Summary
Ever since Sirius Black found out Remus Lupin has a crush, he’s been determined to find out who it is. A process during which he finds out that everyone is in love with Remus, guys can like guys, and maybe these feelings of jealousy he is feeling aren't exactly normal for a totally heterosexual friendship?
Basically, Sirius has gay realisations and finds out he is in love with his best friend. Of course, he’s an oblivious idiot, making everything more complicated. A lot of jealous Sirius and some jealous Remus as well. Because well, what’s the fun in having them communicate normally, right? (They do communicate eventually I promise). (Also I’m bad at summaries I promise there’s a lot more to it, there’s spin the bottle, there’s tight bell bottoms, there’s getting out of the shower ogling, there’s dancing and eyeliner) (honestly it’s all there, cliches are cliches because they're great).
