"It's the lowest bar in the world. So low, you'll trip over it." Remus didn't know what his type was, he never really felt much for girls but then, he never really thought about it. To him, dating seemed like such a far off and impossible concept that it didn't even connect as something he could do. Getting close to people had it's risks and he didn't think he could keep it all up like that.
"My ideal date is someone who buys me chocolate." That was about all he could think of. He knew blokes were supposed to buy the chocolates and all but he felt like equality. He wanted chocolate too. "That's about it. I guess I also got a pretty low bar."
"I feel that's fair. Nothing more attractive than chocolate anyway." Especially for Remus, Sirius knew all too well. "I'd buy you a whole castle out of chocolate. You'd have to eat it quickly though, might melt." Perhaps more of a winter project.
"You know, Moony, the right girl isn't gonna care." Sirius wasn't always the most sensitive, but he did sense he should say something about that. "Like us. We don't care." Honestly, they mostly thought it was brilliant. In a way. Having an excuse to sneak out once a month, have such fun? Sirius loved it. Although, of course, he was aware that it was about more than just fun for Remus. He just preferred not to think about that too much.
"I'd like a castle made of chocolate." He wondered if Sirius would do that for him if he was a girl. Was that a weird thought? Maybe. He liked chocolate, he liked his mate ... he felt like it was just trying to get the two to collide and happen.
Looking at Sirius, he smiled and nodded, trying not to think about the fact that whoever married him would always face discrimination. That he'd never have a good job cause of it. His child would probably end up cursed like him, living a miserable life too... he wasn't exactly a winner, as far as husband material went. Still, he didn't want to burst the bubble. He liked that Sirius cared, it made him feel better about it all. "You just like having an excuse to muck about out of hours. I dunno how many birds are gonna want to learn to transform and run around like that when it's pissing it down or cold. It's more of a lad thing, ain't it?"
"I dunno. Depends on the person, I guess. Or you just shack up with a lad, solves all your problems." Well. Not really, but that particular one. "My uncle Alphard has done that. I kind of like him? Which is so weird, always freaks me out when I like a family member."
Perhaps not the usual reaction to liking family, but true enough anyway. "You shouldn't worry so much. Way more people like to break rules than you think. You'll find so many that wanna much about with you at all hours. Just gotta give it a chance. Ooooor, even better, you and me stay bachelors forever. Live in Lily's and James' basement, once he's worn her down. It'll be grand."
"I think it'd give my mom a heart attack if I told her I was shacking up with a bloke." Talk about a dodgy subject in the muggle world. Then again, if she could love him as a wolf, he didn't doubt she'd find a way to love him no matter what. He just didn't want to add more differences and make them more disappointed. He wanted more normalcy, not less. "I think bachelor suits me better. Sounds way cooler too."
He smirked playfully and bumped into Sirius, pretty happy with the idea. "We'd be well fed and looked after. James is minted so we'd never go hungry. He could buy us chocolate frogs all the time." Well, a boy could dream. "Lily would learn to love us."
