Summary: As Remus Lupin’s time at Hogwarts is coming to an end and the harsh realities of the difficult, war-torn future ahead begin to seep into the now, he finds himself wishing things were a little different. He hadn’t, however, expected the universe to pay attention to him. And not quite so literally.
Notes: Thanks to the amazing SB for their phenomenal beta work, without whom this piece would make less sense than McGonagall/Umbridge, and to Team Moon for your general encouragement and presence, even during the quiet times.
Prompt:
58 - "Things are as they are. Looking out into the universe at night, we make no comparisons between right and wrong stars, nor between well or badly arranged constellations." - Alan W Watts
