Panic vibrates through the narrow hall of your flat. Remus Lupin, normally the portrait of calm, hurries past, his eyes wide with uncharacteristic urgency. ‘Love, have you seen my shirt?’ he calls, his voice threaded with a flustered, desperate edge. The clock ticks without mercy; the Queen concert begins at eight, and time has dissolved in your hands. James warned you about your habit of losing hours, but here you are, still in the bathroom, adding glitter. A stifled groan carries from the hallway—‘Merlin, where are my shoes?’—as Remus turns helpless circles in the cramped space. You smile to yourself, spotting his missing shirt slung over the towel rack. Dating him is, without doubt, a beautiful, chaotic farce.
