Summary
Remus John Lupin; most people would’ve described the recently turned five year old as reserved and kind. His mother, Hope Lupin, knew him to be a smart trouble seeking menace, and his father, Lyall Lupin, recognising his younger self in his son, knew that his son would become a great wizard, just like himself.
As much trouble as he caused his parents at times, they loved him with the entirety of their hearts and would rather suffer the unbearable pain that comes with being cursed by an unforgivable, than have their boy in any kind of suffering.
The sad reality is that not even a week after little Remus turned 5, his entire life changed, and not for the better. As much as his parents would’ve wanted to take his place and suffer in his stead, they couldn’t. As much as Lyall wanted to rewind time and retract his vile words, the words that angered the one responsible for his son’s agony. He couldn’t.
Somehow one of the things that broke their hearts the most was how their son, who was once fascinated by the moon, who enjoyed observing the moon right before he went to bed, would never look up at the night sky again, as he grew abnormally scared of the moon, no matter what phase it was in.- Language:

Summary
In the spring of 1944, the 104th Medical Battalion of the United States Army is disbanded, and its men reassigned to various infantry companies in preparation for their invasion of occupied France. For First Lieutenant Novak, this is less than helpful, as he has so far met his platoon’s designated medic a grand total of twice, and has both times found Sergeant Winchester to be the optimum combination of reckless, arrogant, and downright insufferable so as to make cohesive platoon function near impossible. When the time comes to move out, however, Castiel has to reconcile himself to the fact that men are going to go down and trust that Dean Winchester may well be the only person who can put them back together again. WW2 ETO infantry AU.
