Description: The Marauders vs. The Hangovers (I found this idea no Tumblr)
Story:

James, Sirius, and Peter wake up on a Saturday morning with terrible hangovers. They groan and cover their faces to block out the light, snapping at each other to be quiet. 

They soon notice that Remus is sitting on his bed wide awake, a whole spread of homework in front of him, working away.

"What the bloody fuck?" Sirius mumbles, astounded. "You do you not have a hangover?"

In truth, Remus's head is hurting just as bad as everyone else's. The only difference is that he's used to working through a headache much worse before and after full moons, so it doesn't affect him as bad. 

Outwardly, Remus shrugs. "Just one of the perks of being a werewolf, I suppose," he said in answer to Sirius. "Guess I don't get hangovers."

"Bloody unfair," Sirius mumbled, hiding back under his covers. 

Remus sighed to himself, rubbing his temples to ease the discomfort as he worked on writing his Potions essay. 

The other three boys wallowed in their self pity much of that day, laying in bed while Remus got all of his homework done. They boys complained and complained, exclaiming how they wished they didn't have hangovers like Moony. 

Remus was actually trying to focus on reading a book when the words were swimming together from the pounding in his head, but he wouldn't cave. He wouldn't confess to his friends that he actually did have a killer headache. 

No, they quietly figured it out on their own when Peter mentioned quietly to the other two that their complaining and whining was disrupting Moony, that he'd wince ever time they spoke, how he would sit with his head in his hands for minutes at a time when he thought they weren't looking. 

And that's when the boys realized that they were being insensitive complaining, as Remus was feeling the same way. They were quite impressed with his ability to power through his work, but also a little saddened. It was just another reminder of how much their pain scale differed from Remus's.

Sorry this is a short one, but I saw this headcanon and had to write about it.
