Random drabble! SS/RL and some silliness.

Can't quite recreate the gist of what spawned (heh) this--it involved Snape, and Lupin, and Snape/Lupin, and mpreg, and the postpartum behavior of werewolves, and...well, I didn't exactly write this so much as compile it. It belongs to me, gmth, maeglinyedi, fluffyllama, nimori, and blackdracaena.

"Morning. Any of that chocolate chip ice cream left in the icebox?"

"You and your untimely cravi--"

The tea mug slipped from Severus's hands and shattered on the floor.

"You're...you're..."

"Hm?" said Remus, barely sparing the mess of shattered ceramic and hot water a glance. "Oh, yes, that."

"'That'? Lupin, you're--you've--"

"Father of my children and he still calls me by my last name," Remus said, shooting a winning smile over his shoulder before returning to rummage in the freezer.

"Ch-children, plural?"

"Why, yes." Remus--the clearly-no-longer-pregnant Remus--turned back from the icebox, chocolate-chip-festooned prize in hand, and crossed to the drawer for a spoon.

"You had them? This morning?"

"Functional term is 'whelped.'" He swallowed ice cream before continuing. "All six of them."

Seveurs realized he'd better sit. "Are they--upstairs?"

"Ah. Not exactly. I ate them."

Severus hadn't believed his jaw could fall farther, but clearly something had prompted Remus to shrug one shoulder and say, "Well, it's hungry work, you know. Mmm. Ice cream's great for afters."

Ha ha ha ha ha! That's fucking hilarious! I love it! It also reminds me strongly of a scene from the epilogue of my fic, Dreaming in Colour, which I quote to you now (note: S & R have just returned from tracking down the last of the DE's, with R in a controllable-werewolf potion deal):

Remus shifted uncomfortably. "I'm - er - not all that hungry, actually," he said, sounding a bit awkward.

Harry looked pointedly at Severus. "You're not?" he repeated.

Severus looked up and grinned. "He's full."

"Full of what?" Draco asked.

The grin grew. "He just ate Wormtail this morning."

Harry just stared, somewhat incredulously. Then he looked at Draco, and they started to laugh. "You did?" Harry directed at his godfather. "I thought you didn't like eating people. In werewolf form, of course - I know you don't like eating people in your normal state."

Remus' face had reddened, but he smiled, not looking away from his tea. "He asked for it," he said.

A confused exchange of looks. "He did?" Draco said. "What did he do?"

"No, I mean literally," Remus said, looking up now, and grinning fiendlishly. "He said, and I quote: 'Eat me'."

Severus started to laugh, too. "So, he did," he said.

Harry wiped away tears of mirth. "You're right, I do want to see that for myself," he said. "What did you do, while it was going on?"

"Me? I just stood there and laughed," Severus said, still grinning. "He says he feels sick now, though."


Three cheers for Remus! :) I loved it.
