    Summary

    Remus loves Sirius, and Sirius loves Remus.

    That’s just the way it is—call it a law of the universe or just the way the world works—but after four years away, Remus gets a call from Sirius asking him if he remembers a promise they made freshman year.

    And, of course, Remus remembers. How could he not?

    Something like a love story from the summer of 1978, full of Southern Cuts and Old Style, shitty motel rooms, and questionable decisions. Poor excuse for poetry and late night dancing, a trip to Vegas, and one too many honeymoon suites.

    Cherry pop rocks, too-tight pants, and a road trip across the U.S.

    Summary

    “Okay, okay. You’ll find someone to pine after soon enough, though, I’m sure.” Sirius gets up and goes to James’ overflowing chest of drawers, pulling one open to look for a more suitable pair of jeans.

    James goes back to looking in the mirror.

    “I don’t pine,” He mutters.

    ***

    British modern high school AU where James is the popular jock/ football star and Regulus is the quiet artist who couldn't be less bothered by status or popularity.

    They work on a project together. Pining ensues.

    Summary

    this countryside's burnin' with wolfmen fairies dressed in drag for homicide / they hit and run, plead sanctuary, 'neath the holy stone they hide / they're breakin' beams and crosses with a spastic's reelin' perfection / nuns run bald through Vatican halls pregnant, pleadin' immaculate conception / and everybody's wrecked on Main Street from drinking unholy blood / sticker smiles sweet as gunner breathes deep, his ankles caked in mud.

    Summary

    It’s Sirius’s day off.

    It’s his day off, and he works over a hundred hours a week, and he just wants one night without being responsible for a stranger’s life. Just one night off.

    The universe, of course, has different plans for him.

    Or: Sirius is a cardiothoracic surgeon, Remus needs heart surgery, and their lives become more entangled than Sirius would’ve ever imagined.
