The lesson last night went well according to Headmaster Dumbledore. I'm glad my students got to see the effects of Lycanthropy first hand. I understand that a few of them were quite shaken up. That is probably for the best. I've seen some Muggle books that romanticize werewolves. Most likely some of my students have as well. Seeing it firsthand might let them know there is nothing nice about having your bones reform like that.
Sirius assumes I cast him off. I don't remember doing so. We have a little bit of a tiff and he goes and screws Lucius again. And he thinks I might have smelled it on him. How could I not? The nose of a wolf is extremely sensitive. Thanks to Severus potion that helps me keep my mind as a werewolf, I can today point to every student in attendance last night who has been, er, "active" recently and tell you who they were with. I would never do such a thing.
How could I have turned my "anger" towards Padfoot? I don't have anger towards him. I just wanted away from his smell mixed with so much of Lucius. I didn't think it would be very proper if the students saw a werewolf, who happened to be their Professor, being sick all over himself and the attending Professors.
Enough of that. Throw yourself into your class Remus. Find something to keep your mind busy. Don't think about...
