James: Moony yk what I just realised? If Regulus married me, Sirius would officially be my brother-in-law. And when you marry Sirius we'd be some form of brother-in-laws too! We'd all finally be officially related!!!
Remus: Wait, yeah..Merlin, that'd actually be aces!! So then, if one of us winds up in Mungo's again, we won't have to argue to see them- we can just barge right in because we're officially family!
James: That's so fucking morbid. Moony, how did you even get there?
Sirius & Regulus, watching them from the shadows, unnoticed:
Regulus: So Remus actually has no idea about the ring you've been carrying around for more than 2 months, I presume?
Sirius, gazing fondly at Remus: *sighs* Yeah, no, I haven't asked yet nor has he found ou-... Wait, HOW THE FUCK DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THE RING??
Sirius lupin makes me happy

Sirius hates his last name. He always joked around by going by his friend's names instead.
Sirius Potter was the most common, of course. He was practically raised by the Potter's, he and James had been brothers for years of course he was a Potter.
Second was Pettigrew, mostly when joking around with Peter.
He'd make comments like "This is why it's so great to be a part of the Pettigrew family!" and "Don't you dare disrespect the Pettigrew Brothers!"
A handful of times he even used Lily's last name, referring to himself as Sirius Evans.
She finds it hilarious, as soon as she catches on that he hates his last name she starts calling him Evans too.
Whenever she'd pass by the group and greet James as Potter, she'd always make sure to reply to Sirius' "Hey, Evans!" With a "Hello, Evans." In return.
Every once in a while he used their other friend's names too; Meadowes, Longbottom, McKinnon, he went as far as to use McGonagall once and nearly got detention for a week.
But he never used Lupin.
Remus asks him one lazy Saturday morning as the group was sprawled across the furniture in the common room.
He'd wondered for years, they all secretly had, but it never meant enough to any of them to really ask.
"Why do you never go by Sirius Lupin?" Remus asked, filling the lull in conversation.
It was supposed to be a casual question, but there was nothing casual about the look Sirius gave him when he replied,
"Because you haven't asked me to marry you yet, Moons."
The room was silent. Remus and Sirius were staring at each other for a long time. Remus slowly stood up and walked over to him, kneeling down in front of his chair,
"Sirius, will you marry me?" He whispered.
"Of course, Remus." Sirius breathed.
Nobody else could tell if they were joking or not. They'd never once shown feelings towards each other, nothing more than what they normally did.
Remus wasn't even gay.
But then, all of the sudden, Remus and Sirius were found walking the halls hand in hand, placing gentle kisses on each other's cheeks.
They started sleeping in the same bed at night, Remus curled on his side with his nose nuzzled against Sirius' neck.
Sirius exclusively went by Sirius Lupin now, refusing to go by anything else. He also made it very clear to all of his suitors that he was engaged and off the market.
The others still couldn't quite tell how much further they would go for the bit, but they seemed happy?? So they were all happy too.
Immediately after graduation they got married and made it official. Everyone was kinda blown away, but then again, it was Remus and Sirius, they've kind of always been dating, even when they weren't.
The others finally asked years later if they'd been secretly dating prior to that, since it was the only thing that made sense.
Sirius shook his head, "No, I had no idea Rem liked me back. I was just really in love with him."
Remus nodded, explaining he wasn't actually sure if Sirius was joking or not either at first, but he was too in love to question it, and took the chance he got.
It ended up working out, Sirius was now- in all ways including legally- Mr. Sirius Lupin.
And he'd never been happier.

Amen to the rings
Sirius wears rings just to see the way Remus stares at his hands like they’re a religious experience.
Lily would try and go to St Mungos on the claim of insanity after realizing she liked James
what non-jily fans don't understand about lily realising she has feelings for james is that the whole deal was NOT cute. lily was screaming and trying to jump from the astronomy tower from the embarrassment while mary and dorcas tackled her down and marlene was pissing her ass off in the background. THAT is jily
