Countdown to small gifts 3/7: Head canon

[smallgiftsmods]

Welcome, folks! Every year at small gifts, we start off the holiday season with a week's worth of discussion posts. It's a chance to get to know other participants (or say hi again), meet our readers (hi, readers! we love you!), and while away the hours before December 1. We'll have one topic per day until November 30. Come on over and introduce yourself on our Day 1 post!

Oh! Oh! Head canon! I have a ton, but here's just some:

-Sirius is very smart and can do just about anything he puts his mind to. In particular, he likes experimenting with potions and learns how to make the Wolfsbane for Remus. When Harry lives with him (which *does* happen) he learns to become a very good cook.

-Sirius and Remus were working together in GoF. In the book, Sirius mentions things that he's learned, that he missed while in Azkaban. I think that it was Remus filling him in. Maybe they had a mirror or something that they were communicating by. And of course meeting for trysts- I mean, strategy sessions ::coughs::. Sirius certainly doesn't need Dumbledore to tell him just where "Lupin's" is at the end of the book!

- Sirius, well known for his supposed crimes, has a lot of female fans in the wizarding world, who can't resist such a handsome "bad boy".

-Remus can never resist teasing Sirius. It's what he lives for.

I also have loads of head canon for James, but you asked for just Remus and Sirius, so I will stop!

Oh, and I just happened to turn to this bit of head canon in my R/S notebook, and couldn't resist adding it:

Re their relationship with Hagrid: James and Sirius immediately took to him at Hogwarts because he went into the Forbidden Forest and was therefore Cool. Remus, however, stayed away from him. He knew of Hagrid's love of magical creatures, and he thought that Hagrid would probably figure out his secret. Not that he didn't trust him, but he knew how Hagrid accidentally let slip things. He also didn't fancy Hagrid trying to make a pet of him!

That is an *awesome* headcanon.

This is too funny. Doris Purkiss can be their club president!

I love Remus teasing Sirius. And Sirius teasing back a bit, but I think he actually quite enjoyed Remus teasing him.

Agreed 100% about Remus teasing Sirius, and Sirius loving every moment of it. Also agree that they are together in GoF. They have to be.
