RP: Remus and Peter Who: Remus Lupin and Peter Rumancek When: 4 October Where: The restaurant What: Two wolves meet Warning: None Though he'd only been onboard a few days, Remus had quickly discovered a preference for sitting in the restaurant when he needed to gather his thoughts. He could sit near one of the large windows that looked out into space and just think. There were a lot of things to think about, after all. He was, presumably, outside time and space entirely. There were wizards from his future and muggles from the past, as well as beings from other planets. From what he'd learned, the bus had already stopped in an alternate 1909 London. There was no telling where or when it would stop next.
And there were the personal revelations, too. He'd had a few days to digest the fact that Sirius hadn't been the traitor, that it had really been Peter all along. Putting that information together with what he knew, it meant they must have switched secret keeper. There was no other way for Peter to have been able to tell Voldemort where they were. And they hadn't told Remus, which meant they'd suspected him. His friends had actually thought he would betray them and the only reason had to be because he was spending time with his own kind.
Of course, none of this was what he wanted to think about that morning.
He'd actually come into the restaurant to see if he could finish the spell he'd been working on for the last few days. It wasn't a particularly tricky one, but he had yet to find just the right incantation so that the flames conjured would feel and behave exactly like real flames, but not do any true damage. A very real, complicated illusion tomimic the old legends of baelfire, as it were.
It was as he was double-checking some of his runic inscriptions in his journal that he became aware of another presence entering the restaurant. He'd caught brief hints at the scent around the ship since his arrival. But, Remus had yet to meet the owner of this particular scent that was at once both familiar and strange. Like the sensation of the moon's pull under his skin, something seemed just a bit off from this scent compared to what Remus would have expected from another of his kind.
Still, he waited until the other was closer before raising his head with a soft smile. "Hello. There's plenty of space," he nodded at the empty room around them, "if you'd like to join me."
