Taking a long drag off of his cigarette, Dean gazed at the headstone before him, feeling the scar that ran over his chest pull. Running a hand over his head, feeling it prickle at his hand, before sighing lowly again, smoke blowing out of his mouth.
“Ah, Remus, my friend and hero, what a world we now live in,” Dean draowled, flicking the ash off of his cigarette. “If you had only lived to see how life has changed in so many ways.”
Since the end of the war, Harry, Ron and Hermione had all worked to change the old laws, fixing what had been broken. They had also fixed the classes at Hogwarts, making it easier for the Muggleborns to integrated into Wizarding society. Magics long outlawed were once more welcomed, filling the world around them with a throb that they all felt. So called dark creatures once more walked free and amongst people, the old prejudices dying fast.
“Your books make some good money and your story is being written,” Dean continued, smiling sadly. “Teddy is getting everything that the sales make, which is good for him in the long run.” Finishing off his cigarette, he dropped it down and snuffed it out before standing up, mind filled with past moons as he gazed upwards.
“So many if onlys,” he said as he left the grave stone of Remus.
