ugly like me

And inside you're ugly

You're ugly like me

Remus Lupin. Everyone's favorite animal.

That's right, Lupin, I know your dirty little secret. I know you're a werewolf. I know what that pretty face and those golden eyes hide. You act like no one could ever find out; like the only people who will ever know about you is your little group of friends.

Hardly.

I've found out. I'm not that observant, and all it took was a pair of eyes and a little snooping. It won't take much more for anyone else to find out.

I have something on you, Lupin. I swear, if you even breathe at me wrong, I'll let the world know about you. No, that's not right. If any of your little friends dares cross me, I'll ruin you, and them.

And I'll damn well enjoy it, too. I'll enjoy watching your reputation crumble around you. The little quiet boy in the back of the classroom, a vicious monster. Wonder if anyone will have anything to do with you then. It's such a sweet concept that I'm almost tempted to go out and do it now.

No . . . no. I couldn't. I couldn't do something like that without provocation.

Anything, Lupin. The next time Black glares at me, or Potter shoots me that little 'see what I've got and you don't' look, or Pettigrew sneers at me, or you smile at me and it says, 'you could have had me', you'll be dead. Not physically, but you'll damn well wish you were. People will skirt you in the halls and send strange glances your way. Others will howl mockingly and some will scratch behind their ears.

They'll treat you like they treat me. You'll know how it feels to be the outcast.

Oh, sure, maybe your friends will stick with you for a while. But little Pettigrew will drift away first--he never had much of a backbone--then Potter--his reputation means more to him than his friends--finally . . . finally Black will--because he can't love an outcast.

Then you'll know.

You'll be pushed out, just like me. Maybe you'll try to end it. Maybe you'll come running to me. Do you know what I'll do then, Lupin?

I'll do what you've always done. I'll turn my back and walk away.

Enjoy it while you can, Lupin.

I'm watching.

I can see through you

See to the real you
