Summary
When two-time Oscar winner and walking PR catastrophe Sirius Black drunkenly torpedoes his career at an award show, his manager sends him to The Graham Norton Show for damage control.
(Un)fortunately, sharing the sofa that night is bestselling reclusive novelist RJ Lupin: cardigan-clad, and far too attractive for Sirius’s peace of mind.
Somewhere between hundreds of viral memes and stolen phone numbers, what begins as a PR nightmare might just become the first honest thing either of them has ever done in years.

Summary
“This has to be some kind of conflict of interest,” Regulus says, his lip curling at James.
James shrugs, the idiot, “I don’t know.” His voice is weary, tired. He even looks tired, even though he’s been sleeping all day. In fact, he looks more than just a bit tired. There are deep, dark circles under his eyes, his hair is sticking up– and not in the endearing way it usually is– but simply out of control.
He’s thinner than he used to be, and his brown skin is sallow. Regulus’ eyes catch on the two massive bandages wrapping around his arms.
Jesus fuck.
Regulus had no idea James was… no. He couldn’t do this right now. He was here (and had been for some time now) to figure his own shit out. Not to worry about James’ suicidal ideations. Not to mention, he hated James. So this whole thing? It wasn’t going to work.
___
Or: James Potter and Regulus Black end up as roommates in the same mental hospital.

Summary
Regulus Black had always been certain of one thing—he despised James Potter. Arrogant, insufferable, and unbearably perfect, Potter had everything Regulus loathed. He was Gryffindor’s Quidditch Captain, loud and reckless, and worst of all, he was Sirius’ best friend. For years, Regulus had assumed the feeling was mutual. Potter had never spared him a kind word, never passed up an opportunity to sneer at a Slytherin, and certainly never treated him as anything more than Sirius’ uptight, pureblooded little brother.
But at the start of their sixth year, Regulus was forced to confront an unsettling truth. Because James Potter wasn’t ignoring him anymore. In fact, he was looking at Regulus—a lot. And, even more confusingly, with something that wasn’t disdain. At first, Regulus thought it was some elaborate prank, but then came the casual smiles in the corridors, the insufferably charming winks during Quidditch matches, the way Potter always seemed to find a reason to be near him. It was as if, overnight, James had decided to rewrite their entire dynamic.
And Regulus Black—who prided himself on being in control, on knowing exactly where he stood—was left floundering in the wake of it.

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)

Summary
Remus is a PhD student and hobbyist baker who finds himself adrift following his father’s death. On a whim, he enters the Great British Bake Off and is swept up in a flurry of curdled custard, shrunken souffle, and under-proved dough. Remus expects to be challenged and to embarrass himself on public television. What he doesn’t account for are the friendships he develops with the other contestants and the deep connection he forms with his teenage crush, Sirius Black: charming ex-boy band member and Bake Off presenter.
or,
Sirius groans, dropping his head back into his hands. “It’s the dough,” he mumbles into the skin of his palms. “It’s the kneading. It’s his hands. They’re obscene.”
Lily laughs. “They are a bit, aren’t they?”
