His cheeks reddened as he shut his mouth, but his stomach knew what time it was and what time breakfast should be and rumbled, loudly, demandingly.
"I, er, could use some breakfast, now that you mention it," Remus announced, to save the last shred of dignity, which clung on like a crab that has caught a dog by its whiskers. It has no reason to stay clinging, but it does out of some perverse instinctual ideals. "And mouthwash. Incidentally, have you heard of mints? Eugh." He shuddered the delicate shudder that had almost gone extinct in the last ten years, but was back in force now that it had a steady home to compare to. "Come, I'll make you eat an apple."
