Summary
Arcade Gannon is, at his core, a very good, yet distrusting man.
Benny is, at his core, a very selfish, yet determined man.
The Mojave is on the precipice of change, and while neither of them can do much on their own, they find that putting their heads together might be enough to make a decent plan of action despite their differences.

Summary
Someone tries to kill Enjolras. Grantaire dies to save him.
The guilt Enjolras feels is unlike anything he had ever felt before. He had never been very close to Grantaire, or at least not the same type of close he was with the other Amis. And yet, the resident cynic's loss is more unbearable than Enjolras would have ever imagined. He was supposed to protect his people. He was supposed to protect his friends.
But then one day he wakes up, and Grantaire is alive. Which was supposed to be a great, marvellous thing, really, only if it wasn't for the countdown clock glued to Enjolras' nightstand.
Or, the one where Grantaire dies, and Enjolras is granted 30 more days by his side before he loses him forever.- Language:

Summary
“What am I supposed to do?”
Grantaire bites his lip. “I mean… nothing? Like, we do nothing. We just nurture these elementary-school type crushes until the day we die and maybe we leave a love letter in our death and that's it, probably. We just don't do anything. There's nothing to do about it.”
Eponine seems unfulfilled by the way her eyes narrow at the ceiling. “I do not accept that.”
// (Cosette and Enjolras are siblings, Eponine and Grantaire are each others wingmen, Marius is slowly realizing he's the only straight person in the room, nobody is cool, calm, or collected, and you should always steal pick-up lines from porn.)

Summary
The stars were burning in the night sky. The hallways were dark, only lit by the pale emergency lighting above the doorframes. They tinted the hard wood floor and walls green, leaving the rest of the corridor in black shadows. The staircase beyond the glass door across the hallway, on the contrary, was floodlit and drenched in yellow. The harsh light there hurt the eyes of the late passers-by, the single young man who made his way upstairs was squinting against the lamps suspended from the ceiling. He yawned and padded further upstairs, passing one hallway after another, setting one foot in front of the other.
Grantaire makes a late night discovery that tips his world upside down as he enters unknown territory.

Summary
Some time after The First Day of the Rest of Their Lives, a new Angel is created in Heaven. She has only one purpose: to find and destroy the demon Crowley. Follow Samael as she struggles to uncover the truth. Why has the Serpent from the Garden started hunting Angels? Who was Aziraphale and why, in all her lessons, was that name never mentioned? What other secrets are the Angels from Heaven keeping from her and how will she ever uncover them all?

Summary
Enjolras presses his lips together. He already looks pained, and Grantaire hasn't even opened his mouth yet. That's got to be a record, even for them.
"I need a favor," he says at last.
"With what?" says Grantaire. "Ooh, are you forming a cult? Can I join? I'd be awesome at cults, I just know it." He ticks off his qualifications on his fingers. "I love chanting, I look great in robes—"
(High school AU. Grantaire the disaffected stoner is pulled into a cause bigger than himself. Or: in which there are pretend boyfriends for great justice.)

Summary
LONG fic charting the marauders' time at Hogwarts (and beyond) from Remus' PoV - diversion from canon in that Remus's father died and he was raised in a children's home, and is a bit rough around the edges. Otherwise canon-compliant.
1971 - 1995This IS a wolfstar fic, but incredibly slow burn. Literally years. Long build up but worth it I promise!
PLEASE DO NOT COPY TO WATTPAD. SERIOUSLY, WHY??
