[doggedly]

Oh, do you? Oh, Remus.

[He positively sighs his name, and presses his clasped hands to his chest in a fit of ecstasy--complete with eyelash fluttering and heavy drawn-in breath.]

Oh, I didn't know.

[theshabbiestofmen]

Yes, well. God knows I've played my cards against my chest, or kept my heart hidden, or whatever you'd like to call it. I'd appreciate a bit less breathless gasping, if it's all the same to you.

[doggedly]

Kept your heart against your hidden chest, maybe?

[He sighs, wistfully, and runs his fingers through his hair.]

But I shall try to restrain myself. For you.

[theshabbiestofmen]

Thank you.

[It's a joke, and said accordingly-- but he means it, he realizes, and so adds far more sincerely:]

For everything.

[doggedly]

Yeah, yeah.

[He's done with the eyelash fluttering and sighing and everything, just as abruptly as he started with it, and he waves Remus off dismissively--though he's smiling as he does it, which means that he is not-so-secretly pleased.]

Save it, Lupin, for some time where you actually need to thank me.

[theshabbiestofmen]

Such as? Giving me advice on girls doesn't count.

[doggedly]

You what! Why doesn't that count?

[theshabbiestofmen]

Because it doesn't. Because then you'd lord it over me forever.

[doggedly]

I do that even when you don't thank me, y'know.
