Another month. Another moon.

Though he understood the potion worked now, was a miracle if he was honest, Remus still wasn't interested in taking too many chances. Not until he had a few months without incident under his belt. So, he still planned on using the Pitch to transform and run with the others. It would do him good to stretch and run. He'd noticed the previous month that the wolf form had the exact opposite reaction to the transformation as his human form. Where the transformation at the end of the night left him exhausted and barely able to move, the wolf form benefited from running and gently working pained muscles. It was probably something the curse needed to survive. No use having a violent predator that couldn't spread the infection of the curse because he was in too much pain to move. Still, it was something Remus had never noticed until the previous moon.

He'd offered to let Fenrir join them and he'd taken Remus up on that offer this month. So, there would be two of them, plus Padfoot and Prongs.

This could either go really well, or terribly wrong. But, Remus was hopeful in favour of the former.

Parvati/Fenrir

Parvati waved at the other men, but she wasn't here for Remus. Not that she disliked him. On the contrary, she had liked him as a professor, even if this wasn't the same man and she had barely spoken to him, but Remus had people here while Fenrir didn't.

"Hey there, let me give you a hand, yeah? You can put your arm around me and I'll help you get to your room," she said with a soft smile. The howling turned screams of the transformation were enough to tell her how painful it must be without her having to witness it. "We can go as slow as you need, maybe get you some tea in you before you fall asleep. Tea fixes everything."

Parvati/Fenrir

Fenrir ached. He always did after the full moon. The transformations were always bad but at least this time he wasn't covered in scratches and blood. And some of the euphoria of keeping his own mind and not being alone had also survived the transformation. All in all, it left him feeling a little off kilter, tired, sore and with the sensation that he smelled like wet dog.

As a result, when he saw Parvati was there, waiting with a smile and willing to help, he couldn't help just gaping at her for a moment before he broke out into a tired smile before and letting himself lean on her.

"Hey," he said with a soft sigh. "You're here. This is nice. You smell nice. Wait, I shouldn't have said that. That was a weird thing to say." He stopped, aware that he was rambling, then tried again. "Sorry. Wolf is still a little close to the surface and that was a very wolf thing to say. Tea would be very nice. Tea and dry and something soft to sleep on."

"What? You're looking at me like you can't believe I'm here." She knew that it was exactly that, and she couldn't blame him after all that he'd told her. "I told you that you were stuck with me, and that means helping when you need help."

Parvati laughed at the compliment. "I do smell nice, thank you for noticing. It's the lavender soap I use and I also have a perfume that smells divine. It stays on you for a whole day, even after a shower. I don't even know where the house-elves got it, but I have to find out how to get more."

She walked slowly, keeping his pace. "Fenrir, men don't need to be werewolves to say all sorts of things to a woman. I've heard much worse so don't worry about it, but yes, let's get you inside, a quick cleaning spell a drying one and then you can get into bed. I'll hold on the fort at training, although they really should give up with that. James will be half asleep too."

"Never had anyone before," Fenrir said with simple honesty. He'd stopped going to St Mungos after the first few months, hating the looks they gave him. So he'd always been on his own afterwards.

"You smell nice to the wolf as well," he said. "That's a bit different." He scrunched up his face for a moment. "Well, Remus says the wolf is just me but it's never felt that way. But he knows more than me."

"Mmm, clean and dry," he mumbled. "It was fun last night, you know. Love that potion. Reckon Ron might have it right with his idea of using my wolf on the full moon to patrol or whatever."

Parvati smiled at him. "You have someone now. I'll help as much as I can and you don't have to do this alone, okay?" She knew she couldn't undo the damage done, but she could help prevent the damage that turned this person into the feral beast they had come to know while in school.

She chuckled. "I think Remus is right. The wolf is part of you, and I'm glad he approves,but maybe you can try telling me when you don't look like you want to pass out, yeah? Buy me a drink or dinner." Not that it would happen since they had everything for free, but it was easier to joke about that than concentrating on the pain he might be suffering.

"I'm glad that the Wolfsbane is helping you keep control, and that would be really good, maybe even going into the forest, but let's try a few more cycles of the moon when nothing happens, yeah? There are a lot of people out there with you and if something goes wrong-" It was much easier if it didn't happen in the forest where they couldn't help. "We can worry about that later, for now, let's get you to bed."
