Petition for people to stop saying that Remus Lupin belonged at Hogwarts because he actually refused to take his potion to stop his transformation and put the lives of students in danger and nearly literally killed the Golden Trio for crying out loud.
Can I add that Severus made the potion (when he didn’t have to except maybe to please his overlord Dumbledore) and saved the golden trio from said negligence and somehow he’s the bad guy.
I don’t really blame Remus as much for forgetting to take the potion that one time, as I do for his not telling Dumbledore all school year that Sirius was an Animagus and could get into the school that way. Even though he, and everyone else, fully believed that Sirius was guilty of everything he’d been accused of. Despite believing that Sirius was on his way to Hogwarts to kill Harry. Even after Sirius slashed the Fat Lady’s portrait and stood over Ron’s bed with a knife. He still didn’t tell.
And why? Because he hoped Sirius was innocent? No. Remus said he convinced himself that Sirius was getting into the castle “using Dark Arts he learned from Voldemort,” so he did believe Sirius was guilty. No, he risked the lives of the Hogwarts students and staff, and of Harry in particular because he couldn’t stand to lose Dumbledore’s trust. Trust he has already betrayed during his school days by leaving the Shrieking Shack as a fully transformed werewolf with the Marauders despite “near misses, many of them.” Trust that he betrayed again by keeping this information to himself despite the risk he believed it posed to others. Trust he didn’t even deserve.
