… or so he thought. Maybe he never really knew her at all. “Seriously? Pun intended.” He looked at him surprised that he didn’t seem to understand what that meant. “As in, I find men just as attractive as women. Being female isn’t a requirement for me to find someone sexually attractive.”
