_______<br/><br/>When Remus made it back to the dormitory halls, it was well into the small hours of the morning. Despite being a weekend night, the campus was quiet and barren, any ordinary bar likely to have closed several hours ago. While Remus himself had been by the club, he had barely been there long enough to realize Black had been there, too; Remus had only just offered him his well wishes for the night before leaving with someone else.<br/>In a stark contrast to the calm of the night, Remus felt fuzzy, overstimulated both physically and mentally.<br/>It had been a brief walk back to campus; so short, in fact, that it had done very little to steady him, still feeling the pulse of adrenaline dully in his veins.<br/>Assuming Black home and in bed, Remus had thought it kindest to unwind elsewhere, and despite the school’s prohibitions, Remus allowed himself a solitary smoke sitting on the doorstep of the dormitory entrance.
