The 411 on Remus Lupin

[themostepotente]

I'll be the first to admit -- I don't write Remus Lupin well.

I know that I 'prefer' him submissive. I have a harder time wrapping my brain around alpha Remus, especially paired with Snape or Sirius.

I think people associate his lycanthropy with 'aggressive' tendency and sometimes forget that not all wolves are alphas of their packs.

So for those of you that write Remus Lupin on a consistent basis, do you prefer him aggressive or docile? Or perhaps a little of both?

I absolutely adore how you write Remus. He's so there, so real, so tangible in your stories!

Thanks! I have a very strong Remus muse living in my head who tends to be quite vocal, so I have a rather in-depth personal characterization of the character that pervades anything I write about him. *g*
