See, at first, Sirius was intrigued by this description. While it may not have been healthy that he was excited this Roman fellow sound like Re--
Oh.
Wow.
There was a momentary flare of protective anger in which he nearly demanded John explain what the hell he was trying to imply, but he stopped himself.
This Roman probably just looked a lot like Remus, and John had got them confused. After all, he'd never seen Remus bring anyone home, and it sounded like these were likely to be paying customers. Which was not the sort of thing Remus would ever go for. Right?
"Sorry. Look, I think you might be confused. The one who works at the desk is named Remus Lupin, not Roman."
And no, those two names were not similar whatsoever. Not at all.
But as much as he didn't want to believe Remus could really be...well, when you spent that much time around someone, ever someone as secretive as Remus could be, you got hints. Just little things he wouldn't ever have thought twice about except for how much sense they made if what he thought John was saying was actually true.
