The rest of the Cornwall camping week passes in complete bliss for Remus and Sirius with beach days, village exploring, and passionate nights together. James becomes protective of Remus after his coming out, giving everyone speeches about treating him no differently. When Peter makes an insensitive comment about Remus being good at "blokey stuff," James immediately takes him aside for a stern talking-to. The group reluctantly says goodbye at the end of the trip and returns to the Potter's house.
