In which Severus Snape has lost both his parents, and things take a turn in his life, he creates unlikely allies, friends, communities and lovers.

Severus laughed, what a ridiculous life he has! He lives with McGonagall, is friends or whatever he is with the Marauders, and is being haunted by a weird entity for Merlin knows what reason.
"Go back to your dorm Black, lest Remus and Potter find out about your visit. Thank you for your concern, I'm fine." He said.
Severus looked up to find Black staring at him weirdly, he cocked his head to the side and asked, "What is it? Is there something on my face?"
Black shook his head, "You have a pretty laugh," he said.
Severus felt heat rush up to his neck and ears as soon as he heard that sentence --pretty! The audacity! His laugh is not pretty at all! Ugh! Nevermind, Severus could never get used to the behavioural changes of the Marauders, ever.
Remus Lupin held a terrible secret. One that, if slipped, would most certainly destroy his life for good. He'd end up in Azkaban- or worse. Which made him apprehensive to accept friendships. It wasn't fair not to be truthful with his friends. Despite his more reserved behaviour, the three boys he shares a dorm with refuse to let him isolate himself.
Read on as Remus does his best to fit in, gain friendships (and perhaps something more?) and get top marks. Delve into Sirius's free spirit and troubled childhood, James's struggles despite his privileged position in life, and meet Peter, who just wants happiness and to be like the rest of his dorm mates.
The story of everyone's favourite Marauders - as seen by me. Remus-centered, but also has other perspectives. Warning that I do not have a bunch of prewritten chapters and am publishing as I write. I started writing out of my love for the marauders and my need to see them be happy. Also just for the fun of it. I am also publishing on AO3, my @ is accio_moony_26
