If Harry were to stop and think about it, Remus is sure he would realise James was not Lily's first and only boyfriend. If that day comes, he's prepared to answer the boy's questions.
It was only a teenage flirtation, really, nothing very serious. And when, aged seventeen, Remus realised James was in love, and Lily was too, he stepped aside readily and let them find each other.

"Fine, de Carabas. What do you want this time? Just name it."

"Remember, my lady, grant my request and your debt is cleared."
"Out with it. What. Do. You. Want?"
"One night with your Upworlder hero."
