Summary

“They’re… chaos,” Remus said firmly. “And chaos is—”“Rock and roll.”He looked at Sirius sharply, and for once, matched his grin. “Yeah.”“Maybe that’s my excuse then,” Sirius said. “I cause a bit of chaos now, and maybe one day, it’ll turn into rock and roll.”After losing his mother at age eleven, Remus has spent the better part of the last four years bouncing from school to school or else running around London and pretending as though he wasn't the kind of well-bred boy his father brought him up to be. Now, with his chances all run out, Remus is sent to Hawkings Independent School as a last-ditch effort to clean up his act. There he meets the very people who will set up the rest of his life, and is forced to confront the pieces of himself he'd long thought had been lost.(genuinely not apologising for the slow-burn in this fic anymore. You've been warned <3)

This is amazing!! Super curious to see where the story goes. I know I have a lot of catching up to do lol. Even tho I don’t know these characters you did such a great job at making me feel exactly how Remus is feeling, and see it so clearly in my head! Wonderful work ❤️

in my year instead of calling someone a swot we’d call them a scholar because our geo teacher told us thats what a scholar was in like y8 so everyone’d just be going around saying ‘oh oh scholaar scholaar’
