I’m not good with tropes. I can’t remember people using that term before my hiatus. I’ve thought of making one of those trope memes but found it hard. Let’s see now…
1. Remus is poor!
This goes with my weird cold and hunger kink, and I like my Remus properly poor, without so much as a cottage.
Leaning my head against the wall, I stare up, from where I’m sitting on my mattress, at the deadly night in ambush behind the frozen glass. I can ignore it when focused on remembering… just what Merlin College requires in the exam combining Wizarding History and Defence Against Dark Creatures.
(I Don’t Dream)
2. Remus is proud and finds it hard to accept help even from his friends.
“Listen.” Sirius sounds impatient. “Let’s grab some take-away lunch and go to your flat! I’m not sure if James has so much time, but...”
“Mine?” I adjust the strap on my shoulder, now fumbling for words. “I… I’ve moved out of that room.”
“Great, let’s see your new place then!” James doesn’t miss a beat, but perhaps he’s just missed the point, and more than once.
“I’m kind of… between flats.”
(The Angel of Charity or This Awfully Long Month)
3. Remus is comforted by Sirius around full moon.
Or is it more of a trope if I say Friends to Lovers? And Angst and Hurt/Comfort.
“Now I’m glad about yesterday’s boring first-aid lessons. I can make that arm better,” he mutters, opening my fly, “but I know this is the most urgent first aid for someone like you. I mean someone with a condition like yours: sex addiction.”
(There Is Some Hope)

4. Sirius is comforted by Remus after what was done to him by his parents, and after Azkaban.
I’ve even found a way to have Remus there to be the first to meet Sirius when he’s coming to James’s family. And the latter scenario must be a pairing-specific trope Lying Low at Lupin’s (in my case without the usual cottage). Also Angst and Hurt/Comfort just as almost everything in this list.
5. Another pairing-specific trope, the Lost Years.
While Sirius is in Azkaban, my cottageless Remus travels in Europe, Africa and Lebanon, meeting people who comfort him when he’s hurting, and learns about teaching and helping each other.
