Summary
Remus shook his head slowly. “Peter was there. And I saw the body.”
James' stomach dropped. The body. As if Sirius were no more than a discarded shell.
“Well, I didn’t,” James said flatly, crossing his arms. “If I had, I’d have known it wasn’t him.”
“You were a teenager, James,” Remus said gently. “You panicked. You couldn’t have known what would happen that night. When are you going to forgive yourself?”
***
In 1978, just three weeks before graduation, Sirius Black died a hero, protecting Peter Pettigrew from a Death Eater ambush. Five years later, James Potter is the only one who believes he survived.
Until Sirius comes back.
A post-Hogwarts Marauder Era AU about missing memories, love that defies death and the dangerous secrets of the Great and Noble House of Black.

Summary
Harry has everything he wants, everything he needs, without his chaos angel. He hasn’t missed this. And yet, he’d last seen Louis damaged and emaciated in a hospital bed. He can’t say he doesn’t prefer him like this, alive and well, kicking and screaming, visceral and strong. No longer skin and bone, he’s flesh and blood.
---
Harry Styles and Louis Tomlinson meet again, in uncertain terms.
A Duology.

Summary
“Scared?” Louis asks, punctuated by a deep drag of his cigarette. With his other hand, he brings his thumb and index finger to his chest and undoes another button. The bare skin is somehow still amber and aglow, decorated with small hairs. Harry wants to catch them in his teeth and pull.
He drinks. “I’ve always been scared of unpredictable people. But I get over it.”
Louis leans back and smirks. “Now you’re scared of yourself. You’re afraid you’ll fall in love with me.”
“That wouldn’t be hard.”
In fact, it would be nearly effortless. It’s everything else that’s been taking him a lot of effort these days.
Louis lowers his head just to look up at Harry through lightning-rod eyelashes. “Careful.”
--
1946. WWII has just ended, but there's still work to be done.
To help bring Nazis to justice, U.S. government agent Harry Styles receives a new assignment: recruit Louis Tomlinson, the American son of a convicted German war criminal, as a spy. Neither knows the full extent of the task they're asked to complete nor the full impact they will have upon each other.
The stakes are quite high.

Summary
“Promise me something, Siri.”
“Anything,” Sirius said quickly. There was nothing he would be unwilling to do for Euphemia Potter. He owed the Potters everything.
“Don’t let James run off and marry her without telling him how you feel.”
Sirius froze, shock rendering him momentarily speechless. Effie just stared at him, eyes brimming with soft understanding.
“I - I don’t know what you’re talking about,” Sirius stammered.
She raised an eyebrow. “I think you do.”
***
After Hogwarts, everything is perfect for James Potter and Sirius Black – best friends, roommates, and now partners in the Ministry’s Auror training program. But with the spectre of war looming, Sirius seems determined to put himself in danger and James finds himself wrestling with increasingly intense feelings for his best friend.
Or, James and Sirius realise they are far more than platonic soulmates.
A slow-burn, post-Hogwarts, Marauder Era story filled with angst, fluff, unhinged pining, unprofessional workplace behaviour, and shameless meddling from Effie and Monty Potter.

Summary
From the outside, it may look like James Potter has everything one needs to be happy. An abundance of talent, a prestigious job, a beautiful wife, an adorable child. So why can’t he let go of the past? Why does he still see silver eyes and a crooked smile when he dreams at night?
It's been six years. Six years since Sirius Black left England. He practically ran away from the country and hasn’t stopped running since. When he has to return to parts of his old life, he tries his best not to dwell on the past.
What luck then, that the past is one of the first people he runs into.
-
“What, so the French sent a cursed Curse-breaker?”There is humour in James’ voice, signalling that this isn’t meant to insult, merely falling into the way they always used to talk to each other. It’s almost too easy reciprocate, to answer with banter that still feels too familiar and pulls at Sirius to be released. He bites his tongue.
“I can assure you, cursed or not, I am still excellent at my job, Auror Potter,” he says pointedly.

Summary
When Regulus is eleven, he meets Harry Potter, the only recently turned up, distant cousin of James Potter. The first surprise is that, despite being a Potter, he's sorted into Slytherin. The second surprise is that he manages to convince Regulus to prank Sirius for being an ass about his sorting. The third is that he turns out to be an amazing friend.
The surprises don't end there—quite the opposite, really. The biggest might just be that Harry refuses to give up on him, and how it changes everything. His worldview, the relationship to his brother; his whole future.
Scratch that, it's the Master of Death-thing. It's definitely the Master of Death-thing.In the end, though, Regulus finds he's rather fond of surprises.

Summary
Of all the things that could happen after being kid-napped by his brother, Sirius didn't think he'd ever be standing with a locket in his hand that supposedly contained a piece of Voldemort's soul and James telling him he was in love with him, but apparently, that's how life was going to go.

Summary
James knows he should be happy - or at least as happy as someone who's 19 and involved in a war can be. He has the girl of his year-long dreams, a flat with the best friend he could ever hope for, and he's fighting for what is right. Despite all that, something is missing. Unfortunately, finally figuring it out only leads to a bigger mess. Fortunately, sometimes even a mess can lead to good things in the end.
Sirius has never really set the bar at happiness per se, but he always thought that getting to leave his family behind, living with James, and watching his friends be happy would be more than enough. As it turns out, family is never as far away as one wants it to be, friendships can be fickle things, and happiness is a very subjective emotion. But if Sirius was ever good at anything, it was at fighting for what he loves.
Or - as if leaving school, figuring out their lives, and fighting in a war wasn't already enough, things really start getting complicated when both Sirius and James have some unexpected epiphanies, the Order realizes they have a traitor in their midst, and Regulus Black turns up on Sirius' and James' doorstep, soaking wet and asking for help.
