"Oh? What's your specialty subject, then?" Remus sounded like he was asking the bloke what he'd do as a Mastermind contestant. (He'd caught the new series on the telly. It wasn't the same.)
Still, Remus always felt a kinship with tutors and teachers: he'd taught a few students whose names James had chucked his way, back in the day, and well, he'd sort of ended up a teacher. A version of him, anyway. Sometimes thinking too much about it felt like stepping on his own grave. In his own time, he'd never gotten too close to any of the students he tutored: that way led possible discovery, but he wasn't a prude about socialising with students or keeping strict boundaries or anything. It would have been nice to make friends.
Following the other man's gaze, Remus' own face brightened in a pleased grin: "Oh, Sunny! I know her! We seem to bump into each other a fair amount. It's lovely to meet another of her friends." And he knew Felix as well, but Felix wasn't the sort of person he would blather on about.
