A Living Nightmare.
Open RP, if anyone feels like taking on a slightly desperate Remus. If there's more than one person that wants to drop by to talk to him, each conversation will be treated separately. <3
------------------------------------------------------ Remus knows well enough that he should be in his room. He knows that his place right now is with his wife, ( Read more... )

Her lips twitch, humourlessly. "Oh, I didn't see him... well I did see him entering the dormitory, but he's head of the house, and I wasn't sure it was him, and that he was moving in, and..." She bites her lip, cutting herself out. "I couldn't see him. He had the cloak on. He talked to me afterwards though... I was not his 'mission'. It should have been me..." A hard breath through clenched throat, and she leans her head so towards him. "I... I will try not to." She means that, as her hands tighten around him.
"How are you?"
ooc: Livid. Yeah. If Remus gets Furry, then Tonks wants Dolohov. Badly.
If you want. I was thinking they could soak the parchment in some slow-acting poison that will make Dolohov lose the fingers with which he holds the parchment? But generally, if you'll be writing a response to Dolohov? Remus can very easily include that his wife will not rest till she has returned quid pro quo everything that is done to her son and husband.

Kill him, the beast inside him snarls very clearly in his ear. Kill him. Get him. Hunt him NOW. Blood. His blood. Severus' blood, it's only fair. KILL HIM. He sacrificed Teddy; now it's his turn.
There has only been very few instances when his anger flares this way; when he's so willing to give in to the beast he usually buries deep down when there's no full moon. Once had been with Peter at the shack. Another time with Bellatrix, when she had taken Harry. Then it had been with Fenrir. Now it's with Severus. He had touched his family. He had hurt his family. He was still hurting his wife.
But he pushes the feelings aside. Again. He buries it and ignores that desperate need somewhere in him, because his Dora needs him right now. His son needs him here when he returns.
"I am...not sure what to make of anything," he responded, his voice managing to hide everything. Heh, he's suddenly glad for so much practice he has had over the years on how to act normal when he's not. "I'm still...waiting for him to walk through the door."
ooc: She might have to remind him not to be selfish, then, because Remus wants both. And now. -_-
I honestly have no idea how to let him respond, especially because he doesn't want to worry anyone more than what they already are. Oi. Lemme think about this for a bit...? I need to figure out what he'd do once he's not so livid.

"He... That would be lovely, if he did, wouldn't it?"
ooc: *stares at his comment on Ted* No, he's not going alone. He just isn't. If he makes the thread locked, she's just going to go after him. And I'm sure you can see that.

"It would be." A beat. "It's foolish to think so, perhaps, but... I can't help it."
ooc: Actually, I think he'll just do a challenge post in HPSWS for now. If Dolohov shows up, then she can show up too. If not, it can serve as a way of him informing others of what he got.

Feeling the tremor still, she pulls back a little, to look at him. She'd... like to think of a way right now for him to be able to release that anger. But her mind's locked down. Room of Requirement? She blinks at her own thought.
"I really wonder what the Room of Requirement would hold for us, if we were to walk into it right now."
Oh yeah, her mind seems to be shooting random sparks. Just not anything really useful.
ooc: Ahh, challenge post. She'd show up, yes. If Dolohov does. Just hoping it won't mean more harm for Teddy... *wibbles*

But he trails off, not willing himself to continue; if he continues to get his hopes up, then...
...no. He just can't.
ooc: :X I hope not. But, like I said, if he doesn't? He could still tell her about the owl he got.
I have to log off for a bit, though, but I'll be back later. <3

I need your arms around me like never before.
ooc: Umgh. The way he phrased it, Tonks just couldn't stay off.
*hugs* Have a good time. I should get around to sleep... <333

"Of course, love," he murmurs into her hair. "But we will go to bed soon, too. You need to rest."
She had been hexed, after all; she needed rest. He would pick her up himself if he had to.

And it didn't work now.
His embrace did more good than her own mental propping.
"Thank you. And... bed, whenever you are ready. Don't want to take you away. Don't want to be leave you alone."
Picking her might not be a bad idea, although she'd be far from willing to ask for it. But...
"How about... sitting down on those steps...?"

He would be home soon.
Soon, he has to be back soon.
