    Summary

    Baz Pitch has spent his entire life repressing who he is and what he wants, but everyone has a breaking point. He hires an escort for a single night. One night of touches, and kisses, and pushing everything else to the back of his mind. One night to just give in. At least, that was the plan.

    The problem is ... he never could have anticipated Simon Snow.

    And Simon definitely didn't anticipate him.

    Summary

    Laurent is a ragdoll, pulled down into the dark at improbable speed. The lift it makes in his stomach is odd, like the giddy drop on a rollercoaster. A moment of elation, perhaps, before he dies.

    He breaks the surface.

    His gasping mouth now pulls in air, his feet firmly on the rock bottom of the spring and legs holding him up unshakably. Water streams from his head, down his body, as though a bucket had been dumped over his head. He reaches up to push his sopping hair from his eyes.

    “Naiad,” a voice says.

    Laurent stills. Psychological collapse should be allowed, by the universe, to be a solitary affair, especially when it happens in a state of complete undress. It’s unfair on a cosmic level that Laurent should be happened upon by a stranger in his current condition.

    ---

    On holiday with his brother in Ios, Laurent bathes in a hot spring. Unfortunately, he drowns. Even more unfortunately, when he surfaces somehow, he finds himself thrust back in time. Dropped into the middle of a mythologised ancient war for the Akielon throne, he is determined to get back to the modern day - even after ending up kidnapped (or perhaps rescued) by the rightful King, Damianos.

    Summary

    In 1965, Voldemort became Minister for Magic. In 1968, the leadership of the Order of the Phoenix was destroyed, the remnants of the terrorist organisation driven underground. By 1970, all was well in Great Britain.

    The year is 1984. Sirius Black has just turned 25. He's rich, he's powerful, and most importantly--he's bored.

    But all of that is about to change.

    Summary

    It has been since first year: this delirious want suffused in Remus’s veins. James introduced himself on their first day at university and Remus’s heart hasn’t sat right in his chest since. It’s been bunched over, scrunched in a corner to make room for James and his booming laugh and bright smile, the way his calloused fingers grip Remus’s elbow as he passes him in the hallway of their shared flat and scoops out his pulse.

     

    two boys and a day.

    Summary

    “I’m going back to bed,” he says loftily. “I was right; you’re absolutely mad.”

    Laurent.

    “I do not recall inviting you to use my given name.”

    “Do not be ridiculous—Marquis, you cannot go in there. Please.” Damen cannot touch him, not even to stop him. He can, however, use his body as a blockade. He strides ahead before turning and spreading his arms. The Marquis draws up short.

    “You are the one who is being ridiculous,” he informs Damen evenly, as though it is a fact.

    “There is—A Man is in the entrance hall.” The Marquis rolls his eyes, but on looking down, the frown descends on his brow once more.

    “What have you done?” There is something strange in his voice. “Why are you bleeding?” Damen looks down as well. Indeed, there are ribbons torn into his right leg, flowing lines of red cut along the flesh by the fingers of the ghost. He had not noticed, but the bottom of his shirt is shredded.

    He will have to send to Ios for a trunk of clothes. Laundering will not mend this.

    “As I have said to you, there was a Man—as there was a Boy, the night before last. He came out of the arched doorway, and clawed at me.”

    Summary

    They had a year in Berlin, and then Orion ordered Sirius back to England to help set up a new department under the firm's South American division. Sirius had been thrilled when Remus turned up in London three weeks later, shrugging and telling him that he'd tired of Berlin, and something in the grey capital had sparked back to life when Sirius returned from reunion drinks at the pub with James and Peter to find Remus - key acquired from Sirius's secretary, he later uncovered - naked on the bed in Sirius's room, head cushioned on folded arms on the silk sheets, knees tucked under and waiting.

    Sirius and Remus have an arrangement, of sorts. But they’re definitely not together.

    Summary

    There's something blazingly incongruous about Remus in the wintertime. He's golden: sunshine and honeybees, caramel curls and freckles like dappled sunlight. Even his clothes seem borrowed, and temporary, as if he might've just thrown on an extra layer for a moment in the knowledge that his own innate aestival nature would be quite enough to stave off the worst of the chill. Something at home in long balmy nights, and mornings when the gardens teem with life and song. Wonderfully out of place in the winter: a happy visitor to the season, an ember in the frost.

    Christmastime in the Cotswolds: cold hands, crackling fires, and Remus's indefatigable quest for parsnips.

    Summary

    A Modern AU Marauders texting with prose fic set at University.

    Mainly Wolfstar - Will they? Won’t they? (They obviously will...)
    And a little bit of Jily too.

    This is my first multi-chaptered fic, so any feedback, good or bad or any tags you think need to added then please do let me know!

    Rated E for explicit sexual content, but these chapters are all marked in the notes and easy to skip without interrupting the plot 😊

    EDIT: As of 28/07/21 I’m going through and adding bits/taking bits out so it flows better with the other parts in the series - let me know if you spot any plot holes that need sorting!

    Summary

    A shiver trembles through Sirius, racing up his spine, and he blames the crisp air. Remus leans closer, and his lips are parting-- and Sirius shrieks as a chunk of wet, numbing snow is rubbed into his cheek. He squirms beneath him, twisting his head away, but Remus only presses him harder into the glacial ground.

    When Remus sits back, Sirius glowers darkly, using his freed arm to wipe his face with his sleeve. He can't quite remember how to breathe, and Remus is still over him, their legs tangled and bent at odd angles.

    "You were a lot nicer to me when you were sick." Sirius says.

    "I was weak." Remus smiles, and the warmth from his body fades as he gets to his feet. "Don't get used to it."

     

    Of pub quizzes, old films, Chinese takeaways, broken arms, and impassioned discussions of literature: Remus is confusing, and Sirius is just trying to figure him out.
