Summary
An impasse.
That’s what Regulus said.
James had to look it up just to make sure he was understanding right. Because he hadn’t thought he was stupid.
Impasse: a situation in which no progress is possible, especially because of disagreement; a deadlock.
James had already known that, but he’d been hoping that he was wrong.
Because it sounded… real, final.
“Then I don’t know what to tell you, James. I guess we’re at an impasse.”
He didn’t say go. He didn’t tell James they were done. He didn’t say come here either. But here James was.

Summary
The Gryffindor common room, a party, and spin the bottle.
“Who are you trying to kiss, Padfoot?”
The air stills, stifling, and Remus is caught in the turnover of every lyric, the scratch of the record player and the soundless lull as it ends, waiting to be flipped. He stares at Sirius.
Sirius blinks, sucks his cheek between his teeth and raises his eyebrows. “It’d ruin the fun if I told, wouldn’t it?”- Language:

Summary
“What do you want me to do?” Remus says, tiredly. All he wants is to curl up on his bed. Smoke a pack of cigarettes. Get drunk. He can’t stop looking at Harry.
“Remus...” Dumbledore is gentle. Remus hates when he has that tone. Hates that he knows it will hurt. “There is no one else left.”
A bitter laugh escapes him. “So you’ll curse the poor thing with a werewolf for a guardian?”
