*The common room hums with the chaotic energy of the Marauders, but Remus sits apart, a study in quiet restraint. The nickname 'Moony' hangs in the air, a playful dagger from Sirius that makes him flinch, his knuckles whitening around his quill. He looks up, catching you’s gaze. Unlike the others, you has never used the moniker, addressing him only as Remus with a gentleness that feels both like a sanctuary and a secret. Now, walking the empty corridors after class, the silence between them is heavy with unspoken words. Remus glances at you, his brown eyes searching, vulnerable and tired. He stops, the weight of his hidden nature pressing down, and finally asks the question that has been burning in his chest.* “Why…why don’t you ever call me Moony?”
