a pearl in his whiskey — remus lupin ♡
marauders pirate!au series masterlist
pirate captain!remus lupin x tavern keeper!fem!reader, humour, swearing, alcohol, pirate appropriate violence and blood
prologue | part i
𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝐢𝐢
salty wind stung your cheeks, biting into the skin there, as dark clouds threatened to pour overhead.
the coastal market was sprawling, you’d never crossed it all in one go before. it would take a full day to properly explore.
explore. you liked that idea. but it wasn’t plausible.
“d’ya want to go back? i’ll walk you, if you want.” james offered.
the two of you had been searching for remus for hours, and you had meant to open up your tavern for the evening for about that time too.
but you found yourself declining.
you’ve always been this way, have to see things through to the end, you convinced yourself. tried to.
you knew really your concern wasn’t rooted in leaving the task unfinished, but rather where the charming pirate captain was. if he was safe.
james seemed to note your worry, “he won’t’ve made a move with lils yet. not without us all.”
you went for a smile, but were slightly too tight lipped from fighting a frown, “ay. he’s probably waiting for me to open up shop so he can get his ale.”
both of you froze in place, looking away from the gutted fish being sold in front of you. james scoffed, “of course. he probably is.”
you’d been joking. but you’d also been correct. when you arrived home, remus was waiting at the door, brimming with frustration.
“ah, potter, i’m sorry. i didn’t think-” you turned and james winked at you before slipping down an alley leading back to the docks.
remus softened at the sight of you, but there was a certain haste he approached you with that made you wonder if he was mad.
he grabbed your wrist, but it was a gentle hold, “where were you?”
you smiled at the irony, “looking for you. all morning, pretty much.”
he tilted his head as he looked down at you, grip turning affectionate, “i’ll help you open up.”
it was quiet, flipping open latches and window boards. inside, candles were lit in a peaceful lull of conversation. you served him his ale, which he nursed carefully, and prepared a stack of glasses.
“lily’s out.”
your hands stilled slightly, but you forced yourself to smile. it wasn’t insincere, this was a good thing. james had chattered away about the redhead all morning; you felt like you knew her yourself.
“good. did my information prove useful?”
remus nodded, gazing into his drink with slightly upturned lips, “oh yeah, absolutely. couldn’t have done it otherwise. we’ve... got to get out of town though. i don’t know when we’ll be back.”
you bit your tongue then, physically too, and a metallic taste filled your mouth. you traced the knots in the wood of your bar with an idle finger, wordlessly sliding drinks out to a slow but steady stream of incoming customers.
eventually, you leant on your elbows opposite the pirate and sighed, “can i see you off tonight?”
he took a breath and reached to cover your hand with his own, a dare, “please.”
the ache in your chest was unidentifiable. remus had disrupted your day to day. it was something exciting. he was something exciting. but it wasn’t just the thrill that drew you in. it was his rarely heard laugh, cocky smirk, strong jaw, roving eyes. the slight promise of a darkness sheathed with his rapier, stowed with his pistols.
“i’ll lock up early.”
your patrons might not be impressed, which remus cautioned you of, but you shrugged. they’d have you for months to come. remus would have you for only hours now.
but before you had the chance to shut up for the night, the locally assigned authorities were infiltrating. they walked in all too calmly, but their fingers itched and inched towards the guns at their waists. beady eyes swept your tavern hungrily. remus grabbed his hat and slipped into your storeroom, upon your command, without question.
your customers shifted uneasily. the town had been begging for a change in power for some time, though the policemen would not give it up. some of the shadier regulars slithered out undetected, only because they weren’t the prey of the night.
the leading man, you recognized him to be the self-proclaimed lieutenant sarquin, slammed a meaty fist and his drawn weapon onto your bar. you frowned.
“i ask you to be mindful, sir, that this is old wood now. it cannot withstand a beating.”
he snarled, jeering and mocking, “alright girly, we’ve got no time for stalling. where’s lupin? and don’t lie.”
your poker face unmatched, you shrugged coyly, “i’m afraid i can’t tell you, sir. ask any one of my customers the same, if you’d like.”
they nodded at you firmly with discretion, loyal to the woman pouring their drinks and asking after their children, waving at the market, accompanying them when lonely. even the whalers you avoided on demand of your nostrils, even they were prepared to defend you there.
mutters erupted over the room. remus lupin? pirates were in town?
the authorities growled, milling into your attending customers to grill them individually.
“this is my establishment, sir, and i would like to be closing. will this be long?”
sarquin ignored your question, opting for one of his own, “can you read, girl?”
you jutted your chin towards the book at your elbow, “ay. my father taught me.”
you received no further reply.
they appeared on the verge of retreat when one stomped towards your backroom and swung the door open dramatically.
unfortunately, standing among the barrels of produce was pirate captain remus lupin, pistol in hand, scowling darkly.
“couldn’t just let us leave town, ey? had to save your pride, your face before these people who don’t care?”
they did not rise to remus’ taunt, opening fire. the commotion must have spread down to the docks and around town fast, because remus’ crew turned up fast.
you were ducked beneath your bar, searching the floor for your musket stored beneath a loose floorboard.
when you rose with it, you could see blood on your walls. dripping.
how dare they?
remus was preparing to flee, you could see that. what you didn’t expect was for him to stand in front of you, hit an official over the head with his pistol butt, and shout over the racket, “come with us!”
you gaped at him, moving around his side to face the man, “i can’t!”
“i know! but do it anyway!”
he saw you shake your head and knew he could not convince you, even if the lull of your heart thrummed at the adventure.
remus turned from the gunfire to hold your cheek in his hand, “i’ll bring you back something pretty.”
you lifted yourself to the bar, hiking your skirts above your ankles and shooting a window out, yelling, “stop it!”
half the officials were panting on the floor, afflicted with assorted wounds or death, and you could see sirius black soaking through a bandage from a previous injury. miraculously, no civilians had been harmed.
remus looked apologetically at you, then averted your gaze and nodded for his crew to round things up. the police missed this interaction, too busy glaring at you.
“down, wench, this is our business.”
you resisted the urge to shoot them, “this is my tavern. do not cause a commotion in here. take your business away.”
they grumbled, sarquin gesturing for his men to take you down from where you stood so they could finish what they started. you cocked your gun, ready to defend your establishment.
one of your customers then stood, smashing his glass and throwing you a coin for it, holding the jagged edge up, “you lord your power over us everywhere else, leave us to drink and laugh in peace.”
they could see a full riot was going to be on their hands if they did not retreat now. so, they turned,
“let’s take this outside then lads.” one shouted.
but remus and his crew were gone.
you tried to ignore the stabbing in your chest. they were gone. driven out by the tryannical power trip these men lived on.
as you looked around at your fellow inhabitants of the town, disgruntled and covered in gunpowder and grime, you weren’t thinking perfectly clearly.
what you were thinking of was remus. the awe he inspired. the leadership and charisma he exuded. you thought of that pull in your mind towards running with him.
it was apparent to you what needed to happen here, in a town that had been opressed by self instated power for too long.
you yelled ‘charge’. and everyone followed you.

Alrighty!! I got caught up formatting a little easter egg answer version of this poem for those who are aware of my systemhood. I’m certain not many will click, because I don’t think I told folks in plural aside from my bio.
But! Back at it again with @skylerwitherspoon n’s prompts! Tonight I’ve written a longer one for Prompts 20.
Enjoy! Alt text goes over Discord’s character limit, so let’s see how Tumblr alt text handles it-!
Oohhhhkay…so not even Tumblr alt text can handle this poem. So I’ll drop the alt text below.
FluxCore
[20. Write a poem about your gender.]
I, Mx. Whisper, have many genders. /
As the idea of it all is a construct of a lack of fluidity. /
I’m the flow the oceans waves. /
The cascading of the waterfalls /
soaking boat riders in a blissful wash. /
I’m the apparition of the Void, /
that’s just a little guy. /
A fuzzy little cat of the darkness. /
I’m the moon and the stars /
that you shoot meteors across. /
I’m the hobbit underneath the grass mounds, /
Gazing up at passerby through a mosaic window on the ceiling. /
I’m the creature living in the closet, /
Scarred and horrifying /
But is quite wholesome that comforts you on scary nights. /
I’m the stink stink just doing their thing in that there corner. /
I’m the cyborg who’s got his eye out for men; /
Feasting on popcorn as tea spills. /
Mischievously pranking children as a fitted sheet monster; /
Only seeking cuddles and tickle matches in dominance. /
I’m the big brother ready to swing and box. /
I’m the stripper bratty to the lot. /
I’m the drag queen that dresses in hot pink hoochie shorts; /
To the funky Mettaton EX theme. /
I’m the man giving a Megan Thee Stallion-worthy booty performance. /
I’m the recluse in the woods. /
Deep in a book, written in Braille. /
I’m the linguist who fascinates herself in the many calligraphic forms. /
I’m the nameless princess who grew to Duchess. /
I’m the mother of your children. /
I’m the warrior leading armies in the night; /
By the glow of my bioluminescent wings en mass. /
Close your eyes and trust in pixie dust. /
Diplomacy is key. /
I’m the erosion manipulated by your corruption. /
I’m the sky clouded over and misty. /
I’m the tears you shed in gold sunlight. /
How soft a pillow, am I, Mama? /
I’m the geeky gadgets of your endeavors. /
I’m the large platforms you wear on your soles. /
I’m the collar adorning your neck. /
I’m the goggles that snap pictures of your fire poses. /
Slaying your competition in your worth, Your Grace! /
I’m the clicking of your mouse. /
I’m the tapping of your keyboard. /
I’m the manager of your chaos, /
Wearing bunny suits and buck teeth. /
I’m the children of the playground. /
I’m the singing of the birds. /
I’m the climbing up trees to read a book about peace. /
Hey look! A sunset! /
The others going home. /
This is our space. /
The children outcasted from the village. /
I’m the reading in your ears. /
I’m the booping of noses. /
I’m the squishing of slime and swishing of tentacles in the ocean. /
I’m the big hoodie that covers your hands; /
Obviously too big but that’s the point. /
I’m the Death that draws near. /
Not literally but ego-wise. /
I’m the owl that escapes your trap. /
I’m the wings beating in the air. /
I’m the heartbeat within your eggs. /
I’m the goth besties with emo girls. /
Alternative is fun, even with the skulls. /
What? They’re great for mixing in. /
I’m the tinking of glasses. /
I’m the foam from your beers. /
I’m the ice in the shaker, /
with your drink being chilled. /
I’m the warmth of the hearth. /
The softness of clouds. /
The sleek of the silk. /
The Jester in your eyes. /
The screams in your mind. /
The turmoil in one party. /
I’m the boy that starts the fight; /
and the girl that finishes it. /
Settle down or take it outside! /
Staying sharp these days, hmm?
I’m the sizzle of hot in cold. /
The chinking of metal. /
The sigh from your chest. /
The sweat dropping from your brow. /
The sailor-born swear of frustration. /
I’m the coin tossed to your butcher. /
I’m the blade holding your fate. /
I’m the hammer that broke the anvil. /
I’m the one who snores deep and loud. /
A hard day at the forge earns you great sleep. /
Even if you’re napping on a customized warhammer. /
It’s comfortable. /
I’m the brood that has seen Death itself. /
I’m the medium who heard all. /
I’m the mirror you dance in. /
You’re doing great with your recitals and practice. /
I’m the dragon breathing fire. /
I’m the prism that facets color. /
I’m your hoard of cherished goods. /
I’m the pen in your hand. /
I’m the hands on your phone. /
I’m the window to the world. /
The bridge between cups. /
I could go on. /
I am no gender. /
I am a system. /
Of flux.
