we are a low word count, any level of experience rp set in harry's 3rd year at hogwarts. students and adults alike are welcome! given we are set fairly early in the series, everything that happens from this point on will be up to us! perhaps sirius black will be cleared and peter arrested, or perhaps something darker lurks in the shadows...

"All right," she intoned softly. What he was saying was making sense. "But if that's the case, then it's my fault, not yours. I'm not regretting it, but I did distract you. So we were both selfish."
Constant vigilace; she sighed. She couldn't help it though... he was just so... enticing. She understood what he was saying. Her lips twitched and she placed her hand over her heart, resting on something hidden there. "I'll keep my distance if that's what you want. But don't you dare think that this is over. Dumbledore brought me here to work with everyone else and that includes you. So I'm not sure how much distance it's going to be."
She looked furious like she had more to say, but instead, she turned and left the room and a door slammed.
“Dora –“ He began but the door had slammed shut and he just… covered his face for several moments. He was such an idiot. Such a moron. He – He had let himself get too deep in this and he was upset at himself. Now she was saying it was her fault too. It was his fault for letting this happen. He should’ve said no. He should’ve stopped himself. He took in a deep breath and left the cottage, forgetting his jacket there and quickly made his way back up to the school.
While in his office, he tried to focus on grading his papers, but he couldn’t seem to focus, wanting to have said more to her. He pulled out a fresh piece of parchment and started writing.
Dearest Dora,
I want to apologize for my behavior. It isn’t your fault. It’s mine. Don’t blame yourself. I love you too much to let you wallow in blaming yourself for something like this. I just need some time to understand these feelings and how to control them. I can’t keep letting them control me completely. I don’t want to stay away from you entirely. However, I do think we should see a little bit less of each other. It’s become too intense too fast for me to cope. I’ve never had a relationship like this before, nothing so amazing and distracting.
I love you Dora. I’m sorry.
Yours Always, Remus
Picking up another fresh piece of paper he stared for several moments, this one taking much longer to write, each word taking minutes almost to eventually write down.
Father,
I know I am not the best son. I still am angry for what happened to me when I was younger. You were my father and supposed to protect me. For ages now, I convinced myself I wasn’t angry at you. But I am. And I am sorry about that.
Despite this, I want your advice. I would also like Amelie’s advice as well. I’ve fallen in love with a much younger woman, but every time I’m with her, I can’t focus on anything but her. I love her so much that it hurts to be away from her, and yet I can’t seem to stop pushing her away. I want her to be happy, but I’m sure she would be happier without me. She doesn’t agree. How do you focus on things you need to focus on when you’re around someone you love so intensely? I have not had a relationship like this partially due to the fact I’ve pushed everyone away and now it is coming to bite me in the ass.
I need your advice. It’s not my place to be asking this of you after everything I have put you through. Please. What am I supposed to do? I’m lost.
Remus
He looked at the two letters, calling a couple school owls to his window in his office. With a shaky hand, he gave each letter to an owl and sent them off. Afterwards he sat down and graded his papers with surprising speed. He was incredibly nervous, but that anxiety of wondering what his answers would be made him work faster, focus better for some reason.
