    Summary

    “I wish I’d never met you," Caitlyn says, cold and detached.

    And Vi thinks, yeah. That sounds about right.

    Summary

    “Something bad is about to happen," Regulus says.

    Sirius’ face doesn’t change. Sirius knows what the house is capable of, and therefore, he already knows something bad will happen. This is the house that made them. It loves them, and it needs them. It hates them, and it wants to devour them. It’s salivating, just waiting for nightfall. It once left burn marks on Sirius’ back, so Sirius wants to expose it, and then burn it to the ground. It once drowned Regulus, and he doesn’t want to crawl out of the water again. He wants it all to end. He knows they have to do this. This house created them, and it ate them up, and it spit them out all scarred up. Just like their mother.

    Sirius is the only person in the world who understands, and that’s precisely why Regulus delivers him these next words.

    “If that something happens to James, then I will not forgive you.”

    Summary

    They’re so close. Sirius can feel Remus’ hot, bated breath on his skin. He can see every one of Remus’ honey freckles and the white spiderwebs that course through his scar tissue. He can hear every one of Remus’ sharp inhales and shaky exhales; It’s the only sound he can hear above his own heart racing through his veins.

    And his heart is doing that —racing. But it’s not like a thud, thud, thud in his chest or even a soft, fluttering sound like a warm, Irish lilt. The sound is more like a swoosh, like a pendulum swing, jumping from white-hot anticipation to cold-blooded fear and back again.

    -or-

    Remus is a storm blowing through Sirius’ small town and Sirius is laid out on the waterlogged cobblestone streets waiting to be washed away.

    Summary

    Dani Clayton is six years old when the O’Mara family moves in across the street. The world, for the most part, makes perfect sense in ways that will unravel in two short years. She understands the suburban block on which she’s lived her entire life, the breadth of her father’s hands, the shine of her mother’s eyes. She understands everything.

    She is six, and the world makes perfect sense, and the world will make sense forever.

     

    (Or: AU in which Jamie is taken in by the O'Mara family, and Dani grows up wedged between two best friends with dark hair, learning slowly how to fall in love.)
