Summary
‘Please?’
Eddie stops him again, this time by holding his face. Steve feels Eddie’s thumb moving over his cheek, he feels the cool metal of his rings. He feels everything except what he needs.
‘I’ve never loved anything the way I love you, Steve Harrington,’ Eddie says, dark brown eyes moving between Steve’s own. ‘This isn’t the moment, sweetheart.’
It’s not a rejection, but it’s not a kiss. Steve quietly cries, insides cut up on the broken shards of his stupid little heart and Eddie holds him, he holds him all night until they fall asleep together.

Summary
Regulus Black is a qualified neurology doctor and training to become a neurosurgeon at only 23. Having moved back to London to escape his parents after they moved to France when he was 15, Regulus is doing fine. He’s qualified, he’s already progressing his career, has a great set of friends, and is building a solid reputation as one of London’s best young doctors. He hasn’t spoken to Sirius since his older brother ran away over seven years ago and he doesn’t care, because he doesn’t speak to any of his family anymore and after all, Sirius was the one who left him behind.
And then James Potter walks in to the ward one day to give his mother some lunch, claiming that all hospital food is an abomination, and everything comfortable in Regulus’ life comes crashing down.

Summary
James Potter is given an assignment from Moody to gather intel from Regulus Black. Can James play along, or will feelings interrupt his mission?
***
James Potter has just started his sixth year at Hogwarts, but he could not be unhappier. His love life is in shambles, his best friend has made an apocalyptic mistake, and the war seems inevitable.
He is the light. He attracts and shines and burns.
Regulus Black has just started his fifth year at Hogwarts, but he could not be unhappier. His brother ran away, he is to accept the Dark Mark and is now the heir to his family's name and fortune, and the war seems inevitable.
He is the dark. He repels and scares and smothers.
But both of them have a little bit of each other - in each other. The question is what they will decide to do with it.

Summary
Remus and Sirius never reconcile after the Prank in year five because Remus is unable to get past how, in his words, “Sirius would snog him in secret and then send someone for him to kill while transformed”. After missing most of his final school years out in dangerous Order missions that culminate in Voldemort being defeated, Remus goes on to travel around and study Dark creatures with his father. Eight years after the end of the war, Remus isn't expecting to be called up by Dumbledore with a professor position for him to fill– or to find Sirius at Hogwarts as well, teaching Ancient Runes and raising Harry Potter. Surprised and a tad overwhelmed, he tries to focus on what he already has on his plate: a very sick mum, a new job and his good ole’ furry little problem. So, when old feelings sneak up on him, Remus decides not to act upon them. Or not to act upon them again.
Written for Wolfstar BigBang 2019.

Summary
There’s stardust spilling in Remus’s hair, and Sirius’s tugging on the ends of his own so harshly that it makes him wince and there’s a rabid, squirming sensation that’s slinking through Sirius’s very bones, against his very skin— a sensation that makes him want to reach over the three feet separating them and through the five months of shared history that built them together. Five months of caressing hands and devouring lips and feeling at peace for the first time in their miserable lives. Makes him want to knot their limbs together and kiss him like the world was suspended just for the pair of them again, to taste the butterscotch sweetness and half formed secrets and nicotine stained lips Sirius has always handled with the upmost reverence.
But he Can't.
OR
In which Remus and Sirius fall into one another and keep on falling.
