    Summary

    "There's a battle ahead, Many battles are lost, But you'll never see the end of the road while you're travelling with me."
    'Don't Dream It's Over' Crowded House (1986)

    16-year-old Remus Lupin is running out of chances.
    His father's been in prison for the last 8 years, leaving Remus to find his own way through the foster system, and boarding school after boarding school.

    But after yet another expulsion, Remus is left with only one more school willing to take him. It's either Sydney's Neuridge Grammar School.
    Or Juvenile detention.

     

    TW:
    Drug abuse and addiction
    Parental abuse/domestic violence

    Summary

    "You're hiding from me now,
    There's something in the way that you're talking, words don't sound right,
    But I hear them all moving inside you,
    Know, I'll be waiting when you call,"
    'Fall at Your Feet' Crowded House (1991)

    For Remus, two week in the Australian Bush might just fix whatever it is that had changed between him and Sirius. Two weeks, might just be enough to be close again—if he ever could have called him and Sirius "close". The close they could have been.

    For Sirius. Two weeks trapped in the Australian Bush. In a tent. With Remus Lupin. Might just kill him.
    Because he knows how this will end. Either senseless pining—on his own part. Or a rejection he'll never be able to come back from.

    And maybe Sirius would have been able to push through two weeks of avoiding Remus inside the four corners of an inescapable tent.
    But he doesn't know about "Operation Remsius."

    It's top-secret. It's covert. It's the single greatest idea James and Peter had ever formed.

    Because two weeks in the Australian Bush sounds more like a match-making ploy, to James "Prongs" Potter.

    Summary

    A small town isn’t so sacred once you’ve found something to worship you back.

    Remus Lupin understands that he can’t have what he wants. Not in Redwater; a small town where everybody knows everybody and everybody’s business.

    You learn what’s expected of you in Redwater. You learn people will see when the expectations aren’t met. You learn never to ask for more. Remus has always been good at following the rules once he learnt how to play the game.

    But when Sirius Black returns from Sydney as if he’s seen and entered a whole new world, Remus’ world changes dangerously close to something he might want to keep.

    Summary

    What do you need after a breakup? The antithesis of your ex. In Penelope's case this means something fun, warm and interesting (aka the anti-Debling), and people who feel the normal amount of love for penguins.

    So she heads to Australia for Christmas, because fuck Debling, fuck snow, and fuck Christmas with her family too. She's independent, courageous, assertive. She is putting what Penelope wants first for once.

    And while what she wants isn't necessarily to have to be rescued on her first beach day here, she does enjoy being scooped out of the water by the most mouthwateringly hot man she's ever seen in her life.

    Summary

    Sophie Walker doesn't come from a broken home. She's proud of her blended family, of the fact that her mum and dad are still good friends who care deeply for each other, and while she loves her mum, she understands why her beloved stepmum turned out to be the love of Dad's life. Most importantly, from the moment she could form lasting memories, she’s been certain of one thing above all others: her dad is her strength, her most loyal champion, her trusted confidant, her shield - and sometimes, sword - when life is cruel to her. He's her dearest friend as well as the best dad in the world. Throughout her childhood, no matter how hard life outside the sanctuary of home became, nothing could shake her belief in him, and surely nothing will.

    Until her dad makes an unexpected and shocking decision that shatters everyone's lives and leads Sophie to question everything.

    Rating for heavy themes.

    Set primarily in Melbourne, Australia, during the 1970s and 80s and predates the Now chapters of the book. Eventual female OC/female OC in later chapters, though it's not the principal focus of the story.

    Summary

    10 years have passed since Rumi vanished from the public eye, leaving fans and friends alike wondering if she’d ever be seen again.

    Following the death of Celine, Mira and Zoey set off to follow the pull of the honmoon, in theory to find the next generation of hunters. In their hearts, though, they can't help that hope the honmoon will lead them to their missing member. Their latest stop in their Turtley Awesome World Tour brings them to Australia.

    What they find there surprises them, not only a lost friend, thriving in a life built from earth, honey, and determination, but maybe something more like love.

    Can it be that easy, though? Rumi left for a reason, and she’s made a home, a sanctuary, in a world of her own. As Mira, Rumi, and Zoey navigate old hurts and unexpected reunions, they're reminded that healing, love, and family rarely comes without sacrifice. Sometimes, though, the most rewarding paths are the ones you never expected to take.

    A lot has changed over the years.
    Ash Ketchum and his crew have been through a lot over the past few years, and now they set their sights to the supermassive Gran Australis region for only one thing: vacation!

    This is a story about a lot of things. It has a lot of characters, a lot of storylines, and a lot of twists and turns.
    But most importantly, this is the story of how Ash Ketchum and his friends conquered one of the most hostile regions on Earth.
    And the story of how a group of four fateful friends became a family.

    Summary

    Sirius was quiet for a moment. He closed his eyes and tilted his head back as he took in a deep breath, the first rays of the bright morning sun bathing his features in a soft glow of fiery orange light.

    “I don’t like the water,” he confessed in a whisper that Remus almost missed over the crashing of the waves. His eyes opened, soft and vulnerable, and Remus’ heart twisted strangely.

    OR: It's summer in Australia and Remus falls in love.

    Summary

    It’s AFL Grand Final in Mildura and sitting inside the Great Emu Pub is a 23-year-old shy introverted virgin with cripplingly social anxiety who hasn’t had much luck with the ladies or making friends in general due to his abysmal social skills with the first girl that he had a crush on friend-zoning him.

    Things begin to look better for him while watching the AFL grand final a cute teenage girl walks in takes a visible interest and starts flirting with him. But when a bunch of rowdy footy fans storm into the pub with one idiot bringing a strange drug canister that explodes and shrinks them down to ant-sized it sets off a shocking chain of events and fight for survival especially when that cute teenager is outside having a smoke……….

    It is always said that finding love is to die for. Little did this closeted Macrophile realise he’s doing it quite so literally while desperately trying to get her attention while spiralling down a dark path of vengeance against old enemies of his while his deepest fantasies have come into the real world ………

    Fun side note, this takes place in the Universe as Antopia and It’s just a Bug. I have sprinkled Easter egg references relating to my previous stories if you have read them.

    Summary

    Australia was once a country with Carnivores and Herbivores coexisting with the Omnivores. Humans, considered class Omnivores, came out with a strange pathogen.

    During the first week, humans were infected with a virus showing cannibalistic behaviour only to their own species. Biting. Eating the flesh of ones own species. Violent behaviour. It baffled scientists at it's cause, wondering what it is.

    Animals however, were invisible to the infected Omnivores. Humans were ignoring the Herbivores and Carnivores.

    Until, they too got infected. Somehow they did. Whatever caused it, they can see both human and animal as their prey. Even if their prey are carnivores.

    The army lost control within the first month. Airports shut down in areas nearby, while flights didn't dare to go back to Australia. No other country was willing to take Refugees. But one showed compassion and opened it's doors.

    One female scientist in the military made it a goal to find a solution before things get bad.
