    Summary

    What if Voldemort went after Harry and Neville, and gave no one a chance to die for them? What if both Chosen Ones died as children?
    --
    There was no prophesied boy, but there was still this--dozens of shadowed young faces refusing to run, even at the very end of the world. Dumbledore looked out at his chess pieces, pawns and queens; his children and his friends; his collateral damage. He had the beginnings of a plan swelling in his chest.

    It would take them decades to get their hands, quietly, on every Horcrux. Tom Riddle had to think they were secret. He had to think he was safe. It would take them almost decades, but one day he would be mortal again.

    These dozens of faces--they were mortal now. Alastor Moody could feel mortality in the aches of old broken bones; Andromeda rewrote her own last name. Remus and Sirius felt empty, gaping holes in the seats around them, and they made crude, expansive, joyous toasts to friends' memories.

    When Molly first reached over and held Arthur's hand, they knew this was something that could not last. That was why they held hands, held on, held tight.

    Summary

    Sometimes your friends become your family. They make you laugh until you cry, and hype you up like it's their full time job... but mostly they keep you going when life is shit. And yea, sometimes it really is shit.

    This is a story like that. With lots of texting, cursing, and generally just trying not to drown under the weight of adulthood while their lives change over time.

    Mostly Wolfstar with a healthy dose of Darlene and Jilly
    This is going to be a long one, so buckle up folks!

    The air conditioning is already broken, Sirius's back has been effectively glued to the leather seat via sweat, and this road-trip may have been a Very Bad Idea.

    Summary

    It is a truth universally acknowledged that Mr. Sirius Black did not leave a good first impression on Remus Lupin. Yet, as conversations in candlelit ballrooms happen, Remus wonders about Mr. Black’s true nature, behind the snobbish facade.

     

    Or, two regency era idiots circle each other almost crashing together but never quite.
