    Summary

    “If your son remains unbonded and unmarked, I will have no choice but to challenge his candidacy.”

    His mother pauses. “With whom?”

    Kiyoomi doesn’t see him at first. He’s so busy trying not to glare down Miya-san that he doesn’t notice the way every head in the room suddenly turns toward the open door.

    “My great nephew,” Miya-san says.

    Kiyoomi’s eyes only flicker up then.

    And when it does—when he finally sees who’s standing there, leaning casually against the doorframe, his fake blond hair brushed to the side and that infuriating, crooked smile on his face—it hits him like a punch to the fucking gut.

    * * *

    Sakusa Kiyoomi, heir incumbent of the multibillion yen Itachiyama Group, has been raised and trained to take over his family’s legacy. He could never have expected that not having a soulmate would jeopardize that future. He could never have expected that the challenger for his crown would be the one person he hates more than anyone else.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    You know children conceived under the effects of love potions can't feel love? And the act of coupling with someone while they're under a love potion is classified as assault?"

    Oof why do I feel like Reggie is going to think he's one of those. And brewing of amortentia is always going to happen if only to get characters to admit their feelings to each other.

    Maybe drowning, his parents had never taught him how to swim, it would make sense.

    I have always and will always love jokes about Reggie drowning to death.

    Was she really that upset at him over Xenophilius? Upset enough to kiss the brother who'd abandoned him? The brother that he'd sobbed over in Pandora's arms time and time again?

    I know this is supposed to be angsty but like I think I just like watching Reggie suffer. No I'm not going to talk about that to my therapist

    “Don’t you think it's strange the only people staying this year are people we know?” Pandora mused.

    Barty shrugged, “Maybe the author of our story relies to much on coincidence and convenience,”

    “Hey!” Evan protested, “Don’t slander our author! They could write you out of the story,”

    I was definitely expecting a mysterious rock to hit barty on the head (despite them being indoors) to remind them of the omnipotence of our dear author

    Summary

    “They’re… chaos,” Remus said firmly. “And chaos is—”
    “Rock and roll.”
    He looked at Sirius sharply, and for once, matched his grin. “Yeah.”
    “Maybe that’s my excuse then,” Sirius said. “I cause a bit of chaos now, and maybe one day, it’ll turn into rock and roll.”

    After losing his mother at age eleven, Remus has spent the better part of the last four years bouncing from school to school or else running around London and pretending as though he wasn't the kind of well-bred boy his father brought him up to be. Now, with his chances all run out, Remus is sent to Hawkings Independent School as a last-ditch effort to clean up his act. There he meets the very people who will set up the rest of his life, and is forced to confront the pieces of himself he'd long thought had been lost.

    (genuinely not apologising for the slow-burn in this fic anymore. You've been warned <3)

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Familial bonds were clearly a mere illusion meant to hide the true importance of choosing loved ones for one’s self. Journeys were comfortable because no matter how long they lasted you always knew they would come to an end, and that that end would be just.
    My boy created a found family and he couldn't even have that?

    Remus watched, suddenly struck by how alike the back of Sirius’ head was to Tonya’s. They could’ve passed as siblings. Both of them shared the same black waves and pouty lips—they were pretty and they knew it.
    You have a type Remus Lupin

    every time he looked in a mirror he was met by a reflection only a mother could love. And he didn’t have one of those.
    I'm not in the mental capacity to laugh right now but one day I will be

    Nothing! Just that Marlene really clung to you on Halloween, so I thought that maybe…”
    HAHA gay lesbian solidarity I guess

    “I kissed Marlene.”

    Sirius blinked at him before looking around with a shocked sense of bewilderment. Remus could almost see the gears turning in his head, while just a little further down the road a crowd of teachers and kids stood shuffling around in front of a long row of buses.

    “What the fuck,” Sirius said finally; “Marlene? Why her?”

    Ahh Sirius’s turn for jealousy induced depression
    You deserve it though

    Being at school felt like the traditional, fast-moving tempo of the piece, and those few precious moments in the flat were his rubato. There he couldn’t play or make music, he could only listen and live. Conversations were without any real goal, the days blurred into one another, and the nights felt endless but not hopeless. There was very little action or adventure and that was how he liked it. The flat was rubato, one he’d never find anywhere else. There would be others, yes, but none the same. If he’d known then maybe he would’ve taken more pictures and less drugs so he could better commit them to memory.

    But that’s the thing about memories—in the moment they’re not memories at all. They’re not even time.
    Fuck the flats done for isn’t it

    “You’re... glorious.”

    “Ha,” Tonya laughed lightly, “I love you, too.”

    He had a bad feeling—like an instinct—but he was already drawing the phone away from his ear. Remus set the receiver down, cutting the connection and leaving his fingers warm and tingly.
    Fuck fuck fuck fuck not my favourites (sorry Sirius)

    Well, the voice in his head said, good luck with that one, mate.
    Yeah mate, considering the author said you’d be sleeping on the couch when you’re in a band, I’d say my favourite trope (requited unrequited love) will last a long time

    Y’know I want to hate the author for kicking lu out of the flat but honestly I’ve been expecting this but it doesn’t mean it hurts any less (and I asked for this)

    Okay I want to be upset with marls but I honestly think half the problem is that Remus never learned what proper parents are like. Also stanning marls for having a backbone thank god for telling Remus to not insult her in her own house.

    I really hope this felt worth the wait. Only took >350 thousand words—LOL
    The pinning is far from over (I mean, obviously. Have you met Remus Lupin???) this is truly just the beginning.
    I’m so tired but I keep remembering I chose all this pining and that I adore oblivious dudes trying to pretend they’re not head over heels for each other

    Do you want to get out of here?” He asked. “Just go somewhere—anywhere?”
    Oh this author has definitely read running on air at some point

    I'm so exhausted by all my crying and yet I continue. One might argue that I'm a masochist

    “I have to go,” Tomny said. “Don’t feel sorry, jus’… take care of yerself, Lu.”
    And
    “C’mon, Lu, this way!”

    “… I’m coming! Wait for me, Tom!”

    “Well, alright then. It’s a pleasure to meet you, Regulus Black." Feeling a bit stupid, he held out his hand. "I’m Remus."
    He'd really only expected Regulus to scoff and turn away, but Remus should've known better.
    Never underestimate a Black.
    He watched as Regulus came forward, tucking his sheet music under one arm and taking a deep breath. Then he reached out and took Remus' hand, and giving it the barest squeeze.
    “Pleasure to meet you too, Remus Lupin.”
    Happily, Remus squeezed back.

    " 'Cause it's him, isn't it?”

    It felt pathetic, even naive, but there was no helping it.

    “It’ll always be him, I think.”

    up?"

    “Better be. I haven't been able to write anything for weeks, my playing sucks too. Even prongs noticed. And I... Well, I sort of missed having a poet for a boyfriend.”

    “I’m far from a poet.”

    “Part-time then.”
    FINALLY THE NAME CAME THROUGH

    Summary

    A mischievous grin tugs at James' lips. “I love me a good croissant.”

    “You’ve never had a good croissant.”

    “No, I have. The uni bakery has this–”

    Regulus interjects, "If the next words out of your mouth are 'ham croissant,' I will throw myself on top of a knife.”

    Ahhhhh I utterly adore this fic it's so frickin adorable and jegulus have impeccable communication which I love and they're just so in love and wholesome and regulus' mind falling apart from the thought of James kneading dough is the fluff I didn't even know I craved and their determination to finish the croissants they're making is just hilarious
