“And what on god's green earth makes me the best man for that job?”
“Because you’re charming, we think he’ll like you.”

Summary
"You will not believe this, Lily" Sirius gushed immediately. "People here just expect for you to waiter their drink over to them. Like it's some grand restaurant or something. I mean, look at that dude there!" (He pointed at Remus.) "Called out his name twice and he still didn't seem to get the message. I had to walk over to give him his drink. He didn't even apologise!"
Lily stared at him with wide eyes.
"What?" Sirius asked.
"Sirius, Remus is deaf" Lily whispered.
"What?" Sirius asked.
"He can't hear" she explained.
"Yeah, I know what deaf- ooh" Sirius realised. "I fucked up, big time."

Sirius meets Remus in a pretty embarrasing situation, and quickly realises he wants to make it better. Maybe he even goes over the top, but he doesn't mind, and neither does Remus.

Summary
Remus and Sirius, Moony and Padfoot, dumb and dumber - whatever you wanted to call them, they always came as a pair.Now, Remus didn't know exactly when he fell in love with his best friend, but at some point, he did, and he'd been falling ever since.
He'd learnt how to put up with it, learnt to love Sirius from behind the glass, learnt how to waste time, until one fretful night in spring when his best friend showed up at his door, covered in blood and crying, and everything changed.the story of two losers getting into a hopeless amount of trouble with the police, with themselves, and mostly with eachother - young, dumb and full of existential dread, escapes from the law, silly boys, tiny cars, good music and falling headfirst, hopelessly in love.

Summary
When rival acquisition editors Remus Lupin and Sirius Black meet under less-than-ideal circumstances on a train to the Scottish Highlands, both pray it's a one-off encounter they'll never have to repeat.
Then they disembark in the same tiny village—both there to compete for the unpublished manuscripts of a beloved romance novelist—and realize they’re stuck in a very small world with very competing interests. What they don’t expect is to be lodged in the same cottage, sharing tea, thin walls, and an escalating amount of mortification.
Remus just wants to do his job without being patronized by the effortlessly charming man who seems to float through life on old money and good looks. Sirius just wants to prove himself without getting flayed alive by the prickly, devastatingly attractive editor who sees straight through him.
Between a meddling landlady, nosy villagers who’ve already decided they’re a couple, and the uncomfortable truth that collaboration might serve them better than competition, they’re running out of ways to keep this strictly professional.- Language:
