the best bit of a Sherlock Holmes story is not, in fact, the case, but the bit at the beginning where we just get a little glimpse of day to day life in Baker Street, and something funny usually happens
so I have a headcanon that Remus Lupin is actually a really good singer. he didn't like to do it in front of people, just for himself, but sometimes if Sirius begged enough he'd give in. he'd sing with Lily too, ABBA, but insisted she kept it a secret because the others would tease him till the day he died. and he'd sing to baby Harry, lullabys that always worked so whenever the baby was crying he'd be given to Uncle Moony for a song.
then... then he stopped singing for a while. for twelve years, to be precise.
but finally, finally Tonks persuaded him to sing for her. just a little. and he'd sing to her and sing to Teddy and almost be as happy as he was with his old friends.
never forget that one time Sherlock Holmes (while Watson was trying to go to bed) took all the cushions and pillows from the room, put them on the floor, sat on them in his dressing gown, and stayed up all night smoking his pipe. the next morning he woke poor Watson up at 4am, called himself one of the biggest fools in Europe and said he deserved to be 'kicked from here to Charing Cross', then said that he'd solved the mystery and the answer was in the bathroom. he had solved the mystery.

It will never stop being funny to me that after days and days of hard travel and fighting, most of the Fellowship are covered in mud and blood and dirt and their hair is an absolute mess.
And then there's Legolas. Who somehow is looking as perfect as he always has. And he has the nerve to tell Aragorn he looks terrible after the man fought a load of wargs, fell of a cliff, nearly drowned and then rode for a few days? I think he has every right to look terrible Legolas with your fancy hair.
