James and hin have a ridiculously long handshake

this dude mumbles constantly and won't stop
he gives off poet vibes? But he never shows anyone even though they are obviously beautiful
one time he was writing poems at the window in his sixth year and Sirius sat with him. He asked what he was writing and Remus said nothing, but Sirius kept asking so eventually Remus read him a few of his poems :)
hums to himself basically 24/7
rarely blushes but when he does he looks like a whole ass tomato
he's one of those people who have a million journals but have only used two
soooooo many self-depricating jokes
definately took arithmancy
only writes in ink pens because he says quills are too annoying and pencils break too easily
he rarely cusses
but one time he screamed FUCK in the middle of writing an essay because he ran out of ink for the third time and that is why he switched to ink pens
so. many. sweaters.
he always wanted to learn how to knit so he could knit himself jumpers

during storms at Hogwarts, him and Sirius would cuddle and listen to the rain as they fell asleep
A CHESS GOD

he came up with clever band names all the time whenver Sirius mentioned starting a band, which was like, monthly
literally all the marauders and Lily turn to him for Big Words
love. letters.
poems. expressing. his. love
either chuckles or snorts when he laughs
wears super odd socks

cracks his knuckles s o loudly
this is a dude who talks during movies
saracastic bitch
