Remus’ eyes roamed over Sirius’ face, looking for any sign that he was lying and had had something to do with Remus even being included in the first place. He found nothing, and accomplished nothing beyond making himself dizzy, finding Sirius so beautiful when he was grinning like that, and so utterly undeserving of it.
“Yeah,” he agreed, a little dazed. His smile pulled crooked, amplified by Sirius’ own. “I might have to mail my Ma a copy, she might actually care.”

It felt so absolutely surreal that Sirius would even get an opportunity like this and the chance to share that with Remus only made it all the better to Sirius. He honestly felt like he was flying and he just knew that nothing would be able to ruin his day.
“You should, I’m sure she will be thrilled,” he stated, knowing far too well how little his own mother would have cared, but he knew just how thrilled James’ folks were going to be, and he couldn’t wait to share it with them as well.

The baffled smile was painted across Remus’ features, almost deliriously. His mother had always cared, in her own way, but had never properly understood the potential merit of his work, besides keeping him out of the draft. A paper copy, however, she might understand. With everybody else so far away, he was so happy he had Sirius here to share the news.
“I can’t believe we’re going to get published before graduating,” he added, his mind getting stuck on the most trivial little details of it, still unable to properly fathom the full opportunity at once. “It’s not gonna say ‘doctors’ yet.”

Sirius so desperately wanted to reach out for Remus, to be able to even hold his hand or something simple like that, just wanting to press his appreciation into Remus’ skin. It helped that they were making their way back to their shared dorm, but when Remus was happy like this, Sirius always wanted to soak it up as much as he could.
“Mr. Lupin and Mr. Black also has a nice ring to it,” he said with a crooked grin, settling for just bumping his shoulder against Remus’, feeling entirely giddy as well.

Remus couldn’t help but let out a huffed laugh at that, still a little too shell-shocked by the news to properly laugh.
“Mate, we sound like kids,” he complained with joke exasperation; despite the otherwise formal prefix, using /mister/ in these academic settings always felt juvenile to Remus. He cast a sideways glance towards Sirius, a grin on his lips. “Or like our dads, which I think is even worse.”

Sirius couldn’t help but grin at that, definitely feeling that there was something juvenile in still having to go by mister in an academic setting, but it was all worth it if it meant that they were getting published.
When they finally reached the door to their dorm, Sirius was quick to unlock it and pull Remus with him inside.
“I don’t think that we should overthink it,” he stated with a grin, immediately reaching out for Remus, placing his hands on his hips and pulling him in close.
“I am just so happy that it’s with you,” he added with a warm smile that was so sincere that it almost broke him. To compensate, Sirius leaned in and kissed him.

The way Sirius’ words made something within Remus’ chest jump felt less like a skipped heartbeat and more like a jab between his ribs; it knocked the air out of his lungs, escaping him like a surprised little sound against Sirius’ lips.
Hit with the weight of just how intertwined their lives had become, it felt a little jarring, like the mere notion of their names being printed side by side finally made it obvious just how greedy he had been with Sirius’ attention. It was suddenly hard to justify it all without feeling deeply selfish, like he was taking advantage.
Determined to push the thought aside, Remus grabbed hold of Sirius’ jaw, kissing him back like he was trying to drown out the world.

______
When Sirius had invited Remus to join him at Lily and James’ for a celebratory dinner he hadn’t actually expected him to come. It took effort for Sirius to remember that he and Remus were not actually in a relationship, but he still felt that it was safe to be happy that Remus had wanted to join him. After all, it would feel wrong to celebrate their achievement without actually having Remus present as well.
That was how he and Remus had ended up on Lily and Jame’s couch, Sirius with Harry perched on his lap as they were chatting post dinner.
“I’m gonna go put the kettle on,” James stated, getting up from the couch as he did so, leaving a lingering touch to Lily’s shoulder as he did so.
“Remus, would you mind coming with and giving me a hand?”

For how much seeing Sirius with his godson had made Remus’ heart stutter in his chest, it had in equal measures been intimidating to be on the couch with them. While Sirius handled the toddler with ease, Remus felt wrongfooted and awkward whenever Harry reached out for him, unsure how to play along, only seeming amplifying the spell Sirius had on the kid.
Had Remus been propped up in a chair across the room he might have wanted to linger in the sight, but here and now, the offer to help out in the kitchen felt like a much needed break.
“Yeah, of course,” he said, a little flushed as he got up from his seat.
He cast a dazed little smile in Sirius’ direction, before making an awkward little gesture for James to go ahead, still unfamiliar in the house.

While Sirius was definitely not the same angry and depressed kid that James had first met all those many years ago, he could safely say that it was rare to see Sirius that happy.
Life had definitely been turning around for the both of them within the past few years, but James was painfully aware of just how much of Sirius’ happiness was linked to Remus.
As he lead Remus into the kitchen, James felt happy as well, glad that they would finally be able to put a face to the guy that Sirius had been talking so much about, and clearly not always on purpose. It had been even more thrilling to realise that Remus seemed like a genuinely good guy, and while James didn’t know Remus as well as he knew Sirius, it was clear that the feelings his best friend had for his flatmate was at least somewhat mutual.
“Not used to kids, yeah?” James asked with a crooked grin as he turned the kettle on, having been looking forward to getting a one on one conversation with Remus.
