Harry Potter in his 3rd year finding the initials “JP” carved into his bedpost. Harry Potter wondering whose initials they could be but not investigating because he’s too tired. Harry Potter going about his day every day and not thinking about the carved initials again until Lupin offhandedly mentions, while packing up his stuff, he remembers one year, James brought up a knife from the kitchens and had all the Marauders carve their initials into their bedposts. Harry Potter just smiling and not letting on he was sleeping in one of those beds. Harry Potter later that night tracing his fingers into the carved wood before going to sleep and feeling slightly warmer than usual because here was a physical reminder that his dad had lived and breathed, that he wasn’t just a faint memory when Harry closed his eyes and thought really hard.

Harry Potter sleeping more soundly in his dorm that night than he ever had before.
